Some lock managers associate state with leases, allowing a process to temporarily release its leases, and re-acquire them later, safe in the knowledge that no other process has acquired + released the leases in between. This is already used between suspend/resume operations, and must also be used across migration. This passes the lockstate in the migration cookie. If the lock manager uses lockstate, then it becomes compulsory to use the migration v3 protocol to get the cookie support. * src/qemu/qemu_driver.c: Validate that migration v2 protocol is not used if lock manager needs state transfer * src/qemu/qemu_migration.c: Transfer lock state in migration cookie XML
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
