This function calls three functions:
- postcopy_discard_send_init(ms, block->idstr);
- postcopy_chunk_hostpages_pass(ms, block);
- postcopy_discard_send_finish(ms);
However only the 2nd function call is meaningful. It's major role is to make
sure dirty bits are applied in host-page-size granule, so there will be no
partial dirty bits set for a whole host page if huge pages are used.
The 1st/3rd call are for latter when we want to send the disgard ranges.
They're mostly no-op here besides some tracepoints (which are misleading!).
Drop them, then we can directly drop postcopy_chunk_hostpages() as a whole
because we can call postcopy_chunk_hostpages_pass() directly.
There're still some nice comments above postcopy_chunk_hostpages() that explain
what it does. Copy it over to the caller's site.

We already don't ever migrate memory that corresponds to discarded ranges
as managed by a RamDiscardManager responsible for the mapped memory region
of the RAMBlock.
virtio-mem uses this mechanism to logically unplug parts of a RAMBlock.
Right now, we still populate zeropages for the whole usable part of the
RAMBlock, which is undesired because:
1. Even populating the shared zeropage will result in memory getting
consumed for page tables.
2. Memory backends without a shared zeropage (like hugetlbfs and shmem)
will populate an actual, fresh page, resulting in an unintended
memory consumption.
Discarded ("logically unplugged") parts have to remain discarded. As
these pages are never part of the migration stream, there is no need to
track modifications via userfaultfd WP reliably for these parts.
Further, any writes to these ranges by the VM are invalid and the
behavior is undefined.
Note that Linux only supports userfaultfd WP on private anonymous memory
for now, which usually results in the shared zeropage getting populated.
The issue will become more relevant once userfaultfd WP supports shmem
and hugetlb.

Currently, when someone (i.e., the VM) accesses discarded parts inside a
RAMBlock with a RamDiscardManager managing the corresponding mapped memory
region, postcopy will request migration of the corresponding page from the
source. The source, however, will never answer, because it refuses to
migrate such pages with undefined content ("logically unplugged"): the
pages are never dirty, and get_queued_page() will consequently skip
processing these postcopy requests.
Especially reading discarded ("logically unplugged") ranges is supposed to
work in some setups (for example with current virtio-mem), although it
barely ever happens: still, not placing a page would currently stall the
VM, as it cannot make forward progress.
Let's check the state via the RamDiscardManager (the state e.g.,
of virtio-mem is migrated during precopy) and avoid sending a request
that will never get answered. Place a fresh zero page instead to keep
the VM working. This is the same behavior that would happen
automatically without userfaultfd being active, when accessing virtual
memory regions without populated pages -- "populate on demand".
For now, there are valid cases (as documented in the virtio-mem spec) where
a VM might read discarded memory; in the future, we will disallow that.
Then, we might want to handle that case differently, e.g., warning the
user that the VM seems to be mis-behaving.

We don't want to migrate memory that corresponds to discarded ranges as
managed by a RamDiscardManager responsible for the mapped memory region of
the RAMBlock. The content of these pages is essentially stale and
without any guarantees for the VM ("logically unplugged").
Depending on the underlying memory type, even reading memory might populate
memory on the source, resulting in an undesired memory consumption. Of
course, on the destination, even writing a zeropage consumes memory,
which we also want to avoid (similar to free page hinting).
Currently, virtio-mem tries achieving that goal (not migrating "unplugged"
memory that was discarded) by going via qemu_guest_free_page_hint() - but
it's hackish and incomplete.
For example, background snapshots still end up reading all memory, as
they don't do bitmap syncs. Postcopy recovery code will re-add
previously cleared bits to the dirty bitmap and migrate them.
Let's consult the RamDiscardManager after setting up our dirty bitmap
initially and when postcopy recovery code reinitializes it: clear
corresponding bits in the dirty bitmaps (e.g., of the RAMBlock and inside
KVM). It's important to fixup the dirty bitmap *after* our initial bitmap
sync, such that the corresponding dirty bits in KVM are actually cleared.
As colo is incompatible with discarding of RAM and inhibits it, we don't
have to bother.
Note: if a misbehaving guest would use discarded ranges after migration
started we would still migrate that memory: however, then we already
populated that memory on the migration source.

with Peter's fixup
Taking the mutex every time for each dirty bit to clear is too slow, especially
we'll take/release even if the dirty bit is cleared. So far it's only used to
sync with special cases with qemu_guest_free_page_hint() against migration
thread, nothing really that serious yet. Let's move the lock to be upper.
There're two callers of migration_bitmap_clear_dirty().
For migration, move it into ram_save_iterate(). With the help of MAX_WAIT
logic, we'll only run ram_save_iterate() for no more than 50ms-ish time, so
taking the lock once there at the entry. It also means any call sites to
qemu_guest_free_page_hint() can be delayed; but it should be very rare, only
during migration, and I don't see a problem with it.
For COLO, move it up to colo_flush_ram_cache(). I think COLO forgot to take
that lock even when calling ramblock_sync_dirty_bitmap(), where another example
is migration_bitmap_sync() who took it right. So let the mutex cover both the
ramblock_sync_dirty_bitmap() and migration_bitmap_clear_dirty() calls.
It's even possible to drop the lock so we use atomic operations upon rb->bmap
and the variable migration_dirty_pages. I didn't do it just to still be safe,
also not predictable whether the frequent atomic ops could bring overhead too
e.g. on huge vms when it happens very often. When that really comes, we can
keep a local counter and periodically call atomic ops. Keep it simple for now.

set, the OS will do the reservation, if supported for the memory type.
"
Allow passing it into:
- memory_region_init_ram_nomigrate()
- memory_region_init_resizeable_ram()
- memory_region_init_ram_from_file()
... and teach qemu_ram_mmap() and qemu_anon_ram_alloc() about the flag.
Bail out if the flag is not supported, which is the case right now for
both, POSIX and win32. We will add Linux support next and allow specifying
RAM_NORESERVE via memory backends.
The target use case is virtio-mem, which dynamically exposes memory

Resizing while migrating is dangerous and does not work as expected.

In the case of postcopy, relying on used_length is racy as soon as the
guest is running. Also, when used_length changes we might leave the
uffd handler registered for some memory regions, reject valid pages
when migrating and fail when sending the recv bitmap to the source.
Resizing can be trigger *after* (but not during) a reset in
ACPI code by the guest
- hw/arm/virt-acpi-build.c:acpi_ram_update()
- hw/i386/acpi-build.c:acpi_ram_update()

The bulk stage is kind of weird: migration_bitmap_find_dirty() will
indicate a dirty page, however, ram_save_host_page() will never save it, as
migration_bitmap_clear_dirty() detects that it is not dirty.
We already fill the bitmap in ram_list_init_bitmaps() with ones, marking
everything dirty - it didn't used to be that way, which is why we needed
an explicit first bulk stage.
Let's simplify: make the bitmap the single source of thuth. Explicitly
handle the "xbzrle_enabled after first round" case.
Regarding XBZRLE (implicitly handled via "ram_bulk_stage = false" right
now), there is now a slight change in behavior:
- Colo: When starting, it will be disabled (was implicitly enabled)
until the first round actually finishes.
- Free page hinting: When starting, XBZRLE will be disabled (was implicitly
enabled) until the first round actually finished.
- Snapshots: When starting, XBZRLE will be disabled. We essentially only
do a single run, so I guess it will never actually get disabled.
Postcopy seems to indirectly disable it in ram_save_page(), so there
shouldn't be really any change.

This commit solves the issue with userfault_fd WP feature that
background snapshot is based on. For any never poluated or discarded
memory page, the UFFDIO_WRITEPROTECT ioctl() would skip updating
PTE for that page, thereby loosing WP setting for it.
So we need to pre-fault pages for each RAM block to be protected
before making a userfault_fd wr-protect ioctl().

UFFD write fault processing in ram_save_iterate())

Bodged ifdef __linux__ on ram_write_tracking_prepare, should really
go in a stub
The generic 'migrate_set_parameters' command handle all types of param.
Only the QMP commands were documented in the deprecations page, but the
rationale for deprecating applies equally to HMP, and the replacements
exist. Furthermore the HMP commands are just shims to the QMP commands,
so removing the latter breaks the former unless they get re-implemented.

Replaced various qemu_mutex_lock calls and their respective
qemu_mutex_unlock calls with QEMU_LOCK_GUARD macro. This simplifies
the code by eliminating the respective qemu_mutex_unlock calls.

Postcopy may also be advised for dirty-bitmap migration only, in which
case the remote page size will not be available and we'll instead read
bogus data, blocking migration with a mismatch error if the VM uses
hugepages.

73af8dd8d7 "migration: Make xbzrle_cache_size a migration
parameter" (v2.11.0) made the new parameter unsigned (QAPI type
'size', uint64_t in C). It neglected to update existing code, which
continues to use int64_t.
migrate_xbzrle_cache_size() returns the new parameter. Adjust its
return type.
QMP query-migrate-cache-size returns migrate_xbzrle_cache_size().
Adjust its return type.
migrate-set-parameters passes the new parameter to
xbzrle_cache_resize(). Adjust its parameter type.
xbzrle_cache_resize() passes it on to cache_init(). Adjust its

In this particular implementation the same single migration
thread is responsible for both normal linear dirty page
migration and procesing UFFD page fault events.
Processing write faults includes reading UFFD file descriptor,
finding respective RAM block and saving faulting page to
the migration stream. After page has been saved, write protection
can be removed. Since asynchronous version of qemu_put_buffer()
is expected to be used to save pages, we also have to flush
migraion stream prior to un-protecting saved memory range.
Write protection is being removed for any previously protected
memory chunk that has hit the migration stream. That's valid
for pages from linear page scan along with write fault pages.
