commit e2d7189f4ff7e4a2697256cf3f695327e1d71db2 Author: Sahid Orentino Ferdjaoui <[email protected]> Date: Mon Jul 2 17:42:05 2018 +0200 libvirt: add qemu version check when configuring mtu for network This adds a QEMU check when configuring MTU for ethernet and bridge interface types. When creating and configuring tap devices, libvirt is setting MTU but also configures the virtio-net devices to let it discovers the MTU used. This QEMU 'host_mtu' option is supported by QEMU version 2.9 and more.

Engineering Team, which is subscribed to OpenStack Compute (nova). https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1779626 Title: MTU setting feature conflicts with minimum Qemu version Status in OpenStack Compute (nova): Fix Released Bug description: Afaics Nova breaks with Qemu versions newer than the minimum required version. The change at [1] added support for setting MTU size in the libvirt settings of guests. This code checks for a minimum libvirt version 3.3.0 [2] but not for a required Qemu version. The Nova minimum required Qemu version is 2.5 currently according to [3] (which is the latest release available with Ubuntu Xenial 16.04). Afaics Qemu added support with release 2.9 [4] which means versions 2.5 to 2.8 of Qemu will break despite being listed as supported iiuc. This issue broke our CIs. For verification i checked the master commit [5] which merged prior to [1] which tested ok with our CI. The fix probably is to simply add a check for the minimum required Qemu version beside the minimum required libvirt version.
