The order in which virNetworkUpdate() accepts @section and
@command arguments is not the same as in which it passes them
onto networkUpdate() callback. Until recently, it did not really
matter, because calling the API on client side meant arguments
were encoded in reversed order (compared to the public API), but
then on the server it was fixed again - because the server
decoded RPC (still swapped), called public API (still swapped)
and in turn called the network driver callback (with reversing
the order - so magically fixing the order).
Long story short, if the public API is called even number of
times those swaps cancel each other out. The problem is when the
API is called an odd numbed of times - which happens with split
daemons and the right URI. There's one call in the client (e.g.
virsh net-update), the other in a hypervisor daemon (say
virtqemud) which ends up calling the API in the virnetworkd.
The fix is obvious - fix the order in which arguments are passed
to the callback.
But, to maintain compatibility with older, yet unfixed, daemons
new connection feature is introduced. The feature is detected
just before calling the callback and allows client to pass
arguments in correct order (talking to fixed daemon) or in
reversed order (talking to older daemon).
Unfortunately, older client talking to newer daemon can't be
fixed. Let's hope that it's less frequent scenario.

So far, it was not needed, but shortly a client will want to know
whether virNetworkUpdate() API is fixed or not. See next commits
for more info.
Side note, this driver's implementation is called only when using
sub-driver's connection, i.e. "network:///system". For any other
URI the corresponding hypervisor's driver callback is called.

In the past, the MTU of libvirt virtual network bridge devices was
implicitly set by setting the MTU of the "dummy tap device" (which was
being added in order to force a particular MAC address from the
bridge). But the dummy tap device was removed in commit ee6c936fbb
(libvirt-6.8.0), and so the mtu setting in the network is ignored.
The solution is, of course, to explicitly set the bridge device MTU
when it is created.
Note that any guest interface with a larger MTU that is attached will
cause the bridge to (temporarily) assume the larger MTU, but it will
revert to the bridge's own MTU when that device is deleted (this is
not due to anything libvirt does; it's just how Linux host bridges
work).

When defining/creating a network the bridge name may be filled in
automatically by libvirt (if none provided in the input XML or
the one provided is a pattern, e.g. "virbr%d"). During the
bridge name generation process a candidate name is generated
which is then checked with the rest of already defined/running
networks for collisions.
Problem is, that there is no mutex guarding this critical section
and thus if two threads line up so that they both generate the
same candidate they won't find any collision and the same name is
then stored.

If leasehelper fails all that we are left with is a simple error
message produced by dnsmasq:
lease-init script returned exit code 1
This is because the leasehelper did not write any message to
stderr. According to dnsmasq's manpage, whenever it's invoking
leasehelper the stderr is kept open:
All file descriptors are closed except stdin, which is open to
/dev/null, and stdout and stderr which capture output for
logging by dnsmasq.
As debugging leasehelper is not trivial (because dnsmasq invokes
it with plenty of env vars set - that's how data is passed onto
helper), let's print an error into stderr if exiting with an
error. And since we are not calling public APIs, we have to call
virDispatchError() explicitly and since we don't have any
connection open, we have to pass NULL.

We are generating a fresh UUID and storing it in the XML for the

0f7436ca54 added code during virtual network startup to wait for DAD
(Duplicate Address Detection) to complete if there were any IPv6
addresses on the network. This wait was needed because (according to
the commit log) "created problems when [the "dummy" tap device] is set
to IFF_DOWN prior to DAD completing".
That commit in turn referenced commit db488c7917, which had added the
code to set the dummy tap device IFF_DOWN, commenting "DAD has
happened (dnsmasq waits for it)", and in its commit message pointed
out that if we just got rid of the dummy tap device this wouldn't be
needed.
Now that the dummy tap device has indeed been removed (commit
ee6c936fbb), there is no longer any need to set it IFF_DOWN, and thus
nothing requiring us to wait for DAD to complete. At any rate, with
the dummy tap device removed, leaving nothing else on the bridge when
it is first started, DAD never completes, leading to failure to start
any IPv6 network.
So, yes, this patch removes the wait for DAD completion, and IPv6
networks can once again start, and their associated dnsmasq process
starts successfully (this is the problem that the DAD wait was
originally intended to fix)

A long time ago we introduced a dummy tap device (e.g. virbr0-nic) that

Give each virtual network bridge its own fixed MAC address
This was a hack to workaround a Linux kernel bug where it would not
honour any attempt to set a MAC address on a bridge. Instead the
bridge would adopt the numerically lowest MAC address of all NICs
attached to the bridge. This lead to the MAC addrss of the bridge
changing over time as NICs were attached/detached.
The Linux bug was actually fixed 3 years before the libvirt
workaround was added in:

but libvirt needed to support RHEL-5 kernels at that time, so
none the less added the workaround.
We have long since dropped support for RHEL-5 vintage distros,
so there's no reason to keep the dummy tap device for the purpose
of setting the bridge MAC address.
Later the dummy TAP device was used for a second purpose related
to IPv6 DAD (Duplicate Address Detection) in:

network: fix dnsmasq/radvd binding to IPv6 on recent kernels
This was again dealing with a regression in the Linux kernel, where
if there were no devices attached to the bridge in the UP state,
IPv6 DAD would not be performed. The virbr0-nic was attached but
in the DOWN state, so the above libvirt fix tenporarily brought
the NIC online. The Linux commit causing the problem was in v2.6.38
commit 1faa4356a3bd89ea11fb92752d897cff3a20ec0e

bridge: control carrier based on ports online
A short while later Linux was tweaked so that DAD would still occur
if the bridge had no attached devices at all in 3.1:

Author: stephen hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com>
Date: Mon Oct 3 18:14:45 2011 +0000
bridge: leave carrier on for empty bridge
IOW, the only reason we need the DAD hack of bringing virbr0-nic
online is because virbr0-nic exists. Once it doesn't exist, then
we hit the "empty bridge" case which works in Linux.
We can rely on distros having Linux kernel >= 3.1, so both things
that the virbr0-nic are doing are redundant.

use different types of quotes around attributes.
Since the canonical version of all libvirt XML documents (as
