Description Luiz Capitulino 2012-04-11 20:06:18 UTC 
Description of problem:

When the target VM is started with "-incoming 'exec:nc -l 4444'" and the migration process is started with "migrate tcp:0:4444" on the source, the migration process will fail.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kvm-83-251.el5

How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start the target VM with:

# qemu-kvm [...] -incoming 'exec:nc -l 4444'

2. Start the source machine and start the migration process with:

(qemu) migrate tcp:0:4444


Actual results:
The migration will fail with the following message on the target VM's terminal:
"load of migration failed".

Expected results:
The migration process works.

Additional info:
This works on upstream and RHEL6.3.
