[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 1/1] Introduce "xen-load-devices-state"

[Changlong Xie]

From: Wen Congyang <wency@cn.fujitsu.com>

Introduce a "xen-load-devices-state" QAPI command that can be used to
load the state of all devices, but not the RAM or the block devices of
the VM.

We only have hmp commands savevm/loadvm, and qmp commands
xen-save-devices-state.

We use this new command for COLO:
1. suspend both primary vm and secondary vm
2. sync the state
3. resume both primary vm and secondary vm

In such case, we need to update all devices' state in any time.

It looks OK to me.

Can you explain on Xen how the RAM actually gets loaded?

Does it ever happen that you had it running immediately
before you did this command? Somehow you'd have to have loaded the RAM
at just the right point, and I don't see how that would happen if the guest
was running.

OK, so then if the VM is suspended, what does the:

    if (saved_vm_running) {
        vm_start();
    }

at the end of your routine do?

+    saved_vm_running = runstate_is_running();
+    vm_stop(RUN_STATE_RESTORE_VM);

It is copied from the other codes in qemu.
I think we should return failure if the vm is running:
if (runstate_is_running()) {
    error_setg(xxx);
    return;
}

No, a *comment*; e.g.


    /* Guest must be paused before loading the device state; the RAM state will
     * already have been loaded using xc.
     */
    if (runstate_is_running()) {
        error_setg(errp, "Cannot update device state while vm is running");
        return;
    }
