Greetings,
up until a year ago, I was running a server with Debian 10 (stable) on it with the latest versions of libvirt, qemu and kernel 4.19.x Debian 10 had to offer (both libvirt and qemu versions were really old).
the network config was simple, one of the vm acted as a router and provided the ip for both the host and the vm.
I've recently switched distro and now I'm running latest stable libvirt, qemu and kernel 5.4.x
I've tried to reinstate the network config on the new distro but I cannot get ip via dhcp for the second vm.
if I assign manual ip and gateway, I have access to the outside world.
here are the relevant dumps:
network on the router vm:
<interface type='network'>
<mac address='52:54:00:53:1c:6b'/>
<source network='default'/>
<target dev='virtsw0-vm1'/>
<model type='virtio'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x21' slot='0x01' function='0x0'/>
</interface>
the other vm
<interface type='network'>
<mac address='52:54:00:5a:4c:8c'/>
<source network='default'/>
<target dev='virtsw0-vm2'/>
<model type='virtio'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x03' function='0x0'/>
</interface>
and finally:
<network connections='2'>
<name>default</name>
<uuid>61bc1a72-bd02-408a-b88e-dec696742c20</uuid>
<bridge name='virtsw0' stp='on' delay='0'/>
<mac address='52:54:00:6b:1b:92'/>
</network>
as it is possible I'm missing a kernel config, here is the output of lsmod:

and the .config at https://dpaste.com/9ZUCBDE9R
any ideas how to fix it?
Thanks,
