Loading of a VFIO device's data can take a substantial amount of time as the device may need to allocate resources, prepare internal data structures, etc. This can increase migration downtime, especially for VFIO devices with a lot of resources. To solve this, VFIO migration uAPI defines "initial bytes" as part of its precopy data stream. Initial bytes can be used in various ways to improve VFIO migration performance. For example, it can be used to transfer device metadata to pre-allocate resources in the destination. However, for this to work we need to make sure that all initial bytes are sent and loaded in the destination before the source VM is stopped. Use migration precopy initial data capability to make sure a VFIO device's initial bytes are sent and loaded in the destination before the source stops the VM and attempts to complete the migration. This can significantly reduce migration downtime.
