Description Fangge Jin 2019-07-03 10:59:26 UTC

Description of problem:
Migration fails with error "invalid argument: Turn parallel migration on to tune it" when --auto-converge-initial/--comp-mt-level/--comp-mt-threads/--comp-mt-dthreads is in params

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libvirt-5.4.0-2.module+el8.1.0+3523+b348b848.x86_64


How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Start a vm

2. Migrate it:
# virsh migrate nfs qemu+ssh://intel-5130-16-1.englab.nay.redhat.com/system --live --verbose --auto-converge --auto-converge-initial 30 
error: invalid argument: Turn parallel migration on to tune it

# virsh migrate nfs qemu+ssh://lenovo-sr630-10.lab.eng.pek2.redhat.com/system --live --verbose --compressed
Migration: [ 70 %]^Cerror: operation aborted: migration out job: canceled by client

# virsh migrate nfs qemu+ssh://lenovo-sr630-10.lab.eng.pek2.redhat.com/system --live --verbose --compressed --comp-mt-level 9
error: invalid argument: Turn parallel migration on to tune it

# virsh migrate nfs qemu+ssh://lenovo-sr630-10.lab.eng.pek2.redhat.com/system --live --verbose --compressed --comp-mt-threads 5
error: invalid argument: Turn parallel migration on to tune it

# virsh migrate nfs qemu+ssh://lenovo-sr630-10.lab.eng.pek2.redhat.com/system --live --verbose --compressed --comp-mt-dthreads 5
error: invalid argument: Turn parallel migration on to tune it


Actual results:
Migration fails when --auto-converge-initial/--comp-mt-level/--comp-mt-threads/--comp-mt-dthreads is in params

Expected results:
Migration succeeds

Comment 1 Jiri Denemark 2019-07-03 13:48:07 UTC

Since you marked this as regression, do you know which version of libvirt worked correctly?

Comment 2 Fangge Jin 2019-07-04 01:27:35 UTC

It worked with libvirt-5.0.0-7

Comment 3 Jiri Denemark 2019-07-19 14:06:07 UTC

Fix sent upstream for review: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2019-July/msg01260.html

Comment 4 Jiri Denemark 2019-07-19 14:33:17 UTC

This is now fixed upstream by

    virsh migrate: Properly check for --parallel-connections

    Ever since --parallel-connections option for virsh migrate was
    introduced we did not properly check the return value of
    vshCommandOptInt. We would set VIR_MIGRATE_PARAM_PARALLEL_CONNECTIONS
    parameter even if vshCommandOptInt returned 0 (which means
    --parallel-connections was not specified) when another int option which
    was checked earlier was specified with a nonzero value.

    Specifically, running virsh migrate with either
    --auto-converge-increment, --auto-converge-initial, --comp-mt-dthreads,
    --comp-mt-threads, or --comp-mt-level would set
    VIR_MIGRATE_PARAM_PARALLEL_CONNECTIONS parameter and if --parallel
    option was not used, libvirt would complain

       	error: invalid argument: Turn parallel migration on to tune it

    even though --parallel-connections option was not used at all.
