XML for Qemu `-nic user,model=virtio-net-pci` Network

Question

How do I specify a network interface in libvirt XML that is equivalent to the qemu-system-* argument -nic user,model=virtio-net-pci. I have a variety of qemu machines (without KVM) that happily boot with this argument but I can't figure out how to specify it in a domain XML file.

I found this out by creating a domain with virt-install and --network=user. The resultant XML:

<interface type="user">
  <model type="virtio"/>
</interface>
