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.
  vhost_net: basic tx virtqueue batched processing
