Hi -

I have a curious situation.  The environment is a Linux CentOS 7 system
with an ovs bridge (ovs-bridge) and two tap devices (abs-tap and
qemu-tap).  When running a qemu vm attached to qemu-tap I can receive
(inside the qemu vm) arbitrary UDP packets.  However, when I try to send a
UDP packet from the qemu vm to the host system, it never arrives; that is,
the host can send UDP packets to the vm but not the reverse.  Well, it
isn't that the vm can't send the packets - I'm sure it does - but the host
doesn't get them.

To make it even more curious, if I start up a second vm attached to
abs-tap, the two vms can send UDP packets to each other without a problem
but neither can send a UDP packet to a real machine on the network.

Am I missing something important in the bridging and tap device setup?
