This is the 14th version of COLO (Still only support periodic checkpoint).

Here is only COLO frame part, you can get the whole codes from github:
https://github.com/coloft/qemu/commits/colo-v2.5-periodic-mode

There are little changes for this series except the network releated part.
We have re-implement this part according to Jason's suggestion. Most of other
parts have been reviewed by Dave.

QEMU has approached soft-freeze for 2.6, we hope COLO prototype to be merged
in 2.6, but we are not sure if we have enough time to catch this train.
So please help us, thanks very much.

Test procedure:
1. Startup qemu
Primary side:
#x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -boot c -m 2048 -smp 2 -qmp stdio -vnc :7 -name primary -cpu qemu64,+kvmclock -device piix3-usb-uhci -device usb-tablet -netdev tap,id=hn0,vhost=off -device virtio-net-pci,id=net-pci0,netdev=hn0 -drive if=virtio,id=colo-disk0,driver=quorum,read-pattern=fifo,vote-threshold=1,children.0.file.filename=/mnt/sdd/rhel_6.5_64_2U_ide,children.0.driver=raw
Secondary side:
#x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 -boot c -m 2048 -smp 2 -qmp stdio -vnc :7 -name secondary -enable-kvm -cpu qemu64,+kvmclock -device piix3-usb-uhci -device usb-tablet -netdev tap,id=hn0,vhost=off -device virtio-net-pci,id=net-pci0,netdev=hn0 -drive if=none,id=colo-disk0,file.filename=/mnt/sdd/rhel_6.5_64_2U_ide,driver=raw,node-name=node0 -drive if=virtio,id=active-disk0,throttling.bps-total=70000000,driver=replication,mode=secondary,file.driver=qcow2,file.file.filename=/mnt/ramfs/active_disk.img,file.backing.driver=qcow2,file.backing.file.filename=/mnt/ramfs/hidden_disk.img,file.backing.backing=colo-disk0 -incoming tcp:0:8888
2. On Secondary VM's QEMU monitor, issue command
{'execute':'qmp_capabilities'}
{'execute': 'nbd-server-start', 'arguments': {'addr': {'type': 'inet', 'data': {'host': '192.168.2.88', 'port': '8889'} } } }
{'execute': 'nbd-server-add', 'arguments': {'device': 'colo-disk0', 'writable': true } }
{'execute': 'trace-event-set-state', 'arguments': {'name': 'colo*', 'enable': true} }

3. On Primary VM's QEMU monitor, issue command:
{'execute':'qmp_capabilities'}
{'execute': 'human-monitor-command', 'arguments': {'command-line': 'drive_add buddy driver=replication,mode=primary,file.driver=nbd,file.host=9.61.1.7,file.port=8889,file.export=colo-disk0,node-name=node0,if=none,id=blk-buddy0'}}
{'execute':'x-blockdev-change', 'arguments':{'parent': 'colo-disk0', 'node': 'node0' } }
{'execute': 'migrate-set-capabilities', 'arguments': {'capabilities': [ {'capability': 'x-colo', 'state': true } ] } }
{'execute': 'migrate', 'arguments': {'uri': 'tcp:192.168.2.88:8888' } }

4. After the above steps, you will see, whenever you make changes to PVM, SVM will be synced.
You can by issue command '{ "execute": "migrate-set-parameters" , "arguments":{ "x-checkpoint-delay": 2000 } }'
to change the checkpoint period time.

5. Failover test
You can kill Primary VM and run 'x_colo_lost_heartbeat' in Secondary VM's
monitor at the same time, then SVM will failover and client will not feel this 
change.

Before issuing '{ "execute": "x-colo-lost-heartbeat" }' command, we have to
issue block related command to stop block replication.
Primary:
  Remove the nbd child from the quorum:
  { 'execute': 'x-blockdev-change', 'arguments': {'parent': 'colo-disk0', 'child': 'children.1'}}
  { 'execute': 'human-monitor-command','arguments': {'command-line': 'drive_del blk-buddy0'}}
  Note: there is no qmp command to remove the blockdev now

Secondary:
  The primary host is down, so we should do the following thing:
  { 'execute': 'nbd-server-stop' }

TODO:
1. Checkpoint based on proxy in qemu
2. The capability of continuous FT
3. Optimize the VM's downtime during checkpoint

v14:
 - Re-implement the network processing based on netfilter (Jason Wang)
 - Rename 'COLOCommand' to 'COLOMessage'. (Markus's suggestion)
 - Split two new patches (patch 27/28) from patch 29
 - Fix some other comments from Dave and Markus.

v13:
 - Refactor colo_*_cmd helper functions to use 'Error **errp' parameter
  instead of return value to indicate success or failure. (patch 10)
 - Remove the optional error message for COLO_EXIT event. (patch 25)
 - Use semaphore to notify colo/colo incoming loop that failover work is
   finished. (patch 26)
 - Move COLO shutdown related codes to colo.c file. (patch 28)
 - Fix memory leak bug for colo incoming loop. (new patch 31)
 - Re-use some existed helper functions to realize the process of
   saving/loading ram and device. (patch 32)
 - Fix some other comments from Dave and Markus.
