Subject: [PATCH V3 2/6] vhost_net: use vhost_add_used_and_signal_n() in vhost_zerocopy_signal_used()
Date: Mon,  2 Sep 2013 16:40:57 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1378111261-14826-3-git-send-email-jasowang@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1378111261-14826-1-git-send-email-jasowang@redhat.com>

We tend to batch the used adding and signaling in vhost_zerocopy_callback()
which may result more than 100 used buffers to be updated in
vhost_zerocopy_signal_used() in some cases. So switch to use
vhost_add_used_and_signal_n() to avoid multiple calls to
vhost_add_used_and_signal(). Which means much less times of used index
updating and memory barriers.

2% performance improvement were seen on netperf TCP_RR test.
