2015-11-25vhost-user: clarify start and enableMichael S. Tsirkin
It seems that we currently have some duplication between started and enabled states. The actual reason is that enable is not documented correctly: what it does is connecting ring to the backend. This is important for MQ, because a Linux guest expects TX packets to be completed even if it disables some queues temporarily.

The current ivshmem protocol uses 'long' for integers. But the sizeof(long) depends on the host and the endianess is not defined, which may cause portability troubles.

2015-10-22vhost user: add rarp sending after live migration for legacy guestThibaut Collet
A new vhost user message is added to allow QEMU to ask to vhost user backend to broadcast a fake RARP after live migration for guest without GUEST_ANNOUNCE capability. This new message is sent only if the backend supports the new VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_RARP protocol feature. The payload of this new message is the MAC address of the guest (not known by the backend). The MAC address is copied in the first 6 bytes of a u64 to avoid to create a new payload message type. This new message has no equivalent ioctl so a new callback is added in the userOps structure to send the request. Upon reception of this new message the vhost user backend must generate and broadcast a fake RARP request to notify the migration is terminated.

2015-09-24vhost-user: add multiple queue supportChangchun Ouyang
This patch is initially based a patch from Nikolay Nikolaev. This patch adds vhost-user multiple queue support, by creating a nc and vhost_net pair for each queue. Qemu exits if find that the backend can't support the number of requested queues (by providing queues=# option). The max number is queried by a new message, VHOST_USER_GET_QUEUE_NUM, and is sent only when protocol feature VHOST_USER_PROTOCOL_F_MQ is present first. The max queue check is done at vhost-user initiation stage. We initiate one queue first, which, in the meantime, also gets the max_queues the backend supports. In older version, it was reported that some messages are sent more times than necessary. Here we came an agreement with Michael that we could categorize vhost user messages to 2 types: non-vring specific messages, which should be sent only once, and vring specific messages, which should be sent per queue. Here I introduced a helper function vhost_user_one_time_request(), which lists following messages as non-vring specific messages: VHOST_USER_SET_OWNER VHOST_USER_RESET_DEVICE VHOST_USER_SET_MEM_TABLE VHOST_USER_GET_QUEUE_NUM For above messages, we simply ignore them when they are not sent the first time.

Parse ibm,architecture.vec table obtained from the guest and enable memory node configuration via ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory if guest supports it. This is in preparation to support memory hotplug for sPAPR guests. This changes the way memory node configuration is done. Currently all memory nodes are built upfront. But after this patch, only memory@0 node for RMA is built upfront. Guest kernel boots with just that and rest of the memory nodes (via memory@XXX or ibm,dynamic-reconfiguration-memory) are built when guest does ibm,client-architecture-support call.

For pkts copied to the CPU (to be processed by guest driver), mark the Rx descriptor with flag "OFFLOAD_FWD" to indicate device has already forwarded pkt. The guest driver will use this indicator to avoid duplicate forwarding in the guest OS. Examples include bcast/mcast/unknown ucast pkts flooded to bridged ports. We want to avoid both the device and the guest bridge driver flooding these pkts, which would result in duplicates pkts on the wire. Packet sampling, such as sFlow, can also use this technique to mark pkts for the guest OS to record but otherwise drop.

The rocker device uses same PCI device ID as sdhci. Since rocker device driver has already been accepted into Linux 3.18, and REDHAT_SDHCI device ID isn't used by any drivers, it's safe to move REDHAT_SDHCI device ID, avoiding conflict with rocker.

2014-10-23docs/qcow2: Limit refcount_order to [0, 6]Max Reitz
Specify the upper limit of refcount_order to be 6 (that is, refcount_bits = 64). Any larger value does not make much sense when all offsets, sizes, cluster counts etc. "only" have a width of 64 bit as well, and very large values would be very difficult to support. Therefore, just cap it at the largest reasonable value. Suggested-by: Eric Blake <eblake@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Max Reitz <mreitz@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>
2014-10-23docs/qcow2: Correct refcount_block_entriesMax Reitz
A refblock entry may have a different size than 16 bits, it may even be smaller than a byte. Correct the refcount_block_entries calculation accordingly. Signed-off-by: Max Reitz <mreitz@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Kevin Wolf <kwolf@redhat.com>
2014-10-15vga-pci: add qext region to mmioGerd Hoffmann
Add a qemu extented register range to the standard vga mmio bar. Right nowe there are two registers: One readonly register returning the size of the region (so we can easily add more registers there if needed) and one endian control register, so guests (especially ppc) can flip the framebuffer endianness as they need it.

2014-08-15docs: Make the recommendation for the backing file name position a requirementMaria Kustova
The current version of the qcow2 specification recommends to save the backing file name in the end of the first cluster. It follows that the backing file name can be saved somewhere in the image, but the first cluster, which contradicts the current QEMU implementation. The patch makes the backing file name required to be placed after the header extensions in the first image cluster.

2014-06-29vhost-user: fix regions provied with VHOST_USER_SET_MEM_TABLE messageDamjan Marion
Old code was affected by memory gaps which resulted in buffer pointers pointing to address outside of the mapped regions. Here we are introducing following changes: - new function qemu_get_ram_block_host_ptr() returns host pointer to the ram block, it is needed to calculate offset of specific region in the host memory - new field mmap_offset is added to the VhostUserMemoryRegion. It contains offset where specific region starts in the mapped memory. As there is stil no wider adoption of vhost-user agreement was made that we will not bump version number due to this change - other fileds in VhostUserMemoryRegion struct are not changed, as they are all needed for usermode app implementation - region data is not taken from ram_list.blocks anymore, instead we use region data which is alredy calculated for use in vhost-net - Now multiple regions can have same FD and user applicaton can call mmap() multiple times with the same FD but with different offset (user needs to take care for offset page alignment) Signed-off-by: Damjan Marion <damarion@cisco.com> Acked-by: Michael S.
