However, the entire migration is done by a single qemu monitor command, and it is that monitor command that further divides the work into phases such as pre-copy and stop-copy. > > I want to know whether qemudDomainMigratePerform and > qemudDomainMigrateFinish2 directly map to the pre-copy and stop-copy phase? > or the qemudDomainMigratePerform function performs both of them? The MigratePerform function is the one place that calls the qemu monitor command. I know there have been proposals upstream in qemu to add additional statistics in 'query-migrate' monitor command; perhaps there is still more work needed in libvirt to grab those additional statistics in a manner that can be exposed to the user. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
