Subject: [PULL 08/10] migration: Sync requested pages after postcopy recovery
Date: Thu,  8 Oct 2020 20:10:44 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201008191046.272549-9-dgilbert@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201008191046.272549-1-dgilbert@redhat.com>

From: Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com>

We synchronize the requested pages right after a postcopy recovery happens.
This helps to synchronize the prioritized pages on source so that the faulted
threads can be served faster.
