This feature allows us to minimize migration traffic # for certain work loads, by sending compressed difference of the # pages # # @rdma-pin-all: Controls whether or not the entire VM memory # footprint is mlock()'d on demand or all at once. Refer to # docs/rdma.txt for usage. Disabled by default. (since 2.0) # # @zero-blocks: During storage migration encode blocks of zeroes # efficiently. This essentially saves 1MB of zeroes per block on # the wire. Enabling requires source and target VM to support # this feature. To enable it is sufficient to enable the # capability on the source VM. The feature is disabled by default. # (since 1.6) # # @compress: Use multiple compression threads to accelerate live # migration. This feature can help to reduce the migration # traffic, by sending compressed pages. Please note that if # compress and xbzrle are both on, compress only takes effect in # the ram bulk stage, after that, it will be disabled and only # xbzrle takes effect, this can help to minimize migration # traffic. The feature is disabled by default. (since 2.4 ) # # @events: generate events for each migration state change (since 2.4 # ) # # @auto-converge: If enabled, QEMU will automatically throttle down # the guest to speed up convergence of RAM migration. (since 1.6) # # @postcopy-ram: Start executing on the migration target before all of # RAM has been migrated, pulling the remaining pages along as # needed. The capacity must have the same setting on both source # and target or migration will not even start. NOTE: If the # migration fails during postcopy the VM will fail. (since 2.6) # # @x-colo: If enabled, migration will never end, and the state of the # VM on the primary side will be migrated continuously to the VM # on secondary side, this process is called COarse-Grain LOck # Stepping (COLO) for Non-stop Service. (since 2.8) # # @release-ram: if enabled, qemu will free the migrated ram pages on # the source during postcopy-ram migration. (since 2.9) # # @block: If enabled, QEMU will also migrate the contents of all block # devices. Default is disabled. A possible alternative uses # mirror jobs to a builtin NBD server on the destination, which # offers more flexibility. (Since 2.10) # # @return-path: If enabled, migration will use the return path even # for precopy. (since 2.10) # # @pause-before-switchover: Pause outgoing migration before # serialising device state and before disabling block IO (since # 2.11) # # @multifd: Use more than one fd for migration (since 4.0) # # @dirty-bitmaps: If enabled, QEMU will migrate named dirty bitmaps. # (since 2.12) # # @postcopy-blocktime: Calculate downtime for postcopy live migration # (since 3.0) # # @late-block-activate: If enabled, the destination will not activate # block devices (and thus take locks) immediately at the end of # migration. (since 3.0) # # @x-ignore-shared: If enabled, QEMU will not migrate shared memory # that is accessible on the destination machine. (since 4.0) # # @validate-uuid: Send the UUID of the source to allow the destination # to ensure it is the same. (since 4.2) # # @background-snapshot: If enabled, the migration stream will be a # snapshot of the VM exactly at the point when the migration # procedure starts. The VM RAM is saved with running VM. (since # 6.0) # # @zero-copy-send: Controls behavior on sending memory pages on # migration. When true, enables a zero-copy mechanism for sending # memory pages, if host supports it. Requires that QEMU be # permitted to use locked memory for guest RAM pages. (since 7.1) # # @postcopy-preempt: If enabled, the migration process will allow # postcopy requests to preempt precopy stream, so postcopy # requests will be handled faster. This is a performance feature # and should not affect the correctness of postcopy migration. # (since 7.1) # # @switchover-ack: If enabled, migration will not stop the source VM # and complete the migration until an ACK is received from the # destination that it's OK to do so. Exactly when this ACK is # sent depends on the migrated devices that use this feature. For # example, a device can use it to make sure some of its data is # sent and loaded in the destination before doing switchover. # This can reduce downtime if devices that support this capability # are present. 'return-path' capability must be enabled to use # it. (since 8.1) # # @dirty-limit: If enabled, migration will throttle vCPUs as needed to # keep their dirty page rate within @vcpu-dirty-limit. This can # improve responsiveness of large guests during live migration, # and can result in more stable read performance. Requires KVM # with accelerator property "dirty-ring-size" set.

Results can be retrieved # with @query-dirty-rate after measurements are completed. # # Dirty page rate is the number of pages changed in a given time # period expressed in MiB/s. The following methods of calculation are # available: # # 1. In page sampling mode, a random subset of pages are selected and # hashed twice: once at the beginning of measurement time period, # and once again at the end. If two hashes for some page are # different, the page is counted as changed. Since this method # relies on sampling and hashing, calculated dirty page rate is # only an estimate of its true value. Increasing @sample-pages # improves estimation quality at the cost of higher computational # overhead. # # 2. Dirty bitmap mode captures writes to memory (for example by # temporarily revoking write access to all pages) and counting page # faults. Information about modified pages is collected into a # bitmap, where each bit corresponds to one guest page. This mode # requires that KVM accelerator property "dirty-ring-size" is *not* # set. # # 3. Dirty ring mode is similar to dirty bitmap mode, but the # information about modified pages is collected into ring buffer. # This mode tracks page modification per each vCPU separately. It # requires that KVM accelerator property "dirty-ring-size" is set. # # @calc-time: time period for which dirty page rate is calculated. # By default it is specified in seconds, but the unit can be set # explicitly with @calc-time-unit. Note that larger @calc-time # values will typically result in smaller dirty page rates because # page dirtying is a one-time event. Once some page is counted # as dirty during @calc-time period, further writes to this page # will not increase dirty page rate anymore. # # @calc-time-unit: time unit in which @calc-time is specified. # By default it is seconds. (Since 8.2) # # @sample-pages: number of sampled pages per each GiB of guest memory. # Default value is 512. For 4KiB guest pages this corresponds to # sampling ratio of 0.2%.
