[PATCH 2/6] vhost_net: use vhost_add_used_and_signal_n() in vhost_zerocopy_signal_used()
...terrupt, this can saves us some unnecessary signal to
> guest. I will do some test.
Have done some test. I can see 2% - 3% increasing in both aggregate
transaction rate and per cpu transaction rate in TCP_RR and UDP_RR test.
I'm using ixgbe. W/o this patch, I can see more than 100 calls of
vhost_add_used_signal() in one vhost_zerocopy_signaled_used(). This is
because ixgbe (and other modern ethernet driver) tends to free old tx
skbs in a loop during tx interrupt, and vhost tend to batch the adding
used and signal in vhost_zerocopy_callback(). Switching to use
vhost_add_use_and_signal_n() means saving 10...

So? Does this help performance then?
