Abstract:	隨著電腦軟硬體能力的大幅提昇，虛擬機器技術的應用也日趨普遍，虛擬機的技術可以依使用者的需要用來解決許多系統方面的問題，例如容錯（fault tolerance）、系統搬移（migration）、入侵偵測（intrusion detection）或偵錯（debugging）等。除了指令虛擬化之外，I/O介面必須在軟硬體溝通的程序中加入轉換的機制，由於周邊裝置種類繁多，所以也有很多不同的技術。目前在VMM中提供的I/O裝置虛擬化模型，常是系統整體效能無法上升的一大瓶頸，而我們發現很多研究藉由避開VMM對I/O的不必要監控，可以得到效能的提升。目前Gigabit(1000M)網路已經普及化，高速網路傳輸的效能亦需要重視及優化，而本論文將針對TCP的接收，實做LRO(Large Receive Offload)於虛擬機器中，並針對虛擬機器傳遞封包的機制以不同的架構傳遞，分析效能上的改進與否。 With the increasing of modern computing power that greatly enhance the feasibility of virtual machine technology. VM technology is usually used to solve many management problems, such as fault-tolerant, process migration, intrusion detection or system debugging, and so on. In the virtual machine architecture, VM Monitor (VMM) is the key component for virtualization. Except to the virtualization of instruction set and memory space, the complexity of I/O devices and software drivers caused the raising need for I/O virtualization. Communication compatibility and performance of I/O software to the real hardware devices are the major concern. Gigabit Ethernet NICs are increasingly common. It is very important to focus on performance. In this paper, we implemented Large Receive Offload (LRO) in virtual network driver. Finally we will analysis modified driver and measure its effectiveness.
