usb uses "yet another" way to make devices unmigratable.
static const VMStateDescription vmstate_usb_host = {
.name = "usb-host",
.unmigratable = 1,
};
So, we have "already" two ways to make a device unmigratable:
- calling register_device_unmigratable() (ivhs)
- definining in vmstate .unmigratable = 1
- and now your new way.
My point was that only one (or even two) should be enough.
Why two? because the .unmigratable way is very useful for devices that
haven't been made "migratable", but that are converted to qdev. Not
jthat this couldn't be "fixed" on registration with a call to
migrate_add_blocker.
Later, Juan.
