[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v6 3/4] vhost: support async dequeue for split ring

Wenwu Ma wenwux.ma at intel.com
Fri Jul 16 21:18:07 CEST 2021


From: Yuan Wang <yuanx.wang at intel.com>

This patch implements asynchronous dequeue data path for split ring.
A new asynchronous dequeue function is introduced. With this function,
the application can try to receive packets from the guest with
offloading large copies to the async channel, thus saving precious CPU
cycles.
