[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/4] postcopy (& 1 test) patch for 2.7

[Dr. David Alan Gilbert (git)]

From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <address@hidden>

Hi,
  This is a small set of postcopy changes, the largest of which
is an x86 test for postcopy.

Andrea's libqtest change came about from running my test under very heavy
load.

The test includes a self contained migration workload that rapidly changes
RAM in a predictable fashion allowing us to end up in postcopy mode and
also to be able to check the contents of RAM.  Note this sometimes fails
on Linux kernels 4.5 (and current 4.6) which have a KVM+THP bug.

Dave

Andrea Arcangeli (1):
  tests: fix libqtest socket timeouts

Dr. David Alan Gilbert (3):
  Postcopy: Avoid 0 length discards
  Postcopy: Add stats on page requests
  test: Postcopy
