[PATCH RFC 4/9] KVM: Create the KVMSlot dirty bitmap on flag changes
Posted by Peter Xu 6 years ago
Previously we have two places that will create the per KVMSlot dirty
bitmap:

  1. When a newly created KVMSlot has dirty logging enabled,
  2. When the first log_sync() happens for a memory slot.

The 2nd case is lazy-init, while the 1st case is not (which is a fix
of what the 2nd case missed).

To do explicit initialization of dirty bitmaps, what we're missing is
to create the dirty bitmap when the slot changed from not-dirty-track
to dirty-track.  Do that in kvm_slot_update_flags().

With that, we can safely remove the 2nd lazy-init.

This change will be needed for kvm dirty ring because kvm dirty ring
does not use the log_sync() interface at all.

Since at it, move all the pre-checks into kvm_slot_init_dirty_bitmap().
