As already documented in https://bugs.launchpad.net/mos/+bug/1501738 there is a bug in the default libnl library release installed on Ubuntu 14.04.4. When trying to enable a guest with more than 30 VFs attached, the following error is returned: error: Failed to start domain guest1 error: internal error: missing IFLA_VF_INFO in netlink response [Test Case] 1) Edit /etc/default/grub. GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="intel_iommu=on ixgbe.max_vfs=63" 2) Update grub and reboot the machine. $ sudo update-grub 3) Check that the virtual functions are available. $ sudo lspci|grep -i eth | grep -i virtual | wc -l 126 4) Create a KVM guest. $ sudo uvt-kvm create guest1 release=trusty 5) List the VF devices. $ sudo lspci|grep -i eth | grep -i virtual | awk '{print $1}' | sed 's/\:/\_/g' | sed 's/\./\_/g' > devices.txt 6) Get the libvirt node device. $ sudo for device in $(cat ./devices.txt); do virsh nodedev-list | grep $device; done > pci_devices.txt 7) Generate the XML config for each device. $ sudo mkdir devices && for d in $(cat pci_devices.txt); do virsh nodedev-dumpxml $d > devices/$d.xml; done 8) Save and Run the following script. (http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/23374186/) $ sudo python generate-interfaces.py |grep address | wc -l 9) Finally attach the devices to the guest. $ sudo for i in $(seq 0 63); do virsh attach-device guest1 ./interfaces/$i.xml --config; done Device attached successfully [...] Device attached successfully Device attached successfully 10) Then destroy/start the guest again, at this point the error is reproduced. $ sudo virsh destroy guest1 Domain guest1 destroyed $ sudo virsh start guest1 error: Failed to start domain guest1 error: internal error: missing IFLA_VF_INFO in netlink response [Regression Potential] * None identified.
