I'll be using terminology as defined here:

http://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Nested_Virtualization_in_Xen#Introduction

What I meant is to have macvtaps for your L0 guest, which are then

passed thru to your L1 guest. There's no need for SRI-OV, no need for
bleeding edge HW, nothing. It's all done in software.
