 Hah, okay... Don't take it for too much. Anyway your word weighs much more than my one...

 You know... There are actually problems with irqfd. However i'm not sure whether they are result of
some bug or of poorly made vGIC CPU interface software emulation. I don't have hardware with working
vGICv3 here. With GICv2m everything is fine, but code path is quite different, and LPI != SPI.
 This is further overcomplicated by the fact that as soon as i start up the profiler, the problem
goes away. Looks like increased number of context switches have impact.
 Actually, the problem is very poor vhost-net throughput, which jumps up when i start the profiler
and goes back down when i stop it. Just to note...
 I'm off since now for a small vacation, will be back on monday or tuesday. See you guys!
