2016-03-11vhost_net: basic polling supportJason Wang1-0/+6
This patch tries to poll for new added tx buffer or socket receive queue for a while at the end of tx/rx processing. The maximum time spent on polling were specified through a new kind of vring ioctl. Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>
2015-06-01vhost: cross-endian support for legacy devicesGreg Kurz1-0/+14
This patch brings cross-endian support to vhost when used to implement legacy virtio devices. Since it is a relatively rare situation, the feature availability is controlled by a kernel config option (not set by default). The vq->is_le boolean field is added to cache the endianness to be used for ring accesses. It defaults to native endian, as expected by legacy virtio devices. When the ring gets active, we force little endian if the device is modern. When the ring is deactivated, we revert to the native endian default. If cross-endian was compiled in, a vq->user_be boolean field is added so that userspace may request a specific endianness. This field is used to override the default when activating the ring of a legacy device. It has no effect on modern devices.
