Subject: [PATCH 0/2] dump-guest-memory: Add blocker for migration
Date: Tue, 24 Aug 2021 11:27:19 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210824152721.79747-1-peterx@redhat.com> (raw)

Both dump-guest-memory and live migration have vm state cached internally.
Allowing them to happen together means the vm state can be messed up.  Simply
block live migration for dump-guest-memory.

One trivial thing to mention is we should still allow dump-guest-memory even if
-only-migratable is specified, because that flag should majorly be used to
guarantee not adding devices that will block migration by accident.  Dump guest
memory is not like that - it'll only block for the seconds when it's dumping.

Thanks,
