Reproduce the problem:
migrate
migrate_cancel
migrate
Error happen for memory migration
The reason as follows:
1. qemu start, ram_list.dirty_memory[DIRTY_MEMORY_MIGRATION] all set to
1 by a series of cpu_physical_memory_set_dirty_range
2. migration start:ram_init_bitmaps
- memory_global_dirty_log_start: begin log diry
- memory_global_dirty_log_sync: sync dirty bitmap to
ram_list.dirty_memory[DIRTY_MEMORY_MIGRATION]
- migration_bitmap_sync_range: sync ram_list.
dirty_memory[DIRTY_MEMORY_MIGRATION] to RAMBlock.bmap
and ram_list.dirty_memory[DIRTY_MEMORY_MIGRATION] is set to zero
3. migration data...
4. migrate_cancel, will stop log dirty
5. migration start:ram_init_bitmaps
- memory_global_dirty_log_start: begin log diry
- memory_global_dirty_log_sync: sync dirty bitmap to
ram_list.dirty_memory[DIRTY_MEMORY_MIGRATION]
- migration_bitmap_sync_range: sync ram_list.
dirty_memory[DIRTY_MEMORY_MIGRATION] to RAMBlock.bmap
and ram_list.dirty_memory[DIRTY_MEMORY_MIGRATION] is set to zero
Here RAMBlock.bmap only have new logged dirty pages, don't contain
the whole guest pages.

By removing the share ram check, qemu is able to migrate
to private destination ram when x-ignore-shared capability
is on. Then we can create multiple destination VMs based
on the same source VM.
This changes the x-ignore-shared migration capability to
work similar to Lai's original bypass-shared-memory
work(https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-04/msg00003.html)
which enables kata containers (https://katacontainers.io)
to implement the VM templating feature.
An example usage in kata containers(https://katacontainers.io):
1. Start the source VM:
qemu-system-x86 -m 2G \
-object memory-backend-file,id=mem0,size=2G,share=on,mem-path=/tmpfs/template-memory \
-numa node,memdev=mem0
2. Stop the template VM, set migration x-ignore-shared capability,
migrate "exec:cat>/tmpfs/state", quit it
3. Start target VM:
qemu-system-x86 -m 2G \
-object memory-backend-file,id=mem0,size=2G,share=off,mem-path=/tmpfs/template-memory \
-numa node,memdev=mem0 \
-incoming defer
4. connect to target VM qmp, set migration x-ignore-shared capability,
migrate_incoming "exec:cat /tmpfs/state"
5. create more target VMs repeating 3 and 4

Currently we are doing log_clear() right after log_sync() which mostly
keeps the old behavior when log_clear() was still part of log_sync().
This patch tries to further optimize the migration log_clear() code
path to split huge log_clear()s into smaller chunks.
We do this by spliting the whole guest memory region into memory
chunks, whose size is decided by MigrationState.clear_bitmap_shift (an
example will be given below). With that, we don't do the dirty bitmap
clear operation on the remote node (e.g., KVM) when we fetch the dirty
bitmap, instead we explicitly clear the dirty bitmap for the memory
chunk for each of the first time we send a page in that chunk.
Here comes an example.
Assuming the guest has 64G memory, then before this patch the KVM
ioctl KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG will be a single one covering 64G memory.
If after the patch, let's assume when the clear bitmap shift is 18,
then the memory chunk size on x86_64 will be 1UL<<18 * 4K = 1GB. Then
instead of sending a big 64G ioctl, we'll send 64 small ioctls, each
of the ioctl will cover 1G of the guest memory. For each of the 64
small ioctls, we'll only send if any of the page in that small chunk
was going to be sent right away.

On receiving RAM_SAVE_FLAG_EOS, multifd_recv_sync_main() is called to
synchronize receive threads. Current synchronization mechanism is to wait
for each channel's sem_sync semaphore. This semaphore is triggered by a
packet with MULTIFD_FLAG_SYNC flag. While in current implementation, we
don't do multifd_send_sync_main() to send such packet when
blk_mig_bulk_active() is true.
This will leads to the receive threads won't notify
multifd_recv_sync_main() by sem_sync. And multifd_recv_sync_main() will
always wait there.
[Note]: normal migration test works, while didn't test the
blk_mig_bulk_active() case. Since not sure how to produce this
situation.

During migration, we would sync bitmap from ram_list.dirty_memory to
RAMBlock.bmap in cpu_physical_memory_sync_dirty_bitmap().
Since we set RAMBlock.bmap and ram_list.dirty_memory both to all 1, this
means at the first round this sync is meaningless and is a duplicated
work.
Leaving RAMBlock->bmap blank on allocating would have a side effect on
migration_dirty_pages, since it is calculated from the result of
cpu_physical_memory_sync_dirty_bitmap(). To keep it right, we need to
set migration_dirty_pages to 0 in ram_state_init().

This patch adds the free page optimization enable flag, and a function
to set this flag. When the free page optimization is enabled, not all
the pages are needed to be sent in the bulk stage.
Why using a new flag, instead of directly disabling ram_bulk_stage when
the optimization is running?
Thanks for Peter Xu's reminder that disabling ram_bulk_stage will affect
the use of compression. Please see save_page_use_compression. When
xbzrle and compression are used, if free page optimizaion causes the
ram_bulk_stage to be disabled, save_page_use_compression will return
false, which disables the use of compression. That is, if free page
optimization avoids the sending of half of the guest pages, the other
half of pages loses the benefits of compression in the meantime. Using a
new flag to let migration_bitmap_find_dirty skip the free pages in the
bulk stage will avoid the above issue.

is initially the same as SVM/PVM's memory. And in the process of checkpoint,
we cache the dirty pages of PVM into this ram cache firstly, so this ram cache

Add judgement in compress_threads_save_cleanup() to check whether the
static CompressParam *comp_param has been allocated. If not, just
return; or else segmentation fault will occur when using the NULL
comp_param's parameters. One test case can reproduce this is: set
the compression on and migrate to a wrong nonexistent host IP address.
Our current code does not judge before handling comp_param[idx]'s quit
and cond that whether they have been initialized. If not initialized,
"qemu_mutex_lock_impl: Assertion `mutex->initialized' failed." will
occur. Fix this by squashing the terminate_compression_threads() into
compress_threads_save_cleanup() and employing the existing judgement
condition. One test case can reproduce this error is: set the
compression on and fail to fully setup the default eight compression
thread in compress_threads_save_setup().

flush_compressed_data() needs to wait all compression threads to
finish their work, after that all threads are free until the
migration feeds new request to them, reducing its call can improve
the throughput and use CPU resource more effectively
We do not need to flush all threads at the end of iteration, the
data can be kept locally until the memory block is changed or
memory migration starts over in that case we will meet a dirtied
page which may still exists in compression threads's ring

As Peter pointed out:
| - xbzrle_counters.cache_miss is done in save_xbzrle_page(), so it's
| per-guest-page granularity
|
| - RAMState.iterations is done for each ram_find_and_save_block(), so
| it's per-host-page granularity
|
| An example is that when we migrate a 2M huge page in the guest, we
| will only increase the RAMState.iterations by 1 (since
| ram_find_and_save_block() will be called once), but we might increase
| xbzrle_counters.cache_miss for 2M/4K=512 times (we'll call
| save_xbzrle_page() that many times) if all the pages got cache miss.
| Then IMHO the cache miss rate will be 512/1=51200% (while it should
| actually be just 100% cache miss).
And he also suggested as xbzrle_counters.cache_miss_rate is the only
user of rs->iterations we can adapt it to count target guest page
numbers
After that, rename 'iterations' to 'target_page_count' to better reflect
its meaning

The generated qapi_event_send_FOO() take an Error ** argument. They
can't actually fail, because all they do with the argument is passing it
to functions that can't fail: the QObject output visitor, and the
@qmp_emit callback, which is either monitor_qapi_event_queue() or
event_test_emit().
Drop the argument, and pass &error_abort to the QObject output visitor
and @qmp_emit instead.
