Hi! Sometimes ago i'm write patch for setting link state of
network
interface for ethernet type (tap).
Now i'm try libvirt 3.3.0 and see, that tap interfaces is up but in
xml i'm try to specify
<link state='down'>
also i'm try
<source><link state='down'></source>
Nothing changed. Laine says, that link state is only for internal
representation, and to modify link state on host side i need to
specify <source><link state='down'></source>.
I remember we talked about implementing that, but did we actually do it?
I may implied/suggested that I would, and then dropped the ball (it's
happened before :-/)
Definitely I did push the patch that disconnects the up/down status of
the host side of the tap from the up/down status of the emulated NIC.
For history please check email thread "qemu: remove unnecessary
setting of tap device online state"
So does this bug or it my mistake?
Thanks!
