This series implements virtio-scsi queue steering, which gives performance improvements of up to 50% (measured both with QEMU and tcm_vhost backends). The patches build on top of the new virtio APIs at http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.virtualization/18431; the new API simplifies the locking of the virtio-scsi driver nicely, thus it makes sense to require them as a prerequisite.

This series implements virtio-scsi queue steering, which gives performance improvements of up to 50% (measured both with QEMU and tcm_vhost backends). This version rebased on Rusty's virtio ring rework patches. We hope this can go into virtio-next together with the virtio ring rework pathes. V5: improving the grammar of 1/5 (Paolo) move the dropping of sg_elems to 'virtio-scsi: use

OK, so I've spent a few days benchmarking. Turns out 80% of virtio_add_buf cases are uni-directional (including the always-performance-sensitive networking code), and that gets no performance penalty (though tests with real networking would be appreciated!). I'm not reposting all the "convert driver to virtio_add_outbuf()" patches: just the scsi one which I didn't have
