lguest never checked for pending interrupts when enabling interrupts, and things still worked. However, it makes a significant difference to TCP performance, so it's time we fixed it by introducing a pending_irq flag and checking it on irq_restore and irq_enable. These two routines are now too big to patch into the 8/10 bytes patch space, so we drop that code. Note: The high latency on interrupt delivery had a very curious effect: once everything else was optimized, networking without GSO was faster than networking with GSO, since more interrupts were sent and hence a greater chance of one getting through to the Guest! Note2: (Almost) Closing the same loophole for iret doesn't have any measurable effect, so I'm leaving that patch for the moment. Before: 1GB tcpblast Guest->Host: 30.7 seconds 1GB tcpblast Guest->Host (no GSO): 76.0 seconds After: 1GB tcpblast Guest->Host: 6.8 seconds 1GB tcpblast Guest->Host (no GSO): 27.8 seconds Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
