[v2,00/10] Multifd Migration Compression

Message

Juan Quintela Dec. 18, 2019, 2:01 a.m. UTC

[v2]
- rebase on top of previous arguments posted to the list
- introduces zlib compression
- introduces zstd compression

Please help if you know anything about zstd/zlib compression.

This puts compression on top of multifd. Advantages about current
compression:

- We copy all pages in a single packet and then compress the whole
  thing.

- We reuse the compression stream for all the packets sent through the
  same channel.

- We can select nocomp/zlib/zstd levels of compression.

Please, review.

  migration: Increase default number of multifd channels to 16
  migration-test: Add migration multifd test
  migration-test: introduce functions to handle string parameters
