Hi,
I'm facing a strange issue while doing a migration from an hypervisor to another one.
The migration takes for ever to start moving the memory.
The VM had no workload what so ever, just a basic ubuntu image. The versions on the
hypervisors are: libvirt 1.2.21, qemu 1.2.3
Command to launche the migration:
virsh migrate --verbose --live --abort-on-error --tunnelled --p2p --auto-converge
--copy-storage-inc --xml vm-6160.xml 6160
qemu+tls://<destination_hypervisor>/system
Here is the log output, look at the time elapsed:

^^^^ Here after 49 sec, the disk has been process, but the memory hasn't started
I skip the logs, but below is the output 5minutes & 56 seconds later, still nothing:

Just after it started to move the memory, but 6 minutes later!

Here the migration is done. But what made it wait more than 5 minutes to start moving the
memory? Does anyone knows? Or have any idea what could produce this latency.
