[PATCH 6/6] vhost_net: use RCU callbacks instead of synchronize_rcu()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently vhost_net_release() uses synchronize_rcu() to synchronize
freeing with vhost_zerocopy_callback(). However synchronize_rcu()
is quite costly operation. It take more than 10 seconds
to shutdown qemu launched with couple net devices like this:
	-netdev tap,id=tap0,..,vhost=on,queues=80
because we end up calling synchronize_rcu() netdev_count*queues times.

Free vhost net structures in rcu callback instead of using
synchronize_rcu() to fix the problem.
