[PATCH 0/8] logically memory hotplug via guest agent

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Logically memory hotplug via guest agent, by enabling/disabling memory blocks.
The corresponding qga commands are: 'guest-get-memory-blocks',
'guest-set-memory-blocks' and 'guest-get-memory-block-info'.

detailed flow:
    1 get memory block list, each member has 'phy-index', 'online' and 'can-offline' parameters
    2 get memory block size, normally 128MB or 256MB for most OSes
    3 convert the target memory size to memory block number, and see if there's enough memory
      blocks to be set online/offline.
    4 update the memory block list info, and let guest agent to set memory blocks online/offline.


Note that because we hotplug memory logically by online/offline MEMORY BLOCKS,
and each memory block has a size much bigger than KiB, there's a deviation
with the range of (0, block_size). block_size may be 128MB or 256MB or etc.,
it differs on different OSes.
