From 2ebeaec012b4e5695612774c44f14c61ab46c72c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" Date: Wed, 24 Aug 2016 18:15:46 +0100 Subject: Postcopy vs xbzrle: Don't send xbzrle pages once in postcopy [for 2.8] xbzrle relies on reading pages that have already been sent to the destination and then applying the modifications; we can't do that in postcopy because the destination may well have modified the page already or the page has been discarded. I already didn't allow reception of xbzrle pages, but I forgot to add the test to stop them being sent. Enabling both xbzrle and postcopy can make some sense; if you think that your migration might finish if you have xbzrle, then when it doesn't complete you flick over to postcopy and stop xbzrle'ing.
