From 610e0a8b628bd33ee8276da8d7dc36b970d9b73e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rich Lane Date: Mon, 4 Apr 2016 19:11:01 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] virtio: use zeroed memory for simple Tx header For simple TX the virtio-net header must be zeroed, but it was using memory that had been initialized with indirect descriptor tables. This resulted in "unsupported gso type" errors from librte_vhost. We can use the same memory for every descriptor to save cachelines in the vswitch.
