I have changed my VM domain XML file to:
<interface type='vhostuser'>
<mac address='52:54:00:e0:07:94'/>
<source type='unix' path='/usr/local/var/run/openvswitch/vhost-user2' mode='client'/>
<model type='virtio'/>
<driver name='vhost' queues='6'>
<host csum='on' gso='on' tso4='on' tso6='on' ecn='on' ufo='on' mrg_rxbuf='on'/>
<guest csum='on' tso4='on' tso6='on' ecn='on' ufo='on'/>
</driver>
<address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x03' function='0x0'/>
</interface>
Still, I get the same error. I want to get TSO feature in this DPDK vhost user port. Unable to enable it.

You need to enable those in domain XML:

Oh¸ it's way better to post this as a text rather than image. Some of us
use text clients to read e-mails.
