Subject: [Qemu-devel] high-level view of packet processing for virtio NIC?
Date: Tue, 23 Jul 2019 10:18:01 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <c6d83f1f-50e2-60e1-38d7-4e622ac71a8c@windriver.com> (raw)
Hi,
I'm looking for information on what the qemu architecture looks like for
processing virtio network packets in a two-vCPU guest.
It looks like there's an IO thread doing a decent fraction of the work,
separate from the vCPU threads--is that correct? There's no disk
involved in this case, purely network packet processing.
Chris
