Packet Forwarding Method, Computer Device, and Intermediate Device
Abstract:
An intermediate device in a computer device includes a first agent unit supporting single-root input/output (I/O) virtualization (SR-IOV) and a second agent unit supporting Virtio, and the first agent unit and the second agent unit each are an agent of a function unit in a network adapter such that, a virtual machine in the computer device may use an SR-IOV technology or a Virtio technology, and does not configure two sets of independent resource pools to separately support corresponding virtualization technologies, to implement normalization of the resource pools. In addition, the intermediate device implements hardware offloading of Virtio protocol packet forwarding using hardware.
