All,
I have a virtual machine with eight VIF virtual devices attached to it. Bringing up the HVM works without issue, however, *-emu devices are not assigning themselves correctly to the bridges.
[root@xen-tester xen]# brctl show
bridge name bridge id STP enabled interfaces
xenbr0 8000.feffffffffff no vif35.0
vif35.0-emu
vif35.3-emu
vif35.4-emu
vif35.5-emu
vif35.6-emu
vif35.7-emu
xenbr1 8000.feffffffffff no vif35.1
vif35.1-emu
xenbr2 8000.feffffffffff no vif35.2
vif35.2-emu
xenbr3 8000.feffffffffff no vif35.3
xenbr4 8000.feffffffffff no vif35.4
xenbr5 8000.feffffffffff no vif35.5
xenbr6 8000.feffffffffff no vif35.6
xenbr7 8000.feffffffffff no vif35.7
All the –emu devices should follow their parent devices to the assigned bridge…at least I’d assume that so. However, as you can see, 5 of them do not.
Any ideas as to why this is occurring?

All,
When assigning both VIF networking devices and PCI passthrough based network devices, which are created first, the VIF or the PCI in the DomU?
