Description yunpingzheng 2013-04-25 13:06:33 UTC 
Description of problem:
boot windows guest(win 8, win2008r2) with e1000 nic, after guest boot modify the guest nic mtu, then disable /enable the the guest nic. the guest hang.

like:
>  reg add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\0012 /v *jumbopacket /d 16128 /f && netsh interface ipv4 set subinterface interface="Local Area Connection 2" mtu=16128 store=persistent

> netsh interface set interface name="Local Area Connection 2" admin=DISABLED


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel: 2.6.32-369.el6.x86_64
qemu :  qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.360.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
100%

Steps to Reproduce:
1. boot guest with e1000 nic
2. modify the guest mtu
 > reg add HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E972-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}\0012 /v *jumbopacket /d 16128 /f && netsh interface ipv4 set subinterface interface="Local Area Connection 2" mtu=16128 store=persistent

3. disable /enable the guest network:
  netsh interface set interface name="Local Area Connection 2" admin=DISABLED

4. repeat step 2 and 3 
Actual results:
guest hang

Expected results:
guest nic can disable/enable successfully

Comment 2 jason wang 2013-04-26 04:58:19 UTC 
Is it really related to MTU, how about just enable/disable?

hi,jason
   Test as your method ,hit same problem.

Tried this bug as following version:
Host 
# uname -r
2.6.32-371.el6.x86_64
# rpm -q qemu-kvm
qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.361.el6.x86_64

Guest:win8/64

How reproducible:40%

Steps to reproduce

1).Boot guest with 
/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm -name vm1 -monitor stdio -chardev socket,id=serial_id_serial1,path=/tmp/serial-serial1-20130425-202813-JHeQVs9a,server,nowait -device isa-serial,chardev=serial_id_serial1 -chardev socket,id=seabioslog_id_20130425-202813-JHeQVs9a,path=/tmp/seabios-20130425-202813-JHeQVs9a,server,nowait -device isa-debugcon,chardev=seabioslog_id_20130425-202813-JHeQVs9a,iobase=0x402 -device ich9-usb-uhci1,id=usb1,bus=pci.0,addr=0x4 -drive file=/home/win8-64.qcow2,if=none,id=drive-virtio-disk1,media=disk,cache=none,snapshot=on,id=virtio-disk1,format=qcow2,aio=native -device virtio-blk-pci,bus=pci.0,addr=0x5,drive=drive-virtio-disk1 -device e1000,netdev=idCt2vtb,mac=9a:23:24:25:26:27,bus=pci.0,addr=0x3,id=idFOxubc -netdev tap,id=idCt2vtb,script=/etc/qemu-ifup -m 1024 -smp 1,maxcpus=1,cores=1,threads=1,sockets=2 -cpu SandyBridge -M pc -drive if=none,id=drive-ide0-0-0,media=cdrom,snapshot=off,id=ide0-0-0,format=raw -device ide-drive,bus=ide.0,unit=0,drive=drive-ide0-0-0 -device AC97 -device usb-tablet,id=usb-tablet1,bus=usb1.0,port=1 -vnc :0 -vga std -rtc base=localtime,clock=host,driftfix=slew -boot order=cdn,once=c,menu=off -enable-kvm

2.In guest check NIC index,macdress,netconnectionid

#wmic nic get index,macaddress,netconnectionid
1
2 
..
13 9A:23:24:25:26:27 Ethernet 2

3.Open serial server
#cd c:\
press serialport

4. In host 
[root@localhost ~]# nc -U /tmp/serial-serial1-20130425-202813-JHeQVs9a 

Please wait...
Microsoft Windows [Version 6.2.9200]

C:\>
netsh interface set interface name="Ethernet 2" admin=DISABLED && netsh interface set interface name="Ethernet 2" admin=ENABLED

Results:
Guest hang

1)Commend0 can be reproduce

2)Win2012/64 can be hit

3)If execute "netsh interface set interface name="Ethernet 2" admin=DISABLED"--> then "manual enable the Nic" -->also can be hit 

4)If you can not reporduce,please try more times

5)Seem this bug happen on the intervasl between disabled/enable Nic very small.(eg 1s~2s).But not sure.
