Re: [libvirt] QEMU -M nvdimm=on and hotplug

BTW: I ran a migration from no nvdimm qemu to one that had -M nvdimm=on
and guest migrated happily. So looks like guest ABI is stable (or at
least stable enough not to crash). But since ACPI table is changed I
doubt that.
One example that may cause trouble is that
1/ Guest OS got a pointer to an ACPI table A on the source host (w/o nvdimm=on)
2/ After migrating to the destination host (w/ nvdimm=on), the
location of ACPI table A is occupied by NFIT. If guest OS tries to
access ACPI table A via the pointer in step 1/, then it will access
the wrong table.
Also, I found that hotunplug is not implemented yet?
So far there is no public specification defining NVDIMM hotunplug, so
we didn't implement it.
