This part, although it's not fair to ask you, but calling
vm_start when != MIG_STATE_COMPLETED terrifies me because just
failing migrate_fd_cleanup (mostly calling qemu_fclose) may cause
split brain between src/dst.  Although I haven't encountered this
situation, just having stopped VMs on both sides is safer.

Thanks,

Yoshi

I see your pain. I am not happy at all, but this was integrated by
Anthony to fix this bug:

commit 41ef56e61153d7bd27d34a634633bb51b1c5988d
Author: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
Date:   Wed Jun 2 14:55:25 2010 -0500

    migration: respect exit status with exec:

 This fixes https://bugs.launchpad.net/qemu/+bug/391879


I think that it fixes that bug, but it makes me un-easy to restart vm if
there is a failure in migrate_fd_cleanup().  As I didn't wanted to
change behaviour with this series, I left it as it was.

Next on ToDo list is to do something sensible with errors, just now we
are not very good at handling them.

Later, Juan.

Thanks for the link.  I don't know IIUC, why stopping the VM was
a problem?  The essential thing is that we need to introduce a
flag that whether user wants to continue a VM when something goes
wrong during live migration.  Deciding only with old_vm_running is
wrong.

I agree with keeping the behavior unchanged.

Yeah.  If we introduce Kemari, the migration code becomes more
important because it'll be part of the normal VM execution
path :)

Thanks,

Yoshi
