[RFC V5 PATCH 0/8] Packed ring layout for vhost
Hi all: This RFC implement packed ring layout. The code were tested with Tiwei's RFC V5 at https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/5/22/138. Some fixups and tweaks were needed on top of Tiwei's code to make it run for event index. Pktgen reports about 20% improvement on TX PPS when doing pktgen from guest to host. No ovbious improvement on RX PPS. We can do lots of optimizations on top but for simple

Hi all: This RFC implement packed ring layout. The code were tested with Tiwei's RFC V3 ahttps://lkml.org/lkml/2018/4/25/34. Some fixups and tweaks were needed on top of Tiwei's code to make it run for event index. Pktgen reports about 20% improvement on PPS (event index is off). More testing is ongoing. Notes for tester: - Start from this version, vhost need qemu co-operation to work

[PATCH net-next V2 0/8] Packed virtqueue support for vhost
Hi all: This series implements packed virtqueues. The code were tested with Tiwei's guest driver series at https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/cover/942297/ Pktgen test for both RX and TX does not show obvious difference with split virtqueues. The main bottleneck is the guest Linux driver, since it can not stress vhost for a 100% CPU utilization. A full TCP benchmark is ongoing. Will test

[PATCH V3 00/15] Packed virtqueue support for vhost
Hi all: This series implements packed virtqueues which were described at [1]. In this version we try to address the performance regression saw by V2. The root cause is packed virtqueue need more times of userspace memory accesssing which turns out to be very expensive. Thanks to the help of 7f466032dc9e ("vhost: access vq metadata through kernel virtual address"), such overhead cold be

[RFC PATCH V2 0/8] Packed ring for vhost
Hi all: This RFC implement packed ring layout. The code were tested with pmd implement by Jens at http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2018-January/089417.html. Minor change was needed for pmd codes to kick virtqueue since it assumes a busy polling backend. Test were done between localhost and guest. Testpmd (rxonly) in guest reports 2.4Mpps. Testpmd (txonly) repots about 2.1Mpps. Notes: The event

[PATCH RFC 00/13] vhost: format independence
We let the specifics of the ring format seep through to vhost API callers - mostly because there was only one format so it was hard to imagine what an independent API would look like. Now that there's an alternative in form of the packed ring, it's easier to see the issues, and fixing them is perhaps the cleanest way to add support for more formats. This patchset does this by indtroducing

[PATCH RFC v5 00/13] vhost: ring format independence
This adds infrastructure required for supporting multiple ring formats. The idea is as follows: we convert descriptors to an independent format first, and process that converting to iov later. Used ring is similar: we fetch into an independent struct first, convert that to IOV later. The point is that we have a tight loop that fetches descriptors, which is good for cache utilization. This will

[PATCH RFC v7 00/14] vhost: ring format independence
This intentionally leaves "fixup" changes separate - hopefully that is enough to fix vhost-net crashes reported here, but it helps me keep track of what changed. I will naturally squash them later when we are done. This adds infrastructure required for supporting multiple ring formats.

Below should be useful for some experiments Jason is doing. I thought I'd send it out for early review/feedback. Compiled-only at this point. event idx feature allows us to defer interrupts until a specific # of descriptors were used. Sometimes it might be useful to get an interrupt after a specific descriptor, regardless. This adds a descriptor flag for this, and an API to create an urgent
