This patchset updates kvm repository with Anthony's virtio implementation along with rx performance improvements and guest reset handling. The original code was sent to qemu devel list 2 weeks ago. It contains support for network & block devices. Using the performance improvement I was able to do 800Mbps for rx/tx. The performance improvement are not implemented in a qemu standard code but the intention is to first let the community have decent performance with a merged virtio and afterwards do the polishing (there is dma support on the way for qemu). Enjoy [with the courtesy of Anthony & Rusty], Dor
