The VIR_MIGRATE_PARAM_PERSIST_XML parameter was introduced in libvirt v1.3.4 and is used to provide the new persistent configuration for the destination during a live migration: https://libvirt.org/html/libvirt-libvirt-domain.html#VIR_MIGRATE_PARAM_PERSIST_XML Without this parameter the persistent configuration on the destination will be the same as the original persistent configuration on the source when the VIR_MIGRATE_PERSIST_DEST flag is provided. As Nova does not currently provide the VIR_MIGRATE_PARAM_PERSIST_XML param but does provide the VIR_MIGRATE_PERSIST_DEST flag this means that a soft reboot by Nova of the instance after a live migration can revert the domain back to the original persistent configuration from the source. Note that this is only possible in Nova as a soft reboot actually results in the virDomainShutdown and virDomainLaunch libvirt APIs being called that recreate the domain using the persistent configuration. virDomainReboot does not result in this but is not called at this time. The impact of this on the instance after the soft reboot is pretty severe, host devices referenced in the original persistent configuration on the source may not exist or could even be used by other users on the destination. CPU and NUMA affinity could also differ drastically between the two hosts resulting in the instance being unable to start etc. As MIN_LIBVIRT_VERSION is now > v1.3.4 this change simply includes the VIR_MIGRATE_PARAM_PERSIST_XML param using the same updated XML for the destination as is already provided to VIR_MIGRATE_PARAM_DEST_XML.

In the unfortunate event that bugs are discovered, they should be reported to the appropriate bug tracker. If you obtained the software from a 3rd party operating system vendor, it is often wise to use their own bug tracker for reporting problems. In all other cases use the master OpenStack bug tracker, available at:
