[Straightforward conflict with commit 442110bc6f resolved]
These examples require longer explanations or have explanations that
require markup to look reasonable when rendered and so use the longer
form of the ".. qmp-example::" directive.
By using the :annotated: option, the content in the example block is
assumed *not* to be a code block literal and is instead parsed as normal
rST - with the exception that any code literal blocks after `::` will
assumed to be a QMP code literal block.
Note: There's one title-less conversion in this patch that comes along
for the ride because it's part of a larger "Examples" block that was
better to convert all at once.

When an Example section has a brief explanation, convert it to a
qmp-example:: section using the :title: option.
Rule of thumb: If the title can fit on a single line and requires no rST
markup, it's a good candidate for using the :title: option of
qmp-example.
In this patch, trailing punctuation is removed from the title section
for consistent headline aesthetics. In just one case, specifics of the

[Markup fixed in one place]
Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com>
We do not need a dedicated section for notes. By eliminating a specially
parsed section, these notes can be treated as normal rST paragraphs in
the new QMP reference manual, and can be placed and styled much more
flexibly.
Convert all existing "Note" and "Notes" sections to pure rST. As part of
the conversion, capitalize the first letter of each sentence and add
trailing punctuation where appropriate to ensure notes look sensible and
consistent in rendered HTML documentation. Markup is also re-aligned to
the de-facto standard of 3 spaces for directives.
Update docs/devel/qapi-code-gen.rst to reflect the new paradigm, and
update the QAPI parser to prohibit "Note" sections while suggesting a
new syntax. The exact formatting to use is a matter of taste, but a good
candidate is simply:
.. note:: lorem ipsum ...
... dolor sit amet ...
... consectetur adipiscing elit ...
... but there are other choices, too. The Sphinx readthedocs theme
offers theming for the following forms (capitalization unimportant); all
are adorned with a (!) symbol () in the title bar for rendered HTML
docs.
See
https://sphinx-rtd-theme.readthedocs.io/en/stable/demo/demo.html#admonitions
for examples of each directive/admonition in use.
These are rendered in orange:
.. Attention:: ...
.. Caution:: ...
.. WARNING:: ...

.. DANGER:: ...
.. Error:: ...
These are rendered in green:
.. Hint:: ...
.. Important:: ...
.. Tip:: ...
These are rendered in blue:
.. Note:: ...
.. admonition:: custom title
admonition body text
This patch uses ".. note::" almost everywhere, with just two "caution"
directives. Several instances of "Notes:" have been converted to
merely ".. note::", or multiple ".. note::" where appropriate.
".. admonition:: notes" is used in a few places where we had an
ordered list of multiple notes that would not make sense as
standalone/separate admonitions. Two "Note:" following "Example:"
have been turned into ordinary paragraphs within the example.
NOTE: Because qapidoc.py does not attempt to preserve source ordering of
sections, the conversion of Notes from a "tagged section" to an
"untagged section" means that rendering order for some notes *may
change* as a result of this patch. The forthcoming qapidoc.py rewrite
strictly preserves source ordering in the rendered documentation, so
this issue will be rectified in the new generator.

The new QMP documentation generator wants to parse all examples as
"QMP". We have an existing QMP lexer in docs/sphinx/qmp_lexer.py (Seen
in-use here: https://qemu-project.gitlab.io/qemu/interop/bitmaps.html)
that allows the use of "->", "<-" and "..." tokens to denote QMP
protocol flow with elisions, but otherwise defers to the JSON lexer.
To utilize this lexer for the existing QAPI documentation, we need them
to conform to a standard so that they lex and render correctly. Once the
QMP lexer is active for examples, errant QMP/JSON will produce warning
messages and fail the build.
Fix any invalid JSON found in QAPI documentation (identified by
attempting to lex all examples as QMP; see subsequent
commits). Additionally, elisions must be standardized for the QMP lexer;
they must be represented as the value "...", so three examples have been
adjusted to support that format here.

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.

Add a new migration capability 'mapped-ram'.
The core of the feature is to ensure that RAM pages are mapped
directly to offsets in the resulting migration file instead of being
streamed at arbitrary points.
The reasons why we'd want such behavior are:
- The resulting file will have a bounded size, since pages which are
dirtied multiple times will always go to a fixed location in the
file, rather than constantly being added to a sequential
stream. This eliminates cases where a VM with, say, 1G of RAM can
result in a migration file that's 10s of GBs, provided that the
workload constantly redirties memory.
- It paves the way to implement O_DIRECT-enabled save/restore of the
migration stream as the pages are ensured to be written at aligned
offsets.
- It allows the usage of multifd so we can write RAM pages to the
migration file in parallel.
For now, enabling the capability has no effect. The next couple of
patches implement the core functionality.

The existing argument of 'migrate' and 'migrate-incoming' QAPI
- 'uri' is of type string. The current implementation follows
double encoding scheme for fetching migration parameters like

Motive for intoducing struct level design is to prevent double

use the QAPI arguments without any level of encoding.

(qemu) info status
VM status: running
In this mode, the migrate command saves state to a file, allowing one
to quit qemu, reboot to an updated kernel, and restart an updated version
of qemu. The caller must specify a migration URI that writes to and reads
from a file. Unlike normal mode, the use of certain local storage options
does not block the migration, but the caller must not modify guest block
devices between the quit and restart. To avoid saving guest RAM to the
file, the memory backend must be shared, and the @x-ignore-shared migration
capability must be set. Guest RAM must be non-volatile across reboot, such
as by backing it with a dax device, but this is not enforced. The restarted
qemu arguments must match those used to initially start qemu, plus the
-incoming option.

Create a mode migration parameter that can be used to select alternate
migration algorithms. The default mode is normal, representing the
current migration algorithm, and does not need to be explicitly set.
No functional change until a new mode is added, except that the mode is
shown by the 'info migrate' command.

It is obsolete. It is better to use driver-mirror with NBD instead.
