From: Michael Galaxy <mgalaxy@xxxxxxxxxx> CPR-based support for whole-hypervisor kexec-based live updates is making progress on qemu-devel. In support of this, we need NUMA to be support in these kinds of environments. To do this we use a technology called PMEM (persistent memory), which underpin the ability for CPR Live Updates to work so that QEMU memory can remain in RAM and be recovered after the kexec has completed. Our systems are highly NUMA-aware, and so this patch series enables NUMA awareness for live update and also allows live migrations to work. Further, we make a small change that allows live migrations to work between *non* PMEM-based systems and PMEM-based systems (and vice-versa). This allows for seemless upgrades from non-live-compatible systems to live-update-compatible sytems without any downtime. Michael Galaxy (5): qemu.conf changes to support multiple memory backend directories Update cleanup routines to handle multiple memory backing paths instead of just one.
