Subject: [PATCH v5 4/6] migration: Sync requested pages after postcopy recovery
Date: Mon, 19 Oct 2020 18:57:18 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20201019225720.172743-5-peterx@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20201019225720.172743-1-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.
