After discussion on-list, we decided that although we may need to increase the buffer size again sometime in the future, due to memory usage concerns it is still best to just set the buffer size to 256k, and include a lot of verbiage explaining the choice (and pointing out the probable source of failure if it happens again) in the code and in the git log. (See the follow-up comments to the V12 patch listed above).
To that end, I just pushed this patch upstream: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2018-April/msg02635.html commit ce5aebeacd10a1c15cb3ee46a59c8b5ff235589e Author: Laine Stump <la...@laine.org> Date: Wed Apr 25 17:12:03 2018 -0400 nwfilter: increase pcap buffer size to be compatible with TPACKET_V3 I also pushed that to the v3.7-maint branch so that it will automatically go into the next maintenance release of libvirt 3.7 (used by Fedora 27), and would have done the same for v4.1-maint (which will be used by F28) but that branch hasn't been created yet. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1758037 Title: LTC Test- Ubuntu18.04: Starting the guest with network filter defined will fail with "cause is unknown".
