Hello,

For KVM : What are the OVS <-> VM interface options (besides the default virtio/vhost-net) currently available in the OVS master git tree (or likely to be ready for the 2.4.0 release) ? If any of them are still under development/review kindly point me to the same.

Do any of these interface options also require the upstream qemu/libvirt to be modified (perhaps the associated changes are still pending/in-review).

'had seen references (in the experimental 01.org versions) to : vhost-user, IVYSHMEM etc. as possible interface options. But it's unclear what's in/going to be in upstream OVS.  Any pointers would be appreciated !

Thanks
Vinod
