Postcopy with preempt-mode enabled needs two channels to communicate. The
order of channel establishment is not guaranteed. It can happen that the
dest QEMU got the preempt channel connection request before the main
channel is established, then the migration may make no progress even during
precopy due to the wrong order.
To fix it, create the preempt channel only if we know the main channel is
established.
For a general postcopy migration, we delay it until postcopy_start(),
that's where we already went through some part of precopy on the main
channel. To make sure dest QEMU has already established the channel, we
wait until we got the first PONG received. That's something we do at the
start of precopy when postcopy enabled so it's guaranteed to happen sooner
or later.
For a postcopy recovery, we delay it to qemu_savevm_state_resume_prepare()
where we'll have round trips of data on bitmap synchronizations, which
means the main channel must have been established.

Since we just dropped the only case where postcopy_preempt_setup() can
return an error, it doesn't need a retval anymore because it never fails.
Move the preempt check to the caller, preparing it to be used elsewhere to
do nothing but as simple as kicking the async connection.

Current logic assumes that channel connections on the destination side are
always established in the same order as the source and the first one will
always be the main channel followed by the multifid or post-copy
preemption channel. This may not be always true, as even if a channel has a
connection established on the source side it can be in the pending state on
the destination side and a newer connection can be established first.
Basically causing out of order mapping of channels on the destination side.
Currently, all channels except post-copy preempt send a magic number, this
patch uses that magic number to decide the type of channel. This logic is
applicable only for precopy(multifd) live migration, as mentioned, the
post-copy preempt channel does not send any magic number. Also, tls live
migrations already does tls handshake before creating other channels, so
this issue is not possible with tls, hence this logic is avoided for tls
live migrations. This patch uses read peek to check the magic number of
channels so that current data/control stream management remains
un-effected.

This patch allows the postcopy preempt channel to be created
asynchronously. The benefit is that when the connection is slow, we won't
take the BQL (and potentially block all things like QMP) for a long time
without releasing.
A function postcopy_preempt_wait_channel() is introduced, allowing the
migration thread to be able to wait on the channel creation. The channel
is always created by the main thread, in which we'll kick a new semaphore
to tell the migration thread that the channel has created.
We'll need to wait for the new channel in two places: (1) when there's a
new postcopy migration that is starting, or (2) when there's a postcopy
migration to resume.
For the start of migration, we don't need to wait for this channel until
when we want to start postcopy, aka, postcopy_start(). We'll fail the
migration if we found that the channel creation failed (which should
probably not happen at all in 99% of the cases, because the main channel is
using the same network topology).
For a postcopy recovery, we'll need to wait in postcopy_pause(). In that
case if the channel creation failed, we can't fail the migration or we'll
crash the VM, instead we keep in PAUSED state, waiting for yet another
recovery.

Create a new socket for postcopy to be prepared to send postcopy requested
pages via this specific channel, so as to not get blocked by precopy pages.
A new thread is also created on dest qemu to receive data from this new channel
based on the ram_load_postcopy() routine.
The ram_load_postcopy(POSTCOPY) branch and the thread has not started to

Cleanup the new sockets on both src/dst QEMUs, meanwhile look after the new

During migration, a tmp page is allocated so that we could place a whole
host page during postcopy.
Currently the page is allocated during load stage, this is a little bit
late. And more important, if we failed to allocate it, the error is not
checked properly. Even it is NULL, we would still use it.
This patch moves the allocation to setup stage and if failed error
message would be printed and caller would notice it.

In postcopy-ram.c, we provide three functions to discard certain
RAMBlock range:
* postcopy_discard_send_init()
* postcopy_discard_send_range()
* postcopy_discard_send_finish()
Currently, we allocate/deallocate PostcopyDiscardState for each RAMBlock
on sending discard information to destination. This is not necessary and
the same data area could be reused for each RAMBlock.
This patch defines PostcopyDiscardState a static variable. By doing so:
1) avoid memory allocation and deallocation to the system
2) avoid potential failure of memory allocation
3) hide some details for their users
