When device IOTLB is enabled, all address translations were stored in interval tree. O(lgN) searching time could be slow for virtqueue metadata (avail, used and descriptors) since they were accessed much often than other addresses. So this patch introduces an O(1) array which points to the interval tree nodes that store the translations of vq metadata. Those array were update during vq IOTLB prefetching and were reset during each invalidation and tlb update. Each time we want to access vq metadata, this small array were queried before interval tree. This would be sufficient for static mappings but not dynamic mappings, we could do optimizations on top. Test were done with l2fwd in guest (2M hugepage): noiommu | before | after tx 1.32Mpps | 1.06Mpps(82%) | 1.30Mpps(98%) rx 2.33Mpps | 1.46Mpps(63%) | 2.29Mpps(98%) We can almost reach the same performance as noiommu mode.

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
