From a2ae3d299cf9c5ada8aa42ec4271748eb479dc27 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michal Privoznik Date: Thu, 8 Dec 2022 15:35:36 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] virnetdevtap.c: Disallow pre-existing TAP devices When starting a guest with which has the target device name set (i.e. not generated by us), it may happen that the TAP device already exists. This then may lead to all sorts of problems. For instance: for the TAP device is plugged into the network's bridge, but since the TAP device is persistent it remains plugged there even after the guest is shut off. We don't have a code that unplugs TAP devices from the bridge because TAP devices we create are transient, i.e. are removed automatically when QEMU closes their FD. The only exception is with where we specifically want to let users use pre-created TAP device and basically not touch it at all. There's another reason for denying to use a pre-created TAP devices: if we ever have bug in TAP name generation, we may re-use a TAP device from another domain.
