IMHO doing migration over UDP is crazy, because migration needs to be
reliable, so you'll end up having to reimplemnt most of TCP features
in your UDP migration code. In any case, this is something that would
have to be done in QEMU code, rather than libvirt.

This would be the QEMU migration code, rather than libvirt.

Not currently.

Best to take all these questions to the QEMU mailing list
