> Commit eb1723a29b9a ("xen-netback: refactor guest rx") refactored Rx
> handling and as a result decreased max grant copy ops from 4352 to 64.
> Before this commit it would drain the rx_queue (while there are
> enough slots in the ring to put packets) then copy to all pages and write
> responses on the ring. With the refactor we do almost the same albeit
> the last two steps are done every COPY_BATCH_SIZE (64) copies.
> 
> For big packets, the value of 64 means copying 3 packets best case scenario
> (17 copies) and worst-case only 1 packet (34 copies, i.e. if all frags
> plus head cross the 4k grant boundary) which could be the case when
> packets go from local backend process.
> 
> Instead of making it static to 64 grant copies, lets allow the user to
> select its value (while keeping the current as default) by introducing
> the `copy_batch_size` module parameter. This allows users to select
> the higher batches (i.e. for better throughput with big packets) as it
> was prior to the above mentioned commit.

> Changes since v1:
>  * move rx_copy.{idx,op} reallocation to separate helper
>  Addressed Paul's comments:
>  * rename xenvif_copy_state#size field to batch_size
>  * argument `size` should be unsigned int
>  * vfree is safe with NULL
>  * realloc rx_copy.{idx,op} after copy op flush
