Commit c9a641 (first appearred in 1.2.12) added support for setting the guest-side IP address of veth devices in lxc domains. Unfortunately, it hardcoded the assumption that the proper prefix for any IP address with no explicit prefix in the config should be "24"; that is only correct for class C IPv4 addresses, but not for any other IPv4 address, nor for any IPv6 address. The good news is that there is already a function in libvirt that will determine the proper default prefix for any IP address. This patch replaces the use of the ill-fated VIR_SOCKET_ADDR_DEFAULT_PREFIX with calls to virSocketAddrGetIPPrefix().
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.
