Hi,
Could anyone provide (or point me to) information on how KSM merging
behaves when performing live migrations? Does libvirt perform any
special work to trigger KSM scanning of the migrated pages?
That's probably a question better asked to the qemu folks; the most
libvirt would be able to do is pass a command line argument to qemu that
says whether qemu will enable or disable merging, but it is the qemu
process where the guest memory resides that would even need merging.
