Fix for such a case:
1. Domain A and B xml contain the same SRIOV net hostdev(<interface
type='hostdev' /> with same pci address).
2. virsh start A (Successfully, and configure the SRIOV net with
custom mac)
3. virsh start B (Fail because of the hostdev used by domain A or other
reason.)
In step 3, 'virHostdevNetConfigRestore' is called for the hostdev
which is still used by domain A. It makes the mac/vlan of the SRIOV net
change.


Makes perfect sense, thanks for finding that out.

Someone else encountered this last month too, and posted a patch:

   https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2015-February/msg00394.html

The patch was NACKed because I didn't think the fix was correct (although it did work)

   https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2015-February/msg00976.html

I don't have the time to do a close analysis of this patch right now, but from the comments it sounds like it addresses the concern that I had with the previous patch (that it wouldn't be messing with any devices that were currently not in use by any domain, and hadn't yet been reached in the setup part). I wanted to point that out now so that whoever looks at the next version of this patch checks for that.

active virPCIDevice has member variable 'used_by_drvname' and 'used_by_domname' to mark its user. According to ’virHostdevPreparePCIDevices‘, only the pci is successfully prepared, will the member 'used_by_XXX' be assigned.

The domain PCI  state  when reattach:
1. If qemuProcessStart() fails before pci setup(virHostdevPreparePCIDevices()), the pci will either be not active, or be active but used by others.
2. if qemuProcessStart() fails during pci setup , virHostdevPreparePCIDevices rollbacks the change. The result will be the same with 1.
3. if qemuProcessStart() fails after pci setup, the pci will be active and used by this domain.

In fucntion virHostdevReAttachPCIDevices,
1. pcidevs is from virHostdevGetActivePCIHostDeviceList(). That is say, pci in pcidevs is active ( used/prepared by any domains).
2. In loop 1, the pci used by other domains is removed from the pcidevs. After loop, all pcis in pcidevs are used/prepared by this domain.
3. The following reattach operation is on these 'pcidevs', not the pci used by nobody or other domains.

So I don't think the problem you said exists. This solution is OK.
Am I right?



Code Change in this fix:
1. As the pci used by other domain have been removed from
'pcidevs' in previous loop, we only restore the nic config for
the hostdev still in 'pcidevs'(used by this domain)
2. wrap a function 'virHostdevIsPCINetDevice', which detect whether the
hostdev is a pci net device or not.
3. update the comments to make it more clear

The daemon will crash if this function returns NULL.  There should be
check for that, but it shouldn't be fatal, so we can clean up as much

Other than that, the patch looks fine.
