Re: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] virtio/vhost: reset dev->log after syncing

[Marc-André Lureau]

----- Original Message -----
> vhost_log_put() is called to decomission the dirty log between qemu and
> a vhost device when stopping the device. Such a call can happen from
> migration_completion().
> 
> Present code sets dev->log_size to zero too early in vhost_log_put(),
> causing the sync check to always return false. As a consequence, the
> last pass on the dirty bitmap never happens at the end of migration.
> 
> If a vhost device was busy (writing to guest memory) until the last
> moments before vhost_virtqueue_stop(), this error will result in guest
> memory corruption (at least) following migrations.
