Para-virtualized Library for Bare-metal Network Performance in Virtualized Environment
2014
Now, virtualization is no more emerging research area, and we can easily find its application in our circumstance. Nevertheless, I/O workloads are reluctant to be applied in virtual environment since they still suffer from unacceptable performance degradation due to virtualization latency. Many previous papers identified that virtual I/O overhead is mainly caused by exits and redundant I/O stack, and proposed several techniques to reduce them. However, they still have some limitations. In this paper, we introduce a novel I/O virtualization framework which improves I/O performance by exploiting multicore architecture. We applied our framework to the virtual network, and it improves TCP throughput up to 169%, and decreases UDP latency up to 38% on the network with the 10Gbps NIC.
