It report use migration with shmem device is not supported , when I use the command "virsh migrate --live" to migrate a VM to another host.
Migration with shmem was specifically forbidden by commit:

qemu: Disable migration with ivshmem

It was never safe anyway and as such shouldn't have been enabled in the
first place. Future patches will allow hot-(un)pluging of some ivshmem
devices as a workaround.

That means that there are probably technical reasons which don't allow
it to be migrated. Unfortunately the commit message does not go in depth
enough here, but you'll need to prove that it's safe now if you ever
want to add the support back.
