Subject: [Qemu-devel] [6999] stop dirty tracking just at the end of migration (Glauber Costa)
Date: Sun, 05 Apr 2009 19:30:56 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1LqY3T-0000o3-VL@cvs.savannah.gnu.org> (raw)

Revision: 6999
          http://svn.sv.gnu.org/viewvc/?view=rev&root=qemu&revision=6999

Log Message:
-----------
stop dirty tracking just at the end of migration (Glauber Costa)

If there is still work to do, it is not safe to assume we
can end the dirty tracking. Specifically, kvm can update the dirty
tracking log inside ram_save_block(), leaving pages still out of sync
if we go with the current code.

Based on a patch by Yaniv Kamay
