[libvirt] Potential bug: spice port collision on different addresses
Hi all, I think I've found a bug in either libvirt or spice. I'll give a short description here, but I have a stack exchange question that also has information here: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/541127/how-to-listen-on-same-port-s... Basically, have spice for VM1 listen to port 5900 on 10.0.0.2 and spice for VM2 listen to port 5900 on 10.0.0.3, and you'll get an error message saying the ports collide, even though they shouldn't be (they are listening on different addresses). I've tried going to the #virt irc channel with very limited responses, and would appreciate hearing what you all have to say about this issue. Thanks! - Michael

That sounds like a bug in out port allocator implementation which, at least at the time I last saw it, did not consider addresses, only ports. Would you mind filing a BZ for this issue so we do not forget about it and it can be properly tracked?

Or maybe I should read everything thoroughly: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1751969
