Hi, List,
Do you meet the same problem? Host is kvm, doing: (e.g.)
#virsh migrate sles11 qemu+ssh://147.2.207.55/system --live --unsafe
password:
Sometimes, VM is already running on the target host and disappears
from source host, but the command line still hangs there, if pressing
"ENTER", it will exit.
I debugged the code, but found the result is weird. The code hangs at
tools/virsh-domain.c -> cmdMigrate ->vshWatchJob->poll():
poll() is trying to select pipe_fd, which is used to receive message from
doMigrate thread. In debugging, found that doMigrate finishes and at
the end it does call safewrite() to write the retval ('0' or '1') to
pipe_fd,
and the write is completed. But cmdMigrate poll() cannot get the event.
Then after pressing "ENTER" key, poll() can get the event and select
pipe_fd, then command line can exit.
Any ideas about the possible reason?
It is because, the authentication thread is independently waiting for the
password on virsh. I see that the virWatchJob interferes with authentication
thread and the password is never taken successfully. The virWatchJob
probably needs to wait till the authentication thread completes taking the
password after which it should start watching the job. Moreover, I see
that --p2p
migration doesnt work at all when auto login is not configured.
Thanks,
Chunyan
