Avoid hot pages being replaced by others to remarkably decrease cache
misses
Sample results with the test program which quote from xbzrle.txt ran in
vm:(migrate bandwidth:1GE and xbzrle cache size 8MB)
the test program:
include <stdlib.h>
include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
char *buf = (char *) calloc(4096, 4096);
while (1) {
int i;
for (i = 0; i < 4096 * 4; i++) {
buf[i * 4096 / 4]++;
}
printf(".");
}
}
before this patch:
virsh qemu-monitor-command test_vm '{"execute": "query-migrate"}'
{"return":{"expected-downtime":1020,"xbzrle-cache":{"bytes":1108284,
"cache-size":8388608,"cache-miss-rate":0.987013,"pages":18297,"overflow":8,
"cache-miss":1228737},"status":"active","setup-time":10,"total-time":52398,

"dirty-pages-rate":29130,"skipped":0,"normal-bytes":5748592640,
"normal":1403465}},"id":"libvirt-706"}
18k pages sent compressed in 52 seconds.
cache-miss-rate is 98.7%, totally miss.
after optimizing:
virsh qemu-monitor-command test_vm '{"execute": "query-migrate"}'
{"return":{"expected-downtime":2054,"xbzrle-cache":{"bytes":5066763,
"cache-size":8388608,"cache-miss-rate":0.485924,"pages":194823,"overflow":0,

"dirty-pages-rate":58781,"skipped":0,"normal-bytes":1588404224,
"normal":387794}},"id":"libvirt-266"}
194k pages sent compressed in 18 seconds.
The value of cache-miss-rate decrease to 48.59%.
