Hi,alls
As we know,xen 4+ maintains a dirty bitmap. Snapshot or migration will
use this bitmap. When the guest domain changes the memory page， VMM can
capture it and set dirty bitmap to 1.
But I can't know how VMM to maintain this dirty bitmap. Under what
circumstances VMM will set the dirty page bitmap to 1, and how to track the
page is be dirty?
Thanks！

The keyword you are looking for is "logdirty". Grepping the source base for
that should get you on the right track.
Ian.
