[PATCH v4 14/25] memory: Add Error** argument to the global_dirty_log routines
Posted by Cédric Le Goater 8 months, 3 weeks ago
Now that the log_global*() handlers take an Error** parameter and
return a bool, do the same for memory_global_dirty_log_start() and
memory_global_dirty_log_stop(). The error is reported in the callers
for now and it will be propagated in the call stack in the next
changes.

To be noted a functional change in ram_init_bitmaps(), if the dirty
pages logger fails to start, there is no need to synchronize the dirty
pages bitmaps. colo_incoming_start_dirty_log() could be modified in a
similar way.

Hi, Cédric Le Goater. Could the functional modification be made
separately from the patch? And my "Reviewed-by" is attached
to the first patch that refines memory_global_dirty_log_start's
function declaration.

Are you suggesting one patch to add the Error ** parameter and a second
to report the error if there is a failure ? From the moment the prototype
is modified, all handlers need to take the change into account to avoid
a build break. Looks difficult.

OK. I should resend a v5 anyhow, I will remove your R-b and you can
reconsider.

Thanks,

Here we may need to free the bitmaps created in ram_list_init_bitmaps().

We can have a helper ram_bitmaps_destroy() for that.

One thing be careful is the new file_bmap can be created but missing in the
ram_save_cleanup(), it's because it's freed earlier.  IMHO if we will have
a new ram_bitmaps_destroy() we can unconditionally free file_bmap there
too, as if it's freed early g_free() is noop.

btw, should we use bitmap_try_new() to create the bitmaps instead of
bitmap_new() which can abort() ?

I'm not sure how much it'll help in reality; if allocation can fail here I
would expect qemu crash sooner or later.. but I agree the try_new() seems
reasonable too to be used here if this can fail now, after all migration is
extra feature on top of VM's emulation functions, so it's optional.

OK. Let's do that in a new prereq patch. I will change ram_state_init()
and xbzrle_init() to take an Error ** argument while at it.
