[libvirt PATCH v2 0/2] Fix failure to find VF netdev names during virtual network start

[Laine Stump]

The first patch resolves https://bugzilla.redhat.com/2025432, the 2nd
simplifies lower level code in the same manner.

V1 is here: https://listman.redhat.com/archives/libvir-list/2021-December/msg00000.html

Change in V2: Rather than adding an extra bool to the arglist of
virPCIGetVirtualFunctionsFull() (what I did in V1), just switch to
sending the name of the netdev whose phys_port_id we want to match
(called physPortNetDevName) (which will always be non-NULL in the
cases where we want) rather than the phys_port_id itself (physPortID)
(which may or may not be NULL). This way we don't need an extra arg
(we can just check for physPortNetDevName != NULL), and the lower
level function can call virNetDevGetPhysPortID() as needed.

Also added a similar 2nd patch that pushes the call to
virNetDevGetPhysPortID() down even further, into
virPCIGetNetName(). This simplifies the callers, and concentrates all
calls to virNetDevGetPhysPortID() into a single function
(virPCIGetNetName(), duh).

Laine Stump (2):
  util: fix erroneous requirement for phys_port_id to get ifname of a VF
  util: call virNetDevGetPhysPortID() in less places
