When a total ordering between multiple atomic variables is not required
then use Ordering::Acquire with atomic loads and Ordering::Release with
atomic stores.
This will improve performance as this does not require a memory fence
on x86_64 which Ordering::SeqCst will use.
Add a comment to the code in the vCPU handling code where it operates on
multiple atomics to explain why Ordering::SeqCst is required.

This interface is used by the vCPU thread to delegate responsibility for
handling MMIO/PIO operations and to support different approaches than a
VM exit.
During profiling I found that we were spending 13.75% of the boot CPU
uage acquiring access to the object holding the VmmOps via
ArcSwap::load_full()
13.75% 6.02% vcpu0 cloud-hypervisor [.] arc_swap::ArcSwapAny<T,S>::load_full

---arc_swap::ArcSwapAny<T,S>::load_full

--13.43%--<hypervisor::kvm::KvmVcpu as hypervisor::cpu::Vcpu>::run
std::sys_common::backtrace::__rust_begin_short_backtrace
core::ops::function::FnOnce::call_once{{vtable-shim}}
std::sys::unix:🧵:Thread:🆕:thread_start
However since the object implementing VmmOps does not need to be mutable
and it is only used from the vCPU side we can change the ownership to
being a simple Arc<> that is passed in when calling create_vcpu().
This completely removes the above CPU usage from subsequent profiles.

Prior to sending the memory the full state is not needed only the
configuration. This is sufficient to create the appropriate structures
in the guest and have the memory allocations ready for filling.
Update the protocol documentation to add a separate config step and move
the state to after the memory is transferred. As the VM is created in a
separate step to restoring it the requires a slightly different
constructor as well as saving the VM object for the subsequent commands.

In order to do this we must extend the MemoryManager API to add the
ability to specify the tracking of the dirty pages when creating the
userspace mappings and also keep track of the userspace mappings that
have been created for RAM regions.
Currently the dirty pages are collected into ranges based on a block
level of 64 pages. The algorithm could be tweaked to create smaller
ranges but for now if any page in the block of 64 is dirty the whole
block is added to the range.

In the context of saving the memory regions content through snapshot,
using the term "backing file" brings confusion with the actual backing
file that might back the memory mapping.
To avoid such conflicting naming, the 'backing_file' field from the
MemoryRegion structure gets replaced with 'content', as this is
designating the potential file containing the memory region data.

Use GuestRegionMmap::read_exact_from() to ensure that all of the file is
read into the guest. This addresses an issue where
GuestRegionMmap::read_from() was only copying the first 2GiB of the
memory and so lead to snapshot-restore was failing when the guest RAM
was 2GiB or greater.
This change also propagates any error from the copying upwards.

When restoring if a region of RAM is backed by anonymous memory i.e from
memfd_create() then copy the contents of the ram from the file that has
been saved to disk.
Previously the code would map the memory from that file into the guest
using a MAP_PRIVATE mapping. This has the effect of
minimising the restore time but provides an issue where the restored VM
does not have the same structure as the snapshotted VM, in particular
memory is backed by files in the restored VM that were anonymously
backed in the original.
This creates two problems:
* The snapshot data is mapped from files for the pages of the guest
which prevents the storage from being reclaimed.
* When snapshotting again the guest memory will not be correctly saved
as it will have looked like it was backed by a file so it will not be
written to disk but as it is a MAP_PRIVATE mapping the changes will
never be written to the disk again. This results in incorrect
behaviour.

The standalone `--balloon` parameter being fully functional at this

parameter.
Signed-off-by: Sebastien Boeuf <sebastien.boeuf@intel.com>
Now that we have a new dedicated way of asking for a balloon through the
CLI and the REST API, we can move all the balloon code to the device
manager. This allows us to simplify the memory manager, which is already
quite complex.
It also simplifies the behavior of the balloon resizing command. Instead
of providing the expected size for the RAM, which is complex when memory
zones are involved, it now expects the balloon size. This is a much more
straightforward behavior as it really resizes the balloon to the desired
size. Additionally to the simplication, the benefit of this approach is
that it does not need to be tied to the memory manager at all.

The snasphot/restore feature is not working because some CPU states are
not properly saved, which means they can't be restored later on.
First thing, we ensure the CPUID is stored so that it can be properly
restored later. The code is simplified and pushed down to the hypervisor
crate.
Second thing, we identify for each vCPU if the Hyper-V SynIC device is
emulated or not. In case it is, that means some specific MSRs will be
set by the guest. These MSRs must be saved in order to properly restore
the VM.

When shutting down a VM using VFIO, the following error has been
detected:
vfio-ioctls/src/vfio_device.rs:312 -- Could not delete VFIO group:
KvmSetDeviceAttr(Error(9))
After some investigation, it appears the KVM device file descriptor used
for removing a VFIO group was already closed. This is coming from the
Rust sequence of Drop, from the DeviceManager all the way down to
VfioDevice.
Because the DeviceManager owns passthrough_device, which is effectively
a KVM device file descriptor, when the DeviceManager is dropped, the
passthrough_device follows, with the effect of closing the KVM device
file descriptor. Problem is, VfioDevice has not been dropped yet and it
still needs a valid KVM device file descriptor.
That's why the simple way to fix this issue coming from Rust dropping
all resources is to make Linux accountable for it by duplicating the
file descriptor. This way, even when the passthrough_device is dropped,
the KVM file descriptor is closed, but a duplicated instance is still
valid and owned by the VfioContainer.
