Fixed In Version: libvirt-0.10.2-20.el6
Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Cause: During migration, libvirt is waiting for qemu to migrate. Moreover, it's waiting for spice to migrate too. The resume of domain on the destination was done after both qemu & spice are migrated. Consequence: The resume of domain on the destination was postponed until spice migrate too. Even though there is no real need for this. This resulted in long pause until domain was resumed on destination. Fix: The wait for spice migration was moved at the end of migration process. Hence, the resume is done as soon as qemu migrates itself. Result: There's no big pause on the destination until qemu resumes.

Description Vimal Patel 2013-03-11 10:54:51 EDT 
Description of problem:
When migrating a guest from one host to another, if the migration happens while the client is watching a video a 5 second pause in the video can be seen by the user.

When migrating a guest from one host to another,if the migration happens while the client is recording audio, there was 15sec gap where recording stopped and recording after the migration was not recorded. 

*Tested using a Win7 64 client & guest with seamless migration on.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEVM3.2 sf9
RHEL 6.4 host
mingw-virt-viewer: rhevm-spice-client-x64-cab-3.2-2

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Set seamless migration on
2.  Migrate the guest while the client is watching a video or recording audio on the guest
3.
  
Actual results:
Client sees almost no loss of data, and is able to continue watching a video or record audio w/o interruption.

Expected results:
Client sees loss of data during migration of the guest.

Additional info:
Comment 1 Marian Krcmarik 2013-03-12 17:43:45 EDT 
I did some more testing:

- The stop in video playback during migration happens even if running qemu directly from cli and migrating with using qemu monitor on the same hosts as are used in RHEVM.
- It's 1Gbit LAN, client is three hops away from hosts, hosts are next to each other.
- Clocks of hosts are synced.
- It seems that It's much more obvious/reproducible for Guests with more than one qxl device defined even though only one screen is enabled.

I will attach spice server debug dst and src logs.

Comment 10 mazhang 2013-04-09 03:00:50 EDT 
Can not reproduce this issue with qemu-kvm directly, here is my command line and steps.

host:RHEL6.4
kernel:2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64
qemu:qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.355.el6.x86_64

2 boot up qemu in hostB(10.66.82.123) waiting for migration.

3 connect guest with remote-viewer, play a song and record it by sound record.

4 migration
(qemu) __com.redhat_spice_migrate_info 10.66.82.123 5900
(qemu) migrate -d tcp:10.66.82.123:5800

5 after migrate finished , stop record application and play the record file.

result:
no gap or loss data found.

Try both play video and record audio, can not reproduce this issue, could you have a look at my steps, if any problem let me know.

As I mention in comment #8, it was reproducible only via Rhvem, and not by using qemu-kvm directly. Also, use just audio playback to avoid other problems.

Thanks for the info and QE will try to reproduce it via rhevm environment.
Comment 14 mazhang 2013-04-10 07:02:25 EDT 
Try reproduce this bug on RHEVM3.2 sf13 , but guest can't found sound device, and no sound device selection on dashboard, could you tell me how do I add it.

Here is the command line that I boot by rhev-m:

When creating the test vm, have you chosen a VM OS type in Admin portal? If so which one, If not don't leave it with "Unassigned".
Comment 16 mazhang 2013-04-11 06:31:05 EDT 
1 boot win7_64 guest with two qxl devices, seamless migration with play audio/vidio, it just pause within 1 second, after migration finished audio and record work well.

2 Version-Release
(mine):
qemu-kvm-rhev-0.12.1.2-2.355
spice-server-0.12.0-12.el6.x86_64
libvirt-0.10.2-18.el6_4.3.x86_64
(mkrcmari)
qemu-kvm-rhev-0.12.1.2-2.348 
spice-server-0.12.0-12 
libvirt-0.10.2-18.el6_4.2

3 To do:
a. wait developer to build qemu-kvm-348 and re-test.
b. set up network like comment #1 mentioned "client is three hops away from hosts".
Comment 17 mazhang 2013-04-11 07:00:33 EDT 
downgrade to qemu-kvm-348, spice client will alternate quit and black(still got sound) when migration finished.
Comment 18 mazhang 2013-04-12 00:43:01 EDT 
Just reproduce this bug. spice client and host must in different net section, audio playback will pause about 10s while migration.

Who can tell why "spice client and host must in different net section" is the key factor for reproducing this issue?

b) In RHEL6.4(10.66.6.86) connect rhel-m dashboard with firefox, and open vm console, play audio,then do migration between 10.66.104.101 and 10.66.104.103,
audio playback will pause about 10s while migration.
Comment 21 Yonit Halperin 2013-04-12 10:12:01 EDT 
Did you reproduce it directly with qemu-kvm, or via rhevm? If with rhevm, can you now try to reproduce it with qemu-kvm, and a similar network setting?

Thanks,
Yonit.

Comment 22 Yonit Halperin 2013-04-12 10:46:53 EDT 
iiuc, from libvirt migration code, libvirt is the one who is responsible to start the cpu on the destination. However, even though the vm can be started immediately after migration has finished, it doesn't happen, since libvirt first waits till spice migration on the src side has completed. This is not necessary - the waiting in the src side is essential only for not terminating src-spice before it completed its migration operations.

So if the above is correct, there are 2 issues here
1) why is spice migration completion gets slower when the client is on a different subnet, even though we are still on a low latency connection?
2) starting the dest vm should not be synchronized with spice migration.

Michal, does this make sense?

Yonit.
Comment 23 Michal Privoznik 2013-04-12 12:43:34 EDT 
Yonit,

I think as we agreed on Bug 836135 libvirt should not kill source before spice migrates its internal data. That is, as soon as qemu tells libvirt "now it's safe to kill me", we send a cookie to destination which translates into 'cont' on monitor command. So yes, there can be a gap where libvirt is waiting on qemu which is just migrating some spice internal state but CPUs are not running. So just to make sure I understand this correctly, following flow is safe:
1) libvirt starts a paused guest on dst
2) libvirt starts migration on src
3) libvirt waits for migration to complete (query-migrate reports "completed" even though "query-spice" reports 'not yet')
4) immediately sends notification to dst so guest can 'cont'
5) waits until "query-spice" reports "completed"
6) kills qemu on src

Currently, steps 4 and 5 are switched.

Yes, this flow should be safe. So, the remaining question is why spice migration is slower on some settings, even if they are low latency ones, and whether it happens when running qemu-kvm directly, or just with rhevm.

Yes, I also try to reproduce this problem with qemu-kvm directly in the same network, it didn't happen.
Comment 26 Yonit Halperin 2013-04-15 15:51:40 EDT 
I'm moving the bug to libvirt + I opened a new bug for spice-gtk, bug #952375, for finding why the src spice-server doesn't identify spice-gtk disconnection (or alternatively, why spice-gtk doesn't close the sockets to the src).

    qemu_migration: Move waiting for SPICE migration
    
    Currently, we wait for SPICE to migrate in the very same loop where we
    wait for qemu to migrate. This has a disadvantage of slowing seamless
    migration down. One one hand, we should not kill the domain until all
    SPICE data has been migrated.  On the other hand, there is no need to
    wait in the very same loop and hence slowing down 'cont' on the
    destination. For instance, if users are watching a movie, they can
    experience the movie to be stopped for a couple of seconds, as
    processors are not running nor on src nor on dst as libvirt waits for
    SPICE to migrate. We should move the waiting phase to migration CONFIRM
    phase.

Comment 32 Jiri Denemark 2013-07-09 08:05:10 EDT 
The patch seems to be safe but migration needs to be thoroughly tested to make sure this did not break anything.
Comment 33 Eric Blake 2013-07-09 16:55:56 EDT 
Back to assigned; on-list review pointed out a need for a v2 that doesn't touch .gnulib submodule.

Comment 42 Hu Jianwei 2013-07-17 06:04:24 EDT 
Because of Bug 984793, libvirtd crash when guest do migration. I'll verify it after that bug fixed.
Comment 45 Hu Jianwei 2013-07-23 04:31:22 EDT 
Hi,

Using remote-viewer to connect VM from rhevm, playing audio/video in VM, no long time pause or interrupts during migration, just 1~2 seconds pause, I think it's acceptable.

PC list:
1.my_pc, 10.66.7.130
2.rhevm, 10.66.6.169
3.host1, 10.66.106.23
4.host2, 10.66.106.22

But, I found one issue, after migration finished, the volume of remote-viewer application in my_pc(Firefox access rhevm server using my_pc 10.66.7.130) will change to minimal. So, we need change the volume of remote-viewer to back manally, or nothing will be output. Please see the attached images, could you help check whether it's default setting or one defect? I remembered no this issue in comment 27's versions.

I cant reproduce this problem with qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.379.el6.x86_64 qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.355.el6.x86_64 and qemu-kvm-rhev-0.12.1.2-2.375.el6.x86_64 

here is my steps:

2. connect guest use remote-viewer, play a audio.

3. migrate guest to destination host

actual result:
after migrate finished, sound volume on des host is the same as src.
both spice client and remote-viewer cant reproduce this problem.


I'll try reproduce this issue on rhev-m
Comment 53 mazhang 2013-07-25 07:03:04 EDT

Here is my test matrix.
