[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] migration: isolate return path on src
Posted by Peter Xu 6 years, 10 months ago
There are some places that binded "return path" with postcopy. Let's be
prepared for its usage even without postcopy. This patch mainly did this
on source side.

Signed-off-by: Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com>
---
standalone patch isolated from the return path series. ok to be picked
up in case one day we'll re-face the return path enablement.
With it, we are ready on source side. The dst side change has been queued.

I'm confused.
The migration_thread on the source will always have a s->to_dst_file
there so why test?

But also, we can't send the 'open return path' and 'send ping' messages
without a guard; sending them to old QEMUs will cause them to fail when
they don't know what the message is.   I suspect sending them to
slightly-old QEMUs will cause them to fail when they try and send a 
return message if the destination can't send it.

I can see a  if (s->rp_state.from_dst_file) making some sense if it's
done at the right point.

You are right.

Second chunk makes no sense.  I told Peter to split the
"objectification" of migration state and this patch.  This made more
sense when the user *had* required a return path.

Good catch.

Thanks, Juan.

Oops! I believe it should be what Dave mentioned
(s->rp_state.from_dst_file rather than s->to_dst_file). Sorry!

I'll repost to see whether we'd like the new one. Thanks,
