Feature proposal: Add page-per-vq flag to the 'driver' element of virtio devices

Hi, The page-per-vq flag is important for vdpa with vhost-user performance [1]. Currently there is no way in libvirt to set it in the xml page-per-vq except with qemu args, like so: <devices> <interface type='vhostuser'> <mac address='fa:16:3e:92:6d:79'/> <source type='unix' path='/var/lib/vhost_sockets/sock7f9a971a-cf3' mode='server'/> <model type='virtio'/> <driver queues='4' rx_queue_size='512' tx_queue_size='512'/> <alias name='net0'/> <address type='pci' domain='0x0000' bus='0x00' slot='0x03' function='0x0'/> </interface> </devices> <qemu:commandline> <qemu:arg value='-set'/> <qemu:arg value='device.net0.page-per-vq=on'/> </qemu:commandline> However, this is not an approach which can be used for hotplug devices, as qemu:commandline arguments cannot be used for them, and is therefore not suitable for production. We propose to add the flag to the ' driver' element of virtio devices, as this is an attribute related to the virtio transport [2]. This will enable configuring virtio devices with the page-per-vq flag without relying on qemu:commandline arguments. Are there any issues that would prevent this feature from being accepted?
