[PATCH RESEND] qemu: shared disks with cache=directsync should be safe for migration

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

 



From: Hao Peng <peng.hao2@xxxxxxxxxx>

At present shared disks can be migrated with either readonly or cache=none. But
cache=directsync should be safe for migration, because both cache=directsync and cache=none
don't use the host page cache, and cache=direct write through qemu block layer cache.
