Subject: [PATCH] net: netvsc: Increase default VMBus channel from 8 to 16
Date: Mon,  5 Aug 2024 22:55:51 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1722923751-27296-1-git-send-email-ernis@linux.microsoft.com> (raw)

Increase default VMBus channels in Linux netvsc from 8 to 16
to align with Azure Windows VM and improve networking throughput.

Set channels to 16 for VMs with more than 16 vCPUs;
otherwise, channels depend on VM's vCPU count.

Performance tests showed significant improvement in throughput:
- 0.54% for 16 vCPUs
- 1.51% for 32 vCPUs
- 0.72% for 48 vCPUs
- 5.57% for 64 vCPUs
- 9.14% for 96 vCPUs
