net: broadcast hub packets if at least one port can receive
In commit 60c07d933c66c4b30a83b7ccbc8a0cb3df1b2d0e ("net: fix qemu_can_send_packet logic") the "VLAN" broadcast behavior was changed to queue packets if any net client cannot receive. It turns out that this was not actually the right fix and just hides the real bug that hw/usb/dev-network.c:usbnet_receive() clobbers its receive buffer when called multiple times in a row. The commit also introduced a new bug that "VLAN" packets would not be sent if one of multiple net clients was down. The hw/usb/dev-network.c bug has since been fixed, so this patch reverts broadcast behavior to send packets as long as one net client can receive. Packets simply get queued for the net clients that are temporarily unable to receive. Reported-by: Roy.Li <rongqing.li@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
