Up until now, to plug VMs into the Midonet virtual networks it was necessary to use the 'last resort' 'ethernet' type. That implied having the domain tainted and having to deal witht the tap lifecycle outside of libvirt/VM lifecycle.
With the patches I submit, a new virtualport type will be accepted by libvirt that will always require an interfaceid (as it is essential for binding a tap device to a virtual port that the virtual port itself exists and has a UUID). With that interfaceid, libvirt will delegate the binding on the Midonet userspace tools.

You really should resend this as a top level email rather than embedded as a reply to what was a single patch inside which there already is a v2. John
