Fix a segmentation fault in multifd when rb->receivedmap is cleared
too early.
After commit 5ef7e26bdb ("migration/multifd: solve zero page causing
multiple page faults"), multifd started using the rb->receivedmap
bitmap, which belongs to ram.c and is initialized and *freed* from the
ram SaveVMHandlers.
Multifd threads are live until migration_incoming_state_destroy(),
which is called after qemu_loadvm_state_cleanup(), leading to a crash
when accessing rb->receivedmap.
process_incoming_migration_co() ...
qemu_loadvm_state() multifd_nocomp_recv()
qemu_loadvm_state_cleanup() ramblock_recv_bitmap_set_offset()
rb->receivedmap = NULL set_bit_atomic(..., rb->receivedmap)
...
migration_incoming_state_destroy()
multifd_recv_cleanup()
multifd_recv_terminate_threads(NULL)
Move the loadvm cleanup into migration_incoming_state_destroy(), after
multifd_recv_cleanup() to ensure multifd threads have already exited
when rb->receivedmap is cleared.
Adjust the postcopy listen thread comment to indicate that we still
want to skip the cpu synchronization.

There are two qemu_loadvm_state_cleanup() calls that were introduced
when qemu_loadvm_state_setup() was still called before loading the
configuration section, so there was state to be cleaned up if the
header checks failed.
However, commit 9e14b84908 ("migration/savevm: load_header before
load_setup") has moved that configuration section part to
qemu_loadvm_state_header() which now happens before
qemu_loadvm_state_setup().
Remove the cleanup calls that are now misplaced.
Note that we didn't use Fixes because it's benign to cleanup() even if
setup() is not invoked. So this patch is not needed for stable, as it
falls into cleanup category.

Separate the multifd sync from flushing the client data to the
channels. These two operations are closely related but not strictly
necessary to be executed together.
The multifd sync is intrinsic to how multifd works. The multiple
channels operate independently and may finish IO out of order in
relation to each other. This applies also between the source and
destination QEMU.
Flushing the data that is left in the client-owned data structures
(e.g. MultiFDPages_t) prior to sync is usually the right thing to do,
but that is particular to how the ram migration is implemented with
several passes over dirty data.
Make these two routines separate, allowing future code to call the
sync by itself if needed. This also allows the usage of
multifd_ram_send to be isolated to ram code.

Multifd currently has a simple scheduling mechanism that distributes
work to the various channels by keeping storage space within each
channel and an extra space that is given to the client. Each time the
client fills the space with data and calls into multifd, that space is
given to the next idle channel and a free storage space is taken from
the channel and given to client for the next iteration.
This means we always need (#multifd_channels + 1) memory slots to
operate multifd.
This is fine, except that the presence of this one extra memory slot
doesn't allow different types of payloads to be processed at the same
time in different channels, i.e. the data type of
multifd_send_state->pages needs to be the same as p->pages.
For each new data type different from MultiFDPage_t that is to be
handled, this logic would need to be duplicated by adding new fields
to multifd_send_state, to the channels and to multifd_send_pages().
Fix this situation by moving the extra slot into the client and using
only the generic type MultiFDSendData in the multifd core.

Skip saving and loading any ram data in the packet in the case of a
SYNC. This fixes a shortcoming of the current code which requires a
reset of the MultiFDPages_t fields right after the previous
pending_job finishes, otherwise the very next job might be a SYNC and
multifd_send_fill_packet() will put the stale values in the packet.
By not calling multifd_ram_fill_packet(), we can stop resetting
MultiFDPages_t in the multifd core and leave that to the client code.
Actually moving the reset function is not yet done because
pages->num==0 is used by the client code to determine whether the
MultiFDPages_t needs to be flushed. The subsequent patches will
replace that with a generic flag that is not dependent on
MultiFDPages_t.

When a channel fails to create, the code currently just returns. This
is wrong for two reasons:
1) Channel n+1 will not get to initialize it's semaphores, leading to
an assert when terminate_threads tries to post to it:
qemu-system-x86_64: ../util/qemu-thread-posix.c:92:
qemu_mutex_lock_impl: Assertion `mutex->initialized' failed.
2) (theoretical) If channel n-1 already started creation it will
defeat the purpose of the channels_created logic which is in place
to avoid migrate_fd_cleanup() to run while channels are still being
created.
This cannot really happen today because the current failure cases
for multifd_new_send_channel_create() are all synchronous,
resulting from qio_channel_file_new_path() getting a bad
filename. This would hit all channels equally.
But I don't want to set a trap for future people, so have all
channels try to create (even if failing), and only fail after the
channels_created semaphore has been posted.
While here, remove the error_report_err call. There's one already at
migrate_fd_cleanup later on.

This patch adds a migration state on src called "postcopy-recover-setup".
The new state will describe the intermediate step starting from when the
src QEMU received a postcopy recovery request, until the migration channels
are properly established, but before the recovery process take place.
The request came from Libvirt where Libvirt currently rely on the migration
state events to detect migration state changes. That works for most of the
migration process but except postcopy recovery failures at the beginning.
Currently postcopy recovery only has two major states:
- postcopy-paused: this is the state that both sides of QEMU will be in
for a long time as long as the migration channel was interrupted.
- postcopy-recover: this is the state where both sides of QEMU handshake
with each other, preparing for a continuation of postcopy which used to
be interrupted.
The issue here is when the recovery port is invalid, the src QEMU will take
the URI/channels, noticing the ports are not valid, and it'll silently keep
in the postcopy-paused state, with no event sent to Libvirt. In this case,
the only thing Libvirt can do is to poll the migration status with a proper
interval, however that's less optimal.
Considering that this is the only case where Libvirt won't get a
notification from QEMU on such events, let's add postcopy-recover-setup
state to mimic what we have with the "setup" state of a newly initialized
migration, describing the phase of connection establishment.
With that, postcopy recovery will have two paths to go now, and either path
will guarantee an event generated. Now the events will look like this
during a recovery process on src QEMU:
- Initially when the recovery is initiated on src, QEMU will go from
"postcopy-paused" -> "postcopy-recover-setup". Old QEMUs don't have
this event.
- Depending on whether the channel re-establishment is succeeded:
- In succeeded case, src QEMU will move from "postcopy-recover-setup"
to "postcopy-recover". Old QEMUs also have this event.
- In failure case, src QEMU will move from "postcopy-recover-setup" to
"postcopy-paused" again. Old QEMUs don't have this event.
This guarantees that Libvirt will always receive a notification for
recovery process properly.
One thing to mention is, such new status is only needed on src QEMU not
both. On dest QEMU, the state machine doesn't change. Hence the events
don't change either. It's done like so because dest QEMU may not have an
explicit point of setup start. E.g., it can happen that when dest QEMUs
doesn't use migrate-recover command to use a new URI/channel, but the old
URI/channels can be reused in recovery, in which case the old ports simply
can work again after the network routes are fixed up.
Add a new helper postcopy_is_paused() detecting whether postcopy is still
paused, taking RECOVER_SETUP into account too. When using it on both
src/dst, a slight change is done altogether to always wait for the
semaphore before checking the status, because for both sides a sem_post()
will be required for a recovery.

Destination QEMU can setup incoming ports for two purposes: either a fresh
new incoming migration, in which QEMU will switch to SETUP for channel
establishment, or a paused postcopy migration, in which QEMU will stay in
POSTCOPY_PAUSED until kicking off the RECOVER phase.
Now the state machine worked on dest node for the latter, only because
migrate_set_state() implicitly will become a noop if the current state
check failed. It wasn't clear at all.
Clean it up by providing a helper migration_incoming_state_setup() doing
proper checks over current status. Postcopy-paused will be explicitly
checked now, and then we can bail out for unknown states.

The postcopy thread names on dest QEMU are slightly confusing, partly I'll
need to blame myself on 36f62f11e4 ("migration: Postcopy preemption
preparation on channel creation"). E.g., "fault-fast" reads like a fast
version of "fault-default", but it's actually the fast version of
"postcopy/listen".
Taking this chance, rename all the migration threads with proper rules.
Considering we only have 15 chars usable, prefix all threads with "mig/",
meanwhile identify src/dst threads properly this time. So now most thread
names will look like "mig/DIR/xxx", where DIR will be "src"/"dst", except
the bg-snapshot thread which doesn't have a direction.
For multifd threads, making them "mig/{src|dst}/{send|recv}_%d".
We used to have "live_migration" thread for a very long time, now it's
called "mig/src/main". We may hope to have "mig/dst/main" soon but not
yet.

We always do the flush when finishing one round of scan, and during
complete() phase we should scan one more round making sure no dirty page
existed. In that case we shouldn't need one explicit FLUSH at the end of
complete(), as when reaching there all pages should have been flushed.

When multifd is used along with mapped-ram, we can take benefit of a
filesystem that supports the O_DIRECT flag and perform direct I/O in
the multifd threads. This brings a significant performance improvement
because direct-io writes bypass the page cache which would otherwise
be thrashed by the multifd data which is unlikely to be needed again
in a short period of time.
To be able to use a multifd channel opened with O_DIRECT, we must
ensure that a certain aligment is used. Filesystems usually require a
block-size alignment for direct I/O. The way to achieve this is by
enabling the mapped-ram feature, which already aligns its I/O properly
(see MAPPED_RAM_FILE_OFFSET_ALIGNMENT at ram.c).
By setting O_DIRECT on the multifd channels, all writes to the same
file descriptor need to be aligned as well, even the ones that come
from outside multifd, such as the QEMUFile I/O from the main migration
code. This makes it impossible to use the same file descriptor for the
QEMUFile and for the multifd channels. The various flags and metadata
written by the main migration code will always be unaligned by virtue
of their small size. To workaround this issue, we'll require a second
file descriptor to be used exclusively for direct I/O.
The second file descriptor can be obtained by QEMU by re-opening the
migration file (already possible), or by being provided by the user or
management application (support to be added in future patches).

Add the direct-io migration parameter that tells the migration code to
use O_DIRECT when opening the migration stream file whenever possible.
This is currently only used with the mapped-ram migration that has a
clear window guaranteed to perform aligned writes.

When the "file:" migration support was added we missed the special
case in the qemu_open_old implementation that allows for a particular
file name format to be used to refer to a set of file descriptors that
have been previously provided to QEMU via the add-fd QMP command.
When using this fdset feature, we should not truncate the migration
file because being given an fd means that the management layer is in
control of the file and will likely already have some data written to
it. This is further indicated by the presence of the 'offset'
argument, which indicates the start of the region where QEMU is
allowed to write.
Fix the issue by replacing the O_TRUNC flag on open by an ftruncate
call, which will take the offset into consideration.

QPL compression and decompression will use IAA hardware path if the IAA
hardware is available. Otherwise the QPL library software path is used.
The hardware path will automatically fall back to QPL software path if
the IAA queues are busy. In some scenarios, this may happen frequently,
such as configuring 4 channels but only one IAA device is available. In
the case of insufficient IAA hardware resources, retry and fallback can
help optimize performance:
1. Retry + SW fallback:
total time: 14649 ms
downtime: 25 ms
throughput: 17666.57 mbps
pages-per-second: 1509647
2. No fallback, always wait for work queues to become available
total time: 18381 ms
downtime: 25 ms
throughput: 13698.65 mbps
pages-per-second: 859607
If both the hardware and software paths fail, the uncompressed page is
sent directly.

add the Query Processing Library (QPL) compression method
Introduce the qpl as a new multifd migration compression method, it can
use In-Memory Analytics Accelerator(IAA) to accelerate compression and
decompression, which can not only reduce network bandwidth requirement
but also reduce host compression and decompression CPU overhead.
How to enable qpl compression during migration:
migrate_set_parameter multifd-compression qpl
There is no qpl compression level parameter added since it only supports
level one, users do not need to specify the qpl compression level.
