Currently, the hv_sock send() iterates once over the buffer, puts data into
the VMBUS channel and returns. It doesn't maximize on the case when there
is a simultaneous reader draining data from the channel. In such a case,
the send() can maximize the bandwidth (and consequently minimize the cpu
cycles) by iterating until the channel is found to be full.
Perf data:
Total Data Transfer: 10GB/iteration
Single threaded reader/writer, Linux hvsocket writer with Windows hvsocket
reader
Packet size: 64KB
CPU sys time was captured using the 'time' command for the writer to send
10GB of data.
'Send Buffer Loop' is with the patch applied.
The values below are over 10 iterations.
|--------------------------------------------------------|
| | Current | Send Buffer Loop |
|--------------------------------------------------------|
| | Throughput | CPU sys | Throughput | CPU sys |
| | (MB/s) | time (s) | (MB/s) | time (s) |
|--------------------------------------------------------|
| Min | 407 | 7.048 | 401 | 5.958 |
|--------------------------------------------------------|
| Max | 455 | 7.563 | 542 | 6.993 |
|--------------------------------------------------------|
| Avg | 440 | 7.411 | 451 | 6.639 |
|--------------------------------------------------------|
| Median | 446 | 7.417 | 447 | 6.761 |
|--------------------------------------------------------|
Observation:
1. The avg throughput doesn't really change much with this change for this
scenario. This is most probably because the bottleneck on throughput is
somewhere else.
2. The average system (or kernel) cpu time goes down by 10%+ with this
change, for the same amount of data transfer.
