Shall I consider this as an ack for kvm part?

For everything except 18/18. For that I still want to see numbers. But
18/18 is pretty independent from the reset of the series so it should
not stop the reset from going in.

Yes. agreed.
I am going to evaluate patch 18 separately and come with results for
that. Now we can consider only 1-17 patches.


Gleb,

32 core machine with HT off 32 vcpu guests.
base = 3.11-rc + patch 1 -17 pvspinlock_v11
patched = base + patch 18

dbench (Throughput in MB/sec higher is better)
