This allows to easily tag devices as non-migratable,
so any attempt to migrate a virtual machine with the
device in question active will make migration fail.

That is just a more complicated way to do the same ;)
Wanna have a patch to zap it?

Ah, no, we can't, for ivshmem this isn't fixed but depends on the 
configuration, so a static flag in the VMStateDescription doesn't cut it.

cheers,

Right, but can we have some continuity at least between the two interfaces?

At least make the vmstate flag 'unmigratable' or rename the function to 
qdev_set_no_migrate().

BTW, should this be a vmstate flag or a qdev flag?

Anthony Liguori

Will rename the flag.

vmstate.  savevm.c doesn't look at the qdev tree.
