Subject: [PATCH v2 0/4] Add vhost-user support to passt. (part 3)
Date: Fri, 12 Jul 2024 17:32:40 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240712153244.831436-1-lvivier@redhat.com> (raw)
This series of patches adds vhost-user support to passt
and then allows passt to connect to QEMU network backend using
virtqueue rather than a socket.
With QEMU, rather than using to connect:
-netdev stream,id=s,server=off,addr.type=unix,addr.path=/tmp/passt_1.socket
we will use:
-chardev socket,id=chr0,path=/tmp/passt_1.socket
-netdev vhost-user,id=netdev0,chardev=chr0
-device virtio-net,netdev=netdev0
-object memory-backend-memfd,id=memfd0,share=on,size=$RAMSIZE
-numa node,memdev=memfd0
The memory backend is needed to share data between passt and QEMU.
Performance comparison between "-netdev stream" and "-netdev vhost-user":

v2:
- remove PATCH 4
- rewrite PATCH 2 and 3 to follow passt coding style
- move some code from PATCH 3 to PATCH 4 (previously PATCH 5)
- partially addressed David's comment on PATCH 5
