Series nvdimm: support MAP_SYNC for memory-backend-file | expand

Commit Message

Haozhong Zhang Jan. 11, 2018, 2:22 p.m. UTC 
When a file supporting DAX is used as vNVDIMM backend, mmap it with
MAP_SYNC flag in addition can guarantee the persistence of guest write
to the backend file without other QEMU actions (e.g., periodic fsync()
by QEMU).

A OnOffAuto parameter 'sync' is added to qemu_ram_mmap():

- If sync == ON_OFF_AUTO_ON, qemu_ram_mmap() will try to pass MAP_SYNC
  to mmap(). It will then fail if the host OS or the backend file do
  not support MAP_SYNC, or MAP_SYNC is conflict with other flags.

- If sync == ON_OFF_AUTO_OFF, qemu_ram_mmap() will never pass MAP_SYNC
  to mmap().

- If sync == ON_OFF_AUTO_AUTO, and
  * if the host OS and the backend file support MAP_SYNC, and MAP_SYNC
    is not conflict with other flags, qemu_ram_mmap() will work as if
    sync == ON_OFF_AUTO_ON.
  * otherwise, qemu_ram_mmap() will work as if sync == ON_OFF_AUTO_OFF.
