qemu: Memory pre-pinning support for RDMA migration
RDMA Live migration requires registering memory with the hardware, and thus QEMU offers a new 'capability' to pre-register / mlock() the guest memory in advance for higher RDMA performance before the migration begins. This capability is disabled by default, which means QEMU will register the memory with the hardware in an on-demand basis. This patch exposes this capability with the following example usage: virsh migrate --live --rdma-pin-all --migrateuri rdma://hostname domain qemu+ssh://hostname/system Signed-off-by: Michael R.

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. Daniel Veillard <veillard@redhat.com>
Description
Libvirt provides a portable, long term stable C API for managing the
virtualization technologies provided by many operating systems. It
includes support for QEMU, KVM, Xen, LXC, bhyve, Virtuozzo, VMware
vCenter and ESX, VMware Desktop, Hyper-V, VirtualBox and the POWER
Hypervisor.
