Unless I'm mistaken, e1000 is a conventional PCI device, with e1000e being the PCI Express equivalent. > Awe. My mistake.

Most VirtIO devices, including virtio-net, show up as either conventional PCI or PCI Express based on the slot they're plugged into, so if you have -device virtio-net-pci,bus=pci.0 it will show up as a conventional PCI device but if you have -device pcie-root-port,id=pci.1,bus=pcie.0 \ -device virtio-net-pci,bus=pci.1 instead it will show up as a PCI Express device. -- Andrea Bolognani / Red Hat / Virtualization
