I did that on guest VM, using both qemu-kvm 0.14.1 and 1.0. (cat /sys/class/block/vdb/device/features) using qemu-kvm 0.14.1: 0010101101100000000000000000100000000000000000000000000000000000 using qemu-kvm 1.0: 0010101101100000000000000000110000000000000000000000000000000000 >From my understanding, both of them have the same virtio features.
