Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 00/15] vhost-net: preview
Date: Thu, 4 Feb 2010 14:41:49 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100204124148.GA22559@redhat.com> (raw)
Here's a patchset with vhost support for upstream qemu.
Note that irqchip/MSI is no longer required for vhost, but you should
not expect performance gains from vhost unless in-kernel irqchip is
enabled (which is not in upstream qemu now), and unless guest enables
MSI. A follow-up patchset against qemu-kvm will add irqchip support.
Only virtio-pci is currently supported: I'm interested in supporting
syborg/s390 as well, and tried to make APIs generic to make this
possible.
Also missing is packet socket backend: another team is working on this.
Michael S. Tsirkin (15):
exec: memory notifiers
kvm: move kvm_set_phys_mem around
kvm: move kvm to use memory notifiers
kvm: add API to set ioeventfd
notifier: event notifier implementation
virtio: add notifier support
virtio: add APIs for queue fields
virtio: add status change callback
virtio: move typedef to qemu-common
virtio-pci: fill in notifier support
tap: add interface to get device fd
vhost: vhost net support
tap: add vhost/vhostfd options
tap: add API to retrieve vhost net header
virtio-net: vhost net support
