Agreed - libvirt ALWAYS passes a MAC to qemu, even if the user did not specify a MAC to libvirt, precisely because the MAC must be reproducible rather than random to avoid changing the guest ABI. I don't think this patch is needed - it's up to management to use qemu correctly. -- Eric Blake eblake redhat com +1-919-301-3266 Libvirt virtualization library http://libvirt.org
