[libvirt] [PATCH] qemu: Shared or readonly disks are always safe wrt migration

No matter what cache mode is used, readonly disks are always safe wrt migration. Shared disks are required to be readonly or to disable host-side cache, which makes them safe as well. --- src/qemu/qemu_migration.c | 8 +++++--- 1 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/qemu/qemu_migration.c b/src/qemu/qemu_migration.c index 84037e4..5c4297c 100644 --- a/src/qemu/qemu_migration.c +++ b/src/qemu/qemu_migration.c @@ -828,10 +828,12 @@ qemuMigrationIsSafe(virDomainDefPtr def) for (i = 0 ; i < def->ndisks ; i++) { virDomainDiskDefPtr disk = def->disks[i]; - /* shared && !readonly implies cache=none */ + /* Our code elsewhere guarantees shared disks are either readonly (in + * which case cache mode doesn't matter) or used with cache=none */ if (disk->src && - disk->cachemode != VIR_DOMAIN_DISK_CACHE_DISABLE && - (disk->cachemode || !disk->shared || disk->readonly)) { + !disk->shared && + !disk->readonly && + disk->cachemode != VIR_DOMAIN_DISK_CACHE_DISABLE) { int cfs; if ((cfs = virStorageFileIsClusterFS(disk->src)) == 1) continue; -- 1.7.8.5
