Allocating 64K always even for small packet is kind of waste and stress for guest memory. Virito-net try to avoid this by inventing the merge able rx buffer which allows big packet to be scattered in into different buffers. We can reuse this idea or revisit the idea of using virtio-net/vhost-net as a transport of vsock. >>>> >>>> What interesting is the performance is still behind vhost-net. >>>> >>>> Thanks >>>> >>>>> By the way, I send to 64K in application once, and I don't use >>>>> sg_init_one and rewrite function to packet sg list because pkt_len >>>>> include multiple pages. >>>>> >>>>> Thanks, >>>>> Yiwen. >>> >>> Btw, if you're using vsock for transferring large files, maybe it's more efficient to implement sendpage() for vsock to allow sendfile()/splice() work. >>> >>> Thanks >>> >> I can't agree more. >> >> why vhost_vsock is still behind vhost_net? >> Because I use sendfile() to test performance at first, and then >> I found vsock don't implement sendpage() and cause the bandwidth >> can't be increased.
