Fedora bug
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=235961
If using the default virtual network, an easy way to lose guest network
connectivity is to install libvirt inside the VM. The autostarted
default network inside the guest collides with host virtual network
routing. This is a long standing issue that has caused users quite a
bit of pain and confusion.
On network startup, parse /proc/net/route and compare the requested
IP+netmask against host routing destinations: if any matches are found,
refuse to start the network.
v2: Drop sscanf, fix a comment typo, comment that function could use
libnl instead of /proc
v3: Consider route netmask. Compare binary data rather than convert to
string.
v4: Return to using sscanf, drop inet functions in favor of virSocket,
parsing safety checks. Don't make parse failures fatal, in case
expected format changes.
v5: Try and continue if we receive unexpected. Delimit parsed lines to
prevent scanning past newline
