[PULL 01/18] migration/ram.c: Remove the qemu_mutex_lock in colo_flush_ram_cache.
Posted by Juan Quintela 4 years, 1 month ago
From: "Rao, Lei" <lei.rao@intel.com>

The code to acquire bitmap_mutex is added in the commit of
"63268c4970a5f126cc9af75f3ccb8057abef5ec0". There is no
need to acquire bitmap_mutex in colo_flush_ram_cache(). This
is because the colo_flush_ram_cache only be called on the COLO
secondary VM, which is the destination side.
On the COLO secondary VM, only the COLO thread will touch
the bitmap of ram cache.
