Gross, no! There is no reason at all to make this into a user tunable. Please don't do that. The whole point is that this is a simple transparent mechanism. There's also no need to usurp my patchset. I sent a v7 incorporating your feedback. So this isn't really appreciated either. I actually asked you not to usurp this over IRC, but you did anyway. If your goal is "alienate this contributor so he doesn't like working on QEMU," then you're succeeding. Here's v7: https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/20220721125636.446842-1-ja...@zx2c4.com/ This will handle your ridiculous theoretical migratory concerns with minimal invasiveness and without having to introduce userfacing tunables. Let's keep discussion on that v7 thread, please. Thanks, Jason
