[PATCH v3 0/8] migration: Postcopy cleanup on ram disgard
Posted by Peter Xu 2 years, 4 months ago
v3:
- s/disgard/discard/, s/exit/return/ [DavidE]

v2:
- add r-bs for Dave
- move mig_cmd_args reference later than index bound check [Dave]
- use chars in tracepoints instead of number of steps [Dave]
- add one patch for postcopy-run tracing

Some queued patches for ram disgard cleanup, and some debug probes.

QEMU's ram disgard logic is probably a bit hard to predict because we send a
bunch of packets to notify the disgarded ranges rather than sending the bitmap.
The packets to send depending on the bitmap layout.

Initially I thought it could be a problem but in reality it's fine so far per
my initial measurement.  So I'm flushing the cleanup/trace patches out because
I think they're still helpful.

Please have a look, thanks.
