vhost: logs sharing
Currently we allocate one vhost log per vhost device. This is sub optimal when: - Guest has several device with vhost as backend - Guest has multiqueue devices In the above cases, we can avoid the memory allocation by sharing a single vhost log among all the vhost devices. This is done through: - Introducing a new vhost_log structure with refcnt inside. - Using a global pointer to vhost_log structure that will be used. And introduce helper to get the log with expected log size and helper to - drop the refcnt to the old log. - Each vhost device still keep track of a pointer to the log that was used. With above, if no resize happens, all vhost device will share a single vhost log. During resize, a new vhost_log structure will be allocated and made for the global pointer. And each vhost devices will drop the refcnt to the old log. Tested by doing scp during migration for a 2 queues virtio-net-pci. Cc: Michael S.
