network performance degradation in virtio_net in 4.12-rc

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi

I see severe network performance degradation with the kernels 4.12-rc1 and 
4.12-rc2 in the network virtio driver. Download rate drops down to about 
100kB/s.

I bisected it and it is caused by patch 
d85b758f72b05a774045545f24d70980e3e9aac4 ("virtio_net: fix support for 
small rings"). When I revert this patch, the problem goes away.

The host is Debian Jessie with kernel 4.4.62, the guest is Debian Sid with 
kernel 4.12-rc.
