Anthony,
I incremented the version ID of 'vmstate_hpet' from 2 to 3 to make sure
that migrations from a QEMU process that is capable of 'driftfix' to a
QEMU process that is _not_ capable of 'driftfix' will fail. I assigned
version ID 3 to 'vmstate_hpet_timer' and to the new fields in there too
to indicate that adding those fields was the reason why the version ID
of 'vmstate_hpet' was incremented to 3.
As far as the flow of execution in vmstate_load_state() is concerned, I
think it does not matter whether the version ID of 'vmstate_hpet_timer'
and the new fields in there is 2 or 3 (as long as they are consistent).
When the 'while(field->name)' loop in vmstate_load_state() gets to the
following field in 'vmstate_hpet' ...
VMSTATE_STRUCT_VARRAY_UINT8(timer, HPETState, num_timers, 0,
vmstate_hpet_timer, HPETTimer),
... it calls itself recursively ...
if (field->flags & VMS_STRUCT) {
ret = vmstate_load_state(f, field->vmsd, addr, field->vmsd->version_id);
'field->vmsd->version_id' is the version ID of 'vmstate_hpet_timer' [1].
Hence 'vmstate_hpet_timer.version_id' is being checked against itself ...
if (version_id > vmsd->version_id) {
return -EINVAL;
}
... and the version IDs of the new fields are also being checked against
'vmstate_hpet_timer.version_id' ...
if ((field->field_exists &&
field->field_exists(opaque, version_id)) ||
(!field->field_exists &&
field->version_id <= version_id)) {
If you want me to change the version ID of 'vmstate_hpet_timer' and the
new fields in there from 3 to 2, I can do that.
Regards,
Uli
