Hi all:
This series is an update version of multiqueue virtio-net driver based on
Krishna Kumar's work to let virtio-net use multiple rx/tx queues to do the
packets reception and transmission. Please review and comments.
Changes from v5:
- Align the implementation with the RFC spec update v4
- Switch the mode between single mode and multiqueue mode without reset
- Remove the 256 limitation of queues
- Use helpers to do the mapping between virtqueues and tx/rx queues
- Use commbined channels instead of separated rx/tx queus when do the queue
number configuartion
- Other coding style comments from Michael
Reference:
- A protype implementation of qemu-kvm support could by found in
git://github.com/jasowang/qemu-kvm-mq.git
- V5 could be found at http://lwn.net/Articles/505388/
- V4 could be found at https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/6/25/120
- V2 could be found at http://lwn.net/Articles/467283/

Perf Numbers:
- Pktgen test shows the receiving capability of the multiqueue virtio-net were
dramatically improved.
- Netperf result shows latency were greately improved according to the test
result.
I suppose it is technically correct to say that latency was improved,
but usually for aggregate request/response tests I tend to talk about
the aggregate transactions per second.
Do you have a hypothesis as to why the improvement dropped going to 20
concurrent sessions from 10?

Netperf Local VM to VM test:
- VM1 and its vcpu/vhost thread in numa node 0
- VM2 and its vcpu/vhost thread in numa node 1
- a script is used to lauch the netperf with demo mode and do the postprocessing
to measure the aggreagte result with the help of timestamp
- average of 3 runs
