We meet similar issue for virito-net, and virtio-net solve this by always copy first 128bytes for big packets. See receive_big() I'm seeing, It is more sophisticated. IIUC, virtio-net allocates a sk_buff with 128 bytes of buffer, then copies the first 128 bytes, then adds the buffer used to receive the packet as a frag to the skb. Yes and the point is if the packet is smaller than 128 bytes the pages will be recycled. So it's avoid the overhead of allocation of a large buffer. I got it. Just a curiosity, why the threshold is 128 bytes? From its name (GOOD_COPY_LEN), I think it just a value that won't lose much performance, e.g the size two cachelines. Jason, Stefan, since I'm removing the patches to increase the buffers to 64 KiB and I'm adding a threshold for small packets, I would simplify this patch, removing the new buffer allocation and copying small packets into the buffers already queued (if there is a space). In this way, I should solve the issue of 1 byte packets. Do you think could be better? I think so.

Yes, but it's your choice whether optimization is worthwhile. If it increases the complexity of the code and doesn't result in a measurable improvement, then it's not worth it.

These buffers are preallocated by the guest with a fixed size (4 KB). The maximum amount of memory used by each socket should be controlled by the credit mechanism. The default credit available per-socket is 256 KB, but if we use only 1 byte per packet, the guest can queue up to 262144 of 4 KB buffers, using up to 1 GB of memory per-socket. In addition, the guest will continue to fill the vring with new 4 KB free buffers to avoid starvation of her sockets. This patch solves this issue copying the payload in a new buffer. Then it is queued in the per-socket list, and the 4KB buffer used by the host is freed. In this way, the memory used by each socket respects the credit available, and we still avoid starvation, paying the cost of an extra memory copy. When the buffer is completely full we do a "zero-copy", moving the buffer directly in the per-socket list. I wonder in the long run we should use generic socket accouting mechanism provided by kernel (e.g socket, skb, sndbuf, recvbug, truesize) instead of vsock specific thing to avoid duplicating efforts.

Yes, unix domain socket is one example that uses general skb and socket structure. And we probably need some kind of socket pair on host. Using socket can also simplify the unification with vhost-net which depends on the socket proto_ops to work. I admit it's a huge change probably, we can do it gradually.

Yes, unix domain socket is one example that uses general skb and socket structure. And we probably need some kind of socket pair on host. Using socket can also simplify the unification with vhost-net which depends on the socket proto_ops to work. I admit it's a huge change probably, we can do it gradually.

These buffers are preallocated by the guest with a fixed size (4 KB). The maximum amount of memory used by each socket should be controlled by the credit mechanism. The default credit available per-socket is 256 KB, but if we use only 1 byte per packet, the guest can queue up to 262144 of 4 KB buffers, using up to 1 GB of memory per-socket. In addition, the guest will continue to fill the vring with new 4 KB free buffers to avoid starvation of her sockets. This patch solves this issue copying the payload in a new buffer. Then it is queued in the per-socket list, and the 4KB buffer used by the host is freed. In this way, the memory used by each socket respects the credit available, and we still avoid starvation, paying the cost of an extra memory copy. When the buffer is completely full we do a "zero-copy", moving the buffer directly in the per-socket list.

[PATCH v2 1/8] vsock/virtio: limit the memory used per-socket
Since virtio-vsock was introduced, the buffers filled by the host and pushed to the guest using the vring, are directly queued in a per-socket list avoiding to copy it. These buffers are preallocated by the guest with a fixed size (4 KB). The maximum amount of memory used by each socket should be controlled by the credit mechanism. The default credit available per-socket is 256 KB, but if we use only 1 byte per packet, the guest can queue up to 262144 of 4 KB buffers, using up to 1 GB of memory per-socket. In addition, the guest will continue to fill the vring with new 4 KB free buffers to avoid starvation of other sockets. This patch solves this issue copying the payload in a new buffer. Then it is queued in the per-socket list, and the 4KB buffer used by the host is freed. In this way, the memory used by each socket respects the credit available, and we still avoid starvation, paying the cost of an extra memory copy. When the buffer is completely full we do a "zero-copy", moving the buffer directly in the per-socket list.
