	This patch introduces block migration called during live migration. Block are being copied to the destination in an async way. First the code will transfer the whole disk and then transfer all dirty blocks accumulted during the migration. Still need to improve transition from the iterative phase of migration to the end phase. For now transition will take place when all blocks transfered once, all the dirty blocks will be transfered during the end phase (guest is suspended). Changes from v4: - Global variabels moved to a global state structure allocated dynamically. - Minor coding style issues. - Poll block.c for tracking of dirty blocks instead of manage it here.

2009-08-24	Migration via unix sockets.	Chris Lalancette
	Implement migration via unix sockets. While you can fake this using exec and netcat, this involves forking another process and is generally not very nice. By doing this directly in qemu, we can avoid the copy through the external nc command. This is useful for implementations (such as libvirt) that want to do "secure" migration; we pipe the data on the sending side into the unix socket, libvirt picks it up, encrypts it, and transports it, and then on the remote side libvirt decrypts it, dumps it to another unix socket, and feeds it into qemu. The implementation is straightforward and looks very similar to migration-exec.c and migration-tcp.c Signed-off-by: Chris Lalancette <clalance@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
