Yes, I have reproduce it on 3 debian jessie kernel 3.16.

But other jessie migration have worked before...

I have asked to the qemu mailing, waiting for more information.

Hi, 

I have add this bug, which occur after live migration: 

https://code.google.com/p/ganeti/issues/detail?id=986 
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/ganeti/D2Yos3BShmc 
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=785557#64 


qemu 2.4 or 2.1 and guest kernel 3.16 (debian jessie). 


The bug is that after a live migration, the steal cpu counter just freeze at 100% 

# mpstat 
Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (radinsapi1) 28/08/2015 _x86_64_ (8 CPU) 

16:24:51 CPU %usr %nice %sys %iowait %irq %soft %steal %guest %gnice %idle 
16:24:51 all 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 0,00 99,92 0,00 0,00 0,08 


Seem to be a qemu bug, the workaround seem to use -kvm_steal_time cpu flag. 
But I don't known if they are an performance impact or not. 

Does somebody already have had this bug ?
