What is missing is: 1) documentation - might be worth including this onto the list of models, e.g. like this: diff --git i/docs/formatdomain.rst w/docs/formatdomain.rst index 27f83e254d..388c620221 100644 --- i/docs/formatdomain.rst +++ w/docs/formatdomain.rst @@ -5409,6 +5409,7 @@ Typical values for QEMU and KVM include: ne2k_isa i82551 i82557b i82559er ne2k_pci pcnet rtl8139 e1000 virtio. :since:`Since 5.2.0` , ``virtio-transitional`` and ``virtio-non-transitional`` values are supported. See `Virtio transitional devices`_ for more details. +:since:`Since 9.3.0` igb is also supported. Setting NIC driver-specific options ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ 2) QEMU capability, we have an arbitrary list of features that we query QEMU for. This is mostly so that we can check whether QEMU supports requested feature or not. And this new model is so new, that the minimum required QEMU version - 4.2.0 (grep QEMU_MIN_ src/qemu/qemu_capabilities.c) doesn't have it. This is not trivial though, and we'll need Peter's help to regenerate capabilities. IIUC, the IGB was introduced in QEMU commit of v7.2.0-2481-g3a977deebe but the latest capabilities data we have is from v7.2.0-2146-g2946e1af27, i.e. ~350 commits older. 3) A test case. Especially step 2) is going to be tricky. So let me suggest the following: after Peter kindly refreshes capabilities, I'll write missing patches and resend among with yours (keeping your authorship of the patch, of course). Does that work for you? Michal
