[PATCH 1/4] net/ixgbevf: unregister irq handler when other interrupts not allowed.

[PATCH 1/4] net/ixgbevf: unregister irq handler when other interrupts not allowed.

[xiangxia.m.yue]

From: Tonghao Zhang <zhangtonghao@didichuxing.com>

When we bind the ixgbe VF (e.g 82599 card) to igb_uio and enable the rx-interrupt,
there will be more than one epoll_wait on intr_handle.fd. One is in "eal-intr-thread"
thread, and the others are in the thread which call the "rte_epoll_wait". The problem
is that  sometiems "eal-intr-thread" thread will process the rx interrupt, and
rte_epoll_wait can’t get the event any more, and the packets may be lost.

We should unregister the status interrupt handler in "eal-intr-thread" thread
and the ixgbe is in the same case.

[PATCH 2/4] net/ixgbevf: set the inter-interrupt interval for EITR.

[xiangxia.m.yue]

From: Tonghao Zhang <zhangtonghao@didichuxing.com>

Set EITR interval as default. This patch can improve the performance
when we enable the rx-intrrupt to process the packets because we hope
rx-intrrupt reduce CPU.

[PATCH 3/4] net/ixgbevf: save IXGBE_VTEIMS to intr->mask for performance.

[xiangxia.m.yue]

From: Tonghao Zhang <zhangtonghao@didichuxing.com>

If dpdk APPs call the rte_eth_dev_rx_intr_enable or rte_eth_dev_rx_intr_disable
frequently, and ixgbe vf will read the IXGBE_VTEIMS register everytime. We can
optimize the driver function. The patch save the IXGBE_VTEIMS to mask to avoid
read frequently.

[PATCH 4/4] net/ixgbevf: add check for rte_intr_enable.

[xiangxia.m.yue]

From: Tonghao Zhang <zhangtonghao@didichuxing.com>

When we bind the ixgbevf to vfio and call the rte_eth_dev_rx_intr_enable
and rte_eth_dev_rx_intr_disable frequently, the interrupt setting
(msi_set_mask_bit) will take more CPU as show below. rte_intr_enable
call the ioctl to map the fd to interrupts frequently.

perf top:
5.45%  [kernel]   [k] msi_set_mask_bit

It is unnecessary to call the rte_intr_enable in ixgbe_dev_rx_queue_intr_enable.
because the fds has been mapped to interrupt and not unmapped in
ixgbe_dev_rx_queue_intr_disable.

This patch add checks for using VFIO.  With the patch, msi_set_mask_bit is not listed
in perl any more. Any suggestion will be welcome.
