I run KVM VMs, built and managed using libvirt, through bonded
interfaces all the time.

I don't have a specific tutorial for this, but I cover all the steps to
build a mode=1 (Active/Passive) bond and then routing VMs through it as
part of a larger tutorial.

Here are the specific sections I think will help you;

https://alteeve.com/w/2-Node_Red_Hat_KVM_Cluster_Tutorial#Network

This section covers building 3 bonds, which you only need one of. In the
tutorial, you only need to care about the "IFN" bond and bridge (bond2 +
vbr2).

https://alteeve.com/w/2-Node_Red_Hat_KVM_Cluster_Tutorial#Provisioning_vm0001-dev

This covers all the steps used in the 'virt-install' call to provision
the VMs, which includes telling them to use the bridge.

Hope that helps.
