[PATCH net-next v8 7/7] net: vhost: make busyloop_intr more accurate

From: <hidden>
Date: 2018-08-19 12:11:26
Subsystem: the rest, virtio host (vhost) · Maintainers: Linus Torvalds, "Michael S. Tsirkin", Jason Wang

From: Tonghao Zhang <redacted>

The patch uses vhost_has_work_pending() to check if
the specified handler is scheduled, because in the most case,
vhost_has_work() return true when other side handler is added
to worker list. Use the vhost_has_work_pending() insead of
vhost_has_work().

Topology:
[Host] ->linux bridge -> tap vhost-net ->[Guest]

TCP_STREAM (netperf):
* Without the patch:  38035.39 Mbps, 3.37 us mean latency
* With the patch:     38409.44 Mbps, 3.34 us mean latency
