This series tries to add basic busy polling for vhost net. The idea is simple: at the end of tx/rx processing, busy polling for new tx added descriptor and rx receive socket for a while. The maximum number of time (in us) could be spent on busy polling was specified ioctl. Test A were done through: - 50 us as busy loop timeout - Netperf 2.6 - Two machines with back to back connected mlx4 - Guest
