Public bug reported:

Hello, I saw on amd64 platform nova defaults to use cirrus as video
driver and windows virtual machine got a small resolution.

video driver virtio could allow a larger resolution. And looks like the
driver type cannot be set by user.

My question is why using cirrus as default and do we have plan to adopt
virtio? thank you.
