I don't recommend hooks, write small netlink based program that listens events about interface up, check it names and set proxy arp for it. This is not blocking and easy to modify/test/write.

That's good to know, thank you Laine. In that case perhaps adding this functionality to libvirt itself would make more sense? Some background, I'm implementing https://vincent.bernat.ch/en/blog/2018-l3-routing-hypervisor, so announcing /32 host routes to our vms with BGP. Our existing vms use /24 network addressing, and to keep that working, I need to set proxy_arp on the interface.

While I don't have a network defined in xml, I'd expect this to work just as well for 'ethernet' type interfaces. Am I wrong? Hotplugging an 'ethernet' type of interface doesn't really relate to any libvirt network. Hence libvirt doesn't call 'network' hook script. If you'd continue reading you'll see what is the 'network' hook fed with (on stdin): info on domain in question AND network where the event ocurred. But there is no network, is it? No not in the libvirt sense there isn't, you're right. But maybe you can work around this by waiting for DEVICE_ADDED/DEVICE_REMOVED events? What is it that you're trying to solve? I'd like to enable proxy_arp on the interface among other things. I can easily do this from the same script that adds the interface though, so I have a workaround, but a hook that triggers on all interface events felt cleaner. Also keep in mind that the hook scripts aren't an officially supported part of the API, and are thus liable to change without warning. As an example, danpb has proposed changing the network hook: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2019-March/msg01280.html Once this goes in, any network hook script that uses the plugged and unplugged hooks will no longer work; you would instead need to use the port-created and port-deleted hooks. ___ libvirt-users mailing list libvirt-users@redhat.com https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/libvirt-users
