Jason Wang 70181d5120 vhost_net: remove tx polling state ... After commit 2b8b328b61 (vhost_net: handle polling errors when setting backend), we in fact track the polling state through poll->wqh, so there's no need to duplicate the work with an extra vhost_net_polling_state. So this patch removes this and make the code simpler. This patch also removes the all tx starting/stopping code in tx path according to Michael's suggestion. Netperf test shows almost the same result in stream test, but gets improvements on TCP_RR tests (both zerocopy or copy) especially on low load cases. Tested between multiqueue kvm guest and external host with two direct connected 82599s. zerocopy disabled: sessions|transaction rates|normalize| before/after/+improvements 1 | 9510.24/11727.29/+23.3% | 693.54/887.68/+28.0% | 25| 192931.50/241729.87/+25.3% | 2376.80/2771.70/+16.6% | 50| 277634.64/291905.76/+5% | 3118.36/3230.11/+3.6% | zerocopy enabled: sessions|transaction rates|normalize| before/after/+improvements 1 | 7318.33/11929.76/+63.0% | 521.86/843.30/+61.6% | 25| 167264.88/242422.15/+44.9% | 2181.60/2788.16/+27.8% | 50| 272181.02/294347.04/+8.1% | 3071.56/3257.85/+6.1% | Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Acked-by: Michael S.
