Issue during live migration LXD

I am trying to live migrate between 2 machines using lxd
lxc move lxd:contianer lxd2:container
but when ever I run the command it give me this error
error: migration dump failed
(00.094811) Error (criu/sk-netlink.c:73): The socket has data to read
(00.094823) Error (criu/cr-dump.c:1313): Dump files (pid: 7431) failed with -1
(00.117718) Error (criu/cr-dump.c:1628): Dumping FAILED.
but I can migrate them if they are offline that mean after I stop the container then send it to the needed destination#

and they told me it might be a CRIU problem and check the containers migration log and this it what it shows

(00.096357) Error (criu/sk-netlink.c:73): The socket has data to read

This is the problem, it indicates that one of your processes had a netlink socket open with data buffered in it. This prevents CRIU from dumping/restoring that process and makes migration fail.

So your problem is very much a CRIU/kernel issue. Until CRIU has a way to dump such a process you can either retry the migration hoping that the socket will eventually not have any buffered data, or track down the problematic process and make sure it’s not running before attempting live migration.
