The virtual hardware is generated differently (at least for i440fx machines) when host_mtu is set or not set on the netdev command line [0]. When the MTU is the same value as the default 1500, Proxmox VE did not add a host_mtu parameter. This is problematic for migration where host_mtu is present on one end of the migration, but not on the other [1]. Moreover, the effective setting in the guest (state) will still be the host_mtu from the source side, even if a different value is used for host_mtu on the target instance's commandline. This will not lead to an error loading the migration stream in QEMU, but having a larger host_mtu than the bridge MTU is still problematic for certain network traffic like > iperf3 -c 10.10.10.11 -u -l 2k when host_mtu=9000 and bridge MTU=1500.
Pass the values from the source to the target during migration to be able to preserve them.
