Can you still reproduce this issue with the latest version of QEMU
(currently v2.8), or could we close this ticket nowadays?

Title:
Problem with Linux Kernel Traffic Control
Status in QEMU:
Incomplete
Bug description:
Hi,
The last main versions of QEMU (0.14.1, 0.15 and 1.0) have an important
problem when running on a Linux distribution which running itself a Traffic
Control (TC) instance.
Indeed, when TC is configured with a Token Bucket Filter (TBF) with a
particular rate, the effective rate is very slower than the desired one.
For instance, lets consider the following configuration :
# tc qdisc add dev eth0 root tbf rate 20mbit burst 20k latency 50ms
The effective rate will be about 100kbit/s ! (verified with iperf)
I've encountered this problem on versions 0.14.1, 0.15 and 1.0 but not with
the 0.14.0...
In the 0.14.0, we have a rate of 19.2 mbit/s which is quiet normal.
I've done the experimentation on several hosts :
- Debian 32bit core i7, 4GB RAM
- Debian 64bit core i7, 8GB RAM
- 3 different high performance servers : Ubuntu 64 bits, 48 AMD Opteron,
128GB of RAM
The problem is always the same... The problem is also seen with a
Class Based Queuing (CBQ) in TC.
Thanks
