Hi all,
While testing VFIO migration, I encountered an corner scenario case:
VFIO migration will not be aborted when the vfio device of dst-vm fails to
transition from RESUMING to RUNNING state in vfio_vmstate_change.
I saw the comments in the vfio_vmstate_change but I don't understand why no action is taken for this situation.
There is error handling in vfio_vmstate_change() :
/*
* Migration should be aborted in this case, but vm_state_notify()
* currently does not support reporting failures.
*/
migration_file_set_error(ret, local_err);
Allowing the live migration process to continue could cause unrecoverable
damage to the VM. In this case, can we directly exit the dst-vm? Through the
return-path mechanism, the src-vm can continue to run.
Looking forward to your reply.
I suggest you open an issue on :
https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/
with a detailed description of your environment :
Host HW, Host OS, QEMU version, QEMU command line, Guest OS, etc.
A template is provided when a new issue is created.
Thanks,
C.
