Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH for-2.8 1/3] migration: alternative way to set instance_id in SaveStateEntry
Date: Thu, 17 Nov 2016 19:40:25 -0600

From: Jianjun Duan <address@hidden>

Currently migrated Devices are identified with an idstr which is
calculated automatically using their path in the QOM composition
tree. In some cases these Devices may have a more reliable
identifier that may be preferable in situations where there's a
chance their path in the composition tree might change in the
future as a resulting of changes in how the device is modeled
in QEMU.

One such Device is the "spapr-dr-connector" used to handle hotplug
for various resources on pseries machine types, where the PAPR
specification mandates that each DRC have a 32-bit globally unique
identifier associated with it. As such, this identifier is also ideal
as a reliable way to identify a particular DRC in the migration
stream, so we introduce support here for using a caller-side supplied
instance_id for Devices in preparation for that.

register_savevm_live() and vmstate_register_with_alias_id() already
provide a means to let the caller supply an instance_id instead of
relying on the migration subsystem to generate one automatically,
but in cases where we're registering SaveVMHandlers or VMSDs
(respectively) that are associated with a Device, the instance_id is
ignored in favor of a string identifier based solely on the QOM path.

This patch generalizes this so that an instance_id can also be
supplied by the caller for Devices. Since VMSD registration for
Devices is generally handled automatically by qdev, we also introduce
a DeviceClass->dev_get_instance_id() method that, when set, is called
by qdev to obtain the corresponding instance_id that should be used
for a particular Device. Otherwise we maintain the original behavior
of passing instance_id == -1 and thus falling back to the previous
logic of using the QOM path.

* moved usage of DeviceClass->dev_get_instance_id() out of savevm.c
  and into caller (qdev) instead
* clarified usage/intent in comments and commit msg
