charset="utf-8" From: Peter Xu Firstly, postcopy already preempts precopy due to the fact that we do unqueue_page() first before looking into dirty bits. However that's not enough, e.g., when there're host huge page enabled, when sending a precopy huge page, a postcopy request needs to wait until the who= le huge page that is sending to finish. That could introduce quite some delay, the bigger the huge page is the larger delay it'll bring. This patch adds a new capability to allow postcopy requests to preempt exis= ting precopy page during sending a huge page, so that postcopy requests can be serviced even faster. Meanwhile to send it even faster, bypass the precopy stream by providing a standalone postcopy socket for sending requested pages. Since the new behavior will not be compatible with the old behavior, this w= ill not be the default, it's enabled only when the new capability is set on both src/dst QEMUs. This patch only adds the capability itself, the logic will be added in foll= ow up patches.
