Hi,

I was doing a last minute regression test of the ext4 tree before
sending a pull request to Linus, which I do using gce-xfstests[1], and
I found that using networking was broken on GCE on linux-next.  I was
using next-20161209, and after bisecting things, I narrowed down the
commit which causing things to break to commit 449000102901:
"virtio-net: enable multiqueue by default".  Reverting this commit on
top of next-20161209 fixed the problem.

You can reproduce the problem for building the kernel for Google
Compute Engine --- I use a config such as this [2], and then try to
boot a kernel on a VM.  The way I do this involves booting a test
appliance and then kexec'ing into the kernel to be tested[3], using a
2cpu configuration.  (GCE machine type: n1-standard-2)

[2] https://git.kernel.org/cgit/fs/ext2/xfstests-bld.git/tree/kernel-configs/ext4-x86_64-config-4.9
[3] https://github.com/tytso/xfstests-bld/blob/master/Documentation/gce-xfstests.md

You can then take a look at serial console using a command such as
"gcloud compute instances get-serial-port-output <instance-name>", and
you will get something like this (see attached).  The important bit is
that the dhclient command is completely failing to be able to get a
response from the network, from which I deduce that apparently that
either networking send or receive or both seem to be badly affected by
the commit in question.

Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help you debug this
further.

Cheers,

						- Ted
