This patch series implements two optimizations: 1) transfer pages in chuncks between the guest and host; 2) transfer the guest unused pages to the host so that they can be skipped to migrate in live migration.
Please read each patch commit log for details.
Changes: v7->v8: 1) Use only one chunk format, instead of two. 2) re-write the virtio-balloon implementation patch. 3) commit changes 4) patch re-org
Liang Li (4): virtio-balloon: deflate via a page list virtio-balloon: VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_CHUNK_TRANSFER mm: add inerface to offer info about unused pages virtio-balloon: VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_HOST_REQ_VQ
