Nice, thanks for attaching perf numbers!

I see similar variation also with iperf-vsock, but higher absolute 
values, I think because of the different hardware or maybe because 
you're using nested VMs.

We have some regression (not because of this patch) in the h2g scenario, 
it would be interesting to investigate. (I'll try next week)
When I did some performance analysis h2g was slower, because the host 
has to split the packet according to the guest buffer (4K), while the 
guest can queue the whole buffer, but not as much:

checkpatch prints this warning, maybe you should fix the setup:

I was going to ask that, thanks for bringing it forward! :-)

So it was spin_lock_irqsave vs spin_lock_bh, right?

Could we continue to use spin_lock_bh()?

The scenario hasn't changed, we have workqueue/tasklet vs user context 
and looking at "Table of Minimum Requirements" in 
kernel-hacking/locking.rst, it seems to be okay to use it.

Perhaps we could add our helpers for queue_head, queue_tail, and 
dequeue.

What about a virtio_vsock_alloc_skb() where we call alloc_skb() and 
skb_reserve()?

Then we can reuse it in all the places where we allocate the skb.

Since we are changing the meaning, maybe we can rename this variable in 
total_len or skb_data_len, what do you think?

Why don't we call skb_reserve() here, but do it later in 
virtio_transport_rx_work()?

If we add virtio_vsock_alloc_skb(), I think we can reuse it also here.

Good job, I left some comments on things to be fixed, but I think we are

Next nice step to have (not in this patch/series) is to move packet 
queuing to the core and have all transports use skbuff (if they can).

Thanks,
Stefano
