Can you confirm that the request is to support SR-IOV live migration by using macvtap interfaces? If so, can you explain why not using plain OVS and prefer macvtap, as performances should be the same: any comparison performance report would help to prioritize this feature. Thanks!

Currently we don't require this feature. So I think it can be closed for now.
