Here are the results I am getting with a Cisco 10G VIC adapter.
All tests are from the guest to an external host.
virtio-net-limit-xmit-polling/base:
TCP_STREAM: 8089Mbps
TCP_MAERTS: 9334Mbps
virtio-net-limit-xmit-polling/v0
TCP_STREAM: 8004Mbps
TCP_MAERTS: 9338Mbps
virtio-net-limit-xmit-polling/v1
TCP_STREAM: 8028Mbps
TCP_MAERTS: 9339Mbps
virtio-net-limit-xmit-polling/v2
TCP_STREAM: 8045Mbps
TCP_MAERTS: 9337Mbps
For the TCP_STREAM tests I don¹t get consistent results.
Every run gives me slightly different results. But its always between
7900Mbps to 8100Mbps.
But I also see this with the base kernel so its not related to these
patches.
Thanks,
Roopa

Michael,
I am testing this too.
I have finished one round of testing. But am running it again just to
confirm.
This time I will see if I can collect some exit stats too. Will post results
sometime this weekend.
I am just doing TCP_STREAM and TCP_MAERTS from guest to remote host.
Thanks,
Roopa

OK, different people seem to test different trees. In the hope to get
everyone on the same page, I created several variants of this patch so
they can be compared. Whoever's interested, please check out the
following, and tell me how these compare:
I'm in the process of testing these patches. Base and v0 are complete
and v1 is near complete with v2 to follow. I'm testing with a variety
of TCP_RR and TCP_STREAM/TCP_MAERTS tests involving local guest-to-guest
tests and remote host-to-guest tests. I'll post the results in the next
day or two when the tests finish.
Thanks,
Tom

virtio-net-limit-xmit-polling/base - this is net-next baseline to test
against virtio-net-limit-xmit-polling/v0 - fixes checks on out of capacity
virtio-net-limit-xmit-polling/v1 - previous revision of the patch
this does xmit,free,xmit,2*free,free
virtio-net-limit-xmit-polling/v2 - new revision of the patch
this does free,xmit,2*free,free
There's also this on top:
virtio-net-limit-xmit-polling/v3 -> don't delay avail index update
I don't think it's important to test this one, yet
Userspace to use: event index work is not yet merged upstream
so the revision to use is still this:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mst/qemu-kvm.git
virtio-net-event-idx-v3
