Subject: [PATCH 0/9] vhost-user: Migration support
Date: Thu, 19 Dec 2024 12:13:51 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241219111400.2352110-1-lvivier@redhat.com> (raw)

This series allows a QEMU guest to be migrated while it is connected
to Passt using vhost-user interface.

There are two parts:

- first part enables the migration of QEMU without transferring the
  internal state of Passt. All connections are lost.

  This is done by implementing VHOST_USER_SET_LOG_FD and
  VHOST_USER_SET_LOG_BASE commands (and enabling
  VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_LOG_SHMFD feature)

  "vhost-user: add VHOST_USER_SET_LOG_FD command"
  "vhost-user: add VHOST_USER_SET_LOG_BASE command"
  "vhost-user: Report to front-end we support VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_LOG_SHMFD"

- second part allows source Passt instance to send its internal
  state using QEMU migration channel to destination Passt instance.

  This is done implementing VHOST_USER_SET_DEVICE_STATE_FD and
  VHOST_USER_CHECK_DEVICE_STATE (and enabling
  VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_DEVICE_STATE feature).

  "vhost-user: add VHOST_USER_CHECK_DEVICE_STATE command"
  "vhost-user: add VHOST_USER_SET_DEVICE_STATE_FD command"
  "vhost-user: Report to front-end we support VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_DEVICE_STATE"

  For now, it only implements the function needed to transfer the
  state but no state is transferred.

  VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_DEVICE_STATE is implemented in QEMU
  only for vhost-user-fs, to be able to use it with virtio-net
  I have proposed a patch upstream:
