This reverts commit 61f2b6ba5fdef0613d6351b99913b5ef468144ce and most of commit d8916dc8e2f612ab3ce46f32c4bfeb0bd73f6007, which effectively brings back commit ef1065cf5acad13767c054758cbe7f4e8af5d241 written by Jim Fehlig: The qemu migration speed default is 32MiB/s as defined in migration.c /* Migration speed throttling */ static int64_t max_throttle = (32 << 20); There's no need to throttle migration when targeting a file, so set migration speed to unlimited prior to migration, and restore to libvirt default value after migration. Default units is MB for migrate_set_speed monitor command, so (INT64_MAX / (1024 * 1024)) is used for unlimited migration speed. This was reverted because migration to file could not be canceled and even monitored since qemu was not processing any monitor commands until the migration finished. This is now different as we make sure the file descriptor we pass to qemu is able to properly report EAGAIN. Recent qemu changes might have helped as well. I tested managedsave with this patch in and indeed, it is 10x faster while I can still monitor its progress.
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.
