[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 3/4] virtio: use indirect ring elements

Fri Sep 4 22:58:27 CEST 2015
The virtio ring in QEMU/KVM is usually limited to 256 entries
and the normal way that virtio driver was queuing mbufs required
nsegs + 1 ring elements. By using the indirect ring element feature
if available, each packet will take only one ring slot even for
multi-segment packets.
