Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 0/2] ipmi: Fix vmstate transfer
Date: Wed, 14 Feb 2018 12:23:42 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1518632624-29965-1-git-send-email-minyard@acm.org> (raw)

This took a while because I had other distractions and I spent some
time studying how all this vmstate code works, and that itself got
to be a distraction.

I'm not 100% sure what I have done is right.  Maybe there is a way to
do a backwards migration for KCS, but I'm not sure how.

Changes from v1:
  * Validate the data values in a pre_load functions.
  * For KCS, instead of an old function, create a separate vmstate
    structure for the new version.  The name on the old vmstate
    structure wasn't specific enough, so a new name was needed,
    The old structure is set up to never be sent, but it can be
    received.
