That part of the code was intended to be funtionally identical to what QEMU's previous built-in storage migration code would do. I don't want to see the semantics of that change, because it makes libvirt behaviour vary depending on which QEMU version you are using. If that logic is not right for a particular usage scenario, applications are expected to provide the "migrate_disks" parameter. > Our original problem scenario was where the root disk is rbd and there is a > read-only ISO config-drive, and "nmigrate_disks" is zero.

So you want zero disks migrated. Simply don't ask for storage migration in the first place if you don't have any disks to migrate.
