Should I submit it as v5 of the patch ? I think I'm okay with the patch now. But I got one more ask for you :) In commit log, you stated: Virtio interfaces should also support setting of mtu, as in case of cloud it is expected to have the consistent mtu across the infrastructure that the dhcp server sends and not hardcoded to 1500(default). What would go wrong if the expectation is not achieved? I think you should have met some issue and you meant to fix it, right? If so, you should state that here. --yliu
