Postcopy detects accesses to pages that haven't been transferred yet
using userfaultfd, and it causes exceptions on pages that are 'not
present'.
Ballooning also causes pages to be marked as 'not present' when the
guest inflates the balloon.
Potentially a balloon could be inflated to discard pages that are
currently inflight during postcopy and that may be arriving at about
the same time.
To avoid this confusion, disable ballooning during postcopy.
When disabled we drop balloon requests from the guest. Since ballooning
is generally initiated by the host, the management system should avoid
initiating any balloon instructions to the guest during migration,
although it's not possible to know how long it would take a guest to
process a request made prior to the start of migration.
Guest initiated ballooning will not know if it's really freed a page
of host memory or not.
Queueing the requests until after migration would be nice, but is
non-trivial, since the set of inflate/deflate requests have to
be compared with the state of the page to know what the final
outcome is allowed to be.

Excessive virtio_balloon inflation can cause invocation of OOM-killer,
when Linux is under severe memory pressure. Various mechanisms are
responsible for correct virtio_balloon memory management. Nevertheless it
is often the case that these control tools does not have enough time to
react on fast changing memory load. As a result OS runs out of memory and
invokes OOM-killer. The balancing of memory by use of the virtio balloon
should not cause the termination of processes while there are pages in the
balloon. Now there is no way for virtio balloon driver to free memory at
the last moment before some process get killed by OOM-killer.
This does not provide a security breach as balloon itself is running
inside Guest OS and is working in the cooperation with the host. Thus
some improvements from Guest side should be considered as normal.
To solve the problem, introduce a virtio_balloon callback which is
expected to be called from the oom notifier call chain in out_of_memory()
function. If virtio balloon could release some memory, it will make the
system return and retry the allocation that forced the out of memory
killer to run.
This behavior should be enabled if and only if appropriate feature bit
is set on the device. It is off by default.
This functionality was recently merged into vanilla Linux.

When do memory balloon, it takes the 'ram_size' as the VM's current ram size,
But 'ram_size' is the startup configured ram size, it does not take into
account the hotplugged memory.
As a result, the balloon result will be confused.
Steps to reproduce:
(1)Start VM: qemu -m size=1024,slots=4,maxmem=8G
(2)In VM: #free -m : 1024M
(3)qmp balloon 512M
(4)In VM: #free -m : 512M
(5)hotplug pc-dimm 1G
(6)In VM: #free -m : 1512M
(7)qmp balloon 256M
(8)In VM: #free -m :1256M
We expect the VM's available ram size to be 256M after 'qmp balloon 256M'
command, but VM's real available ram size is 1256M.
For "qmp balloon" is not performance critical code, we use function
'get_current_ram_size' to get VM's current ram size.

When a QMP client changes the polling interval time by setting
the guest-stats-polling-interval property, the interval value
is stored and manipulated as an int64_t variable.
However, the balloon_stats_change_timer() function, which is
used to set the actual timer with the interval value, takes
an int instead, causing an overflow for big interval values.
This commit fix this bug by changing balloon_stats_change_timer()
to take an int64_t and also it limits the polling interval value
to UINT_MAX to avoid other kinds of overflow.

We commonly use the error API like this:
err = NULL;
foo(..., &err);
if (err) {
goto out;
}
bar(..., &err);
Every error source is checked separately. The second function is only
called when the first one succeeds. Both functions are free to pass
their argument to error_set(). Because error_set() asserts no error
has been set, this effectively means they must not be called with an
error set.
The qapi-generated code uses the error API differently:
// *errp was initialized to NULL somewhere up the call chain
frob(..., errp);
gnat(..., errp);
Errors accumulate in *errp: first error wins, subsequent errors get
dropped. To make this work, the second function does nothing when
called with an error set. Requires non-null errp, or else the second
function can't see the first one fail.
This usage has also bled into visitor tests, and two device model
object property getters rtc_get_date() and balloon_stats_get_all().
With the "accumulate" technique, you need fewer error checks in
callers, and buy that with an error check in every callee. Can be
nice.
However, mixing the two techniques is confusing. You can't use the
"accumulate" technique with functions designed for the "check
separately" technique. You can use the "check separately" technique
with functions designed for the "accumulate" technique, but then
error_set() can't catch you setting an error more than once.
Standardize on the "check separately" technique for now, because it's
overwhelmingly prevalent.

Using error_is_set(ERRP) to find out whether a function failed is
either wrong, fragile, or unnecessarily opaque. It's wrong when ERRP
may be null, because errors go undetected when it is. It's fragile
when proving ERRP non-null involves a non-local argument. Else, it's
unnecessarily opaque (see commit 84d18f0).
I guess the error_is_set(errp) in the ObjectProperty set() methods are
merely fragile right now, because I can't find a call chain that
passes a null errp argument.
Make the code more robust and more obviously correct: receive the
error in a local variable, then propagate it through the parameter.
