[qemumigrate.pm, qemumigratemock.pm, qemu.pm, proxmox.com] Subject: [pve-devel] [PATCH qemu-server v2 stable-bookworm 4/4] migration: preserve host_mtu for virtio-net devices X-BeenThere: pve-devel@lists.proxmox.com X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.29 Precedence: list List-Id: Proxmox VE development discussion List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , Reply-To: Proxmox VE development discussion Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Errors-To: pve-devel-bounces@lists.proxmox.com Sender: "pve-devel" The virtual hardware is generated differently (at least for i440fx machines) when host_mtu is set or not set on the netdev command line [0]. When the MTU is the same value as the default 1500, Proxmox VE did not add a host_mtu parameter. This is problematic for migration where host_mtu is present on one end of the migration, but not on the other [1]. Moreover, the effective setting in the guest (state) will still be the host_mtu from the source side, even if a different value is used for host_mtu on the target instance's commandline. This will not lead to an error loading the migration stream in QEMU, but having a larger host_mtu than the bridge MTU is still problematic for certain network traffic like > iperf3 -c 10.10.10.11 -u -l 2k when host_mtu=9000 and bridge MTU=1500. Pass the values from the source to the target during migration to be able to preserve them. While the setting only takes effect starting with Proxmox VE 9, it is necessary to add a dummy parameter to the VM start API already in Proxmox VE 8.
