This patch is in response to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=643050 The existing libvirt support for the vhost-net backend to the virtio network driver happens automatically - if the vhost-net device is available, it is always enabled, otherwise the standard userland virtio backend is used. This patch makes it possible to force whether or not vhost-net is used with a bit of XML. Adding a <driver> element to the interface XML, eg: <interface type="network"> <model type="virtio"/> <driver name="vhost"/> will force use of vhost-net (if it's not available, the domain will fail to start). if driver name="qemu", vhost-net will not be used even if it is available. If there is no <driver name='xxx'/> in the config, libvirt will revert to the pre-existing automatic behavior - use vhost-net if it's available, and userland backend if vhost-net isn't available. |
