An obsolete wrapper function with a workaround was removed entirely,
without restoring the call it wrapped.
Without this, the guest is stuck after savevm/loadvm.
I'd note that this only affects guests that have actually negotiated
XICS, so guests using ic-mode=xive are safe.
Since this affected only guests using XICS, would it be a better idea to
mention this explicitly in commit log as well (?
With this patch, backward migration to QEMU versions >= 9.2 is
broken. Which I can only assume is ok, since the hard break (vmstate
gets rejected) is better than weird post-migration hangs.
If the PPC folks can spot a scenario where migration would provide
reasonable results even without the emulated interrupt controller state
being migrated, then we'll need a compat property for this.
Also, a 9.2 guest cannot move to a more recent QEMU version without a
reboot. If this is an important scenario, then the new QEMU needs to
provide some compatibility knob.
Gautam, Glenn - thoughts on above comments?
Thanks for the patch.
regards,
Harsh
