Ah interesting. > - With postcopy migration, is it expected to get a save_live_iterate > call after save_live_complete ? IIUC, save_live_complete signals the > completion of the saving.

I'll change it to avoid calling save_live_iterate during postcopy on devices that haven't declared a save_live_complete_postcopy handler. > > I am able to get past this failure and get migration to complete successfully > by this below hack where I teach save_live_iterate handler to ignore > the requests after save_live_complete has been called. Excellent; but as stated, I think it's better if I fix it and then the individual devices don't need to change.
