Subject: If your networking is failing after updating to the latest git version of QEMU...
Date: Wed, 28 Sep 2022 10:27:39 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <a7da7e40-6f7b-79a4-709b-da0e71def650@redhat.com> (raw)


... it might have happened due to the removal of the "slirp" submodule from 
the git repository. For example if you see an error message like this:

  Parameter 'type' expects a netdev backend type

this likely means that the "user" mode backend type is not available in your 
binary anymore. To fix it, simply install "libslirp-devel" (or libslirp-dev 
or however it is called) from your OS distribution and recompile.
