I'm curious what you mean by this. libvirt's virtual networks currently only support the standard linux bridge device. There is no code in libvirt to use openvswitch devices for libvirt's virtual networks. The openvswitch support in libvirt only applies to guest devices that use <interface type='bridge'>. >From your message, it sounds like there is a driver that that replaces the linux host bridge driver with something that emulates that driver, but is actually an openvswitch bridge on the backend.
