Subject: [PATCH v2 09/13] migration/postcopy: Initialize blocktime context only until listen
Date: Mon,  9 Jun 2025 15:12:55 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250609191259.9053-10-peterx@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250609191259.9053-1-peterx@redhat.com>

Before this patch, the blocktime context can be created very early, because
postcopy_ram_supported_by_host() <- migrate_caps_check() can happen during
migration object init.

The trick here is the blocktime context needs system vCPU information,
which seems to be possible to change after that point.  I didn't verify it,
but it doesn't sound right.

Now move it out and initialize the context only when postcopy listen
starts.  That is already during a migration so it should be guaranteed the
vCPU topology can never change on both sides.

While at it, assert that the ctx isn't created instead this time; the old
"if" trick isn't needed when we're sure it will only happen once now.
