[Qemu-discuss] e1000e (intel 82574) emulation support

[Lukas Humbel]

Hi everybody,

I am interested in running the e1000e emulation. The git log shows that
support has recently been added. However, when executing
"qemu-system-x86_64 -net nic,model=help" I cannot see the e1000e. I
added "e1000e" to hw/pci/pci.c pci_nic_models and pci_nic_names array,
now it works. But I am wondering why it isn't included there by default?

I use a freshly compiled version from the current git version (commit id
a20fd901afd). The version string is: QEMU emulator version 2.7.50
(v2.7.0-961-ga20fd90-dirty).

Cheers,
Luki
