Hello All,
I am currently working on patches for PCI-passthrough of SRIOV VF's and I am facing an issue with the network definition not being persistent.
I am using a new forward mode = hostdev and the network xml is as follows:
<network>
<name>pci-passthrough-network</name>
<uuid>81ff0d90-c91e-6742-64da-4a736edb9a8f</uuid>
<forward mode="hostdev">
<pf dev="eth2"/>
</forward>
</network>
Command line used is:
# virsh net-define pci_passthrough_network.xml
The network is defined successfully and I can use it at this point.
But if I restart libvirt after defining the above network, I lose the network definition.
After restart libvirt does not possess any knowledge of the above network.
This does not happen when I use forward mode="bridge".
I have cross referenced the function call path of networkDefine for both the forwarding modes and I can't seem to find the problem.
Is there some function I am missing?
May I ask for your help to solve this issue?
Many Thanks,
Regards,
Shradha Shah
