I can see that's inconvenient, but...
If we set links down by 'set_link virtio-net-pci.0', the first nic
will be set down. But how to set the second link down by id?
As you would do for all devices? I.e., add ,id=youruniqueid to -device.
Hi KONRAD,
Your following patch just introduced a regression, 'id' assigned to -device
could not be set as net-client name.
A regression from "net: make nic name unique" ?
No, regression caused by commit: e37da3945fa2fde161e1b217f937fc318c4b7639
qemu -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=ndev1,id=id1 -netdev tap,id=ndev1 \

yes :/, that seems to be the side effect of cutting virtio-net-pci in
virtio-net-pci + virtio-net-device.
Here virtio-net-device is the network device as you see in info network.
virtio-net-pci isn't anymore.
I wonder how to solve that as we can't duplicate the id.
If we don't assign 'id' for -device, the net-client name will be auto
generated (not duplicated).
Before your commit e37da394, user assigned 'id' will be record to
(DeviceState *)dev->id, it will be used in qemu_new_nic().
Yes sure, what I mean, is:
virtio-net-pci actually get the id and is not the nic device anymore.
and virtio-net-pci create the new virtio-net-device which has no id
(so it is autogenerated).
That's why you didn't the id in info network.
I will take a look.
