Description of problem: The two latest F15 kernel updates break KVM networking after suspending the hypervisor. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.42.7-1.fc15.x86_64 kernel-2.6.42.9-1.fc15.x86_64 How reproducible: always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use KVM to host some VMs 2. Suspend the hypervisor. In my case it's an Lenovo Thinkpad X201 3. Wake it up again Actual results: No more internet on any of the VMs. They can ping the hypervisor on 192.168.122.1 just fine, they can ping each other but no other external addresses. It doesn't matter if they were running or powered off when the hypervisor was suspended. Restarting libvirtd and libvirt-guests does not help, so far the only way I found to bring back networking is to reboot the hypervisor. This works until I suspend it again. Expected results: VMs should still have internet. Additional info: Booting kernel-2.6.42.3-2.fc15.x86_64 brings back the network, no matter how often I suspend the hypervisor.
Note this affects all VMs, regardless of the distro or kernel they are running. $ rpm -q libvirt qemu-kvm libvirt-0.8.8-7.fc15.x86_64 qemu-kvm-0.14.0-8.fc15.x86_64
Are you still seeing this with 2.6.43/3.3?
