[PATCH OLK-5.10 v4 0/2] Add vhost net polling for high frequency TX mode
During high-frequency packet transmission, if vhost immediately notifies virtio driver after reading the virtio_queue empty, virtio driver will perform a kick after sending the next packet. However, if vhost waits a little longer, it could get the next packet sent by virtio driver without the need for virtio to perform a kick. This patch optimizes for this issue. If the TX interval recently recorded by vhost-net is within 50us, it is considered a high-frequency packet sending. At this time, after detecting the virtio_queue is empty, vhost-net will wait for new packets to arrive before notifing the virtio driver.
