From d749a84b9728b4c1a46c9e6efbab5732688d03c2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 Message-Id: From: John Ferlan Date: Sat, 10 Nov 2018 08:50:06 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] qemu: Ignore nwfilter binding instantiation issues during reconnect https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1648544 (RHEL8) https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1607202 (RHEL7) It's essentially stated in the nwfilterBindingDelete that we will allow the admin to shoot themselves in the foot by deleting the nwfilter binding which then allows them to undefine the nwfilter that is in use for the running guest... However, by allowing this we cause a problem for libvirtd restart reconnect processing which would then try to recreate the missing binding attempting to use the deleted filter resulting in an error and thus shutting the guest down. So rather than keep adding virDomainConfNWFilterInstantiate flags to "ignore" specific error conditions, modify the logic to ignore, but VIR_WARN errors other than ignoreExists. This will at least allow the guest to not shutdown for only nwfilter binding errors that we can now perhaps recover from since we have the binding create/delete capability.
