A few code paths exist in the source code,where a migration is
marked as failed via MIGRATION_STATUS_FAILED, but the failure happens
outside of migration.c
In such cases, an error_report() call is made, however the current
MigrationState is never updated with the error description, and hence
clients like libvirt never know the actual reason for the failure.
This patch covers such cases outside of migration.c and updates the
error description at the appropriate places.

Currently, a few code paths exist in the function vmstate_save_state_v,
which ultimately leads to a migration failure. However, an update in the
current MigrationState for the error description is never done.
vmstate.c somehow doesn't seem to allow the use of migrate_set_error due
to some dependencies for unit tests. Hence, this patch introduces a new
function vmstate_save_state_with_err, which will eventually propagate
the error message to savevm.c where a migrate_set_error call can be
eventually done.

upon migration failure it is reset multiple times, by each VFIO

For VMS_ARRAY typed vmsd fields, also dump the number of entries in the
array in -vmstate-dump.
Without such information, vmstate static checker can report false negatives
of incompatible vmsd on VMS_ARRAY typed fields, when the src/dst do not
have the same type of array defined. It's because in the checker we only
check against size of fields within a VMSD field.
One example: e1000e used to have a field defined as a boolean array with 5
entries, then removed it and replaced it with UNUSED (in 31e3f318c8):
- VMSTATE_BOOL_ARRAY(core.eitr_intr_pending, E1000EState,
- E1000E_MSIX_VEC_NUM),
+ VMSTATE_UNUSED(E1000E_MSIX_VEC_NUM),
It's a legal replacement but vmstate static checker is not happy with it,
because it checks only against the "size" field between the two
fields (here one is BOOL_ARRAY, the other is UNUSED):
For BOOL_ARRAY:
{
"field": "core.eitr_intr_pending",
"version_id": 0,
"field_exists": false,
"size": 1
},
For UNUSED:
{
"field": "unused",
"version_id": 0,
"field_exists": false,
"size": 5
},
It's not the script to blame because there's just not enough information
dumped to show the total size of the entry for an array. Add it.
Note that this will not break old vmstate checker because the field will
just be ignored.

Postcopy with preempt-mode enabled needs two channels to communicate. The
order of channel establishment is not guaranteed. It can happen that the
dest QEMU got the preempt channel connection request before the main
channel is established, then the migration may make no progress even during
precopy due to the wrong order.
To fix it, create the preempt channel only if we know the main channel is
established.
For a general postcopy migration, we delay it until postcopy_start(),
that's where we already went through some part of precopy on the main
channel. To make sure dest QEMU has already established the channel, we
wait until we got the first PONG received. That's something we do at the
start of precopy when postcopy enabled so it's guaranteed to happen sooner
or later.
For a postcopy recovery, we delay it to qemu_savevm_state_resume_prepare()
where we'll have round trips of data on bitmap synchronizations, which
means the main channel must have been established.

For virtio-mem, we want to have the plugged/unplugged state of memory
blocks available before migrating any actual RAM content, and perform
sanity checks before touching anything on the destination. This
information is immutable on the migration source while migration is active,
We want to use this information for proper preallocation support with
migration: currently, we don't preallocate memory on the migration target,
and especially with hugetlb, we can easily run out of hugetlb pages during
RAM migration and will crash (SIGBUS) instead of catching this gracefully
via preallocation.
Migrating device state via a VMSD before we start iterating is currently
impossible: the only approach that would be possible is avoiding a VMSD
and migrating state manually during save_setup(), to be restored during
load_state().
Let's allow for migrating device state via a VMSD early, during the
setup phase in qemu_savevm_state_setup(). To keep it simple, we
indicate applicable VMSD's using an "early_setup" flag.
Note that only very selected devices (i.e., ones seriously messing with
RAM setup) are supposed to make use of such early state migration.
While at it, also use a bool for the "unmigratable" member.

To allow postcopy recovery, the ram fast load (preempt-only) dest QEMU thread
needs similar handling on fault tolerance. When ram_load_postcopy() fails,
instead of stopping the thread it halts with a semaphore, preparing to be
kicked again when recovery is detected.
A mutex is introduced to make sure there's no concurrent operation upon the
socket. To make it simple, the fast ram load thread will take the mutex during
its whole procedure, and only release it if it's paused. The fast-path socket
will be properly released by the main loading thread safely when there's

Postcopy handles huge pages in a special way that currently we can only have
one "channel" to transfer the page.
It's because when we install pages using UFFDIO_COPY, we need to have the whole
huge page ready, it also means we need to have a temp huge page when trying to
receive the whole content of the page.
Currently all maintainance around this tmp page is global: firstly we'll
allocate a temp huge page, then we maintain its status mostly within
ram_load_postcopy().
To enable multiple channels for postcopy, the first thing we need to do is to
prepare N temp huge pages as caching, one for each channel.
Meanwhile we need to maintain the tmp huge page status per-channel too.
To give some example, some local variables maintained in ram_load_postcopy()
are listed; they are responsible for maintaining temp huge page status:
- all_zero: this keeps whether this huge page contains all zeros
- target_pages: this counts how many target pages have been copied
- host_page: this keeps the host ptr for the page to install
Move all these fields to be together with the temp huge pages to form a new
structure called PostcopyTmpPage. Then for each (future) postcopy channel, we
need one structure to keep the state around.
For vanilla postcopy, obviously there's only one channel. It contains both
precopy and postcopy pages.
This patch teaches the dest migration node to start realize the possible number
of postcopy channels by introducing the "postcopy_channels" variable. Its
value is calculated when setup postcopy on dest node (during POSTCOPY_LISTEN
phase).
Vanilla postcopy will have channels=1, but when postcopy-preempt capability is
enabled (in the future), we will boost it to 2 because even during partial
sending of a precopy huge page we still want to preempt it and start sending
the postcopy requested page right away (so we start to keep two temp huge
pages; more if we want to enable multifd). In this patch there's a TODO marked
for that; so far the channels is always set to 1.
We need to send one "host huge page" on one channel only and we cannot split
them, because otherwise the data upon the same huge page can locate on more
than one channel so we need more complicated logic to manage. One temp host
huge page for each channel will be enough for us for now.
Postcopy will still always use the index=0 huge page even after this patch.
However it prepares for the latter patches where it can start to use multiple
channels (which needs src intervention, because only src knows which channel we
should use).

dgilbert: Fixed up long line
Remove the old two tracepoints and they're even near each other:
trace_loadvm_postcopy_handle_run_cpu_sync()
trace_loadvm_postcopy_handle_run_vmstart()
Add trace_loadvm_postcopy_handle_run_bh() with a finer granule trace.
