From: Asias He
Date: Thu Jul 12 2012 - 11:34:14 EST


Hi folks,

This patchset adds vhost-blk support. vhost-blk is a in kernel virito-blk
device accelerator. Compared to userspace virtio-blk implementation, vhost-blk
gives about 5% to 15% performance improvement.

Asias He (5):
aio: Export symbols and struct kiocb_batch for in kernel aio usage
eventfd: Export symbol eventfd_file_create()
vhost: Make vhost a separate module
vhost-net: Use VHOST_NET_FEATURES for vhost-net
vhost-blk: Add vhost-blk support
