This capability allows you to disable dynamic chunk registration
for better throughput on high-performance links.
For example, using an 8GB RAM virtual machine with all 8GB of memory in
active use and the VM itself is completely idle using a 40 gbps infiniband link:
1. x-rdma-pin-all disabled total time: approximately 7.5 seconds @ 9.5 Gbps
2. x-rdma-pin-all enabled total time: approximately 4 seconds @ 26 Gbps
These numbers would of course scale up to whatever size virtual machine
you have to migrate using RDMA.
Enabling this feature does *not* have any measurable affect on
migration *downtime*. This is because, without this feature, all of the
memory will have already been registered already in advance during
the bulk round and does not need to be re-registered during the successive
iteration rounds.

This makes it possible to do blocking writes directly to the socket,
with no buffer in the middle. For RAM, only the migration_bitmap_sync()
call needs the iothread lock. For block migration, it is needed by
the block layer (including bdrv_drain_all and dirty bitmap access),
but because some code is shared between iterate and complete, all of
mig_save_device_dirty is run with the lock taken.
In the savevm case, the iterate callback runs within the big lock.
This is annoying because it complicates the rules. Luckily we do not
need to do anything about it: the RAM iterate callback does not need
the iothread lock, and block migration never runs during savevm.

Right now, migration cannot entirely rely on QEMUFile's automatic
drop of I/O after an error, because it does its "real" I/O outside
the put_buffer callback. To fix this until buffering is gone, expose
qemu_file_set_error which we will use in buffered_flush.
Similarly, buffered_flush is not a complete flush because some data may
still reside in the QEMUFile's own buffer. This somewhat complicates the
process of closing the migration thread. Again, when buffering is gone
buffered_flush will disappear and calling qemu_fflush will not be needed;
in the meanwhile, we expose the function for use in migration.c.

Code just now does (simplified for clarity)
if (qemu_savevm_state_iterate(s->file) == 1) {
vm_stop_force_state(RUN_STATE_FINISH_MIGRATE);
qemu_savevm_state_complete(s->file);
}
Problem here is that qemu_savevm_state_iterate() returns 1 when it
knows that remaining memory to sent takes less than max downtime.
But this means that we could end spending 2x max_downtime, one
downtime in qemu_savevm_iterate, and the other in
qemu_savevm_state_complete.
Changed code to:
pending_size = qemu_savevm_state_pending(s->file, max_size);
DPRINTF("pending size %lu max %lu\n", pending_size, max_size);
if (pending_size >= max_size) {
ret = qemu_savevm_state_iterate(s->file);
} else {
vm_stop_force_state(RUN_STATE_FINISH_MIGRATE);
qemu_savevm_state_complete(s->file);
}
So what we do is: at current network speed, we calculate the maximum
number of bytes we can sent: max_size.
Then we ask every save_live section how much they have pending. If
they are less than max_size, we move to complete phase, otherwise we
do an iterate one.
This makes things much simpler, because now individual sections don't
have to caluclate the bandwidth (it was implossible to do right from
there).
