Subject: [PATCH 2/2] virtio: virtio_scsi: Set can_queue to the length of the virtqueue.
Date: Thu, 10 Aug 2017 17:40:35 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170810164035.19963-3-rjones@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170810164035.19963-1-rjones@redhat.com>
Since switching to blk-mq as the default in commit 5c279bd9e406
("scsi: default to scsi-mq"), virtio-scsi LUNs consume about 10x as
much kernel memory.
qemu currently allocates a fixed 128 entry virtqueue. can_queue
currently is set to 1024. But with indirect descriptors, each command
in the queue takes 1 virtqueue entry, so the number of commands which
can be queued is equal to the length of the virtqueue.
Note I intend to send a patch to qemu to allow the virtqueue size to
be configured from the qemu command line.
Thanks Paolo Bonzini, Christoph Hellwig.
