HV = 12.04 LTS Ubuntu + libvirt 1.0x
VM = 12.04 LTS Ubuntu
When multiple bridged eth interfaces are created on the VM, they do not appear
in predictable order. They appear before
virtual function addresses, but eth0-eth7 in this case do not order according
to the interfaces file on the HV, nor the
PCI bus, nor the xml file used to virsh create the VM.
A libvirt developer reports that they send the eths to qemu in PCI bus order.
A bug? workarounds? ideas? Correction?
an interface stanza from the xml used to create the VM:
<interface type='bridge'>
<mac address='52:54:00:72:92:c4'/>
<source bridge='br11'/>
<model type='virtio'/>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x11'
function='0x0'/>
</interface>
(I have also entered a bug report)
thanks.
