https://docs.openstack.org/neutron/latest/admin/config-sriov.html#known-limitations
This doc shows that before openstack Train release, Live migration with sriov port was not supported. After T release, please following the note to ensure that you have the correct settings of the guest interface.

"""
Indirect mode SR-IOV interfaces (vnic-type: macvtap or virtio-forwarder) can now be migrated transparently to the guest. Direct mode SR-IOV interfaces (vnic-type: direct or direct-physical) are detached before the migration and reattached after the migration so this is not transparent to the guest. To avoid loss of network connectivy when live migrating with direct mode sriov the user should create a failover bond in the guest with a transparently live migration port type e.g. vnic-type normal or indirect mode SR-IOV.
