Different mac address used in libvirtd

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,
I found libvirtd will create vnet0 with a different mac other than the one defined in domain file. The mac in Domain file will be used by qemu-kvm.
I want to know how libvirtd decides the mac for vnet0, Who can give me a hint about the location of the libvirtd codes which does this work?

I cannot find how the libvirtd translates the mac from one defined in domain file to vnet0's one in src/util/bridge.c: brSetInterfaceMac()
Thanks
