No Arch-based OS has network connectivity when running inside a VM
So I do a lot of work in VMs to test my AUR package of the Regolith Desktop Environment that I've brought to Arch. I was going to try and troubleshoot some stuff today and I booted up my pre-existing Manjaro VM to test some stuff. Well when I got in there, it showed my network connection, but I had no actual internet.
ping google.comwould just time out. I tried dhcpcd and it showed no errors. I restarted NetworkManager.service, no change.
systemctl status NetworkManager.serviceshowed no errors at all. I had internet connectivity in that same VM two days ago, and I changed nothing about the VM configuration whatsoever in the interim (I'm using libvirt w/ virt-manager). I was really confused, so I booted up an existing Pop OS VM using the same NAT. Internet worked perfectly fine.
Okay, so maybe that VM somehow got borked. I created a new one, and booted up the Manjaro iso. No internet (but again it showed the Wired Connection 1 as connected). Okay, so I created a new VM and booted up the vanilla Arch iso. No internet. I ran dhcpcd and then internet worked. But then after installing the system I had the same issue as on Manjaro. So I tried Endeavour. Same exact behavior. Tried Pop OS again to check my sanity, and sure enough internet was working. I have a single GPU passthrough VFIO Windows 10 VM, I booted it and internet connectivity worked.
Host is vanilla Arch of course (which is why I'm posting here).
/var/log/libvirt/qemu/manjaro.log: https://gist.github.com/gardotd426/fd3c … 11f3503c9a
I'm assuming it goes without saying that networking obviously works on the host perfectly fine.

The posted log is useless. Boot the installed arch VM and dump "sudo journalctl -b" as well as "ip a" & "ip r" and "find /etc/systemd -type l -exec test -f {} \; -print | awk -F'/' '{ printf ("%-40s | %s\n", $(NF-0), $(NF-1)) }' | sort -f"
