I want to apply page_pool to our virtio_net. This virtio_net works on
our device.
I want to verify whether page_pool on virtio_net with our device can
improve the performance or not.
And I found that ethtool is wrong.
I use virtio_net on our device. I found that page member variable in rq
is not used in recv path.
When virtio_net is modprobe, I checked page member variable in rq with
kprobe or crash tool. page member variable in rq is always NULL.
But sg in recv path is used.
So how to use page member variable in rq? If page member variable in rq
is always NULL, can we remove it?
BTW, I use ping and iperf tool to make tests with virtio_net. In the
tests, page member variable in rq is always NULL.
It is interesting.
