From ccc9d90a9a8b5c4ad7e9708ec41f75ff9e98d61d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wei Liu Date: Fri, 3 Apr 2015 14:44:59 +0800 Subject: [PATCH] xenbus_client: Extend interface to support multi-page ring Originally Xen PV drivers only use single-page ring to pass along information. This might limit the throughput between frontend and backend. The patch extends Xenbus driver to support multi-page ring, which in general should improve throughput if ring is the bottleneck. Changes to various frontend / backend to adapt to the new interface are also included. Affected Xen drivers: * blkfront/back * netfront/back * pcifront/back * scsifront/back * vtpmfront The interface is documented, as before, in xenbus_client.c.
