Ping for this series.
I still keep thinking the dirty ring feature is something good to
have for libvirt.
qemu-6.1 has supported dirty ring feature and followed up with the
commit 0e21bf24 "support dirtyrate at the granualrity of vcpu",
which is a typical usage scenario of dirty ring. another usage
scenario may be the implementation of per-vcpu auto-converge during
live migration which is already being reviewed. so we can make full
use of dirty ring feature if libvirt supports. and any corrections
and comments about this series would be very appreciated.
Please review, Thanks!

v6
- rebase on master
v5,v4: blank, just make v6 be the the latest version.
v3
- rebase master and fix the confilict when apply
"conf: introduce dirty_ring_size in struct "_virDomainDef" to current
master.
v2
- split patchset into 4 patches
- leave out the tcg case when building commandline.
- handle the VIR_DOMAIN_KVM_DIRTY_RING case independently in ,
virDomainFeatureDefParse and virDomainDefFeaturesCheckABIStability,
do not integrate it with other cases...
- add dirty ring size check in virDomainDefFeaturesCheckABIStability
- modify zero checks on integers of dirty ring size in a explicit way.
- set the default value of dirty ring size in a post-parser callback.
- check the absence of kvm_feature in a explicit way.
- code clean of virTristateSwitchTypeToString function.
this version's modification base on Peter's advices mostly, thanks
a lot, please review !
v1
since qemu has introduced a dirty ring feature in 6.1.0, may be it's
the right time to introduce dirty ring in libvirt meanwhile.
this patch add feature named 'dirty-ring', which enable dirty ring
feature when starting vm. to try this out, three things has done
in this patchset:
- introduce QEMU_CAPS_ACCEL so the the libvirt can use it to select
the right option when specifying the accelerator type.
- switch the option "-machine accel=xxx" to "-accel xxx" when specifying
accelerator type once libvirt build QEMU command line, so that
dirty-ring-size property can be passed to qemu when start vm.
- introduce dirty_ring_size to hold the ring size configured by user
and pass dirty_ring_size when building qemu commandline if dirty
ring feature enabled.
though dirty ring is per-cpu logically, the size of dirty ring is
registered by 'struct kvm' in QEMU. so we would like to place the
dirty_ring_size as a property of vm in Libvirt as the QEMU do.
the dirty ring feature is disabled by default, and if enabled, the
default value of ring size if 4096 if size not configured.
for more details about dirty ring and "-accel" option, please refer to:

please review, Thanks!
Best Regards !
