qemu output: access denied by acl file qemu-system-ppc64: bridge helper failed Option description: -netdev bridge,id=id[,br=bridge][,helper=helper] Connect a host TAP network interface to a host bridge device. Use the network helper helper to configure the TAP interface and attach it to the bridge. The default network helper executable is /path/to/qemu-bridge-helper and the default bridge device is br0. Examples: #launch a QEMU instance with the default network helper to #connect a TAP device to bridge br0 qemu-system-i386 linux.img -netdev bridge,id=n1 -device virtio-net,netdev=n1 #launch a QEMU instance with the default network helper to #connect a TAP device to bridge qemubr0 qemu-system-i386 linux.img -netdev bridge,br=qemubr0,id=n1 -device virtio-net,netdev=n1 What is the acl file? What is the interface to qemu-bridge-helper?
