[Qemu-devel] [PATCH] virtio-serial: add enable_backend callback
Posted by Pavel Butsykin 8 years, 4 months ago
We should guarantee that RAM will not be modified while VM has a stopped
state, otherwise it can lead to negative consequences during post-copy
migration. In RUN_STATE_FINISH_MIGRATE step, it's expected that RAM on
source side will not be modified as this could lead to non-consistent vm state
on the destination side. Also RAM access during postcopy-ram migration with
enabled release-ram capability can lead to sad consequences.

Let's add enable_backend() callback to avoid undesirable virtioqueue changes
in the guest memory.

I think you can also factorize the code in virtconsole_realize() to call
this new function.

Why don't you register a  vm_state change handler to change the state of
the virtconsole according to the state of the machine instead of adding
a new function in the VirtIOSerialPortClass?

See a23a6d1 ("virtio-rng: stop virtqueue while the CPU is stopped")

In fact that commit does it the wrong way IMHO.

The order of this call wrt other virtio calls is not
guaranteed.

IMHO the right way is to set a vm state change handler in VirtioBusClass
or status change handler in VirtioDeviceClass.

OK, so I guess Pavel's solution is the good one as it calls his handler
from virtio-serial-bus set_status() handler which is called by
virtio_vmstate_change() function, which is registered with
qemu_add_vm_change_state_handler() by virtio_init()...

Laurent

I tried to follow the existing approach. Look at vhost_net or
virtio-input. This is similar to the hierarchical structure, we have the
root device which notifies the virtio devices at the levels above
(virtio-device -> virtio-bus -> virtio_*_device ). It ensures the
state of devices will be modified consistently, the first is a bus, then
the device on that bus. I'm not sure that following this order during
the device state changes is absolute necessity. But it looks nicer
than the registration of notifications for each device.

Although this is just a guess, I have no clear idea of how to do it
right, so I'm waiting for comments :)

guys, what was the destiny of this patch? It is a bit unclear.
Have we get into the agreement or not?

To understand the patch better this doesn't fix _all_ stopped states,
only migration, right?  That said it's a valid bugfix even independent
of the effects for stopped runstate.

Yes, the bug only appears on the migration. Actually, to protect memory 
during the migration, this approach is already used for other virtio
devices, for example net_vhost, see virtio_net_vhost_status().
