[RFC PATCH 0/3] vfio/type1: Reduce vfio_iommu.lock contention

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

 



Hi Yan,

I wonder if this might reduce the lock contention you're seeing in the
vfio_dma_rw series.  These are only compile tested on my end, so I hope
they're not too broken to test.  Thanks,

Alex
