[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v4 00/22] vhost-user: add migration support

[marcandre . lureau]

From: Marc-André Lureau <address@hidden>

Hi,

The following series implement shareable log for vhost-user to support
memory tracking during live migration. On qemu-side, the solution is
fairly straightfoward since vhost already supports the dirty log, only
vhost-user couldn't access the log memory until then.

The series includes "protocol feature negotiation" series proposed
earlier by Michael S. Tsirkinm and "vhost user: Add live migration"
series from Thibaut Collet .

v3->v4:
- add the proto negotiation & the migration series
- replace the varargs vhost_call() approach for callbacks
- only share-allocate when the backend needs it

v2->v3:
- changed some patch summary
- added migration tests
- added a patch to replace error message with a trace

The development branch I used is:
https://github.com/elmarco/qemu branch "vhost-user"

Marc-André Lureau (17):
  configure: probe for memfd
  util: add linux-only memfd fallback
  util: add memfd helpers
  vhost: alloc shareable log
  vhost: document log resizing
  vhost: use a function for each call
  vhost-user: remove vhost_user_request_translate()
  vhost-user: send log shm fd along with log_base
  vhost: only use shared log if in use by backend
  vhost-user: document migration log
  net: add trace_vhost_user_event
  vhost-user-test: move wait_for_fds() out
  vhost-user-test: remove useless static check
  vhost-user-test: wrap server in TestServer struct
  vhost-user-test: learn to tweak various qemu arguments
  vhost-user-test: add live-migration test
  vhost-user-test: check ownership during migration

Michael S. Tsirkin (3):
  vhost-user: refactor ioctl translation
  vhost-user: add protocol feature negotiation
  vhost-user: unit test for new messages

Thibaut Collet (2):
  vhost user: add support of live migration
  vhost user: add rarp sending after live migration for legacy guest
