When using the xm/xend stack to manage instances there is a bug that causes the emulated interfaces to be unusable when the vif config contains type=ioemu. The current code already has a special quirk to not use this keyword if no specific model is given for the emulated NIC (defaulting to rtl8139). Essentially it works because regardless of the type argument,i the Xen stack always creates emulated and paravirt interfaces and lets the guest decide which one to use. So neither xl nor xm stack actually require the type keyword for emulated NICs. Signed-off-by: Stefan Bader <stefan.bader@canonical.com>
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
