[Xen-devel] [PATCH 2 of 2] Avoid vcpu migration of paused vcpus

[Juergen Gross <juergen.gross@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Currently offlining a cpu will migrate all vcpus which were active on that
cpu to another one, possibly breaking existing cpu affinities.

In case of an ACPI state change the cpus are taken offline and online later
(if not poweroff) while all domains are paused. There is no reason to
migrate the vcpus during offlining the cpus, as the cpus will be available
again when the domains are being unpaused.

This patch defers the migration check in case of paused vcpus or domains
by adding vcpu_arouse() to wake up a vcpu and check whether it must be
migrated to another cpu.
