[PATCH v3 0/4] migration: Fix disorder of channel creations

[Peter Xu]

v3
- Fix indent for uri_supports_multi_channels() [Juan]
- Rename migration_uri_validate() to migration_channels_and_uri_compatible() [Juan]
- Separate the changes to migrate_postcopy_preempt() into separate patch [Juan]

I can trigger disordered connections with preempt mode postcopy (1 out of a
few attemps), which can cause migration to hang during precopy phase, if
e.g. I set the NIC packet loss rate to 50%.

The last patch fixes the real ordering issue.  For each of the patch,
please refer to the commit message and comments in-code.

Any comment welcomed, thanks.

[PATCH v3 1/4] migration: Rework multi-channel checks on URI

[Peter Xu]

The whole idea of multi-channel checks was not properly done, IMHO.

Currently we check multi-channel in a lot of places, but actually that's
not needed because we only need to check it right after we get the URI and
that should be it.

If the URI check succeeded, we should never need to check it again because
we must have it.  If it check fails, we should fail immediately on either
the qmp_migrate or qmp_migrate_incoming, instead of failingg it later after
the connection established.

Neither should we fail any set capabiliities like what we used to do here:

5ad15e8614 ("migration: allow enabling mutilfd for specific protocol only", 2021-10-19)

Because logically the URI will only be set later after the capability is
set, so it doesn't make a lot of sense to check the URI type when setting
the capability, because we're checking the cap with an old URI passed in,
and that may not even be the URI we're going to use later.

This patch mostly reverted all such checks for before, dropping the
variable migrate_allow_multi_channels and helpers.  Instead, add a common
helper to check URI for multi-channels for either qmp_migrate and
qmp_migrate_incoming and that should do all the proper checks.  The failure
will only trigger with the "migrate" or "migrate_incoming" command, or when
user specified "-incoming xxx" where "xxx" is not "defer".

[PATCH v3 2/4] migration: Cleanup postcopy_preempt_setup()

[Peter Xu]

Since we just dropped the only case where postcopy_preempt_setup() can
return an error, it doesn't need a retval anymore because it never fails.
Move the preempt check to the caller, preparing it to be used elsewhere to
do nothing but as simple as kicking the async connection.

This is mostly useless, but useful for us to know whether the main channel

[PATCH v3 4/4] migration: Postpone postcopy preempt channel to be after main

[Peter Xu]

Postcopy with preempt-mode enabled needs two channels to communicate.  The
order of channel establishment is not guaranteed.  It can happen that the
dest QEMU got the preempt channel connection request before the main
channel is established, then the migration may make no progress even during
precopy due to the wrong order.

To fix it, create the preempt channel only if we know the main channel is
established.

For a general postcopy migration, we delay it until postcopy_start(),
that's where we already went through some part of precopy on the main
channel.  To make sure dest QEMU has already established the channel, we
wait until we got the first PONG received.  That's something we do at the
start of precopy when postcopy enabled so it's guaranteed to happen sooner
or later.

For a postcopy recovery, we delay it to qemu_savevm_state_resume_prepare()
where we'll have round trips of data on bitmap synchronizations, which
means the main channel must have been established.
