vhost-blk is an in-kernel virito-blk device accelerator. Due to lack of proper in-kernel AIO interface, this version converts guest's I/O request to bio and use submit_bio() to submit I/O directly. So this version any supports raw block device as guest's disk image, e.g. /dev/sda, /dev/ram0. We can...

Currently, vhost-net is the only consumer of vhost infrastructure. So vhost infrastructure and vhost-net driver are in a single module. Separating this as a vhost.ko module and a vhost-net.ko module makes it is easier to share code with other vhost drivers, e.g. vhost-blk.ko, tcm-vhost.ko.

Hi folks, [I am resending to fix the broken thread in the previous one.] This patchset adds vhost-blk support. vhost-blk is a in kernel virito-blk device accelerator. Compared to userspace virtio-blk implementation, vhost-blk gives about 5% to 15% performance improvement. Asias He (5): aio: Export symbols and struct kiocb_batch for in kernel aio usage eventfd: Export symbol eventfd_file_create...

Hi, Inspired by vhost-net implementation, I did initial prototype of vhost-blk to see if it provides any benefits over QEMU virtio-blk. I haven't handled all the error cases, fixed naming conventions etc., but the implementation is stable to play with. I tried not to deviate from vhost-net implementation where possible. NOTE: Only change I had to make to vhost core code...

Hi All, Here is the latest version of vhost-blk implementation. Major difference from my previous implementation is that, I now merge all contiguous requests (both read and write), before submitting them. This significantly improved IO performance. I am still collecting performance numbers, I will be posting in next few days. Comments ? Todo:...
