Commit f7afeddc added code to report to systemd an array of interface
indexes for all tap devices used by a guest. Unfortunately it not only
didn't add code to report the ifindexes for macvtap interfaces
(interface type='direct') or the tap devices used by type='ethernet',
it ended up sending "-1" as the ifindex for each macvtap or hostdev
interface. This resulted in a failure to start any domain that had a
macvtap or hostdev interface (or actually any type other than
"network" or "bridge").
This patch does the following with the nicindexes array:
1) Modify qemuBuildInterfaceCommandLine() to only fill in the
nicindexes array if given a non-NULL pointer to an array (and modifies
the test jig calls to the function to send NULL). This is because
there are tests in the test suite that have type='ethernet' and still
have an ifname specified, but that device of course doesn't actually
exist on the test system, so attempts to call virNetDevGetIndex() will
fail.
2) Even then, only add an entry to the nicindexes array for
appropriate types, and to do so for all appropriate types ("network",
"bridge", and "direct"), but only if the ifname is known (since that
is required to call virNetDevGetIndex().
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.
