We plan to include multiple channels in future, to connnect

This patch introduces well defined MigrateAddress struct
and its related child objects.
The existing argument of 'migrate' and 'migrate-incoming' QAPI
- 'uri' is of type string. The current implementation follows
double encoding scheme for fetching migration parameters like
'uri' and this is not an ideal design.
Motive for intoducing struct level design is to prevent double
encoding of QAPI arguments, as Qemu should be able to directly
use the QAPI arguments without any level of encoding.
Note: this commit only adds the type, and actual uses comes
in later commits.
Fabiano fixed for "file" transport.

of qemu. The caller must specify a migration URI that writes to and reads
from a file. Unlike normal mode, the use of certain local storage options
does not block the migration, but the caller must not modify guest block
devices between the quit and restart. To avoid saving guest RAM to the
file, the memory backend must be shared, and the @x-ignore-shared migration
capability must be set. Guest RAM must be non-volatile across reboot, such
as by backing it with a dax device, but this is not enforced. The restarted
qemu arguments must match those used to initially start qemu, plus the

Migration bandwidth is a very important value to live migration. It's
because it's one of the major factors that we'll make decision on when to
switchover to destination in a precopy process.
This value is currently estimated by QEMU during the whole live migration
process by monitoring how fast we were sending the data. This can be the
most accurate bandwidth if in the ideal world, where we're always feeding
unlimited data to the migration channel, and then it'll be limited to the
bandwidth that is available.
However in reality it may be very different, e.g., over a 10Gbps network we
can see query-migrate showing migration bandwidth of only a few tens of
MB/s just because there are plenty of other things the migration thread
might be doing. For example, the migration thread can be busy scanning
zero pages, or it can be fetching dirty bitmap from other external dirty
sources (like vhost or KVM). It means we may not be pushing data as much
as possible to migration channel, so the bandwidth estimated from "how many
data we sent in the channel" can be dramatically inaccurate sometimes.
With that, the decision to switchover will be affected, by assuming that we
may not be able to switchover at all with such a low bandwidth, but in
reality we can.
The migration may not even converge at all with the downtime specified,
with that wrong estimation of bandwidth, keeping iterations forever with a
low estimation of bandwidth.
The issue is QEMU itself may not be able to avoid those uncertainties on
measuing the real "available migration bandwidth". At least not something
I can think of so far.
One way to fix this is when the user is fully aware of the available
bandwidth, then we can allow the user to help providing an accurate value.
For example, if the user has a dedicated channel of 10Gbps for migration
for this specific VM, the user can specify this bandwidth so QEMU can
always do the calculation based on this fact, trusting the user as long as
specified. It may not be the exact bandwidth when switching over (in which
case qemu will push migration data as fast as possible), but much better
than QEMU trying to wildly guess, especially when very wrong.
A new parameter "avail-switchover-bandwidth" is introduced just for this.
So when the user specified this parameter, instead of trusting the
estimated value from QEMU itself (based on the QEMUFile send speed), it
trusts the user more by using this value to decide when to switchover,
assuming that we'll have such bandwidth available then.
Note that specifying this value will not throttle the bandwidth for
switchover yet, so QEMU will always use the full bandwidth possible for
sending switchover data, assuming that should always be the most important
way to use the network at that time.
This can resolve issues like "unconvergence migration" which is caused by
hilarious low "migration bandwidth" detected for whatever reason.

Currently query-dirty-rate uses QEMU_CLOCK_REALTIME as
the source for start-time field. This translates to
clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC), i.e. number of seconds
since host boot. This is not very useful. The only
reasonable use case of start-time I can imagine is to
check whether previously completed measurements are
too old or not. But this makes sense only if start-time
is reported as host wall-clock time.
This patch replaces source of start-time from
QEMU_CLOCK_REALTIME to QEMU_CLOCK_HOST.

Migration downtime estimation is calculated based on bandwidth and
remaining migration data. This assumes that loading of migration data in
the destination takes a negligible amount of time and that downtime
depends only on network speed.
While this may be true for RAM, it's not necessarily true for other
migrated devices. For example, loading the data of a VFIO device in the
destination might require from the device to allocate resources, prepare
internal data structures and so on. These operations can take a
significant amount of time which can increase migration downtime.
This patch adds a new capability "switchover ack" that prevents the
source from stopping the VM and completing the migration until an ACK
is received from the destination that it's OK to do so.
This can be used by migrated devices in various ways to reduce downtime.
For example, a device can send initial precopy metadata to pre-allocate
resources in the destination and use this capability to make sure that
the pre-allocation is completed before the source VM is stopped, so it
will have full effect.
This new capability relies on the return path capability to communicate
from the destination back to the source.
The actual implementation of the capability will be added in the
following patches.

flag set is not migrated when migrate_ignore_shared() is true. This is
wrong, because the block has no named backing store, and its contents will
be lost. To fix, ignore shared memory iff it is a named file. Define a

We don't allow to use x-colo capability when replication is not
configured. So, no reason to build COLO when replication is disabled,
it's unusable in this case.
Note also that the check in migrate_caps_check() is not the only
restriction: some functions in migration/colo.c will just abort if
called with not defined CONFIG_REPLICATION, for example:
migration_iteration_finish()
case MIGRATION_STATUS_COLO:
migrate_start_colo_process()
colo_process_checkpoint()
abort()
It could probably make sense to have possibility to enable COLO without
REPLICATION, but this requires deeper audit of colo & replication code,
which may be done later if needed.

Firstly, postcopy already preempts precopy due to the fact that we do
unqueue_page() first before looking into dirty bits.
However that's not enough, e.g., when there're host huge page enabled, when
sending a precopy huge page, a postcopy request needs to wait until the whole
huge page that is sending to finish. That could introduce quite some delay,
the bigger the huge page is the larger delay it'll bring.
This patch adds a new capability to allow postcopy requests to preempt existing
precopy page during sending a huge page, so that postcopy requests can be
serviced even faster.
Meanwhile to send it even faster, bypass the precopy stream by providing a
standalone postcopy socket for sending requested pages.
Since the new behavior will not be compatible with the old behavior, this will
not be the default, it's enabled only when the new capability is set on both
src/dst QEMUs.
This patch only adds the capability itself, the logic will be added in follow
up patches.

Implement dirtyrate calculation periodically basing on
dirty-ring and throttle virtual CPU until it reachs the quota
dirty page rate given by user.
Introduce qmp commands "set-vcpu-dirty-limit",
"cancel-vcpu-dirty-limit", "query-vcpu-dirty-limit"
to enable, disable, query dirty page limit for virtual CPU.
Meanwhile, introduce corresponding hmp commands
"set_vcpu_dirty_limit", "cancel_vcpu_dirty_limit",
"info vcpu_dirty_limit" so the feature can be more usable.
"query-vcpu-dirty-limit" success depends on enabling dirty
page rate limit, so just add it to the list of skipped
command to ensure qmp-cmd-test run successfully.

When originally implemented, zero_copy_send was designed as a Migration
paramenter.
But taking into account how is that supposed to work, and how
the difference between a capability and a parameter, it only makes sense
that zero-copy-send would work better as a capability.
Taking into account how recently the change got merged, it was decided
that it's still time to make it right, and convert zero_copy_send into
a Migration capability.

dgilbert: always define the capability, even on non-Linux but error if
set; avoids build problems with the capability
(This replaces the 28th April through 10th May sets)
Compared to that last set it just has the Alpine
uring check that Leo has added; although that's also
now fixed upstream in Alpine.
It contains:
TLS test fixes from Dan
Zerocopy migration feature from Leo

Add property that allows zero-copy migration of memory pages
on the sending side, and also includes a helper function
migrate_use_zero_copy_send() to check if it's enabled.
No code is introduced to actually do the migration, but it allow
future implementations to enable/disable this feature.
On non-Linux builds this parameter is compiled-out.

Perfectly aligned things look pretty, but keeping them that
way as the schema evolves requires churn, and in some cases
newly-added lines are not aligned properly.
Overall, trying to align things is just not worth the trouble.

The examples for the snapshot-* and calc-dirty-rate commands document
that arguments for the commands are passed in a 'data' field.
This is wrong, passing them in a "data" field results in
the error:
{"error": {"class": "GenericError", "desc": "QMP input member 'data'
is unexpected"}}
Arguments are expected to be passed in an field called "arguments".
Replace "data" with "arguments" in the snapshot-* and calc-dirty-rate
command examples.
