Have done the test, it's more stable than before but still get small deltas in
cpu section. I didn't find any interesting difference by checking the
CPUX86State in the dest in kvm_arch_load_regs(), any thought on this?

BTW, looks like the error_code was missed in saving the cpu state:

So which offsets are different?

Post this as a separate patch please.

And just to clarify: no more deltas in the memory section?

Yes.

And the offset for cpu section is 1161-1165 and sometimes I get deltas for ide
section at offset 295 and 314.

As far as I can say the state is in
target-i386/machine.c
static const VMStateDescription vmstate_cpu.
Need to do some math to find this:

I think this is mtrr_var, but maybe my math is off.
I would sugest printing out the state and see
what is changed exactly.

I see that ide has some bh processing.  Most likely that starts io after
vmstop?  I suggest adding a vm state handler and checking vm status in
ide_dma_restart_bh.

Start with an assert, just for debug.

Also, what if we use virtio-blk?

Try printing CPUX86State through gdb and the filed used to do the save/restore
are the same. Have done the check for mtrr_var and the value are same for both
src and dst. And looks like it was never used by kvm.

One byte delta for virtio-blk section at offset 377. And also get delta for ide
section ( so I didn't try your patch of stopping bh of ide becuse for virtio-blk
we even do not use ide ).
