From 0f4558ae91870692ce7f509c31c9d6ee721d8cdc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Marek Marczykowski-Górecki Date: Tue, 22 Feb 2022 01:18:16 +0100 Subject: Revert "xen-netback: remove 'hotplug-status' once it has served its purpose" MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 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.

The reasoning in the commit was wrong - the code expected to setup the watch even if 'hotplug-status' didn't exist. In fact, it relied on the watch being fired the first time - to check if maybe 'hotplug-status' is already set to 'connected'. Not registering a watch for non-existing path (which is the case if hotplug script hasn't been executed yet), made the backend not waiting for the hotplug script to execute. This in turns, made the netfront think the interface is fully operational, while in fact it was not (the vif interface on xen-netback side might not be configured yet). This was a workaround for 'hotplug-status' erroneously being removed. But since that is reverted now, the workaround is not necessary either.
