Subject: Is fallback vhost_net to qemu for live migrate available?
Date: Tue, 27 Aug 2013 11:32:31 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <521C1DCF.5090202@huawei.com> (raw)

Hi all

I am participating in a project which try to port vhost_net on Xen。

By change the memory copy and notify mechanism ,currently virtio-net 
with vhost_net could run on Xen with good performance。TCP receive 
throughput of single vnic from 2.77Gbps up to 6Gps。In VM receive 
side,I instead grant_copy with grant_map + memcopy,it efficiently 
reduce the cost of grant_table spin_lock of dom0,So the hole server TCP 
performance from 5.33Gps up to 9.5Gps。

Now I am consider the live migrate of vhost_net on Xen,vhost_net use 
vhost_log for live migrate on Kvm,but qemu on Xen havn't manage the 
hole memory of VM,So I am trying to fallback datapath from vhost_net to 
qemu when doing live migrate ,and fallback datapath from qemu to
vhost_net again after vm migrate to new server。

My question is:
	why didn't vhost_net do the same fallback operation for live migrate on 
KVM,but use vhost_log to mark the dirty page?
	Is there any mechanism fault for the idea of fallback datapath from 
vhost_net to qemu for live migrate?

any question about the detail of vhost_net on Xen is welcome。

Thanks
