vhost_net tx batching
This series tries to implement tx batching support for vhost. This was
done by using MSG_MORE as a hint for under layer socket. The backend
(e.g tap) can then batch the packets temporarily in a list and
submit it all once the number of bacthed exceeds a limitation.
Tests shows obvious improvement on guest pktgen over over
mlx4(noqueue) on host:
Mpps -+%
rx-frames = 0 0.91 +0%
rx-frames = 4 1.00 +9.8%
rx-frames = 8 1.00 +9.8%
rx-frames = 16 1.01 +10.9%
rx-frames = 32 1.07 +17.5%
rx-frames = 48 1.07 +17.5%
rx-frames = 64 1.08 +18.6%
rx-frames = 64 (no MSG_MORE) 0.91 +0%
Changes from V4:
- stick to NAPI_POLL_WEIGHT for rx-frames is user specify a value
greater than it.
Changes from V3:
- use ethtool instead of module parameter to control the maximum
number of batched packets
- avoid overhead when MSG_MORE were not set and no packet queued
Changes from V2:
- remove uselss queue limitation check (and we don't drop any packet now)
Changes from V1:
- drop NAPI handler since we don't use NAPI now
- fix the issues that may exceeds max pending of zerocopy
- more improvement on available buffer detection
- move the limitation of batched pacekts from vhost to tuntap

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
