[PATCH RFC v2 2/4] virtio_net: disable cb aggressively

2021-04-12 Thread Michael S. Tsirkin
There are currently two cases where we poll TX vq not in response to a callback: start xmit and rx napi. We currently do this with callbacks enabled which can cause extra interrupts from the card. Used not to be a big issue as we run with interrupts disabled but that is no longer the case, and

[PATCH RFC v2 4/4] virtio_net: move txq wakeups under tx q lock

2021-04-12 Thread Michael S. Tsirkin
We currently check num_free outside tx q lock which is unsafe: new packets can arrive meanwhile and there won't be space in the queue. Thus a spurious queue wakeup causing overhead and even packet drops. Move the check under the lock to fix that. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin ---

[PATCH RFC v2 1/4] virtio: fix up virtio_disable_cb

2021-04-12 Thread Michael S. Tsirkin
virtio_disable_cb is currently a nop for split ring with event index. This is because it used to be always called from a callback when we know device won't trigger more events until we update the index. However, now that we run with interrupts enabled a lot we also poll without a callback so that

2021-04-12 Thread Michael S. Tsirkin
It's unsafe to operate a vq from multiple threads. Unfortunately this is exactly what we do when invoking clean tx poll from rx napi. As a fix move everything that deals with the vq to under tx lock. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin --- drivers/net/virtio_net.c | 22 +- 1
