2017-02-13migration: Add VMSTATE_WITH_TMPDr. David Alan Gilbert1-0/+40
VMSTATE_WITH_TMP is for handling structures where some calculation or rearrangement of the data needs to be performed before the data hits the wire. For example, where the value on the wire is an offset from a non-migrated base, but the data in the structure is the actual pointer. To use it, a temporary type is created and a vmsd used on that type. The first element of the type must be 'parent' a pointer back to the type of the main structure. VMSTATE_WITH_TMP takes care of allocating and freeing the temporary before running the child vmsd. The post_load/pre_save on the child vmsd can copy things from the parent to the temporary using the parent pointer and do any other calculations needed; it can then use normal VMSD entries to do the actual data storage without having to fiddle around with qemu_get_*/qemu_put_* Signed-off-by: Dr. David Alan Gilbert <dgilbert@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Reviewed-by: Juan Quintela <quintela@redhat.com> Message-Id: <20170203160651.19917-3-dgilbert@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Dr. David Alan Gilbert <dgilbert@redhat.com>
2017-02-13migration: consolidate VMStateField.startHalil Pasic1-2/+2
The member VMStateField.start is used for two things, partial data migration for VBUFFER data (basically provide migration for a sub-buffer) and for locating next in QTAILQ. The implementation of the VBUFFER feature is broken when VMSTATE_ALLOC is used. This however goes unnoticed because actually partial migration for VBUFFER is not used at all. Let's consolidate the usage of VMStateField.start by removing support for partial migration for VBUFFER.

2017-01-24migration/tracing: Add tracing on saveDr. David Alan Gilbert1-5/+10
Add some tracing to vmstate_subsection_save and vmstate_save_state to help in debugging when you're not sure if a conditional piece of data is being saved. In vmstate_subsection_save I renamed the inner vmsd to avoid the aliasing and be able to print both names.

2017-01-24migration: migrate QTAILQJianjun Duan1-0/+69
Currently we cannot directly transfer a QTAILQ instance because of the limitation in the migration code. Here we introduce an approach to transfer such structures. We created VMStateInfo vmstate_info_qtailq for QTAILQ. Similar VMStateInfo can be created for other data structures such as list. When a QTAILQ is migrated from source to target, it is appended to the corresponding QTAILQ structure, which is assumed to have been properly initialized. This approach will be used to transfer pending_events and ccs_list in spapr state. We also create some macros in qemu/queue.h to access a QTAILQ using pointer arithmetic. This ensures that we do not depend on the implementation details about QTAILQ in the migration code.

Current migration code cannot handle some data structures such as QTAILQ in qemu/queue.h.

A couple of improvements to tracing that have come out of helping people with migration problems: * vmstate_n_elems trace the count/name - for when you have problems getting array counts right * vmstate_subsection_load_bad - add the idstr, for when you receive a subsection you weren't expecting.

2016-05-23migration: Move qjson.[ch] to migration/Markus Armbruster1-1/+0
Type QJSON lets you build JSON text. Its interface mirrors (a subset of) abstract JSON syntax. QAPI output visitors also produce JSON text. They assert their preconditions and invariants, and therefore abort on incorrect use. Contrastingly, QJSON does *not* detect incorrect use. It happily produces invalid JSON then. This is what migration wants. QJSON was designed for migration, and migration is its only user. Move it to migration/ for proper coverage by MAINTAINERS, and to deter accidental use outside migration.

2015-06-12migration: Use normal VMStateDescriptions for SubsectionsJuan Quintela1-8/+8
We create optional sections with this patch. But we already have optional subsections. Instead of having two mechanism that do the same, we can just generalize it. For subsections we just change: - Add a needed function to VMStateDescription - Remove VMStateSubsection (after removal of the needed function it is just a VMStateDescription) - Adjust the whole tree, moving the needed function to the corresponding VMStateDescription Signed-off-by: Juan Quintela <quintela@redhat.com>
2015-02-05migration: Append JSON description of migration streamAlexander Graf1-6/+180
One of the annoyances of the current migration format is the fact that it's not self-describing. In fact, it's not properly describing at all. Some code randomly scattered throughout QEMU elaborates roughly how to read and write a stream of bytes. We discussed an idea during KVM Forum 2013 to add a JSON description of the migration protocol itself to the migration stream. This patch adds a section after the VM_END migration end marker that contains description data on what the device sections of the stream are composed of. This approach is backwards compatible with any QEMU version reading the stream, because QEMU just stops reading after the VM_END marker and ignores any data following it. With an additional external program this allows us to decipher the contents of any migration stream and hopefully make migration bugs easier to track down.

2014-12-16Start migrating migration code into a migration directoryDr. David Alan Gilbert1-0/+687
The migration code now occupies a fair chunk of the top level .c files, it seems time to give it it's own directory. I've not touched: arch_init.c - that's mostly RAM migration but has a few random other bits savevm.c - because it's built target specific This is purely a code move; no code has changed. - it fails checkpatch because of old violations, it feels safer to keep this as purely a move and fix those at some mythical future date. The xbzrle and vmstate tests are now only run for softmmu builds since they require files in the migrate/ directory which is only built for softmmu.
