multiple queue virtio-net: flow steering through host/guest cooperation Hello all: This is a rough series adds the guest/host cooperation of flow steering support based on Krish Kumar's multiple queue virtio-net driver patch 3/3 (http://lwn.net/Articles/467283/). This idea is simple, the backend pass the rxhash to the guest and guest would tell the backend the hash to queue mapping when

We used to queue tx packets in sk_receive_queue, this is less efficient since it requires spinlocks to synchronize between producer and consumer. This patch tries to address this by: - introduce a new mode which will be only enabled with IFF_TX_ARRAY set and switch from sk_receive_queue to a fixed size of skb array with 256 entries in this mode. - introduce a new proto_ops peek_len which was

Hi all: This series tries to switch to use skb array in tun. This is used to eliminate the spinlock contention between producer and consumer. The conversion was straightforward: just introdce a tx skb array and use it instead of sk_receive_queue. A minor issue is to keep the tx_queue_len behaviour, since tun used to use it for the length of sk_receive_queue. This is done through: - add the

Hi all: This series tries to batch submitting packets to underlayer socket through msg_control during sendmsg(). This is done by: 1) Doing userspace copy inside vhost_net 2) Build XDP buff 3) Batch at most 64 (VHOST_NET_BATCH) XDP buffs and submit them once through msg_control during sendmsg(). 4) Underlayer sockets can use XDP buffs directly when XDP is enalbed, or build skb based on XDP

The virtio net protocol supports UFO but does not provide for passing a fragment ID for fragmentation of IPv6 packets. We used to generate a fragment ID wherever such a packet was fragmented, but currently we always use ID=0! Ben.

Hi: This series tries to implement tx batching support for vhost. This was done by using MSG_MORE as a hint for under layer socket. The backend (e.g tap) can then batch the packets temporarily in a list and submit it all once the number of bacthed exceeds a limitation. Tests shows obvious improvement on guest pktgen over over mlx4(noqueue) on host: Mpps -+%
