Actually it can't be specified with 'txmode' attribute on <driver> element.

<driver txmode='timer'/>

<driver txmode='iothread'/>

Comment 4 Jiri Denemark 2011-02-23 14:19:46 UTC
The corresponding RFE which requested this support is only in POST now, it will be included in the next libvirt package. Closing this as a dup of that RFE.
