Re: [Libguestfs] [PATCH 2/2] launch: libvirt: Use qemu-bridge-helper to implement a full network (RHBZ#1148012).

When using the libvirt backend, don't use the SLIRP. Use qemu-bridge-helper via libvirt to give us a full network connection. One consequence of this is that 'ping' works in virt-builder --run-command. Note unfortunately this does not fix virt-rescue (since it overrides the default backend and uses 'direct' for various reasons). --- src/launch-libvirt.c | 34 +++++++++++++--------------------- 1 file changed, 13 insertions(+), 21 deletions(-) diff --git a/src/launch-libvirt.c b/src/launch-libvirt.c index 706ae38..50c3f9d 100644 --- a/src/launch-libvirt.c +++ b/src/launch-libvirt.c @@ -1236,6 +1236,19 @@ construct_libvirt_xml_devices (guestfs_h *g, } end_element (); } end_element (); + /* Connect to libvirt bridge virbr0 (see: RHBZ#1148012). */ + if (g->enable_network) { + start_element ("interface") { + attribute ("type", "bridge"); + start_element ("source") { + attribute ("bridge", "virbr0"); + } end_element (); + start_element ("model") { + attribute ("type", "virtio"); + } end_element (); + } end_element (); + } + } end_element (); /* </devices> */
