Bond with VLAN tagging does not consistently work for SR-IOV VFs inside a VM guest
Issue
- Guest bond over VFs with VLAN tagging does not work as expected after bond failover.
- Connectivity is lost to a guest VM using VFs with bonding and VLAN tagging when there is a bond failover.
-
An error from the ixgbe module is seen on the host when failover occurs:
ixgbe 0000:01:00.0 em1: VF 0 requested MACVLAN filter but is administratively denied
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6
- SR-IOV with Intel ixgbe
