One interesting Xen behavior that has existing for many, many years is that a PV nic is implicitly created for each emulated nic specified in the config. The guest OS picks which one to use. These days most will use the PV nic, and if they are nice, "unplug" the emulated one via the unplug protocol. E.g. an HVM guest with <interface type='bridge'> <source bridge='br0'/> <mac address='00:16:3e:7a:35:ce'/> <script path='/etc/xen/scripts/vif-bridge'/> </interface> results in two vif devices on the host # ip a | grep vif 607: vif519.0-emu: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master br0 state UNKNOWN group default qlen 500 608: vif519.0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast master br0 state UNKNOWN group default qlen 512 both are connected to the bridge # brctl show br0 bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces br0 8000.001e676598f5 no eth0 vif519.0 vif519.0-emu In this case, the (not nice) guest OS is using the PV nic but did not unplug the emulated one. So we have two interfaces, but the virDomainDef only contains one # virsh domiflist 519 Interface Type Source Model MAC ------------------------------------------------------- vif519.0-emu bridge br0 - 00:16:3e:7a:35:ce Not a fault of this patch, but we'll need to figure out how to handle the implicitly created PV nic. The interesting case is identifying emulated nics that have been unplugged by a nice guest, and hence no longer exist in the host (e.g. vif519.0-emu in the above example).

Aside from the implicit PV nic issue, the patch works for me with the below diff squashed in. What do you think of this change? Does it work for you?
