RDMA-BASED STATE TRANSFER IN VIRTUAL MACHINE LIVE MIGRATION |
摘要 |
Systems and methods for RDMA-based state transfer in virtual machine live migration. An example method may comprise: determining, by a first computer system, that a memory block has been modified by a virtual machine undergoing live migration from the first computer system to a second computer system; designating the modified memory block for transfer via a remote direct memory access (RDMA) adapter to the second computer system; selecting, asynchronously with respect to the designating, a memory block from a plurality of memory blocks designated for RDMA transfer to the second computer system, wherein a sum of an amount of pinned physical memory in the first computer system and a size of the selected memory block does not exceed a pre-defined value; registering the selected memory block with the RDMA adapter; and transmitting the selected memory block to the second computer system via the RDMA adapter. |

1. A method, comprising:
determining, by a processor of a first computer system, that a memory block has been modified by a virtual machine undergoing live migration from the first computer system to a second computer system; designating the modified memory block for transfer via a remote direct memory access (RDMA) adapter to the second computer system; selecting, asynchronously with respect to the designating, a memory block from a plurality of memory blocks designated for RDMA transfer to the second computer system, wherein a sum of an amount of pinned physical memory in the first computer system and a size of the selected memory block does not exceed a pre-defined value; registering the selected memory block with the RDMA adapter; and transmitting the selected memory block to the second computer system via the RDMA adapter. |
