vif-bridge: https://gist.github.com/26ce1eea5a1db0ae26a6#file_vif_bridge.sh It seems to be random, no pattern as far as we can tell. We've had guests lose one, then the other after a reboot. I haven't noticed if it has anything to do with Mac addresses. I'll check next time. Yes, we have seen reoccurrences after a reboot.

Could you show the contents of /etc/xen/scripts/vif-bridge? Is it random whether the 10.x.x.x or 216.x.x.x device goes down? Is it perhaps always the one with the higher or lower mac address? Once this affects a guest, and after a reboot, does it ever re-occur on the same guest? You showed install instruction, but not upgrade instructions. Do you just do a standard do-release-upgrade in the guest? Do you reboot afterward? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/728519 Title: Bridged Guests losing network connectivity under non-ubuntu Xen after upgrade from 8.10 to 10.04 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I actually custom-compiled the kernel in an attempt to mitigate the issue. I used 2.6.35-27-generic when the problem first appeared. Both virtual instances (tapped by vnet0 and vnet1) can always reach each other, as well as the host. As per your request, I will file a separate bug report. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/728519 Title: Bridged Guests losing network connectivity under non-ubuntu Xen after upgrade from 8.10 to 10.04 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks @Alexander. When vnet0 is the working device, then can vnet1 talk to the host at least, or not even that? It looks like you're using a custom kernel. Is there any chance of trying with a stock kernel? Actually I'm pretty sure your issue would be different from Jesse's.

[Bug 728519] Re: Bridged Guests losing network connectivity under non-ubuntu Xen after upgrade from 8.10 to 10.04
I'm not sure where the bug lies at this point, to be honest. There nothing in syslog before and after. There is nothing different on the host between upgraded and installed guests at all, and it appears this problem is occurring on KVM as well. Xen is not the issue. The problem not yet occurring on a newly installed guest doesn't necessarily mean the upgrade is what caused it since we can't manually trigger the problem. The 2.6.35-23-virtual kernel seems to be dropping network connections *much less* than the others, but not fixing it completely. This is likely why the newly installed guests haven't had this problem occur yet - they all get that kernel. Is there any information that I can provide that would help narrow down this issue? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/728519 Title: Bridged Guests losing network connectivity under non-ubuntu Xen after upgrade from 8.10 to 10.04 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 728519] Re: Bridged Guests losing network connectivity under non-ubuntu Xen after upgrade from 8.10 to 10.04
So if I understand correctly, this does not in fact appear to be a bug in the kernel? Sorry if I've asked this before, but is there definately nothing in the guest's syslog right before the connection is dropped? I'm afraid I don't know enough about xen setups to be able to guess at what might be different on the host when you install (vs update) a host. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/728519 Title: Bridged Guests losing network connectivity under non-ubuntu Xen after upgrade from 8.10 to 10.04 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 728519] Re: Bridged Guests losing network connectivity under non-ubuntu Xen after upgrade from 8.10 to 10.04
We just had a guest lose networking. 'rmmod xen_netfront' caused the other interface to go down, and I surmise removing the other module would fail because of the attached devices: # lsmod | grep xen xen_netfront 14919 0 xen_blkfront8991 2 Turns out this guest didn't have linux- image-2.6.35-23-virtual_2.6.35-23.41, but rather the default kernel installed after the upgrade. Installing this kernel removes those modules.

Thanks for filing this bug. Have you tried doing 'rmmod xen_netfront xen_blkfront' on an upgraded host? I'm not familiar enough with Xen to know which interfaces do what, but several of the interfaces on the host do have the same hwaddr. Do you know whether that can be related? In particular, peth1 and veth0.1 are both on xenbr1 and have the same hwaddr. And xenbr0 and xenbr1 have the same mac address presumably because they assumed those of peth0 and peth1, which are also the same. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Low => Medium ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/728519 Title: Bridged Guests losing network connectivity under non-ubuntu Xen after upgrade from 8.10 to 10.04 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
