Can I just understand a bit more about what the meaning of this is.

Say my VM boots:
  a) BIOS
  b) Boot loader
  c) Linux
  d) Reboots
     (possibly a',b', different c')

When would I get that event?
When can libvirt know it can use it?

The event is sent every time we do feature negotiation for the virtio-net
device, so you'll get it during Linux boot and reboots.

In v6, I add a data field 'id' to the event to pass the device id.

Jens
