------- Comment From stefanb.com 2010-03-01 18:49 EDT------- All relevant patches have been applied to libvirt as of 3/1/2010. libvirt-0.7.7-1.el6 has been built in RHEL-6-candidate with the fixes, Daniel Hum, apparently the macvtap support isn't yet available in the RHEL-6 environment or libvirt configure failed to find it: configure: Drivers configure: configure: Xen: no configure: Proxy: no configure: QEMU: yes configure: UML: no configure: OpenVZ: no configure: VBox: no configure: LXC: yes configure: PHYP: no configure: ONE: no configure: ESX: no configure: Test: yes configure: Remote: yes configure: Network: yes configure: Libvirtd: yes configure: netcf: yes configure: macvtap: no configure: either support isn't yet in kernel or libvirt failed to find it Daniel macvtap tracked here: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=553337 ------- Comment From stefanb.com 2010-03-09 07:33 EDT------- (In reply to comment #8) > macvtap tracked here: > https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=553337 After upgrading to 2.6.34-rc1 I found that the macvtap build detection did not work. (Had been building it with the existing code for quite a while) So here's the fix that needs to be applied: Index: libvirt-acl/configure.ac =================================================================== --- libvirt-acl.orig/configure.ac +++ libvirt-acl/configure.ac @@ -1849,7 +1849,8 @@ AC_ARG_WITH([macvtap], [with_macvtap=check]) if test "$with_macvtap" != "no" ; then - AC_TRY_COMPILE([ #include <linux/if_link.h> ], + AC_TRY_COMPILE([ #include <sys/socket.h> + #include <linux/rtnetlink.h> ], [ int x = MACVLAN_MODE_BRIDGE; ], [ with_macvtap=yes ], [ if test "$with_macvtap" = "yes" ; then libvirt-0.7.0-0.pre20100322 is built with that macvtap detection check fix, Daniel I'm rebuilding a new version, and with the new -22 kernel in the buildroot the feature is being detected now: configure: macvtap: yes so I think this is now available for testing in libvirt-0.8.0-2.el6, Daniel ------- Comment From gerhard.stenzel.com 2010-05-11 07:22 EDT------- I verified RHEL 6.0 snap 1 contains libivrt 0.8.0-3, which includes this feature. According to comment 23, change this bug to VERIFIED status Red Hat Enterprise Linux Beta 2 is now available and should resolve the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of CURRENTRELEASE. You may reopen this bug report if the solution does not work for you. |
