31bcbbb5be04c7036223ce680a12927f5e51dc77 vfio/migration: Implement VFIO migration protocol v2
Implement the basic mandatory part of VFIO migration protocol v2.
This includes all functionality that is necessary to support
VFIO_MIGRATION_STOP_COPY part of the v2 protocol.
The two protocols, v1 and v2, will co-exist and in the following patches
v1 protocol code will be removed.
There are several main differences between v1 and v2 protocols:
- VFIO device state is now represented as a finite state machine instead
of a bitmap.
- Migration interface with kernel is now done using VFIO_DEVICE_FEATURE
ioctl and normal read() and write() instead of the migration region.
- Pre-copy is made optional in v2 protocol. Support for pre-copy will be
added later on.
Detailed information about VFIO migration protocol v2 and its difference
compared to v1 protocol can be found here [1].
