LSHW log

Virtual machines loosing network access randomly. What happens when issue is present:

 - Network device on guest machine is lost. It's impossible to access machine.
 - Virsh console available for connection. PING from affected guest is available but with massive packet loss (20% ~ 70%).
 - Networking restart from the guest does not resolve problem.
 - When virsh  editing and setting to: <cpu mode='host-passthrough'/> issue seems to be resolved (after reboot).

Such issue observed on SUPERMICRO server. LSHW report attached.
