The alternative is to get a notification from the stack that the packet is done processing. Either an skb destructor in the kernel, or my new API that everyone is not rushing out to implement.

btw, my new api is


  io_submit(..., nr, ...): submit nr packets
  io_getevents(): complete nr packets

I don't think we even need that to end this debate. I'm convinced we have a bug somewhere. Even disabling TX mitigation, I see a ping latency of around 300ns whereas it's only 50ns on the host. This defies logic so I'm now looking to isolate why that is.

I'm down to 90us. Obviously, s/ns/us/g above. The exec.c changes were the big winner... I hate qemu sometimes.

I'm pretty confident I can get at least to Greg's numbers with some poking. I think I understand why he's doing better after reading his patches carefully but I also don't think it'll scale with many guests well... stay tuned.

But most importantly, we are darn near where vbus is with this patch wrt added packet latency and this is totally from userspace with no host kernel changes.

So no, userspace is not the issue.
