[PATCH v1 0/4] virtio-mem: Support "x-ignore-shared" migration


From: David Hildenbrand
Subject: [PATCH v1 0/4] virtio-mem: Support "x-ignore-shared" migration
Date: Tue, 20 Jun 2023 15:03:50 +0200

Stumbling over "x-ignore-shared" migration support for virtio-mem on
my todo list, I remember talking to Dave G. a while ago about how
ram_block_discard_range() in MAP_PIRVATE file mappings is possibly
harmful when the file is used somewhere else -- for example, with VM
templating in multiple VMs.

This series adds a warning to ram_block_discard_range() in that problematic
case and adds "x-ignore-shared" migration support for virtio-mem, which
is pretty straight-forward. The last patch also documents how VM templating
interacts with virtio-mem.
