Hi: This series implement batch updating of used ring for TX. This help to reduce the cache contention on used ring. The idea is first split datacopy path from zerocopy, and do only batching for datacopy. This is because zercopy had already supported its own batching. TX PPS was increased 25.8% and Netperf TCP does not show obvious differences. The split of datapath will also be helpful for future implementation like in order completion. Please review. Thanks Jason Wang (9): vhost_net: drop unnecessary parameter vhost_net: introduce helper to initialize tx iov iter vhost_net: introduce vhost_exceeds_weight() vhost_net: introduce get_tx_bufs() vhost_net: introduce tx_can_batch() vhost_net: split out datacopy logic vhost_net: rename vhost_rx_signal_used() to vhost_net_signal_used() vhost_net: rename VHOST_RX_BATCH to VHOST_NET_BATCH vhost_net: batch update used ring for datacopy TX drivers/vhost/net.c | 249 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++--------------- 1 file changed, 179 insertions(+), 70 deletions(-) -- 2.7.4 _______________________________________________ Virtualization mailing list Virtualization@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization
