Hi, Here is the updated patch set for enabling vhost-user multiple queue. And I did proper and formal testing this time.
This patch set introduces 2 more vhost user messages: VHOST_USER_GET_QUEUE_NUM, for querying how many queues the backend supports, and VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ENABLE, for enabling/disabling a specific virt queue. Both of the two new messages are treated as vhost protocol extension, and that's why Michaels's patch "vhost-user: add protocol feature negotiation" is also included here. Patch 1-5 are all prepare works for actually enabling multiple queue. Patch 6 is the major patch for enabling multiple queue, which also tries to address two major concerns from Michael: no feedback from backend if it can't support # of requested queues, and all messages are sent N time. It also fixes a hidden bug. Patch 7 introduces the VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ENABLE message, to enable or disable a specific vring. v11: - typo fixes pointed out by Eric - define a dummy vhost_net_get_max_queues() when !CONFIG_VHOST_NET. - Per suggested by Jason Wang, invoke qmp_set_link() directly to remove duplicate code. v10: - typo fixes pointed out by Eric - [PATCH 6]: don't treat VHOST_USER_SET/GET_[PROTOCOL]_FEATURES as one time request, as the two feature bits need to be stored at per-device. v9: - Per suggested by Jason Wang, patch 5 introduces a new vhost backend method: vhost_backend_get_vq_index(). - Use qemu_find_net_clients_except() at net/vhost-user.c for gathering all related ncs so that we could register chr dev event handler once. Which is also suggested by Jason Wang. Thanks. --yliu --- Changchun Ouyang (2): vhost-user: add multiple queue support vhost-user: add a new message to disable/enable a specific virt queue.
