Description Frantisek Sumsal 2022-03-02 15:16:50 UTC
Description of problem:
In our systemd CI we use the Rawhide libvirt-based Vagrant boxes[0] to test systemd/SELinux interoperability. Recently, I noticed that the boxes fail to boot completely without any apparent reason. After digging a bit deeper, it looks like NetworkManager fails to bring up network even though calling `dhclient` manually on the affected machine correctly fetches the necessary addresses.

I can reproduce this reliably on CentOS Stream 8 with Vagrant 2.2.19[1] and vagrant-libvirt 0.7.0.

[0] https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Cloud/x86_64/images/
[1] https://releases.hashicorp.com/vagrant/2.2.19/

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
# rpm -q libvirt vagrant centos-stream-release
libvirt-8.0.0-2.module_el8.6.0+1087+b42c8331.x86_64
vagrant-2.2.19-1.x86_64
centos-stream-release-8.6-1.el8.noarch

Steps to Reproduce:
# cat >Vagrantfile <<EOF
Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  config.vm.define :rawhide_selinux
  config.vm.box = "fedora-rawhide-cloud"
  config.vm.box_url = "https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/development/rawhide/Cloud/x86_64/images/Fedora-Cloud-Base-Vagrant-Rawhide-20220302.n.0.x86_64.vagrant-libvirt.box"

  config.vm.provider :libvirt do |libvirt|
    libvirt.driver = "kvm"
    libvirt.memory = "4096"
    libvirt.cpus = "4"
    libvirt.random :model => 'random'
  end
end
EOF
# vagrant up

Actual results:
Vagrant hangs and eventually times out when trying to obtain an IP address:
```
==> rawhide_selinux:  -- RNG device model:  random
==> rawhide_selinux: Creating shared folders metadata...
==> rawhide_selinux: Starting domain.
==> rawhide_selinux: Waiting for domain to get an IP address...
```

Closer inspection:
```

Expected results:
The machine should boot up with a working network. This used to work flawlessly until a couple of days ago (the last successful run was from Feb 24).

Comment 1 Dusty Mabe 2022-03-10 15:05:50 UTC
This is because the Network-config-server package is installed which lays down a configuration file that tells it not to activate any devices unless there is a specific configuration for them.

Since the vagrant box doesn't run cloud-init (which I assume will create a NM config file for a connection) there will be no connections by default.

Comment 3 Fedora Blocker Bugs Application 2022-03-10 21:28:55 UTC
Proposed as a Freeze Exception for 36-beta by Fedora user dustymabe using the blocker tracking app because:

 Would be nice to have vagrant boxes working so that people can play with the 36 beta and find bugs before final.
