Current logic assumes that channel connections on the destination side are
always established in the same order as the source and the first one will
always be the main channel followed by the multifid or post-copy
preemption channel. This may not be always true, as even if a channel has a
connection established on the source side it can be in the pending state on
the destination side and a newer connection can be established first.
Basically causing out of order mapping of channels on the destination side.
Currently, all channels except post-copy preempt send a magic number, this
patch uses that magic number to decide the type of channel. This logic is
applicable only for precopy(multifd) live migration, as mentioned, the
post-copy preempt channel does not send any magic number. Also, tls live
migrations already does tls handshake before creating other channels, so
this issue is not possible with tls, hence this logic is avoided for tls
live migrations. This patch uses read peek to check the magic number of
channels so that current data/control stream management remains
un-effected.

The value of "Sample Pages" is confusing in mode other than page-sampling.

-1 and QIO_CHANNEL_ERR_BLOCK should be returned upon error. Other

error_setg is used rather than error_setg_errno, because there are

before RAM)
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.

Let's move more code into vmstate_save(), reducing code duplication and
preparing for reuse of vmstate_save() in qemu_savevm_state_setup(). We
have to move vmstate_save() to make the compiler happy.
We'll now also trace from qemu_save_device_state(), triggering the same
tracepoints as previously called from
qemu_savevm_state_complete_precopy_non_iterable() only. Note that
qemu_save_device_state() ignores iterable device state, such as RAM,
and consequently doesn't trigger some other trace points (e.g.,
trace_savevm_state_setup()).

ram_block_populate_read() already optimizes for RamDiscardManager.
However, ram_write_tracking_start() will still try protecting discarded
memory ranges.
Let's optimize, because discarded ranges don't map any pages and
(1) For anonymous memory, trying to protect using uffd-wp without a mapped
page is ignored by the kernel and consequently a NOP.
(2) For shared/file-backed memory, we will fill present page tables in the
range with PTE markers. However, we will even allocate page tables
just to fill them with unnecessary PTE markers and effectively
waste memory.
So let's exclude these ranges, just like ram_block_populate_read()
already does.

ram_mig_ram_block_resized() will abort migration (including background
snapshots) when resizing a RAMBlock. ram_block_populate_read() will only
populate RAM up to used_length, so at least for anonymous memory
protecting everything between used_length and max_length won't
actually be protected and is just a NOP.
So let's only protect everything up to used_length.
Note: it still makes sense to register uffd-wp for max_length, such
that RAM_UF_WRITEPROTECT is independent of a changing used_length.

When unregistering uffd-wp, older kernels before commit f369b07c86143
("mm/uffd:reset write protection when unregister with wp-mode") won't
clear the uffd-wp PTE bit. When re-registering uffd-wp, the previous
uffd-wp PTE bits would trigger again. With above commit, the kernel will
clear the uffd-wp PTE bits when unregistering itself.
Consequently, we'll clear the uffd-wp PTE bits now twice -- whereby we
don't care about clearing them at all: a new background snapshot will
re-register uffd-wp and re-protect all memory either way.
So let's skip the manual clearing of uffd-wp. If ever relevant, we
could clear conditionally in uffd_unregister_memory() -- we just need a
way to figure out more recent kernels.

If something goes wrong during uffd_change_protection(), we would miss

Note that a uffd_change_protection(false) on the recovery path without a
prior uffd_change_protection(false) is fine.

Commit d9e474ea56 overlooked the case where the target psize is even larger
than the host psize. One example is Alpha has 8K page size and migration
will start to crash the source QEMU when running Alpha migration on x86.
Fix it by detecting that case and set host start/end just to cover the
single page to be migrated.
This will slightly optimize the common case where host psize equals to
guest psize so we don't even need to do the roundups, but that's trivial.

Now with rs->pss we can already cache channels in pss->pss_channels. That
pss_channel contains more infromation than rs->f because it's per-channel.
So rs->f could be replaced by rss->pss[RAM_CHANNEL_PRECOPY].pss_channel,
while rs->f itself is a bit vague now.
Note that vanilla postcopy still send pages via pss[RAM_CHANNEL_PRECOPY],
that's slightly confusing but it reflects the reality.
Then, after the replacement we can safely drop rs->f.

With the new code to send pages in rp-return thread, there's little help to
keep lots of the old code on maintaining the preempt state in migration
thread, because the new way should always be faster..
Then if we'll always send pages in the rp-return thread anyway, we don't
need those logic to maintain preempt state anymore because now we serialize
things using the mutex directly instead of using those fields.
It's very unfortunate to have those code for a short period, but that's
still one intermediate step that we noticed the next bottleneck on the
migration thread. Now what we can do best is to drop unnecessary code as
long as the new code is stable to reduce the burden. It's actually a good
thing because the new "sending page in rp-return thread" model is (IMHO)
even cleaner and with better performance.
Remove the old code that was responsible for maintaining preempt states, at
the meantime also remove x-postcopy-preempt-break-huge parameter because
with concurrent sender threads we don't really need to break-huge anymore.

With all the facilities ready, send the requested page directly in the
rp-return thread rather than queuing it in the request queue, if and only
if postcopy preempt is enabled. It can achieve so because it uses separate
channel for sending urgent pages. The only shared data is bitmap and it's
protected by the bitmap_mutex.
Note that since we're moving the ownership of the urgent channel from the
migration thread to rp thread it also means the rp thread is responsible
for managing the qemufile, e.g. properly close it when pausing migration
happens. For this, let migration_release_from_dst_file to cover shutdown
of the urgent channel too, renaming it as migration_release_dst_files() to
better show what it does.

Since we use PageSearchStatus to represent a channel, it makes perfect
sense to keep last_sent_block (aka, leverage RAM_SAVE_FLAG_CONTINUE) to be
per-channel rather than global because each channel can be sending
different pages on ramblocks.
Hence move it from RAMState into PageSearchStatus.

We used to allocate PSS structure on the stack for precopy when sending
pages. Make it static, so as to describe per-channel ram migration status.
Here we declared RAM_CHANNEL_MAX instances, preparing for postcopy to use
it, even though this patch has not yet to start using the 2nd instance.
This should not have any functional change per se, but it already starts to
export PSS information via the RAMState, so that e.g. one PSS channel can
start to reference the other PSS channel.
Always protect PSS access using the same RAMState.bitmap_mutex. We already
do so, so no code change needed, just some comment update. Maybe we should
consider renaming bitmap_mutex some day as it's going to be a more commonly
and big mutex we use for ram states, but just leave it for later.

Introduce pss_channel for PageSearchStatus, define it as "the migration
channel to be used to transfer this host page".
We used to have rs->f, which is a mirror to MigrationState.to_dst_file.
After postcopy preempt initial version, rs->f can be dynamically changed
depending on which channel we want to use.
But that later work still doesn't grant full concurrency of sending pages
in e.g. different threads, because rs->f can either be the PRECOPY channel
or POSTCOPY channel. This needs to be per-thread too.
PageSearchStatus is actually a good piece of struct which we can leverage
if we want to have multiple threads sending pages. Sending a single guest
page may not make sense, so we make the granule to be "host page", and in
the PSS structure we allow specify a QEMUFile* to migrate a specific host
page. Then we open the possibility to specify different channels in
different threads with different PSS structures.
The PSS prefix can be slightly misleading here because e.g. for the
upcoming usage of postcopy channel/thread it's not "searching" (or,
scanning) at all but sending the explicit page that was requested. However
since PSS existed for some years keep it as-is until someone complains.
This patch mostly (simply) replace rs->f with pss->pss_channel only. No
functional change intended for this patch yet. But it does prepare to
finally drop rs->f, and make ram_save_guest_page() thread safe.

Migration code has a lot to do with host pages. Teaching PSS core about
the idea of host page helps a lot and makes the code clean. Meanwhile,
this prepares for the future changes that can leverage the new PSS helpers
that this patch introduces to send host page in another thread.
Three more fields are introduced for this:
(1) host_page_sending: this is set to true when QEMU is sending a host
page, false otherwise.
(2) host_page_{start|end}: these point to the start/end of host page
we're sending, and it's only valid when host_page_sending==true.
For example, when we look up the next dirty page on the ramblock, with
host_page_sending==true, we'll not try to look for anything beyond the
current host page boundary. This can be slightly efficient than current
code because currently we'll set pss->page to next dirty bit (which can be
over current host page boundary) and reset it to host page boundary if we
found it goes beyond that.
With above, we can easily make migration_bitmap_find_dirty() self contained
by updating pss->page properly. rs* parameter is removed because it's not
even used in old code.
When sending a host page, we should use the pss helpers like this:
- pss_host_page_prepare(pss): called before sending host page
- pss_within_range(pss): whether we're still working on the cur host page?
- pss_host_page_finish(pss): called after sending a host page
Then we can use ram_save_target_page() to save one small page.
Currently ram_save_host_page() is still the only user. If there'll be
another function to send host page (e.g. in return path thread) in the
future, it should follow the same style.

To prepare for thread-safety on page accountings, at least below counters
need to be accessed only atomically, they are:
ram_counters.transferred
ram_counters.duplicate
ram_counters.normal
ram_counters.postcopy_bytes
There are a lot of other counters but they won't be accessed outside
migration thread, then they're still safe to be accessed without atomic
ops.

Don't take the bitmap mutex when sending pages, or when being throttled by
migration_rate_limit() (which is a bit tricky to call it here in ram code,
but seems still helpful).
It prepares for the possibility of concurrently sending pages in >1 threads
using the function ram_save_host_page() because all threads may need the
bitmap_mutex to operate on bitmaps, so that either sendmsg() or any kind of
qemu_sem_wait() blocking for one thread will not block the other from
progressing.
