Bug Description
Tested with upstream qemu as of Jun 3 2010
If the source qemu instance can't connect to the migration destination (say
there is no listening QEMU instance, or port is blocked by a firewall), all we
get is info migrate -> Migration status: failed. This is all we have to report
back to libvirt users if their firewall is misconfigured, which is crappy.
Ideally, if we can't connect, migration would fail immediately with a relevant
message and strerror(). More info from 'info migrate' would be nice too, no
idea how this will play with QMP though.
As a slightly related issue, try entering
migrate tcp:127.0.0.0:6000
We get a 'migration failed' error, and then the monitor hangs!

yep, it's been giving errors now for a while (and not hanging) and also recently gained the error text in 'info migrate':
[dgilbert@ dgilbert- t530 ~]$ /usr/bin/ qemu-system- x86_64 -nographic state=1, only_migratable=0, send-configurat ion=1, send-section- footer= 1
QEMU 2.10.1 monitor - type 'help' for more information
(qemu) migrate tcp:0:12345

So marking as fix-release
(Note that there's a bug that causes a crash in the disconnect case on current head, but that's only been in for a week or so and I've just sent a fix for it).
