Series [PULL,v3,1/3] hv-balloon: use get_min_alignment() to express 32 GiB alignment | expand

Commit Message

David Hildenbrand Feb. 6, 2024, 7:22 a.m. UTC
From: Mark Kanda <mark.kanda@oracle.com>

QEMU initializes preallocated backend memory as the objects are parsed from
the command line. This is not optimal in some cases (e.g. memory spanning
multiple NUMA nodes) because the memory objects are initialized in series.

Allow the initialization to occur in parallel (asynchronously). In order to
ensure optimal thread placement, asynchronous initialization requires prealloc
context threads to be in use.
