Date: Mon, 25 May 2015 01:23:59 -0400 From: Jason Wang <jasowang@...hat.com> To: mst@...hat.com, virtualization@...ts.linux-foundation.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, netdev@...r.kernel.org Cc: rusty@...tcorp.com.au, Jason Wang <jasowang@...hat.com> Subject: [RFC V7 PATCH 2/7] virtio_ring: try to disable event index callbacks in virtqueue_disable_cb() Currently, we do nothing to prevent the callbacks in virtqueue_disable_cb() when event index is used. This may cause spurious interrupts which may damage the performance. This patch tries to publish last_used_idx as the used even to prevent the callbacks.
