[RFC v9 27/27] virtio-blk: add EVENT_IDX support to dataplane

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

 



This patch adds support for the VIRTIO_RING_F_EVENT_IDX feature for
interrupt mitigation.  virtio-blk doesn't do anything fancy with it so
we may not see a performance improvement.  This patch will allow newer
guest kernels to run successfully.
