Hi: This series tries to implement basic tx batched processing. This is done by prefetching descriptor indices and update used ring in a batch. This intends to speed up used ring updating and improve the cache utilization. Test shows about ~22% improvement in tx pss.
Please review. Jason Wang (5): vhost: split out ring head fetching logic vhost: introduce helper to prefetch desc index vhost: introduce vhost_add_used_idx()
Please squash these new APIs into where they are used. This split-up just makes review harder for me as I can't figure out how the new APIs are used.
vhost_net: rename VHOST_RX_BATCH to VHOST_NET_BATCH
This is ok as a separate patch.
