KVM IP autodiscovery not working with Windows interface names #12649

problem

Hello,

On 4.22 with KVM Cloudstack succesfully autodiscovers IPs in Linux guests which have the qemu-ga installed, however the same cannot be said about Windows.

virsh and cockpit will happily display the IPs, but I notice the interface names in Windows can contain multiple words, so it could be a parsing issue.

Example:
Linux entry which works:
eth0 mac ipv4 ip/cidr

Windows, broken:
Ethernet Instance 0 mac ipv4 ip/cidr

So it's "eth0" vs "Ethernet Instance 0", likely a parsing issue.

Thanks
