The function that parses the <forward> subelement of a network used to
fail/log an error if the network definition contained both a <pf>
element as well as at least one <interface> or <address> element. That
check was present because the configuration of a network should have
either one <pf>, one or more <interface>, or one or more <address>,
but never combinations of multiple kinds.
This caused a problem when libvirtd was restarted with a network
already active - when a network with a <pf> element is started, the
referenced PF (Physical Function of an SRIOV-capable network card) is
checked for VFs (Virtual Functions), and the <forward> is filled in
with a list of all VFs for that PF either in the form of their PCI
addresses (a list of <address>) or their netdev names (a list of
<interface>); the <pf> element is not removed though. When libvirtd is
restarted, it parses the network status and finds both the original
<pf> from the config, as well as the list of either <address> or
<interface>, fails the parse, and the network is not added to the
active list. This failure is often obscured because the network is
marked as autostart so libvirt immediately restarts it.
It seems odd to me that <interface> and <address> are stored in the
same array rather than keeping two separate arrays, and having
separate arrays would have made the check much simpler. However,
changing to use two separate arrays would have required changes in
more places, potentially creating more conflicts and (more
importantly) more possible regressions in the event of a backport, so
I chose to keep the existing data structure in order to localize the
change.
It appears that this problem has been in the code ever since support
for <pf> was added (0.9.10), but until commit

libvirt library code README
===========================
The directory provides the bulk of the libvirt codebase. Everything
except for the libvirtd daemon and client tools. The build uses a
large number of libtool convenience libraries - one for each child
directory, and then links them together for the final libvirt.so,
although some bits get linked directly to libvirtd daemon instead.
The files directly in this directory are supporting the public API
entry points & data structures.
There are two core shared modules to be aware of:
* util/ - a collection of shared APIs that can be used by any
code. This directory is always in the include path
for all things built
* conf/ - APIs for parsing / manipulating all the official XML
files used by the public API. This directory is only
in the include path for driver implementation modules
* vmx/ - VMware VMX config handling (used by esx/ and vmware/)
Then there are the hypervisor implementations:
* bhyve - bhyve - The BSD Hypervisor
* esx/ - VMware ESX and GSX support using vSphere API over SOAP
* hyperv/ - Microsoft Hyper-V support using WinRM
* lxc/ - Linux Native Containers
* openvz/ - OpenVZ containers using cli tools
* phyp/ - IBM Power Hypervisor using CLI tools over SSH
* qemu/ - QEMU / KVM using qemu CLI/monitor
* remote/ - Generic libvirt native RPC client
* test/ - A "mock" driver for testing
* uml/ - User Mode Linux
* vbox/ - Virtual Box using native API
* vmware/ - VMware Workstation and Player using the vmrun tool
* xen/ - Xen using hypercalls, XenD SEXPR & XenStore
* xenapi/ - Xen using libxenserver
Finally some secondary drivers that are shared for several HVs.
Currently these are used by LXC, OpenVZ, QEMU, UML and Xen drivers.
The ESX, Hyper-V, Power Hypervisor, Remote, Test & VirtualBox drivers all
implement the secondary drivers directly
* cpu/ - CPU feature management
* interface/ - Host network interface management
* network/ - Virtual NAT networking
* nwfilter/ - Network traffic filtering rules
* node_device/ - Host device enumeration
* secret/ - Secret management
* security/ - Mandatory access control drivers
* storage/ - Storage management drivers
Since both the hypervisor and secondary drivers can be built as
dlopen()able modules, it is *FORBIDDEN* to have build dependencies
between these directories. Drivers are only allowed to depend on
the public API, and the internal APIs in the util/ and conf/
directories
