[Qemu-devel] [0/6] Fill gaps in savevm support

[Qemu-devel] [0/6] Fill gaps in savevm support

[David Gibson]

This is a series of fairly straightforward patches to fix some fairly
obvious gaps in the set of helpers for VMStateDescription buffers.
These just extend existing practice to some data types that didn't yet
have helper functions, presumably because there were not yet any
users.

I have draft savevm support for the pseries machine in the works which
need the various extensions here.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/6] savevm: Add VMSTATE_UINT64_EQUAL helpers

[David Gibson]

The savevm code already includes a number of *_EQUAL helpers which act as
sanity checks verifying that the configuration of the saved state matches
that of the machine we're loading into to work.  Variants already exist
for 8 bit 16 bit and 32 bit integers, but not 64 bit integers.  This patch
fills that hole, adding a UINT64 version.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 2/6] savevm: Add VMSTATE_UINTTL_EQUAL helper

[David Gibson]

This adds an _EQUAL VMSTATE helper for target_ulongs, defined in terms of
VMSTATE_UINT32_EQUAL or VMSTATE_UINT64_EQUAL as appropriate.

Currently the savevm code contains a VMSTATE_STRUCT_VARRAY_POINTER_INT32
helper (a variably sized array with the number of elements in an int32_t),
but not VMSTATE_STRUCT_VARRAY_POINTER_UINT32 (... with the number of

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 6/6] savevm: Fix bugs in the VMSTATE_VBUFFER_MULTIPLY definition

[David Gibson]

The VMSTATE_BUFFER_MULTIPLY macro is misnamed - it actually specifies
a variably sized buffer with VMS_VBUFFER, so should be named
VMSTATE_VBUFFER_MULTIPLY.  This patch fixes this (the macro had no current
users under either name).

In addition, unlike the other VMSTATE_VBUFFER variants, this macro did not
specify VMS_POINTER.  This patch fixes this bug as well.

[Qemu-devel] [0/6] Simple extensions to VMStateDescription features

[David Gibson]

Jean, Anthony,

This series contains a bunch of straightforward extensions to the
suite of functions and macros for using in VMStateDescription
structures.  Mostly these fill fairly obvious gaps in the existing
set, though the last adds genuinely new feature (but is still pretty
simple).

Obviously, these aren't being used in the savevm code already in the
tree, but I need them for my work-in-progress patches fixing / adding
savevm support for ppc guests.

Please apply.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 1/6] savevm: Add VMSTATE_UINT64_EQUAL helpers

[David Gibson]

The savevm code already includes a number of *_EQUAL helpers which act as
sanity checks verifying that the configuration of the saved state matches
that of the machine we're loading into to work.  Variants already exist
for 8 bit 16 bit and 32 bit integers, but not 64 bit integers.  This patch
fills that hole, adding a UINT64 version.
