In changeset 21653,

http://xenbits.xensource.com/xen-unstable.hg?rev/9da3abe88c90

         dev_type = sxp.name(dev_config)

should not be moved, otherwise, the checking "mac" paragraph

         if dev_type == 'vif':

             for x in dev_config:

                 if x != 'vif' and x[0] == 'mac':

                     if not re.match('^([0-9a-f]{2}:){5}[0-9a-f]{2}$', x[1], re.I):

                         log.error("Virtual network interface creation error - invalid MAC    Address entered: %s", x[1])

                         raise VmError("Cannot create a new virtual network interface - MAC address is not valid!");

will become of no use.


Just change the other three lines. Please refer to the original patch submitted as below.

Check "mac" address sooner in device_create function, before doing device_add.


In XendDomainInfo.py device_create function, when device type is "vif", it has a paragraph to check the validity of "mac" address. Before checking validity, device_add has been done. But after checking validity, if the mac address is invlid, it raises VmError and exits directly without doing clean work like removing the device item from config info. This will cause that the incorrect mac address is saved into VM Config file and VM fails to restart. If check "mac" validity before doing device_add, there will be no problem.
