good news, everyone. ethervirtio seems to work now on google compute engine in both labs (tested by david) and 9front (tested by me). somebody on irc reported that it also works for vultr.com. the driver should work fine in any qemu.

 only the 386 kernel for labs and 9front were tested, but the 9front amd64 kernel should work fine too.


i really appreciate the feedback erik gave me, it helped a lot.

 although, i still don't know if the driver works in 9atom or not! it would be nice if somebody could test it in 9atom and report back.

as for gce, there's one last showstopper: the dhcp server is kind of nuts. so, ipconfig (maybe ip stack?) needs to be fixed. for posterity here is what the gce dhcp server gave us:

ipconfig: got ack from 10.240.0.1
ipconfig: lease=4294967295
ipconfig: ipaddr=10.240.189.103 ipmask=255.255.255.255
ipconfig: ipgw=10.240.0.1
ipconfig: dns=169.254.169.254
ipconfig: dns=10.240.0.1
ipconfig: ntp=169.254.169.254
ipconfig: server=169.254.169.254 sname=
