This patch set enables vhost-user multiple queues.
Overview
========
It depends on some QEMU patches that, hopefully, will be merged soon.
Those qemu patches introduce some new vhost-user messages, for vhost-user
mq enabling negotiation. Here is the main negotiation steps (Qemu
as master, and DPDK vhost-user as slave):
- Master queries features by VHOST_USER_GET_FEATURES from slave
- Check if VHOST_USER_F_PROTOCOL_FEATURES exist. If not, mq is not
supported. (check patch 1 for why VHOST_USER_F_PROTOCOL_FEATURES
is introduced)
- Master then sends another command, VHOST_USER_GET_QUEUE_NUM, for
querying how many queues the slave supports.
Master will compare the result with the requested queue number.
Qemu exits if the former is smaller.
- Master then tries to initiate all queue pairs by sending some vhost
user commands, including VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_CALL, which will
trigger the slave to do related vring setup, such as vring allocation.
Till now, all necessary initiation and negotiation are done. And master
could send another message, VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ENABLE, to enable/disable
a specific queue dynamically later.
Patchset
========
Patch 1-7 are all prepare works for enabling mq; they are all atomic
changes, which is designed to not break anything.
Patch 8 acutally enables mq feature, by setting two key feature flags.
Patch 9-12 are for demostrating the mq feature.
Testing

Host side
----------
- # Start vhost-switch
sudo mount -t hugetlbfs nodev /mnt/huge
sudo modprobe uio
sudo insmod $RTE_SDK/$RTE_TARGET/kmod/igb_uio.ko
sudo $RTE_SDK/tools/dpdk_nic_bind.py --bind igb_uio 0000:08:00.0
sudo $RTE_SDK/examples/vhost/build/vhost-switch -c 0xf0 -n 4 \
--huge-dir /mnt/huge --socket-mem 2048,0 -- -p 1 --vm2vm 0 \
--dev-basename usvhost --rxq 2
# Above common generates a usvhost socket file at PWD. You could also
# specify "--stats 1" option to enable stats dumping.
- # start qemu
sudo sudo mount -t hugetlbfs nodev $HOME/hugetlbfs

Guest side
----------
modprobe uio
insmod $RTE_SDK/$RTE_TARGET/kmod/igb_uio.ko
echo 1024 > /sys/devices/system/node/node0/hugepages/hugepages-2048kB/nr_hugepages
./tools/dpdk_nic_bind.py --bind igb_uio 00:03.0
$RTE_SDK/$RTE_TARGET/app/testpmd -c 1f -n 4 -- --rxq=2 --txq=2 \
--nb-cores=4 -i --disable-hw-vlan --txqflags 0xf00
> set fwd mac
> start tx_first
After those setups, you then could use packet generator for packet tx/rx testing.
