Moving to libvirt-users where it belongs.

Libvirt version is 4.5.0I can reproduce this, and also confirm that it shouldn't happen :) qemuDomainAssignAddresses() is supposed to make sure that any address configured explicitly by the user (or previously by libvirt) is preserved, and it's doing that correctly when it's called from inside qemuDomainDefAssignAddresses(); however, for some reason, by the time we call it again in qemuProcessPrepareDomain() the PCI address for the network interface is no longer set, and so a fresh one gets assigned instead.

You'll see we replace the original type=bridge NIC with a type=ethernet, except we fail to copy the address info & probably other properties too.

Adding yet more properties to the list of those we record before calling virDomainNetDefClear() and restore afterwards would be a stop-gap measure at best; limiting ourselves to merely changing net->type, on the other hand, though it seems to work from a quick test, will likely lead to hitting other corner cases. Formatting the XML, replacing the type attribute and parsing it back perhaps? Other, hopefully better, ideas? -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization
