Subject: [PATCH 2/6] virtio-balloon: speed up inflate/deflate process
The implementation of the current virtio-balloon is not very efficient,
Bellow is test result of time spends on inflating the balloon to 3GB of
a 4GB idle guest:
a. allocating pages (6.5%, 103ms)
b. sending PFNs to host (68.3%, 787ms)
c. address translation (6.1%, 96ms)
d. madvise (19%, 300ms)
It takes about 1577ms for the whole inflating process to complete. The
test shows that the bottle neck is the stage b and stage d.
If using a bitmap to send the page info instead of the PFNs, we can
reduce the overhead in stage b quite a lot. Furthermore, it's possible
to do the address translation and the madvise with a bulk of pages,
instead of the current page per page way, so the overhead of stage c
and stage d can also be reduced a lot.
This patch is the kernel side implementation which is intended to speed
up the inflating & deflating process by adding a new feature to the
virtio-balloon device. And now, inflating the balloon to 3GB of a 4GB
idle guest only takes 200ms, it's about 8 times as fast as before.
TODO: optimize stage a by allocating/freeing a chunk of pages instead
of a single page at a time.
