Fixed In Version: libvirt-1.2.17-13.el7_2.1 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: Improperly logged error message when migrating with memory hotplug enabled. Consequence: When migrating with memory hotplug enabled the destination host logged a spurious message saying "unsupported migration cookie feature memory-hotplug". This didn't break migration but in cases where the migration would fail for some other reason this would sidetrack from the real cause of the failure. Fix: The error message is suppressed by correctly parsing the migration cookie flags. Result:

Comment 6 yafu 2015-11-24 08:37:28 UTC
Reproduce this bug with build:
libvirt-1.2.17-13.el7.x86_64
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.3.0-31.el7.x86_64

1.Prepare two hosts for migration;

2.Configure the libvirtd.conf as below and restart libvirtd service on the destination host:
  #cat /etc/libvirt/libvirtd.conf
   log_level=1
   log_outputs="1:file:/var/log/libvirt/libvirtd.log"

  #service libvirtd restart

2.Prepare a guest with <maxMemory> set:
 #virsh dumpxml rhel7
  <maxMemory slots='16' unit='KiB'>152429568</maxMemory>
  ...
  <cpu>
    <numa>
      <cell id='0' cpus='0-3' memory='512000' unit='KiB'/>
      <cell id='1' cpus='4-7' memory='512000' unit='KiB'/>
    </numa>
  </cpu>
  ...

3.Do migration:
  #virsh migrate rhel7 qemu+ssh://10.66.4.148/system --live

4.Check the libvirtd.log on the destination host, could see the error "unsupported migration cookie feature memory-hotplug", so the bug reproduced.
  #tailf /var/log/libvirt/libvirtd.log
2015-11-24 03:21:21.383+0000: 12735: error : qemuMigrationCookieXMLParse:1224 : internal error: Unsupported migration cookie feature memory-hotplug



Verify this bug with build:
libvirt-1.2.17-13.el7_2.1.x86_64
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.3.0-31.el7.x86_64

1.Re-execute step 1-3 in reproduce steps

2.Re-check the libvirtd.log on the destination host, could not see the error "unsupported migration cookie feature memory-hotplug".

According to upper steps, mark this bug verified.
