Subject: [PATCH RFC 10/12] migration: Introduce a helper to return switchover bw estimate
Date: Thu, 19 Mar 2026 19:13:00 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260319231302.123135-11-peterx@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260319231302.123135-1-peterx@redhat.com>
Add a helper to be able to return an estimate of switchover bw, called
migration_get_switchover_bw(). Use it to sligitly simplify the current
code.
This will be used in new codes later to remove expected_downtime.
