I suppose you will provide the libvirt patch only for what seems to be 
Cisco technology support. Now the slight differences in technology
that we seem to try to support here are reflected in the parameters that 
go into
the XML and end up in the netlink messages. Any way to consolidate that? I 
suppose
VM migration between different switch vendors' switch isn't going to be 
that
easy?
