Subject: [PATCH net-next V2 3/3] vhost: don't touch avail ring if in_order is negotiated
Date: Wed,  9 Jan 2019 16:05:30 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190109080530.18572-4-jasowang__35589.5842229531$1547021057$gmane$org@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20190109080530.18572-1-jasowang@redhat.com>

Device use descriptors table in order, so there's no need to read
index from available ring. This eliminate the cache contention on
available ring completely.

Virito-user + vhost_kernel + XDP_DROP on 2.60GHz Broadwell

            Before /After
SMAP on:  4.8Mpps   5.3Mpps(+10%)
SMAP off: 6.6Mpps   7.0Mpps(+6%)
