Bug 1690574

fileaccess_mod.ko seems like a McAfee kernel module:
https://kc.mcafee.com/corporate/index?page=content&id=KB91044
https://kc.mcafee.com/corporate/index?page=content&id=KB89912

I'm puzzled why `file` can fail to run on this file, or maybe the output is not what we expect.

Anyway, just posted a patch to workaround such situations:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2019-March/msg00069.html

It seems like the issue is due to the module file being a symlink: `file` (invoked by the "file" API, invoked by the "file-architecture" API) does not dereference symlinks, and thus the architecture detection (based on the output of `file`) fails.

I posted another fix/workaround for this, simpler than the previous one:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2019-March/msg00078.html

Both patches approved, and sent upstream:
https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/commit/0a093035d485b3c2e66d56541ebe159f1b632ba6
https://github.com/libguestfs/libguestfs/commit/363b5e0b4ecebe861a9aafe8bce5a8390b54571c

Reproduce the bug with builds:
virt-v2v-1.38.2-12.el7.x86_64
libguestfs-1.38.2-12.el7.x86_64
libvirt-4.5.0-10.el7_6.4.x86_64
qemu-kvm-rhev-2.12.0-18.el7_6.3.x86_64

Steps:
1.Prepare a rhel7 guest with third party module loaded
1.1 Download the package ENSL1022_Eval.zip from https://www.mcafee.com/enterprise/en-us/downloads/trials.html
1.2 Unzip the package and install MFEma.x86_64.rpm and MFErt.i686.rpm
1.3 Check the 3rd party module info:
# file -zb /lib/modules/3.10.0-957.el7.x86_64/fileaccess/fileaccess_mod.ko 
symbolic link to `/opt/isec/ens/esp/modules/fileaccess/3.10.0-957.el7.x86_64-fileaccess_mod.ko'

# rpm -qf /lib/modules/3.10.0-957.el7.x86_64/fileaccess/fileaccess_mod.ko 
file /lib/modules/3.10.0-957.el7.x86_64/fileaccess/fileaccess_mod.ko is not owned by any package

2.Use virt-v2v to convert the guest to rhv;
#  virt-v2v -ic vpx://root.73.141/data/10.73.75.219/?no_verify=1 esx6.7-rhel7.6-kdump --password-file /tmp/passwd -o rhv-upload -oc https://ibm-x3250m5-03.rhts.eng.pek2.redhat.com/ovirt-engine/api -os nfs_data -op /tmp/rhvpasswd -oo rhv-cafile=/home/ca.pem -oo rhv-direct=true -oo rhv-cluster=nfs

If reporting bugs, run virt-v2v with debugging enabled and include the 
complete output:

  virt-v2v -v -x [...]

Steps:
1.Prepare a rhel7 guest with third party module loaded
2.Use virt-v2v to convert the guest to thv

3.The conversion can be finished successfully and boot the guest in rhv.
3.1 The guest can pass all regular checkpoints.
3.2 Check the 3rd party kernel module info:
# rpm -qf /lib/modules/3.10.0-957.el7.x86_64/fileaccess/fileaccess_mod.ko 
file /lib/modules/3.10.0-957.el7.x86_64/fileaccess/fileaccess_mod.ko is not owned by any package
# file -zb /lib/modules/3.10.0-957.el7.x86_64/fileaccess/fileaccess_mod.ko 
symbolic link to `/opt/isec/ens/esp/modules/fileaccess/3.10.0-957.el7.x86_64-fileaccess_mod.ko'

Result:Virt-v2v can convert guest which has a file without architecture,so change the bug from ON_QA to VERIFIED.
