[KVM-AUTOTEST PATCH v2 0/11] TAP patchset corrections

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

 



Differences compared to the previous patchset:
- In kvm_utils.verify_ip_address_ownership() and kvm_vm.get_address():
  Require that '/sbin/arp -n' list any of the the VM's MAC addresses, not
  necessarily the MAC address being verified.
  After having a very hard time deciding which solution was better, I chose
  this one because I think it is slightly safer, and it is more similar to the
  code in the original patch set, which I feel rather confident in since it has
  had some testing.
  The new code has been tested and works with RHEL 3.9 which is one of the
  problematic guests (with 2 NICs).
  However, it can and should be replaced if it causes any trouble (i.e. if
  we find out that some of our guests make it impossible to find their MAC
  addresses this way).

- User networking mode is the default.  We can make TAP mode the default when
  it matures a little.

- qemu-ifup is in test.bindir/scripts, instead of test.bindir.

Some of the patches in this set have already been applied.  Please ignore those.
