Posting this again, hoping for a response.
c/s 15203 removed netloop from network bridge init scripts and assumes a default gateway route is defined. When one is not defined, networking does not work. Is it truly the intention of this c/s to require a gateway for xen, even though one is not required when we boot the linux kernel?

Subject: [Xen-devel] Is a gateway necessary
for Xen networking?
Using Xen unstable (changeset 15445) on X86_64 SLES10, we are no longer able to start networking without a default gateway.
After "xend" starts,
- ifconfig shows eth0, lo, and tmpbridge, and xen networking is incomplete
- "brctl show" reveals tmpbridge with no interfaces connected
If
we modify the network-bridge script to show
output:
#!/bin/bash
exec 2>/tmp/log
set -x
and restart xend, the
log file shows that xen-network-common.sh fails in a call to
getcfg:
+
preiftransfer
++ /sbin/getcfg -d
/etc/sysconfig/network/ -f ifcfg-
--
Error in getcfg (get_config.c,
303):
Give exactly one
argument
If we create a default route, the script does not error and a peth0 is created.
Since a gateway is not required for linux, should it be required for Xen?
