[PATCH v2 3/3] migration/multifd: Warn user when zerocopy not working


From: Leonardo Bras
Subject: [PATCH v2 3/3] migration/multifd: Warn user when zerocopy not working
Date: Fri, 1 Jul 2022 12:59:36 -0300

Some errors, like the lack of Scatter-Gather support by the network
interface(NETIF_F_SG) may cause sendmsg(...,MSG_ZEROCOPY) to fail on using
zero-copy, which causes it to fall back to the default copying mechanism.

After each full dirty-bitmap scan there should be a zero-copy flush
happening, which checks for errors each of the previous calls to
sendmsg(...,MSG_ZEROCOPY). If all of them failed to use zero-copy, then
increment zero_copy_copied migration stat to let the user know about it.
