Hi all, When IPv6 is disabled in modprobed.conf through:

options ipv6 disable=1

libvirtd cannot start on boot, it produces the following debug message:

libvirtd: 1545: error : virCommandWait:2192 : internal error Child process (/bin/sh -c IPT=/usr/sbin/ip6tables cmd='$IPT -n -L FORWARD' eval res=\$\("${cmd} 2>&1"\) if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then echo "Failure to execute command '${cmd}' : '${res}'."; exit 1;fi

libvirtd: 851: error : virNetSocketNewListenTCP:226 : Unable to create socket: Address family not supported by protocol

However, I can successfuly start libvirtd later on without IPv6 support. I think IPv6 is disabled in the early stage during system boot, so libvirtd should not assume the IPv6 is in exist during service start. But I could be wrong, please point me out, Thanks.
