The patch set supports migration dirty bitmap support implementation for arm-kvm. Spliting of pmd's to pte's as suggested is implemented on demand when migration is started. I tested it on 4-way SMP ARMv7, with SMP guests. 2GB VMs with dirty shared memory segments upto 1.8 GB and relatively fast update rates 16Mb/5mS. Next course of action would be rmap support which scales much better on bigger systems. Although one think that confused me, x86 migrations were sometimes 10 to 15 times slower, I think it must be something wrong with my configuration.
