Hi, under certain conditions, like memory-intensive procedures inside
guest, live migration effectively will have no end, and this is
expected behavior. You may want to use --timeout parameter for
fallback interval to non-live migration for example. If your vm is
sitting idle, the observed behavior is most probably a bug.
