Can you explain this more exactly? In particular, by "vnic" do you mean the network device as seen by the guest? And what do you mean by the term "getting loaded"? (It doesn't make sense to me that you should mean the network device in the guest, unless "stopping VM's from getting started" just means that the guest doesn't become fully functional, rather than that the qemu process doesn't start). Beyond that, of course the bridge that the tap device will be connected to needs to exist before you can connect something to it - I don't understand how its existence could cause a failure; rather its *non*-existence would cause a failure. (As you can see by my wild suppositions that make no sense, the terms you've used are a bit too vague/open to interpretation for me to understand exactly the problem you're referring to) (Hmm - perhaps you're referring to the situation where libvirt attempts to create a bridge on the host for one of its virtual networks, but either a bridge by that name has already been created by "someone else" or another netdev already exists on the host that is on the same subnet (and thus has the same route)? Your description doesn't fit that very well, but that is a known problem and unrelated to the patch/problem we're discussing here. > > Often this is behavior you want ; i.e having Host Hypervisor NIC's added > and up before libvirtd sets up it's nics/bridges. > > > On 29 April 2017 at 11:15, <lu.zhipeng@xxxxxxxxxx > <mailto:lu.zhipeng@xxxxxxxxxx>> wrote: > > > >On Fri, Apr 28, 2017 at 05:23:19PM +0800, ZhiPeng Lu wrote: > >> > Creating tap device and adding the device to bridge are not atomic operation. > >> > Similarly deleting tap device and removing it from bridge are not atomic operation. > >>The Problem occurs when two vms start and shutdown.
