This patch improves the guest receive and transmit performance.
On the handle_tx side, we poll the sock receive queue at the
same time. handle_rx do that in the same way.
We set the poll-us=100us and use the iperf3 to test
its bandwidth, use the netperf to test throughput and mean
latency. When running the tests, the vhost-net kthread of
that VM, is alway 100% CPU. The commands are shown as below.
iperf3 -s -D
iperf3 -c IP -i 1 -P 1 -t 20 -M 1400
or
netserver
netperf -H IP -t TCP_RR -l 20 -- -O "THROUGHPUT,MEAN_LATENCY"
host -> guest:
iperf3:
* With the patch: 27.0 Gbits/sec
* Without the patch: 14.4 Gbits/sec
netperf (TCP_RR):
* With the patch: 48039.56 trans/s, 20.64us mean latency
* Without the patch: 46027.07 trans/s, 21.58us mean latency
This patch also improves the guest transmit performance.
guest -> host:
iperf3:
* With the patch: 27.2 Gbits/sec
* Without the patch: 24.4 Gbits/sec
netperf (TCP_RR):
* With the patch: 47963.25 trans/s, 20.71us mean latency
* Without the patch: 45796.70 trans/s, 21.68us mean latency
