[Xen-devel] ãproblemãWhy can't modify mac addr in the saved state file to restore a vm with the specific mac addr?

[éç <aware.why@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

    `xl save domid saved-state-file` will generate a saved state file which consists of three parts: vm configuration, memory dump and qemu state info.

    

    So, I try to modify the `vifspec` in vm configuration for a different mac addr, and modify the 6-bytes mac in the rtl8139 section of the qemu state info.

    But when restoreing by the modified saved state file, although I restarted the network within the vm, I couldn't get the specific mac addr , it's still the original mac.

   Why should this happen?  It's odd.

Thanks
