similar to: [PATCH] vhost-blk: Add vhost-blk support v6

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 add file based image support to vhost-blk once we have in-kernel AIO interface. There are

Hi Vitaly, Thank you for the patch!

It does things slightly differently: more of the virtio-blk device model is handled by the vhost-user device (e.g. config space). That might be necessary to implement virtio_blk_config.writeback properly. > +#define VHOST_BLK_SET_BACKEND

This patch makes vhost_scsi_flush() wait for all the pending requests issued before the flush operation to be finished. Changes in v4: - Introduce vhost_scsi_inflight - Drop array to track flush Changes in v3: - Rebase - Drop 'tcm_vhost: Wait for pending requests in vhost_scsi_clear_endpoint()' in this series, we already did that in 'tcm_vhost: Use vq->private_data to indicate

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: - Address hch's comments on annontations -

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 is to increase

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.
