This is unrelated to the purpose of this patch, it can be moved in a
dedicated trivial patch.

It looks really similar to async_mbuf_to_desc_seg(), just the direction
of the DMA copoy is changed.

Maybe we could refactor the two functions in a single one with adding a 
parameter for the direction. Something like this:

static __rte_always_inline int
async_fill_seg(struct virtio_net *dev, struct vhost_virtqueue *vq,
		struct rte_mbuf *m, uint32_t mbuf_offset,
		uint64_t buf_iova, uint32_t cpy_len, bool to_desc)
{
	struct vhost_async *async = vq->async;
	uint64_t mapped_len;
	uint32_t buf_offset = 0;
	void *src, *dst
	void *host_iova;

	while (cpy_len) {
		host_iova = (void *)(uintptr_t)gpa_to_first_hpa(dev,
				buf_iova + buf_offset, cpy_len, &mapped_len);
		if (unlikely(!host_iova)) {
			VHOST_LOG_DATA(ERR, "(%s) %s: failed to get host iova.\n",
				       dev->ifname, __func__);
			return -1;
		}

		if (to_desc) {
			src = (void *)(uintptr_t)rte_pktmbuf_iova_offset(m, mbuff_offset);
			dst = host_iova
		} else {
			dst = host_iova
			src = (void *)(uintptr_t)rte_pktmbuf_iova_offset(m, mbuff_offset);
		}

		if (unlikely(async_iter_add_iovec(dev, async, src, dst, 
(size_t)mapped_len)))
			return -1;

		cpy_len -= (uint32_t)mapped_len;
		mbuf_offset += (uint32_t)mapped_len;
		buf_offset += (uint32_t)mapped_len;
	}

	return 0;
}


Then if you don't pass a variable but a static true/false value for
to_desc, the compiler should generate the same code, so no performance
degradation.

You can do here the same refactoring I did for the enqueue path, i.e.
merging copy_desc_to_mbuf and async_desc_to_mbuf in a single function.

Thanks so much for the suggestion.
I noticed the async_mbuf_to_desc_seg() refactoring in enqueue path,
so I refactored the previous dequeue code to async_desc_to_mbuf_seg().
These two functions can indeed be combined into one, it is a good idea.

Yes, I am preparing the v1 patch in 22.07, including the refactoring here.
Please see next version.
