[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 12/12] RFC: add explicit can_migrate to vhost_user_backend_dev_init()

[Marc-André Lureau]

In general, there is not much support for migrating a vhost-user slave
process. Many virtio devices however implement vmsd, and the
vhost-user instances (as child objects) may be migrated.

Since there is no other support at this point, the slave is assumed to
be state less (outside of VM state), or using a migration method
outside of qemu migration stream.

Since this is not well specified, add a common blocker for the
VhostUserBackend users (vhost-user-input and upcoming gpu will use
it).

RFC since I am not sure that's what Michael had in mind when
requesting such blocker.
