A performance test between pktgen (pktgen_sample03_burst_single_flow.sh) and DPDK vhost (testpmd/rxonly/vhost-PMD) has been done, I saw ~30% performance gain in packed ring in this case.Thanks a lot, this is very exciting! Dave, given the holiday, attempts to wrap up the 1.1 spec and the patchset size I would very much appreciate a bit more time for review. Say until Nov 28?To make this patch set work with below patch set for vhost, some hacks are needed to set the _F_NEXT flag in indirect descriptors (this should be fixed in vhost): https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/7/3/33Could you pls clarify - do you mean it doesn't yet work with vhost because of a vhost bug, and to test it with the linked patches you had to hack in _F_NEXT? Because I do not see _F_NEXT in indirect descriptors in this patch (which is fine). Or did I miss it?You didn't miss anything. :) I think it's a small bug in vhost, which Jason may fix very quickly, so I didn't post it. Below is the hack I used:
Good catch. I didn't notice the subtle difference since split ring requires for it.
Let me fix it in next version. Thanks.
