Re: [dpdk-dev] 18.11.10 (LTS) patches review and test

[Pei Zhang <pezhang@redhat.com>]

Hello Kevin,

Testing with dpdk 18.11.10 from Red Hat looks good.

We cover below 15 scenarios and and all get PASS on RHEL8 testing:

(1)Guest with device assignment(PF) throughput testing(1G hugepage size): PASS
(2)Guest with device assignment(PF) throughput testing(2M hugepage size) : PASS
(3)Guest with device assignment(VF) throughput testing: PASS
(4)PVP (host dpdk testpmd as vswitch) 1Q: throughput testing: PASS
(5)PVP vhost-user 2Q throughput testing: PASS
(6)PVP vhost-user 1Q - cross numa node throughput testing: PASS
(7)Guest with vhost-user 2 queues throughput testing: PASS
(8)vhost-user reconnect with dpdk-client, qemu-server: qemu reconnect: PASS
(9)PVP 1Q live migration testing: PASS
(10)PVP 1Q cross numa node live migration testing: PASS
(11)Guest with ovs+dpdk+vhost-user 1Q live migration testing: PASS
(12)Guest with ovs+dpdk+vhost-user 1Q live migration testing (2M): PASS
(13)Guest with ovs+dpdk+vhost-user 2Q live migration testing: PASS
(14)Host PF + DPDK testing: PASS
(15)Host VF + DPDK testing: PASS

    vfio: map contiguous areas in one go
    
    [ upstream commit d1c7c0cdf7bac5eb40d3a2a690453aefeee5887b ]
    
    Currently, when we are creating DMA mappings for memory that's
    either external or is backed by hugepages in IOVA as PA mode, we
    assume that each page is necessarily discontiguous. This may not
    actually be the case, especially for external memory, where the
    user is able to create their own IOVA table and make it
    contiguous. This is a problem because VFIO has a limited number
    of DMA mappings, and it does not appear to concatenate them and
    treats each mapping as separate, even when they cover adjacent
    areas.
    
    Fix this so that we always map contiguous memory in a single
    chunk, as opposed to mapping each segment separately.
