Subject: [RFC PATCH 0/3] vfio/type1: Reduce vfio_iommu.lock contention
Date: Thu, 16 Jan 2020 11:17:49 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <157919849533.21002.4782774695733669879.stgit@gimli.home> (raw)

Hi Yan,

I wonder if this might reduce the lock contention you're seeing in the
vfio_dma_rw series.  These are only compile tested on my end, so I hope
they're not too broken to test.  Thanks,

Alex
