VM can't autostart after Leapp upgrade

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 libvirt-8.0.0-22.module+el8.9.0+19544+b3045133, leapp-upgrade-el8toel9-0.19.0-1.el8 # systemctl status virtnetworkd ○ virtnetworkd.service - libvirt network daemon Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/virtnetworkd.service; disabled; preset: disabled) Active: inactive (dead) TriggeredBy: ○ virtnetworkd-ro.socket ○ virtnetworkd-admin.socket ○ virtnetworkd.socket Docs: man:virtnetworkd(8) https://libvirt.org/ journalctl -u virtqemud: 2032]: Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/virtnetworkd-sock': No such file or directory 2032]: Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/virtnetworkd-sock': No such file or directory 2032]: Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/virtnetworkd-sock': No such file or directory 2032]: Unable to release network device '<null>' 2032]: internal error: Failed to autostart VM 'rhel9': Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/virtnetworkd-sock': No s> 2032]: Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/virtnetworkd-sock': No such file or directory 2032]: Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/virtnetworkd-sock': No such file or directory 2032]: Failed to connect socket to '/var/run/libvirt/virtnetworkd-sock': No such file or directory 2032]: Unable to release network device '<null>'
