Description of problem: When I try connecting to my local libvirtd/qemu in from network-manager the following error is displayed: Error polling connection 'qemu:///system': XML error: bond interface misses the bond element I've deleted my configuration in /etc/libvirtd/ & /var/run/libvirtd and reinstall libvirt-daemon. I can connect to other libvirtd instances over the network (on OpenSUSE machines) so I suppose the problem is not with virt-manager. The journal doesn't provide anything else than the same XML error message. It used to work very well, I assume a recent update broke it...
This appears to be fixed upstream: commit 7284c499e54e538fd0ab35a1f09e358f06fc23b0 Author: Laine Stump <laine> Date: Mon Apr 7 15:32:00 2014 +0300 interface: dump inactive xml when interface isn't active
Hi, I applied the patch to libvirt-1.1.3.4-3.fc20. It fixes the problem but breaks the compile-time tests (I had to disable them). Thanks a lot, this patch should be backported to the current FC20 version. F.
I spoke to fast, I can use virt manager again, but the tests were right: it breaks the network. F.
Created attachment 885882 [details] FC20 dump inactive xml and Introduce netcfInterfaceObjIsActive Okay, applying this patch https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2013-December/msg00612.html make it pass the tests and /sort of/ work. I still have to do some manual bonding configuration (like removing routes from the host's physical bonded interface) for network to work, but I don't know if it's related to this bug or a configuration problem. The attached patch is what I used. F.
