Use `support-linux-bridge` to determine if Linux bridge is supported. If `support-linux-bridge` is `true`: Linux bridge is supported. `networkd` selects the network backend (OVS or bridge) based on `/etc/xensource/network.conf`. If `support-linux-bridge` is `false`: `networkd` will fail if detecting `bridge` in `/etc/xensource/network.conf`. Set `support-linux-bridge` to `false` in XS 9 as XS 9 does not support Linux bridge.

There is already a pre-check when upgrade from XS 8 to XS 9. Actually XS 9 will be reinstall when upgrade. So whatever the network backend is in XS 8, XS 9 will always choose OVS. |
