At the moment we have VMSTATE_STRUCT_ARRAY that requires
the field is declared as an array of fixed size.
We also have VMSTATE_STRUCT_VARRAY_UINT* that allows
a field declared as a pointer, but requires that the length
is a field member in the structure being loaded/saved.
VMSTATE_STRUCT_VARRAY_KNOWN is for arrays defined as pointers
yet we somehow know the length of.

Now that we guarantee the user doesn't have any enum values
beginning with a single underscore, we can use that for our
own purposes. Renaming ENUM_MAX to ENUM__MAX makes it obvious
that the sentinel is generated.
This patch was mostly generated by applying a temporary patch:
|diff --git a/scripts/qapi.py b/scripts/qapi.py
|index e6d014b..b862ec9 100644
|--- a/scripts/qapi.py
|+++ b/scripts/qapi.py
|@@ -1570,6 +1570,7 @@ const char *const %(c_name)s_lookup[] = {
| max_index = c_enum_const(name, 'MAX', prefix)
| ret += mcgen('''
| [%(max_index)s] = NULL,
|+// %(max_index)s
| };
| ''',
| max_index=max_index)
then running:
$ cat qapi-{types,event}.c tests/test-qapi-types.c |
sed -n 's,^// \(.*\)MAX,s|\1MAX|\1_MAX|g,p' > list
$ git grep -l _MAX | xargs sed -i -f list
The only things not generated are the changes in scripts/qapi.py.
Rejecting enum members named 'MAX' is now useless, and will be dropped
in the next patch.

Prior to servicing userfault requests we must ensure we've not got
huge pages in the area that might include non-transferred memory,
since a hugepage could incorrectly mark the whole huge page as present.
We mark the area as non-huge page (nhp) just before we perform
discards; the discard code now tells us to discard any areas
that haven't been sent (as well as any that are redirtied);
any already formed transparent-huge-pages get fragmented
by this discard process if they cotnain any discards.
Transparent huge pages that have been entirely transferred
and don't contain any discards are not broken by this mechanism;
they stay as huge pages.
By starting postcopy after a full precopy pass, many of the pages
then stay as huge pages; this is important for maintaining performance
after the end of the migration.

The loading of a device state (during postcopy) may access guest
memory that's still on the source machine and thus might need
a page fill; split off a separate thread that handles the incoming
page data so that the original incoming migration code can finish
off the device data.

userfaultfd is a Linux syscall that gives an fd that receives a stream
of notifications of accesses to pages registered with it and allows
the program to acknowledge those stalls and tell the accessing
thread to carry on.
We convert the requests from the kernel into messages back to the
source asking for the pages.

The save_live_complete_precopy method is called on

devices during a postcopy migration at the transition.
The save_live_complete_postcopy method is called at
the end of postcopy for all postcopiable devices.

Once postcopy is enabled (with migrate_set_capability), the migration
will still start on precopy mode. To cause a transition into postcopy
the:
migrate_start_postcopy
command must be issued. Postcopy will start sometime after this
(when it's next checked in the migration loop).
Issuing the command before migration has started will error,
and issuing after it has finished is ignored.
