[Xen-devel] HVM Live Migration: Failed to populate physmap

["sanjay kushwaha" <sanjay.kushwaha@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Folks,
I am trying to do Live HVM migration on Intel VT (x86_64) platforms. The HVM save on the source machine completes without error but the destination machine restore fails with the following error in the qemu-dm.log
 file. the xend.log doesn't contain any errors. Below are the details. Is this a known problem? Does anyone know how to fix this?

I really appreciate your help.

[root@vt1 xen]# cat qemu-dm-5.log
