Hello, Dr. Gilbert!
As I understand this is not a complete realization of post-copy stage of
migration, but only realization of ram post-copy.. I need to implement
post-copy migration of block-dirty-bitmaps. And it should work
with/without ram post-copy. Did you plan a possibility of post-copying
something except ram? If yes, can you please help me with an interface?
Should I implement separate thread like postcopy_ram_listen_thread and
other things, or something may be reused?

This is the 9th cut of my version of postcopy.
The userfaultfd linux kernel code is now in the upstream kernel
tree, and so 4.3 can be used without modification.
This qemu series can be found at:
https://github.com/orbitfp7/qemu.git
on the wp3-postcopy-v9 tag
Testing status:
* Tested heavily on x86
* Smoke tested on aarch64 (so it does work on different page sizes)
This work has been partially funded by the EU Orbit project:
see http://www.orbitproject.eu/about/
v9
Almost all of the changes are changes from review comments, and most are
minor.
The following are new patches, mostly split out from earlier patches
(The exception being adding userfaultfd.h header back in - which was in v5
but we took out, but is needed again due to 1842bdfd)
04/56 Move page_size_init earlier
08/56 qemu_ram_block_by_name
12/56 Factor out host_from_stream_offset call and check
15/56 Add Linux userfaultfd.h header back
21/56 migration_is_setup_or_active
30/56 migration_completion: Take current state
34/56 Maintain unsentmap
The previous patches 03,10,13,36/54 went in upstream already.
Fix for assert using hotplug (Thanks Bharata for spotting that)
Fix for migrate_cancel a second time
Rework for migration_bitmap_rcu after Denis's deadlock fix
Rework ram_load into a separate postcopy loop
The 'sentmap' is now an 'unsentmap' - this saves a complement step at the end
The unsentmap creation is now split into a separate patch
The unsentmap is now stored in the RCU structure (although it can't
really resize during the migrate)
Fix for block migration
still not a suggested combination.
Minor:
trace_savevm_send_open_return_path added
split migration_is_active function into separate patch and made
migration_is_setup_or_active
move file reads into migrate_handle_advise and migrate_handle_packaged
use of MIN in send-packaged-chunk
migration_thread_started -> migration_thread_running
updated qemu_get_buffer_in_place with Juan's version (and size_t'ified it)
split the host_from_stream_offset change into a separate patch
'ram_load: Factor out host_from_stream_offset call and check'
split out ram_find_block_by_id into a separate patch and now
called qemu_ram_block_by_name
postcopy_discard_send_range etc now take start/length rather than
start/end
(also added another trace)
split ram_save_host_page into ram_save_host_page/ram_save_target_page
split host page cleanup function into a core that handles both passes
