[Qemu-devel] [PATCH V6 09/17] COLO: Flush memory data from ram cache

[Zhang Chen]

From: zhanghailiang <address@hidden>

During the time of VM's running, PVM may dirty some pages, we will transfer
PVM's dirty pages to SVM and store them into SVM's RAM cache at next checkpoint
time. So, the content of SVM's RAM cache will always be same with PVM's memory
after checkpoint.

Instead of flushing all content of PVM's RAM cache into SVM's MEMORY,
we do this in a more efficient way:
Only flush any page that dirtied by PVM since last checkpoint.
In this way, we can ensure SVM's memory same with PVM's.

Besides, we must ensure flush RAM cache before load device state.
