Hi Michal First of all I want to let you know that I really appreciate your guidance. Second thing, after I successfully installed the kernel headers I was able to compile libvirt again, this time it let me start the Guest with queues='5' The Guest runs Kernel 3.9.7 but for some reason virtio_has_feature(vdev, VIRTIO_NET_F_MQ) returns false for multi queue. Could you please tell me what am I missing?

How odd.
The Kernel is the first thing I upgraded, here's the output of "uname -r": 3.10.9
I searched for IFF_MULTI_QUEUE in /usr/include/linux/if_tun.h and indeed it wasn't there. I believe Kernel 3.10 should support the Multi Queue, do I need to recompile it? maybe change its config file?
You shouldn't need to enable anything in the .config. However, you may need to update the linux-headers if you're building the libvirt on your own. There's a build-time check for IFF_MULTI_QUEUE. Michal
