Title:
  QEmu +2 does not route VLAN tagged packets, that are originated within
  the Hypervisor itself.

Status in QEMU:
  New

Bug description:
  Guys,

  Trusty QEmu 2.0 Hypervisor fails to create a consistent virtual
  network. It does not route tagged VLAN packets.

  That's it, it is impossible to use Trusty acting as a QEmu 2.0
  Hypervisor (metapakage `ubuntu-virt-server`), to make a basic virtual
  tagged network within itself. QEmu 2.X guest does not route traffic
  when with tagged VLANs!

  So, Trusty QEmu 2.0 Hypervisor cannot be used to host guests acting as
  "firewalls / routers", and it have an easy to reproduce, connectivity
  problem.

  This network problem affects Ubuntu 14.04.1 (Linux-3.13.0-35-generic)
  with QEmu 2.0 (it also affects 14.10, Linux 3.16 - QEmu 2.1).

  I have this very same setup up and running, on about ~100 physical
  servers (others Trusty QEmu 2.0 Hypervisors), and in only a few of
  them, the QEmu Hypervisors dedicated to host "guest acting as routers
  / firewalls", like a "borger gateway" for example, that it does not
  work as expected.

  One interesting thing to note is that, this BUG appear only, and only
  at, the QEmu Hypervisors dedicated to host guests that are used as
  `router / firewalls` (as I said above), others QEmu Hypervisors of my
  network does not suffer from this problem.

  Another interesting point is that it fails to route tagged VLAN
  packets only when these packets are originated from within the
  Hypervisor itself, I mean, packets from both host and other guests
  (not the router/firewall guest itself), suffer from this connectivity
  problem.

  As a workaroung / fix, Xen-4.4 can be used, instead of QEmu 2.0, as a
  "border hypervisor". So, this proves that there is something wrong
  with QEmu.

  I already tested it with both `openvswitch-switch` and with `bridge-
  utils`, same bad results. So, don't waste your time trying `bridge-
  utils` (optional steps while reproducing it), you can keep OVS bridges
  from original design.

  I think that I'm using the best pratices to build this environment, as
  follows...

  * Topology *

  QEmu 2.0 Hypervisor - (qemu-host-1.domain.com - the "border
  hypervisor"):

  1- Physical machine with 3 NICs;
  2- Minimal Ubuntu 14.04.1 installed and upgraded;
  3- Packages installed: "ubuntu-virt-server openvswitch-switch rdnssd tcpdump".

  - eth0 connected to the Internet - VLAN tag 10;
  - eth1 connected to the LAN1 - VLAN tag 100;
  - eth2 connected to the LAN2 - VLAN tag 200;

  Guest (guest-fw-1.domain.com - the "border gateway" itself - regular
  guest acting as a router with iptables/ip6tables):

  1- Virtual Machine with 3 NICs (VirtIO);
  2- Minimal Virtual Machine Ubuntu 14.04.1 installed and upgraded;
  3- Packages installed: "aiccu iptables vlan pv-grub-menu".

  OBS: You'll need `virt-manager` to connect at `qemu-host-1` to install
  `guest-fw-1`. Then, use `guest-fw-1` as a default gateway for your
  (virt-)lab network, including the `qemu-host-1` itself.

  Steps to reproduce

  * Preparing the `qemu-host-1` host:

  - Configure the /etc/network/interfaces with:

  ---
  # The loopback network interface
  auto lo
  iface lo inet loopback

  auto eth0
  iface eth0 inet manual
          up ip link set $IFACE up
          down ip link set $IFACE down

  auto eth1
  iface eth1 inet manual
   up ip link set dev $IFACE up
   down ip link set dev $IFACE down

  auto ovsbr1p1
  iface ovsbr1p1 inet6 auto

  iface ovsbr1p1 inet static
   address 192.168.1.10
   netmask 24
   gateway 192.168.1.1

  auto eth2
  iface eth2 inet manual
   up ip link set $IFACE up
   down ip link set $IFACE down
  ---

  - Creating the Hypervisor OVS Bridges:

  ovs-vsctl add-br ovsbr0
  ovs-vsctl add-br ovsbr1
  ovs-vsctl add-br ovsbr2

  - Attaching the bridges to the NICs:

  ovs-vsctl add-port ovsbr0 eth0
  ovs-vsctl add-port ovsbr1 eth1
  ovs-vsctl add-port ovsbr2 eth2

  - Creating the OVS internal tagged interface (best practice?), so the
  QEmu Hypervisor itself can have its own IP (v4 and v6):

  ovs-vsctl add-port ovsbr1 ovsbr1p1 tag=100 -- set interface ovsbr1p1 
type=internal
  ovs-vsctl set interface ovsbr1p1 mac=\"32:ac:85:72:ab:fe\"

   NOTE:

   * I'm fixing the MAC Address of ovsbr1p1 because I like to use IPv6
  with SLAAC, so, it remain fixed across host reboots.

  - Making Libvirt aware of OVS Bridges:

  Create 3 files, one for each bridge, like this (ovsbr0.xml, ovsbr1.xml
  and ovsbr2.xml):

  --- ovsbr0.xml contents:
  <network>
   <name>ovsbr0</name>
   <forward mode='bridge'/>
   <bridge name='ovsbr0'/>
   <virtualport type='openvswitch'/>
  </network>
  ---

  --- ovsbr1.xml contents:
  <network>
   <name>ovsbr1</name>
   <forward mode='bridge'/>
   <bridge name='ovsbr1'/>
   <virtualport type='openvswitch'/>
  </network>
  ---

  --- ovsbr2.xml contents:
  <network>
   <name>ovsbr2</name>
   <forward mode='bridge'/>
   <bridge name='ovsbr2'/>
   <virtualport type='openvswitch'/>
  </network>
  ---

  Run:

  virsh net-define ovsbr0.xml
  virsh net-define ovsbr1.xml
  virsh net-define ovsbr2.xml

  virsh net-autostart ovsbr0
  virsh net-autostart ovsbr1
  virsh net-autostart ovsbr2

  virsh net-start ovsbr0
  virsh net-start ovsbr1
  virsh net-start ovsbr2

  - Creating the "guest-fw-1.domain.com" (Ubuntu 14.04.1 - Minimum
  Virtual Machine):

  1- VM Configuration file (network-only / cutted):

  ---
      <interface type='network'>
        <mac address='52:54:00:41:8c:3f'/>
        <source network='ovsbr0'/>
        <model type='virtio'/>
        <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x03' 
function='0x0'/>
      </interface>
      <interface type='network'>
        <mac address='52:54:00:27:b2:7d'/>
        <source network='ovsbr1'/>
        <model type='virtio'/>
        <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x09' 
function='0x0'/>
      </interface>
      <interface type='network'>
        <mac address='52:54:00:ff:35:5c'/>
        <source network='ovsbr2'/>
        <model type='virtio'/>
        <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x0a' 
function='0x0'/>
      </interface>
  ---

  2- Configure "guest-fw-1.domain.com" (the router / firewall guest)
  /etc/network/interfaces file like this:

  ---
  auto vlan10
  iface vlan10 inet static
          vlan_raw_device eth0
          address 200.2.1.106
          netmask 29
          gateway 200.2.1.105
          dns-nameserver 8.8.8.8

  auto vlan100
  iface vlan100 inet6 static
          vlan_raw_device eth1
          address 2001:129X:2XX:810X::2
          netmask 64
          dns-nameserver 2001:4860:4860::8844 2001:4860:4860::8888

  iface vlan100 inet static
          vlan_raw_device eth1
          address 192.168.4.1
          netmask 24

  auto vlan200
  iface vlan200 inet6 static
          vlan_raw_device eth2
          address 2001:1291:2de:10::1
          netmask 64

  iface vlan200 inet static
          vlan_raw_device eth2
          address 172.16.0.1
          netmask 24
  ---

  3- Enable radvd for your LANs:

  ---
  # SERVERS
  interface vlan100 {
          AdvSendAdvert on;
          MinRtrAdvInterval 3;
          MaxRtrAdvInterval 10;
          AdvLinkMTU 1500;
          AdvDefaultPreference high;
          prefix 2001:1291:200:850a::/64 {
                  DeprecatePrefix on;
                  AdvOnLink on;
                  AdvAutonomous on;
                  AdvRouterAddr on;
          };
          route ::/0 {
                  RemoveRoute on;
          };
          RDNSS 2001:4860:4860::8844 2001:4860:4860::8888 { };
          DNSSL domain.com.br { };
  };
  # DESKTOPS
  interface vlan200 {
          AdvSendAdvert on;
          MinRtrAdvInterval 3;
          MaxRtrAdvInterval 10;
          AdvLinkMTU 1500;
          AdvDefaultPreference high;
          prefix 2001:1291:2de:10::/64 {
                  DeprecatePrefix on;
                  AdvOnLink on;
                  AdvAutonomous on;
                  AdvRouterAddr on;
          };
          route ::/0 {
                  RemoveRoute on;
          };
          RDNSS 2001:4860:4860::8844 2001:4860:4860::8888 { };
          DNSSL igcorp.com.br { };
  };

  4- HIT TUE BUG!

   Go to `qemu-host-1.domain.com` and try to run "apt-get update", it
  will not work! Ping works... TCP connections doesn't.

   The gateway of `qemu-host-1.domain.com` (through ovsbr1p1), is the
  QEmu 2.0 Virtual Machine hosted on itself, the guest `guest-
  fw-1.domain.com`.

   (OPTIONAL STEP - replace OpenvSwitch by bridge-utils - does not fix
  it!)

   Possible workarounds: is this an OpenvSwitch BUG? Lets try it with
  `bridge-utils` instead...

   * Reconfigure your "qemu-host-1.domain.com" to use `bridge-utils`,
  instead of openvswitch-switch.

  ------------------------

  1- Preparing the host, now using `bridge-utils` instead of
  OpenvSwitch:

  - Reconfigure `qemu-host-1`s /etc/network/interfaces file with:

  ---
  auto br0
  iface br0 inet manual
          bridge_ports eth0
          bridge_maxwait 5
          bridge_fd 1
          bridge_stp on

  auto br1
  iface br1 inet manual
          bridge_ports eth1
          bridge_maxwait 5
          bridge_fd 1
          bridge_stp on

  auto vlan100
  iface vlan100 inet6 auto
          vlan_raw_device br1

  iface vlan100 inet static
          vlan_raw_device br1
          address 192.168.1.10
          netmask 24
          gateway 192.168.1.1

  auto br2
  iface br2 inet manual
          bridge_ports eth2
          bridge_maxwait 5
          bridge_fd 1
          bridge_stp on
  ---

  2- New VM Configuration file (network-only section / cutted), adjusted
  to make use bridges from `bridge-utils` package:

  ---
      <interface type='bridge'>
        <mac address='52:54:00:41:8c:3f'/>
        <source bridge='br0'/>
        <model type='virtio'/>
        <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x03' 
function='0x0'/>
      </interface>
      <interface type='bridge'>
        <mac address='52:54:00:27:b2:7d'/>
        <source bridge='br1'/>
        <model type='virtio'/>
        <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x09' 
function='0x0'/>
      </interface>
      <interface type='bridge'>
        <mac address='52:54:00:ff:35:5c'/>
        <source bridge='br2'/>
        <model type='virtio'/>
        <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x0a' 
function='0x0'/>
      </interface>

   virsh start guest-fw-1

  Now, both Xen Dom0 (`qemu-host-1`) and DomU (`guest-fw-1`) works as
  expected! You guys can see that the `guest-fw-1` is working on top of
  Xen, as-is, I mean, the changes happened only at the Hypervisor
  itself, problem solved (not for QEmu)!

  But, QEmu still have a problem, if I remove Xen, back to QEmu, then,
  the host `qemu-host-1` cannot browse the web again (`apt-get update`
  will not work if its gateway is a QEmu guest).

   ** Workaround #3: Untagging the VLANs with OpenvSwitch and its "fake
  bridges".

   The presented workaround have one big downside, while it allows us to
  keep using QEmu (and KSM), it requires a complete reconfiguration of
  the `guest-fw-1` interfaces! Also, for each VLAN tag, you'll need to
  create a fake bridge, a new VirtIO NIC for your guest (this might add
  a bit of overhead for your hypervisor as a whole, I'm not sure), plus
  a lot of extra work... If you need to add a new VLAN to your `guest-
  fw-1`, you'll need to reboot it, to add a new VirtIO NIC (this isn't
  the best way to build hypervisors - not the best practice), this is
  just a real workaround that allows you to keep using QEmu (and
  benefits from KSM, Libvirt and etc)...

   While, when replacing QEmu by Xen, you don't need to change a single
  line within the guest itself...

   So, this network problem lies within the QEmu Virtual Machine!

   Doing this workaround:

  1- Untagging the VLANs at OpenvSwitch, because QEmu can't handle it:

  ovs-vsctl add-br vlan10 ovsbr0 10
  ovs-vsctl add-br vlan100 ovsbr1 100
  ovs-vsctl add-br vlan200 ovsbr2 100

  2- Making Libvirt aware of OVS Fake Bridges:

  Create 3 files, one for each fake bridge, like this (vlan10.xml,
  vlan100.xml and vlan200.xml):

  --- vlan10.xml contents:
  <network>
   <name>vlan10</name>
   <forward mode='bridge'/>
   <bridge name='vlan10'/>
   <virtualport type='openvswitch'/>
  </network>
  ---

  --- vlan100.xml contents:
  <network>
   <name>vlan100</name>
   <forward mode='bridge'/>
   <bridge name='vlan100'/>
   <virtualport type='openvswitch'/>
  </network>
  ---

  --- vlan200.xml contents:
  <network>
   <name>vlan200</name>
   <forward mode='bridge'/>
   <bridge name='vlan200'/>
   <virtualport type='openvswitch'/>
  </network>
  ---

  Run:

  virsh net-define vlan10.xml
  virsh net-define vlan100.xml
  virsh net-define vlan200.xml

  virsh net-autostart vlan10
  virsh net-autostart vlan100
  virsh net-autostart vlan200

  virsh net-start vlan10
  virsh net-start vlan100
  virsh net-start vlan200

  3- Reconfigure the `guest-fw-1` to make use of new "fake bridges":

  ---
      <interface type='network'>
        <mac address='52:54:00:41:8c:3f'/>
        <source network='vlan10'/>
        <model type='virtio'/>
        <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x03' 
function='0x0'/>
      </interface>
      <interface type='network'>
        <mac address='52:54:00:27:b2:7d'/>
        <source network='vlan100'/>
        <model type='virtio'/>
        <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x09' 
function='0x0'/>
      </interface>
      <interface type='network'>
        <mac address='52:54:00:ff:35:5c'/>
        <source network='vlan200'/>
        <model type='virtio'/>
        <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x0a' 
function='0x0'/>
      </interface>
  ---

  4- Reconfigure `guest-gw-1`s /etc/network/interfaces file:

  ---
  auto eth0
  iface eth0 inet static
  #        vlan_raw_device eth0
          address 200.2.1.106
          netmask 29
          gateway 200.2.1.105
          dns-nameserver 8.8.8.8

  auto eth1
  iface eth1 inet6 static
  #        vlan_raw_device eth1
          address 2001:129X:2XX:810X::2
          netmask 64
          dns-nameserver 2001:4860:4860::8844 2001:4860:4860::8888

  iface eth1 inet static
  #        vlan_raw_device eth1
          address 192.168.4.1
          netmask 24

  auto eth2
  iface eth2 inet6 static
  #        vlan_raw_device eth2
          address 2001:1291:2de:10::1
          netmask 64

  iface eth2 inet static
  #        vlan_raw_device eth2
          address 172.16.0.1
          netmask 24

  5- Details: Working as expected when with QEmu but, without tagging
  the VLAN within the `guest-fw-1` itself.

  Conclusion:

  A QEmu guest router does not route tagged VLAN packages that are
  originated at its host, neighter from others guests hosted at the same
  hypervisor. Making it impossible to create a virtual network within a
  hypervisor.
