[PATCH 0/3] virtio-net: 64 bit features, event index

["Michael S. Tsirkin" <mst@redhat.com>]

OK, here's a patch that implements the virtio spec update that I
sent earlier. It supercedes the PUBLISH_USED_IDX patches
I sent out earlier.

Support is added in both userspace and vhost-net.

I see nice performance improvements: e.g. from 12 to 18 Gbit/s host
to guest with netperf, but did not spend a lot of time testing
performance. I hope others will try this out and report.

Note: there are 2 new features, reducing the number
of interrupts (used_event) and of exits (avail_event).

If you see issues or are just curious, you can
turn them off separately. For example:

-global virtio-net-pci.avail_event=on -global
virtio-net-pci.used_event=on -global virtio-blk-pci.avail_event=off
-global virtio-blk-pci.used_event=off

Also, it's possible to try both vhost-net and virtio-net.
