Package: isc-dhcp-server
Version: 4.3.1-6
Severity: important
DHCPD being broken on virtual interfaces aka bug 717215
reoccurs in jessie, used to work in wheezy. I cannot reopen it as
it is archived.
1. The fact that qemu/kvm has a fugly workaround to compute as
an exeption DHCP packets is not a solution - it is an excuse.
It should go anyway as it is a performance penalty (checking each
packet if it is a DHCP one to do checksum).
2. The real solution is to make dhcp not do checksums on bridge, tap,
virtual ethernet, l2tp and EoGRE tunnels, etc by configuration. As
this is quite cumbersome, supplied is a workaround which will work
for most users - it prevents dhcpd from computing checksum on
"locally significant" MACs (bit 1 of ethernet address == 1).
This will make dhcp work on all kinds of virtual interfaces.

That information is already captured in #717215. If you can prepare a
reviewable jessie-pu patch from the upstream 4.3.2 changes, I will
consider it.
Best wishes,
