Subject: [PULL 19/20] KVM: Disable manual dirty log when dirty ring enabled
Date: Mon, 17 May 2021 07:20:00 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210517112001.2564006-20-pbonzini@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210517112001.2564006-1-pbonzini@redhat.com>
From: Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com>
KVM_CAP_MANUAL_DIRTY_LOG_PROTECT2 is for KVM_CLEAR_DIRTY_LOG, which is only
useful for KVM_GET_DIRTY_LOG. Skip enabling it for kvm dirty ring.
More importantly, KVM_DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_SET will not wr-protect all the pages
initially, which is against how kvm dirty ring is used - there's no way for kvm
dirty ring to re-protect a page before it's notified as being written first
with a GFN entry in the ring! So when KVM_DIRTY_LOG_INITIALLY_SET is enabled
with dirty ring, we'll see silent data loss after migration.
