Without this live migration with dinamic routing software (ospf
with quagga or bird) bring packet drops. Because on dest
interface in up state and kernel try to forward packets to it,
but guest CPU is not running.

although I still think it's better to not set the tap device
offline, in case it's connected to a bridge - we wouldn't want
to trigger an STP forward delay. Maybe just delete (and later
re-add) the IPInfo would be less disruptive? (Or it might be
*more* disruptive, we'd have to try both).

reasonable default. I'm use link status when vm running, for
example if we have ddos - I down tap and via ospf route deleted
and traffic blackholed.

though. So will it be okay to have the patches I've made in this
release (which should handle proper operation for everything
except the "need to modify the state while the guest is running"
case)? I don't think any of that will need to be *un*done to
support this new attribute, and it would be nice to have
something in the next release that works at least in the default
situation...
Thanks, I'm happy with this.
Can you ACK Patches 2/3 and 3/3?
