Subject: [PATCH v8 3/7] migration: enable multifd and postcopy together
Date: Tue, 18 Mar 2025 18:08:42 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250318123846.1370312-4-ppandit@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250318123846.1370312-1-ppandit@redhat.com>
From: Prasad Pandit <pjp@fedoraproject.org>
Enable Multifd and Postcopy migration together.
The migration_ioc_process_incoming() routine
checks magic value sent on each channel and
helps to properly setup multifd and postcopy
channels.
The Precopy and Multifd threads work during the
initial guest RAM transfer. When migration moves
to the Postcopy phase, the multifd threads cease
to send data on multifd channels and Postcopy
threads on the destination request/pull data from
the source side.
