This is an attempt to add LSC and Rxq interrupt for a virtual device, virtio-user (with the backend of both vhost-user and vhost-kernel).
HOW TO TEST: Step 1: start testpmd with a virtual vhost device: $ testpmd -c 0x3 -n 4 --socket-mem 1024 --no-pci \ --vdev 'eth_vhost0,iface=/tmp/sock0' -- -i Step 2: start l3fwd-power with a virtio-user device: $ l3fwd-power -c 0xc -n 4 --socket-mem 1024 --no-pci \ --file-prefix=l3fwd-pwd \ --vdev=virtio_user0,path=/tmp/sock0 \ -- -p 1 -P --config="(0,0,1)" \ --no-numa --parse-ptype Step 3: start burst in testpmd (testpmd)> start tx_first Packets will be received and forwarded back by l3fwd-power. And l3fwd-power will keep in polling mode. Step 4: stop burst in testpmd (testpmd)> stop l3fwd-power will change to interrupt mode with few CPU consumption. Step 5: kill testpmd $ kill -p `pidof testpmd` The link status will be changed to down in l3fwd-power.
