When migrating a VM with 'migrate_set_capability postcopy-ram on'
a postcopy_state is set during the process, ending up with the
state POSTCOPY_INCOMING_END when the migration is over. This
postcopy_state is taken into account inside ram_load to check
how it will load the memory pages. This same ram_load is called when
in a loadvm command.
Inside ram_load, the logic to see if we're at postcopy_running state
is:
postcopy_running = postcopy_state_get() >= POSTCOPY_INCOMING_LISTENING
postcopy_state_get() returns this enum type:
typedef enum {
POSTCOPY_INCOMING_NONE = 0,
POSTCOPY_INCOMING_ADVISE,
POSTCOPY_INCOMING_DISCARD,
POSTCOPY_INCOMING_LISTENING,
POSTCOPY_INCOMING_RUNNING,
POSTCOPY_INCOMING_END
} PostcopyState;
In the case where ram_load is executed and postcopy_state is
POSTCOPY_INCOMING_END, postcopy_running will be set to 'true' and
ram_load will behave like a postcopy is in progress. This scenario isn't
achievable in a migration but it is reproducible when executing
savevm/loadvm after migrating with 'postcopy-ram on', causing loadvm
to fail with Error -22:
Source:
(qemu) migrate_set_capability postcopy-ram on
(qemu) migrate tcp:127.0.0.1:4444
Dest:

Unknown combination of migration flags: 0x4 (postcopy mode)
error while loading state for instance 0x0 of device 'ram'

This patch fixes this problem by changing the existing logic for
postcopy_advised and postcopy_running in ram_load, making them
'false' if we're at POSTCOPY_INCOMING_END state.
