ae30b9b289 migration/postcopy: Detect file system on dest host
Postcopy requires the memory support userfaultfd to work.  Right now we
check it but it's a bit too late (when switching to postcopy migration).

Do that early right at enabling of postcopy.

Note that this is still only a best effort because ramblocks can be
dynamically created.  We can add check in hostmem creations and fail if
postcopy enabled, but maybe that's too aggressive.

Still, we have chance to fail the most obvious where we know there's an
existing unsupported ramblock.

06064a6715 migration: Recover behavior of preempt channel creation for pre-7.2
In 8.0 devel window we reworked preempt channel creation, so that there'll
be no race condition when the migration channel and preempt channel got
established in the wrong order in commit 5655aab079.

However no one noticed that the change will also be not compatible with
older qemus, majorly 7.1/7.2 versions where preempt mode started to be
supported.

Leverage the same pre-7.2 flag introduced in the previous patch to recover
the behavior hopefully before 8.0 releases, so we don't break migration
when we migrate from 8.0 to older qemu binaries.

6621883f93 migration: Fix potential race on postcopy_qemufile_src
postcopy_qemufile_src object should be owned by one thread, either the main
thread (e.g. when at the beginning, or at the end of migration), or by the
return path thread (when during a preempt enabled postcopy migration).  If
that's not the case the access to the object might be racy.

postcopy_preempt_shutdown_file() can be potentially racy, because it's
called at the end phase of migration on the main thread, however during
which the return path thread hasn't yet been recycled; the recycle happens
in await_return_path_close_on_source() which is after this point.

It means, logically it's posslbe the main thread and the return path thread
are both operating on the same qemufile.  While I don't think qemufile is
thread safe at all.

postcopy_preempt_shutdown_file() used to be needed because that's where we
send EOS to dest so that dest can safely shutdown the preempt thread.

To avoid the possible race, remove this only place that a race can happen.
Instead we figure out another way to safely close the preempt thread on
dest.

The core idea during postcopy on deciding "when to stop" is that dest will
send a postcopy SHUT message to src, telling src that all data is there.
Hence to shut the dest preempt thread maybe better to do it directly on
dest node.

This patch proposed such a way that we change postcopy_prio_thread_created
into PreemptThreadStatus, so that we kick the preempt thread on dest qemu
by a sequence of:

  mis->preempt_thread_status = PREEMPT_THREAD_QUIT;
  qemu_file_shutdown(mis->postcopy_qemufile_dst);

While here shutdown() is probably so far the easiest way to kick preempt
thread from a blocked qemu_get_be64().  Then it reads preempt_thread_status
to make sure it's not a network failure but a willingness to quit the
thread.

We could have avoided that extra status but just rely on migration status.
The problem is postcopy_ram_incoming_cleanup() is just called early enough
so we're still during POSTCOPY_ACTIVE no matter what.. So just make it
simple to have the status introduced.

One flag x-preempt-pre-7-2 is added to keep old pre-7.2 behaviors of
postcopy preempt.

a5d35dc7e0 migration: Wait on preempt channel in preempt thread
QEMU main thread will wait until dest preempt channel established during
processing the LISTEN command (within the whole postcopy PACKAGED data), by
waiting on the semaphore postcopy_qemufile_dst_done.

That's racy, because it's possible that the dest QEMU main thread hasn't
yet accept()ed the new connection when processing the LISTEN event.  The
sem_wait() will yield the main thread without being able to run anything
else including the accept() of the new socket, which can cause deadlock
within the main thread.

To avoid the race, move the "wait channel" from main thread to the preempt
thread right at the start.

5655aab079 migration: Postpone postcopy preempt channel to be after main
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.

d6f74fd12e migration: Rework multi-channel checks on URI
The whole idea of multi-channel checks was not properly done, IMHO.

Currently we check multi-channel in a lot of places, but actually that's
not needed because we only need to check it right after we get the URI and
that should be it.

If the URI check succeeded, we should never need to check it again because
we must have it.  If it check fails, we should fail immediately on either
the qmp_migrate or qmp_migrate_incoming, instead of failingg it later after
the connection established.

Neither should we fail any set capabiliities like what we used to do here:

5ad15e8614 ("migration: allow enabling mutilfd for specific protocol only", 2021-10-19)

Because logically the URI will only be set later after the capability is
set, so it doesn't make a lot of sense to check the URI type when setting
the capability, because we're checking the cap with an old URI passed in,
and that may not even be the URI we're going to use later.

This patch mostly reverted all such checks for before, dropping the
variable migrate_allow_multi_channels and helpers.  Instead, add a common
helper to check URI for multi-channels for either qmp_migrate and
qmp_migrate_incoming and that should do all the proper checks.  The failure
will only trigger with the "migrate" or "migrate_incoming" command, or when
user specified "-incoming xxx" where "xxx" is not "defer".

6720c2b327 migration: check magic value for deciding the mapping of channels
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.

f0afaf6ce4 migration: Enable TLS for preempt channel
This patch is based on the async preempt channel creation.  It continues
wiring up the new channel with TLS handshake to destionation when enabled.

Note that only the src QEMU needs such operation; the dest QEMU does not
need any change for TLS support due to the fact that all channels are
established synchronously there, so all the TLS magic is already properly
handled by migration_tls_channel_process_incoming().

d0edb8a173 migration: Create the postcopy preempt channel asynchronously
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.

60bb3c5871 migration: Postcopy recover with preempt enabled
To allow postcopy recovery, the ram fast load (preempt-only) dest QEMU thread
needs similar handling on fault tolerance.  When ram_load_postcopy() fails,
instead of stopping the thread it halts with a semaphore, preparing to be
kicked again when recovery is detected.

A mutex is introduced to make sure there's no concurrent operation upon the
socket.  To make it simple, the fast ram load thread will take the mutex during
its whole procedure, and only release it if it's paused.  The fast-path socket
will be properly released by the main loading thread safely when there's
network failures during postcopy with that mutex held.

d5c8f2afe8 migration: Enlarge postcopy recovery to capture !-EIO too
We used to have quite a few places making sure -EIO happened and that's the
only way to trigger postcopy recovery.  That's based on the assumption that
we'll only return -EIO for channel issues.

It'll work in 99.99% cases but logically that won't cover some corner cases.
One example is e.g. ram_block_from_stream() could fail with an interrupted
network, then -EINVAL will be returned instead of -EIO.

I remembered Dave Gilbert pointed that out before, but somehow this is
overlooked.  Neither did I encounter anything outside the -EIO error.

However we'd better touch that up before it triggers a rare VM data loss during
live migrating.

To cover as much those cases as possible, remove the -EIO restriction on
triggering the postcopy recovery, because even if it's not a channel failure,
we can't do anything better than halting QEMU anyway - the corpse of the
process may even be used by a good hand to dig out useful memory regions, or
the admin could simply kill the process later on.

77dadc3f83 migration: Introduce postcopy channels on dest node
Postcopy handles huge pages in a special way that currently we can only have
one "channel" to transfer the page.

It's because when we install pages using UFFDIO_COPY, we need to have the whole
huge page ready, it also means we need to have a temp huge page when trying to
receive the whole content of the page.

Currently all maintainance around this tmp page is global: firstly we'll
allocate a temp huge page, then we maintain its status mostly within
ram_load_postcopy().

To enable multiple channels for postcopy, the first thing we need to do is to
prepare N temp huge pages as caching, one for each channel.

Meanwhile we need to maintain the tmp huge page status per-channel too.

To give some example, some local variables maintained in ram_load_postcopy()
are listed; they are responsible for maintaining temp huge page status:

  - all_zero:     this keeps whether this huge page contains all zeros
  - target_pages: this counts how many target pages have been copied
  - host_page:    this keeps the host ptr for the page to install

Move all these fields to be together with the temp huge pages to form a new
structure called PostcopyTmpPage.  Then for each (future) postcopy channel, we
need one structure to keep the state around.

For vanilla postcopy, obviously there's only one channel.  It contains both
precopy and postcopy pages.

This patch teaches the dest migration node to start realize the possible number
of postcopy channels by introducing the "postcopy_channels" variable.  Its
value is calculated when setup postcopy on dest node (during POSTCOPY_LISTEN
phase).

Vanilla postcopy will have channels=1, but when postcopy-preempt capability is
enabled (in the future), we will boost it to 2 because even during partial
sending of a precopy huge page we still want to preempt it and start sending
the postcopy requested page right away (so we start to keep two temp huge
pages; more if we want to enable multifd).  In this patch there's a TODO marked
for that; so far the channels is always set to 1.

We need to send one "host huge page" on one channel only and we cannot split
them, because otherwise the data upon the same huge page can locate on more
than one channel so we need more complicated logic to manage.  One temp host
huge page for each channel will be enough for us for now.

Postcopy will still always use the index=0 huge page even after this patch.
However it prepares for the latter patches where it can start to use multiple
channels (which needs src intervention, because only src knows which channel we
should use).

9470c5e082 migration/postcopy: Handle RAMBlocks with a RamDiscardManager on the destination
Currently, when someone (i.e., the VM) accesses discarded parts inside a
RAMBlock with a RamDiscardManager managing the corresponding mapped memory
region, postcopy will request migration of the corresponding page from the
source. The source, however, will never answer, because it refuses to
migrate such pages with undefined content ("logically unplugged"): the
pages are never dirty, and get_queued_page() will consequently skip
processing these postcopy requests.

Especially reading discarded ("logically unplugged") ranges is supposed to
work in some setups (for example with current virtio-mem), although it
barely ever happens: still, not placing a page would currently stall the
VM, as it cannot make forward progress.

Let's check the state via the RamDiscardManager (the state e.g.,
of virtio-mem is migrated during precopy) and avoid sending a request
that will never get answered. Place a fresh zero page instead to keep
the VM working. This is the same behavior that would happen
automatically without userfaultfd being active, when accessing virtual
memory regions without populated pages -- "populate on demand".

For now, there are valid cases (as documented in the virtio-mem spec) where
a VM might read discarded memory; in the future, we will disallow that.
Then, we might want to handle that case differently, e.g., warning the
user that the VM seems to be mis-behaving.

898ba906cc migration/ram: Handle RAM block resizes during postcopy
Resizing while migrating is dangerous and does not work as expected.
The whole migration code works with the usable_length of a ram block and
does not expect this value to change at random points in time.

In the case of postcopy, relying on used_length is racy as soon as the
guest is running. Also, when used_length changes we might leave the
uffd handler registered for some memory regions, reject valid pages
when migrating and fail when sending the recv bitmap to the source.

Resizing can be trigger *after* (but not during) a reset in
ACPI code by the guest
- hw/arm/virt-acpi-build.c:acpi_ram_update()
- hw/i386/acpi-build.c:acpi_ram_update()

Let's remember the original used_length in a separate variable and
use it in relevant postcopy code. Make sure to update it when we resize
during precopy, when synchronizing the RAM block sizes with the source.

54aa3de72e qapi: Use QAPI_LIST_PREPEND() where possible
Anywhere we create a list of just one item or by prepending items
(typically because order doesn't matter), we can use
QAPI_LIST_PREPEND().  But places where we must keep the list in order
by appending remain open-coded until later patches.

Note that as a side effect, this also performs a cleanup of two minor
issues in qga/commands-posix.c: the old code was performing
 new = g_malloc0(sizeof(*ret));
which 1) is confusing because you have to verify whether 'new' and
'ret' are variables with the same type, and 2) would conflict with C++
compilation (not an actual problem for this file, but makes
copy-and-paste harder).

cc5ab87200 migration: Unify reset of last_rb on destination node when recover
When postcopy recover happens, we need to reset last_rb after each return of
postcopy_pause_fault_thread() because that means we just got the postcopy
migration continued.

Unify this reset to the place right before we want to kick the fault thread
again, when we get the command MIG_CMD_POSTCOPY_RESUME from source.

This is actually more than that - because the main thread on destination will
now be able to call migrate_send_rp_req_pages_pending() too, so the fault
thread is not the only user of last_rb now.  Move the reset earlier will allow
the first call to migrate_send_rp_req_pages_pending() to use the reset value
even if called from the main thread.

(NOTE: this is not a real fix to 0c26781c09 mentioned below, however it is just
 a mark that when picking up 0c26781c09 we'd better have this one too; the real
 fix will come later)

8f8bfffcf1 migration: Maintain postcopy faulted addresses
Maintain a list of faulted addresses on the destination host for which we're
waiting on.  This is implemented using a GTree rather than a real list to make
sure even there're plenty of vCPUs/threads that are faulting, the lookup will
still be fast with O(log(N)) (because we'll do that after placing each page).
It should bring a slight overhead, but ideally that shouldn't be a big problem
simply because in most cases the requested page list will be short.

Actually we did similar things for postcopy blocktime measurements.  This patch
didn't use that simply because:

  (1) blocktime measurement is towards vcpu threads only, but here we need to
      record all faulted addresses, including main thread and external
      thread (like, DPDK via vhost-user).

  (2) blocktime measurement will require UFFD_FEATURE_THREAD_ID, but here we
      don't want to add that extra dependency on the kernel version since not
      necessary.  E.g., we don't need to know which thread faulted on which
      page, we also don't care about multiple threads faulting on the same
      page.  But we only care about what addresses are faulted so waiting for a
      page copying from src.

  (3) blocktime measurement is not enabled by default.  However we need this by
      default especially for postcopy recover.

Another thing to mention is that this patch introduced a new mutex to serialize
the receivedmap and the page_requested tree, however that serialization does
not cover other procedures like UFFDIO_COPY.

d73415a315 qemu/atomic.h: rename atomic_ to qatomic_
clang's C11 atomic_fetch_*() functions only take a C11 atomic type
pointer argument. QEMU uses direct types (int, etc) and this causes a
compiler error when a QEMU code calls these functions in a source file
that also included <stdatomic.h> via a system header file:

  $ CC=clang CXX=clang++ ./configure ... && make
  ../util/async.c:79:17: error: address argument to atomic operation must be a pointer to _Atomic type ('unsigned int *' invalid)

Avoid using atomic_*() names in QEMU's atomic.h since that namespace is
used by <stdatomic.h>. Prefix QEMU's APIs with 'q' so that atomic.h
and <stdatomic.h> can co-exist. I checked /usr/include on my machine and
searched GitHub for existing "qatomic_" users but there seem to be none.

This patch was generated using:

  $ git grep -h -o '\<atomic\(64\)\?_[a-z0-9_]\+' include/qemu/atomic.h | \
    sort -u >/tmp/changed_identifiers
  $ for identifier in $(</tmp/changed_identifiers); do
        sed -i "s%\<$identifier\>%q$identifier%g" \
            $(git grep -I -l "\<$identifier\>")
    done

I manually fixed line-wrap issues and misaligned rST tables.

2d49bacda0 migration/postcopy: postpone setting PostcopyState to END
There are two places to call function postcopy_ram_incoming_cleanup()

    postcopy_ram_listen_thread on migration success
    loadvm_postcopy_handle_listen one setup failure

On success, the vm will never accept another migration. On failure,
PostcopyState is transited from LISTENING to END and would be checked in
qemu_loadvm_state_main(). If PostcopyState is RUNNING, migration would
be paused and retried.

Currently PostcopyState is set to END in function
postcopy_ram_incoming_cleanup(). With above analysis, we can take this
step out and postpone this till the end of listen thread to indicate the
listen thread is done.

This is a preparation patch for later cleanup.

810cf2bbd4 migration/postcopy: make PostcopyDiscardState a static variable
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
