virtio-net zero-copy

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

 



Greetings,

Could someone let me know if current virtio-net supports zero-copy? I
see some discussion here:
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.kvm.devel/28061/
(copyless virtio net thoughts) and it looks like the copyless
virtio-net is not supported by KVM yet. If this is true, then is there
any plan to add the zero copy to the virtio-net?

I use KVM in 10G network environment and found the CPU usage is
saturated when network traffic becomes heavy. The native Linux under
the same load only consumes less than 10% CPU.

Thanks in advance,
Raju
