By specifying parentIndex in a call to virNetworkUpdate(), it was possible to direct libvirt to add a dhcp range or static host of a non-matching address family to the <dhcp> element of an <ip>. For example, given:
<ip address='192.168.122.1' netmask='255.255.255.0'/> <ip family='ipv6' address='2001:db6:ca3:45::1' prefix='64'/>
you could provide a static host entry with an IPv4 address, and specify that it be added to the 2nd <ip> element (index 1):
virsh net-update default add ip-dhcp-host --parent-index 1 \ '<host mac="52:54:00:00:00:01" ip="192.168.122.45"/>'
This would be happily added with no error (and no concern of any possible future consequences).
This patch checks that any dhcp range or host element being added to a network ip's <dhcp> subelement has addresses of the same family as the ip element they are being added to.
This problem was noticed when looking at the reproduction case for https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1182486 (but is not a solution to that bug). --- src/conf/network_conf.c | 18 +++++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 17 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)
ACK
Although it would be nicer if we could also find the correct <dhcp> element matching the address when --parent-index is not specified. With the ipv4 <dhcp> section first I get an error trying to add an ipv6 host:
Good point! We do search for the first <ip> element that has a <dhcp>, but we don't pay attention to whether or not the address family is the same. I'll whip up another patch to take care of that.
virsh net-update default add-first ip-dhcp-host ipv6.xml error: Failed to update network default error: Requested operation is not valid: the address family of a host entry IP must match the address family of the dhcp element's parent
