For Oliver's debug use case, it will require userspace to coordinate reaping the dirty bitmap/ring with the stats, otherwise there's no baseline, e.g. the number of dirtied pages will scale with how frequently userspace is clearing dirty bits. At that point, userspace can do the whole thing itself, e.g. with a dirty ring it's trivial to do "dirtied_pages += ring->dirty_index - ring->reset_index". The traditional bitmap will be slower, but without additional userspace enabling the dirty logging dependency means this is mostly limited to live migration being in-progress. In that case, something in userspace needs to actually be processing the dirty pages, it should be easy for that something to keep a running count.

Looks like it is not a bad idea to drop this change. Will do that. Jing
