Live migration broken when under heavy IO

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

 



The basic issue is that:

migrate_fd_put_ready():    bdrv_flush_all();

Does:

block.c:

foreach block driver:
  drv->flush(bs);

Which in the case of raw, is just fsync(s->fd).

Any submitted request is not queued or flushed which will lead to the request being dropped after the live migration.

Is anyone working on fixing this? Does anyone have a clever idea how to fix this without just waiting for all IO requests to complete?
