RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Dan Zheng 2017-01-16 02:55:38 UTC 
Description of problem:
Compress statistic information is missing when using --compressed --comp-methods mt --comp-mt-level --comp-mt-threads --comp-mt-dthreads options

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libvirt-2.5.0-1.virtcov.el7.x86_64
qemu-img-rhev-2.6.0-29.el7.x86_64
kernel-3.10.0-534.el7.x86_64


How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start a guest and migrate it with options
# virsh start rhel7.4
Domain rhel7.4 started

# virsh migrate --live --verbose --domain rhel7.4 --desturi qemu+ssh://<target_ip>/system --compressed --comp-methods mt --comp-mt-level 9 --comp-mt-threads 5 --comp-mt-dthreads 5
Migration: [100 %]

2. Show domjobinfo
# virsh domjobinfo rhel7.4 --completed
Job type:         Completed  
Time elapsed:     19636        ms
Time elapsed w/o network: 19636        ms

Data remaining:   0.000 B

Memory total:     1.126 GiB
Memory bandwidth: 14.444 MiB/s
Dirty rate:       0            pages/s
Iteration:        4          
Constant pages:   221351      
Normal pages:     76372      
Normal data:      298.328 MiB
Total downtime:   232          ms
Downtime w/o network: 232          ms
Setup time:       27           ms

3. While the compress statistic info will be shown when only --compressed is used.
# virsh migrate --live --verbose --compressed --domain rhel7.4 --desturi qemu+ssh://<target_ip>/system
Migration: [100 %]

# virsh domjobinfo rhel7.4 --completed
Job type:         Completed  
Time elapsed:     19039        ms

Downtime w/o network: 345          ms
Setup time:       14           ms
Compression cache: 64.000 MiB
Compressed data:  545.999 KiB
Compressed pages: 1517        
Compression cache misses: 19760        
Compression overflows: 0    

Actual results:
When using --comp-methods mt, the compressed statistic info was not shown.

Expected results:
The compressed statistic info when --comp-methods mt is used should be shown in domjobinfo



Additional info:
Comment 1 Jiri Denemark 2017-01-16 09:07:31 UTC 
Well, --compressed without any --comp-methods enables XBZRLE compression, while --comp-methods mt enables multithreaded compression. The provided compression statistics are only relevant to XBZRLE method and QEMU does not provide any data for multithreaded compression.
