QEMU/KVM, virt-manager - Unable to complete install: error creating macvtap interface macvtap0@eno1...
I am trying to create a virtual machine with QEMU/KVM using virt-manager. I am using gentoo linux with kernel 4.12.0-rc7 mainline. Using a virtual network interface at all causes the following error.
Unable to complete install: 'error creating macvtap interface macvtap0@eno1 (52:54:00:1a:e1:3b): Operation not supported'
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/asyncjob.py", line 88, in cb_wrapper
callback(asyncjob, *args, **kwargs)
File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtManager/create.py", line 2288, in _do_async_install
guest.start_install(meter=meter)
File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtinst/guest.py", line 461, in start_install
doboot, transient)
File "/usr/share/virt-manager/virtinst/guest.py", line 396, in _create_guest
self.domain = self.conn.createXML(install_xml or final_xml, 0)
File "/usr/lib64/python2.7/site-packages/libvirt.py", line 3591, in createXML
if ret is None:raise libvirtError('virDomainCreateXML() failed', conn=self)
libvirtError: error creating macvtap interface macvtap0@eno1 (52:54:00:1a:e1:3b): Operation not supported
The settings for the network interface are:
- Network Source: Host device eno1: macvtap,
- Source mode: Bridge,
- Device model: virtio,
- Virtual port: not set
eno1 is the name of my ethernet device.
Changing settings does not seem to help much, other than completely removing the network device which leads to a different, unrelated error, which I'm not sure if I will create a new post for.
I think that the error would be caused either by CONFIG_MACTVAP not being enabled in the kernel, which was the issue i was having before.
So, I enabled this and recompiled the kernel, but the setting was not to be found in menuconfig and I had to add it manually to .config (not the best idea, but the kernel accepted it as valid.) I do not think that mactvap is a kernel module so if it is I do not know what it what it is called as "mactvap" is not a module, and I set CONFIG_MACTVAP to y anyway.
