We've been talking about avoiding hardware passthrough entirely and
just backing a virtio-net backend driver by a dedicated VF in the

migration Just Work, and should give the same level of performance.
Does that involve this patch set? Or a different type of interface.
So long as the VF is exposed as a standalone PCI device, it's the same
interface. In fact you can take a random PCI card and expose it to a
guest this way; it doesn't have to be SR-IOV. Of course, with a
standard PCI card you won't get much sharing (a quad port NIC will be
good for four guests).
We'll need other changes in the network stack, but these are orthogonal
to SR-IOV.
