Hi Daniel,
> For Juno the vif_driver option still exists & can be used. In the current master branch, there is no 'vif_driver' option for libvirt. It has been deleted by [1], and I can't find any patches to enable 'vif_driver' config on gerrit. Is there plan to get the 'vif_driver' config available before the Juno release?
