Subject: [PULL 4/6] migration: Pre-fault memory before starting background snasphot
Date: Wed,  7 Apr 2021 11:20:19 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210407102021.95225-5-dgilbert@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210407102021.95225-1-dgilbert@redhat.com>

From: Andrey Gruzdev <andrey.gruzdev@virtuozzo.com>

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().

Fixes: 278e2f551a095b234de74dca9c214d5502a1f72c (migration: support
  UFFD write fault processing in ram_save_iterate())
