Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 0/4] net/virtio: make virtqueue struct cache-friendly
Date: Mon, 15 Mar 2021 17:46:15 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210315164619.372575-1-maxime.coquelin@redhat.com> (raw)

This series optimizes the cache usage of virtqueue struct,
by making a "fake" mbuf being dynamically allocated in Rx
virtnet struct, by removing a useless virtuque pointer
into the virtnet structs and by moving a few fields
to pack holes.

With these 3 patches, the virtqueue struct size goes from
576 bytes (9 cachelines) to 248 bytes (4 cachelines).

Changes in v3:
==============
- Use rte_zmalloc_socket for fake mbuf alloc (David)
- Fix typos in commit messages
- Remove superfluous pointer check befor freeing (David)
- Fix checkpatch warnings

Changes in v2:
==============
- Rebase on latest main
- Improve error path in virtio_init_queue
- Fix various typos in commit messages

Maxime Coquelin (4):
  net/virtio: remove reference to virtqueue in vrings
  net/virtio: improve queue init error path
  net/virtio: allocate fake mbuf in Rx queue
  net/virtio: pack virtqueue struct
