Hi: This series tries to access virtqueue metadata through kernel virtual address instead of copy_user() friends since they had too much overheads like checks, spec barriers or even hardware feature toggling like SMAP. This is done through setup kernel address through direct mapping and co-opreate VM management with MMU notifiers. Test shows about 23% improvement on TX PPS. TCP_STREAM doesn't see obvious improvement. ThanksThanks this is queued for next. Did you want to rebase and repost packed ring support on top? IIUC it's on par with split ring with these patches.
Yes, it's on the way. Thanks
