[PATCH COLO-Frame v6 00/31] COarse-grain LOck-stepping(COLO) Virtual Machines for Non-stop Service

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

 



This is the 6th version of COLO, here is only COLO frame part, include: VM checkpoint,
failover, proxy API, block replication API, not include block replication.
The block part is sent as a separate series.

As usuall, we provide two branch which one is 'colo-v1.3-basic', 
and the other is 'colo-v1.3-developing', The 'basic' branch is exactly the same
with this patch series, which has basic features of COLO.
We will keep this series simple as possible, just for easy review.

You can get the newest integrated qemu colo patches from github (Include Block part):
https://github.com/coloft/qemu/commits/colo-v1.3-basic
https://github.com/coloft/qemu/commits/colo-v1.3-developing (more features)
Please NOTE the difference between these two branch.
Colo-v1.3-developing has some optimization in the process of checkpoint, including: 
   1) separate ram and device save/load process to reduce size of extra memory
      used during checkpoint
   2) live migrate part of dirty pages to slave during sleep time.
Besides, we add some statistic info in 'developing' branch, which you can get these stat
info by using command 'info migrate'.

About how to test COLO, Please reference to the follow link.
http://wiki.qemu.org/Features/COLO.

For the kernel part (colo proxy) of COLO, we have sent a RFC patch to kernel community:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2015/6/18/32

COLO is a totally new feature which is still in early stage, 
your comments and feedback are warmly welcomed.

TODO:
1. COLO function switch on/off
2. Optimize proxy part, include proxy script.
  1) Remove the limitation of forward network link.
  2) Reuse the nfqueue_entry and NF_STOLEN to enqueue skb
3. The capability of continuous FT

v6:
- Add a new qmp event 'COLO_EXIT' for COLO error, which is useful
  for users to get involved in failover verdict. 
- Support '-net nic' configure
- Fix segmentfault bug that triggered by running 'colo_lost_heartbeat' directly
  when VM is not in COLO state.
- Fix qemu abort bug that triggered by Startup another migration when in COLO state.
- Optimize some codes, especailly colo net part.
