From d14f33976282a8744ca1bf1d64e73996c145aa3f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Maxiwell S. Garcia" Date: Thu, 11 Jul 2019 16:47:02 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] migration: Do not re-read the clock on pre_save in case of paused guest Re-read the timebase before migrate was ported from x86 commit: 6053a86fe7bd: kvmclock: reduce kvmclock difference on migration The clock move makes the guest knows about the paused time between the stop and migrate commands. This is an issue in an already-paused VM because some side effects, like process stalls, could happen after migration. So, this patch checks the runstate of guest in the pre_save handler and do not re-reads the timebase in case of paused state (cold migration). Signed-off-by: Maxiwell S.
