It's a feature for the cloud infra provider. It's an antifeature for everyone else. There is value in providing more features infra-side. There is no value in restricting functionnalities vm-side to favor the infra. The 'everything is a dumb system' vm view is nice on slideware but it does not describe reality (let alone because some complex network scenarii are the result of app needs, and there is zero value in shorting the system layer to make apps talk to the hypervisor directly. If only because the system layer is also an access control layer). -- Nicolas Mailhot -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
