Issue
What were you trying to do that didn't work?
Use an autostarted VM after the Leapp upgrade.
Please provide the package NVR for which bug is seen:
libvirt-8.0.0-23.module+el8.10.0+21023+5962ee04
leapp-upgrade-el8toel9-0.19.0-9.el8
How reproducible:
100%
Steps to reproduce
On a recent 8.10 installation, create a VM with an pci hostdev and attached to the default NAT network
Mark the VM as autostart, reboot host and confirm it's autostarted
Run the leapp upgrade
Expected results
After the final reboot, when I log in the VM is running
Actual results
The VM is not running. The log complains about connection issues with virtnetworkd-sock which is weird because 8.10 has the monolithic libvirtd daemon and should run also libvirtd monolithically on the target 9.4.
After starting the virtnetworkd manually the VM can start.
Additional info:
it was found when upgrading 8.10->9.4; it reproduces when upgrading 8.10 -> 9.3 with libvirt-9.5.0-7.el9_3.s390x
it doesn't reproduce when upgrading 8.9 -> 9.3
