I've been running netperf tests across 10GbE adapters with Qemu 0.12.1.2, RHEL5.4 guests and 2.6.32 kernel (from kvm.git) guests. I instrumented Qemu to print out some network statistics. It appears that at some point in the netperf test the receiving guest ends up having the 10GbE device "receive_disabled" variable in its VLANClientState structure stuck at 1. From looking at the code it appears that the virtio-net driver in the guest should cause qemu_flush_queued_packets in net.c to eventually run and clear the "receive_disabled" variable but it's not happening. I don't seem to have these issues when I have a lot of debug settings active in the guest kernel which results in very low/poor network performance - maybe some kind of race condition?
