The patch only induces delay signaling unlimited time when there is no TX packet to transmit. I thought TX signaling only noticing guest to release the used buffers, anything else beside this? I tested rhel5u5 guest (2.6.18 kernel), it works fine. I checked the two commits log, I don't think this patch could cause any issue w/o these two patches. Also I found a big TX regression for old guest and new guest. For old guest, I am able to get almost 11Gb/s for 2K message size, but for the new guest kernel, I can only get 3.5 Gb/s with the patch and same host. I will dig it why. thanks Shirley -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
