Public bug reported:

*On master branch.*

I'm working on switching the Linux Bridge plugin in Neutron to return
vif_type='tap' to Nova so we can avoid the race condition of Nova and
the Neutron agent trying to create the network bridge and conditional
logic guessing whether or not the agent should try to add a given port
to a bridge.[1]


However, Nova can't seem to boot instances with that vif_type with errors like the following:

libvirtError: internal error: process exited while connecting to
monitor: 2017-03-22T16:37:48.246587Z qemu-system-x86_64: -netdev
tap,ifname=tap2b1add98-31,script=,id=hostnet0: could not open
/dev/net/tun: Operation not permitted

Here is the full gate run for that error above:

I see https://review.openstack.org/#/c/448203/ was supposed to fix it, but it didn't seem to work even though 'script=' is visible in the qemu call.
