CentOS - Jan 2019 - 10Gbps network interfaces under KVM

Hi all,

 Anyone knows if exists some plan to support Intel 10Gbps nics like ?for example
82575, 82576, 82580 or 82598EB Ethernet controllers under KVM for virtual guest
like it does with e1000 driver?

Assuming you have a real 10Gbe NIC in the KVM virtual host system you can set
virtio as the NIC on the guest. It should act like a 10Gbe NIC assuming you are
running RHEL/CentOS as the guest or Windows with the virtio driver.
