This is using eventfd as well.
Sorry, I meant irqfd.

I've tried using irqfd in userspace. It hurts performance quite a bit compared to doing an ioctl so I would suspect this too.

A last_used_idx or similar mechanism should help performance quite a bit on top of ioeventfd too.


Any idea why? While irqfd does quite a bit of extra locking, it shouldn't be that bad.
