Subject: [PATCH 18/18] vhost: batch used descs chains write-back with packed
ring
[ upstream commit b473ec1131ee44ee25e0536a04be65246b93f4f3 ]
Instead of writing back descriptors chains in order, let's
write the first chain flags last in order to improve batching.
Also, move the write barrier in logging cache sync, so that it
is done only when logging is enabled. It means there is now
one more barrier for split ring when logging is enabled.
With Kernel's pktgen benchmark, ~3% performance gain is measured.
