Support for the new event idx feature: 1. When enabling interrupts, publish the current avail index value to the host to get interrupts on the next update. 2. Use the new avail_event feature to reduce the number of exits from the guest. Simple test with the simulator: [virtio]# time ./virtio_test spurious wakeus: 0x7 real 0m0.169s user 0m0.140s sys 0m0.019s [virtio]# time ./virtio_test --no-event-idx spurious wakeus: 0x11 real 0m0.649s user 0m0.295s sys 0m0.335s Signed-off-by: Michael S.
