[RFC PATCH net-next 05/12] vhost_net: batch update used ring for datacopy TX

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

 



Like commit e2b3b35eb989 ("vhost_net: batch used ring update in rx"),
this patches implements batch used ring update for datacopy TX
(zerocopy has already done some kind of batching).

Testpmd transmission from guest to ixgbe via XDP_REDIRECT shows about
15% improvement from 2.8Mpps to 3.2Mpps.
