[pve-devel] [PATCH v2 qemu-server 0/9] rework memory hotplug + virtiomem

[Alexandre Derumier <aderumier@odiso.com>]

This patch series rework the current memory hotplug + virtiomem.

memory option now have extra options:

memory: [[current=]<integer>] [,max=<enum>] [,virtio=<1|0>]
ex: memory: current=1024,max=131072,virtio=1


patches 1-2: add a memory parser

patches 3-7: add the max option with 64 static dimm hotplug

for classic memory hotplug, when maxmemory is defined,
we use 64 fixed size dimm.
The max option is a multiple of 64GB.

patches 8-9: add virtio-mem

The virtio option enable new virtio-mem support,
instead of plugging dimm, it's add/removed block inside
big dimm.
virtio-mem can use 32000 blocks, the blocksize is compute from
max memory.


Changelog v2:

update differents patches based on Fiona comments.
(I have send 2 others mails with comments not yet addressed)

Biggest change is on virtio-mem, instead of trying to have same amount of memory
on each virtiomem (some block could be unmovable and break unplug),
we try to balance/dispatch remaining block on other available virtiomems.

Also, the minimum blocksize supported by linux guest os is 4MB currently,
even if virtiomem can use 2MB on qemu side.

Patch10 with hotplug fix has be merged in others patches.


Alexandre Derumier (9):
  test: add memory tests
  add memory parser
  memory: add get_static_mem
  config: memory: add 'max' option
  memory: get_max_mem: use config memory max
  memory: use 64 slots && static dimm size when max is defined
  test: add memory-max tests
  memory: add virtio-mem support
