More evidence that the issue is on the guest OS side, not the libvirt side. I'm strongly inclined to close this bug at this point. Let me know if you disagree, otherwise I'll go ahead. Did you try using the virtio model? You didn't clarify whether this additional testing is still happening with rtl8139, which I wouldn't necessarily expect to work correctly for ppc64le. -- Andrea Bolognani <e...@kiyuko.org> Resistance is futile, you will be garbage collected.
