This is tracking the upstream effort needed to deliver the feature request described below.

Vhost-kernel implementation of DPDK Virtio-user PMD does not implement the (struct virtio_user_backend_ops *)->set_config() callback.

Implementing it would enable to set the tap interface MAC address using the existing tap_set_mac() function.

Changing the MAC address could be tested with OVS as below:

ovs-vsctl set interface <interface> mac=<MAC address>
