[libvirt] vhost-net on ethernet interface type

[Raja Sivaramakrishnan]

Hello,
    I would like to enable vhost-net on an interface of ethernet type. However,
this doesn't work, probably due to the following code in libvirt.

            if (actualType == VIR_DOMAIN_NET_TYPE_NETWORK ||
                actualType == VIR_DOMAIN_NET_TYPE_BRIDGE ||
                actualType == VIR_DOMAIN_NET_TYPE_DIRECT) {
                /* Attempt to use vhost-net mode for these types of
                   network device */

Can VIR_DOMAIN_NET_TYPE_ETHERNET also be included in the check 
above? Or is there some reason to disable vhost-net for this type?

Thanks,

Raja
