No, to disable the autostarting of dnsmasq, you need to disable the
autostart of network which drives dnsmasq (named 'default' by default).
% virsh net-autostart --disable default
Then it won't be started automatically along with libvirtd service next
time.
Thanks for the response, but my question was whether it's possible to start
libvirtd (and hence, activate the virtual networks "automatically") on boot, but
without dnsmasq being started along the way. Your answer means that to disable
dnsmasq from starting automatically, I need to disable the network form starting
automatically too.
Anyway, I destroyed the 'default' network, then killed the dnsmasq process for
that network, but when I started it again, dnsmasq started along with it. So, it
appears that the whole thing is hard coded.
No, it depends on your previous network status, note that libvirt
saves the object's state, so that things could be consistent before
restarting/reloading.
# virsh net-list --all
Name State Autostart
-----------------------------------------
default active no
# service libvirtd restart
Restarting libvirtd (via systemctl): [ OK ]
# virsh net-list --all
Name State Autostart
-----------------------------------------
default active no
# pidof libvirtd
6868
# pidof dnsmasq
6826
# virsh net-destroy default
Network default destroyed
# service libvirtd restart
Restarting libvirtd (via systemctl): [ OK ]
# virsh net-list --all
Name State Autostart
-----------------------------------------
default inactive no
# ps -ef | grep dnsmasq
root 6762 20112 0 15:07 pts/1 00:00:00 grep --color=auto dnsmasq
# pidof libvirtd
6689
Does this make sense to you? :-)

It does, but it's a different story. You should have tried two more commands
after the last one:
# virsh net-start default
# ps -ef | grep dnsmasq
then, you would have found the grepping positive. That's what I'am actually
talking about :)

As far as I understand from this, you just want the network not started
along with libvirtd. Why do you want to start it again by "net-start"
when it's already not started along with libvirtd? :-)
