[PATCH V8 00/12] fix migration of suspended runstate


From: Steve Sistare
Subject: [PATCH V8 00/12] fix migration of suspended runstate
Date: Wed, 13 Dec 2023 07:30:09 -0800

Migration of a guest in the suspended runstate is broken.  The incoming
migration code automatically tries to wake the guest, which is wrong;
the guest should end migration in the same runstate it started.  Further,
after saving a snapshot in the suspended state and loading it, the vm_start
fails.  The runstate is RUNNING, but the guest is not.

See the commit messages for the details.

Changes in V2:
  * simplify "start on wakeup request"
  * fix postcopy, snapshot, and background migration
  * refactor fixes for each type of migration
  * explicitly handled suspended events and runstate in tests
  * add test for postcopy and background migration

Changes in V3:
  * rebase to tip
  * fix hang in new function migrate_wait_for_dirty_mem

Changes in V4:
  * rebase to tip
  * add patch for vm_prepare_start (thanks Peter)
  * add patch to preserve cpu ticks

Changes in V5:
  * rebase to tip
  * added patches to completely stop vm in suspended state:
      cpus: refactor vm_stop
      cpus: stop vm in suspended state
  * added patch to partially resume vm in suspended state:
      cpus: start vm in suspended state
  * modified "preserve suspended ..." patches to use the above.
  * deleted patch "preserve cpu ticks if suspended".  stop ticks in
    vm_stop_force_state instead.
  * deleted patch "add runstate function".  defined new helper function
    migrate_new_runstate in "preserve suspended runstate"
  * Added some RB's, but removed other RB's because the patches changed.

Changes in V6:
  * all vm_stop calls completely stop the suspended state
  * refactored and updated the "cpus" patches
  * simplified the "preserve suspended" patches
  * added patch "bootfile per vm"

Changes in V7:
  * rebase to tip, add RB-s
  * fix backwards compatibility for global_state.vm_was_suspended
  * delete vm_prepare_start state argument, and rename patch
    "pass runstate to vm_prepare_start" to
    "check running not RUN_STATE_RUNNING"
  * drop patches:
      tests/qtest: bootfile per vm
      tests/qtest: background migration with suspend
  * rename runstate_is_started to runstate_is_live
  * move wait_for_suspend in tests

Changes in V8:
  * rebase to tip
  * add RB's
  * add comment for runstate_is_live
  * simplify global_state - the needed function, and its use of vm_was_suspended
