If a rare split brain happens (e.g. dest QEMU started running somehow,
taking shared drive locks), src QEMU may not be able to activate the
drives anymore. In this case, src QEMU shouldn't start the VM or it might
crash the block layer later with something like:
Meanwhile, src QEMU cannot try to continue either even if dest QEMU can
release the drive locks (e.g. by QMP "stop"). Because as long as dest QEMU
started running, it means dest QEMU's RAM is the only version that is
consistent with current status of the shared storage.

I suppose touching the comment while moving (as long as explicitly
mentioned in the commit message) would be fine, when the comment is exactly
about "we should move it". :) Not a big deal, thanks for the split.

After moving postcopy_ram_listen_thread() to postcopy file, this patch
introduces a pair of functions, postcopy_incoming_setup() and
postcopy_incoming_cleanup(). These functions encapsulate setup and
cleanup of all incoming postcopy resources, postcopy-ram and postcopy
listen thread.
Furthermore, this patch also renames the postcopy_ram_listen_thread to
postcopy_listen_thread, as this thread handles not only postcopy-ram,
but also dirty-bitmaps and in the future it could handle other
postcopiable devices.

Currently, there are two functions that are responsible for calling the
cleanup of the incoming migration state. With successful precopy, it's
the incoming migration coroutine, and with successful postcopy it's the
postcopy listen thread. However, if postcopy fails during in the device
load, both functions will try to do the cleanup.
This patch refactors all cleanup that needs to be done on the incoming
side into a common function and defines a clear boundary, who is
responsible for the cleanup. The incoming migration coroutine is
responsible for calling the cleanup function, unless the listen thread
has been started, in which case the postcopy listen thread runs the
incoming migration cleanup in its BH.

The patch looks all good itself. Here a pure question: is the old code
wrong? If user sets exit_on_error=false, then this path seems to be
releasing the error object, then query-migrate will see nothing?

I have tested this, and it is indeed what happens with the old code.
There is no "error-desc" in the response of "query-migrate" command,
just "status": "failed".

Looks like it was a regression.
At the meantime, I feel like it's indeed fine if we do not dump error when
exit-on-error=false, like what you did here.
So I'll attach this:
Fixes: 9535435795 ("migration: push Error **errp into qemu_loadvm_state()")
And as the current patch looks all correct to me:
Reviewed-by: Peter Xu <peterx@redhat.com>
I've queued the series, thanks!
I'll post a small patch shortly to test the error-desc for
exit-on-error=false.

Juraj, please have a look. If the fix is small feel free to send a fixup
on top of a patch.
IIUC, we at least need below, but maybe not enough:

When exit-on-error was added to migration, it wasn't added to postcopy.
Even though postcopy migration will usually pause and not fail, in cases
it does unrecoverably fail before destination side has been started,
exit-on-error will allow management to query the error.

This patch makes the listen thread joinable instead detached, and joins
it alongside other postcopy threads.

From: Juraj Marcin <jmarcin@redhat.com>
Currently, when postcopy starts, the source VM starts switchover and
sends a package containing the state of all non-postcopiable devices.
When the destination loads this package, the switchover is complete and
the destination VM starts. However, if the device state load fails or
the destination side crashes, the source side is already in
POSTCOPY_ACTIVE state and cannot be recovered, even when it has the most
up-to-date machine state as the destination has not yet started.
This patch introduces a new POSTCOPY_DEVICE state which is active
while the destination machine is loading the device state, is not yet
running, and the source side can be resumed in case of a migration
failure.
To transition from POSTCOPY_DEVICE to POSTCOPY_ACTIVE, the source
side uses a PONG message that is a response to a PING message processed
just before the POSTCOPY_RUN command that starts the destination VM.
Thus, this feature is effective even if the destination side does not
yet support this new state.
