Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH 2/3] vhost: optimize dequeue for small packets
Date: Mon,  2 May 2016 17:46:17 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1462236378-7604-3-git-send-email-yuanhan.liu@linux.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1462236378-7604-1-git-send-email-yuanhan.liu@linux.intel.com>

Both current kernel virtio driver and DPDK virtio driver use at least
2 desc buffer for Tx: the first for storing the header, and the others
for storing the data.

Therefore, we could fetch the first data desc buf before the main loop,
and do the copy first before the check of "are we done yet?". This
could save one check for small packets, that just have one data desc
buffer and need one mbuf to store it.
