[v4,11/16] migration/multifd: Don't send ram data during SYNC

Commit Message

Fabiano Rosas Aug. 23, 2024, 5:39 p.m. UTC

Skip saving and loading any ram data in the packet in the case of a
SYNC. This fixes a shortcoming of the current code which requires a
reset of the MultiFDPages_t fields right after the previous
pending_job finishes, otherwise the very next job might be a SYNC and
multifd_send_fill_packet() will put the stale values in the packet.

By not calling multifd_ram_fill_packet(), we can stop resetting
MultiFDPages_t in the multifd core and leave that to the client code.

Actually moving the reset function is not yet done because
pages->num==0 is used by the client code to determine whether the
MultiFDPages_t needs to be flushed. The subsequent patches will
replace that with a generic flag that is not dependent on
MultiFDPages_t.
