From 0f4558ae91870692ce7f509c31c9d6ee721d8cdc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Marek=20Marczykowski-G=C3=B3recki?= Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2022 01:18:16 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "xen-netback: remove 'hotplug-status' once it has served its purpose" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit This reverts commit 1f2565780e9b7218cf92c7630130e82dcc0fe9c2. The 'hotplug-status' node should not be removed as long as the vif device remains configured. Otherwise the xen-netback would wait for re-running the network script even if it was already called (in case of the frontent re-connecting). But also, it _should_ be removed when the vif device is destroyed (for example when unbinding the driver) - otherwise hotplug script would not configure the device whenever it re-appear. Moving removal of the 'hotplug-status' node was a workaround for nothing calling network script after xen-netback module is reloaded. But when vif interface is re-created (on xen-netback unbind/bind for example), the script should be called, regardless of who does that - currently this case is not handled by the toolstack, and requires manual script call. Keeping hotplug-status=connected to skip the call is wrong and leads to not configured interface.
