The following patch addresses the problem that when a PASSTHROUGH mode DIRECT NIC connection is made the MAC address of the NIC is not automatically set and reset to the configured VM MAC and back again. The attached patch fixes this problem by setting and resetting the MAC while remembering the previous setting while the VM is running. This also works if libvirtd is restarted while the VM is running. the patch passes make syntax-check
LibVirt : simple API for virtualization
Libvirt is a C toolkit to interact with the virtualization capabilities
of recent versions of Linux (and other OSes). It is free software
available under the GNU Lesser General Public License. Virtualization of
the Linux Operating System means the ability to run multiple instances of
Operating Systems concurrently on a single hardware system where the basic
resources are driven by a Linux instance. The library aim at providing
long term stable C API initially for the Xen paravirtualization but
should be able to integrate other virtualization mechanisms if needed.
