[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 3/3] examples/vhost: Support user space vhost zero copy

Ouyang Changchun changchun.ouyang at intel.com
Wed May 28 10:06:38 CEST 2014


Please ignore previous patch v1 and v2, only need this patch v3 for us vhost zero copy.

This patch supports user space vhost zero copy. It removes packets copying between host and guest in RX/TX.
It introduces an extra ring to store the detached mbufs. At initialization stage all mbufs will put into
this ring; when one guest starts, vhost gets the available buffer address allocated by guest for RX and
translates them into host space addresses, then attaches them to mbufs and puts the attached mbufs into
mempool.
Queue starting and DMA refilling will get mbufs from mempool and use them to set the DMA addresses.
 
For TX, it gets the buffer addresses of available packets to be transmitted from guest and translates
them to host space addresses, then attaches them to mbufs and puts them to TX queues.
After TX finishes, it pulls mbufs out from mempool, detaches them and puts them back into the extra ring.
