2012-11-29virtio: limit avail bytes lookaheadMichael S. Tsirkin
Commit 0d8d7690850eb0cf2b2b60933cf47669a6b6f18f introduced a regression in virtio-net performance because it looks into the ring aggressively while we really only care about a single packet worth of buffers. Reported as bugzilla 1066055 in launchpad. To fix, add parameters limiting lookahead, and use in virtqueue_avail_bytes. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2012-11-27virtio-rng: do not use g_assert_cmpintPaolo Bonzini
g_assert_cmpint is not available on glib 2.12, which is the minimum version required to build QEMU (we only require 2.16 to run tests, since that is the first version including GTester). Do not use it in hardware models, use a normal assertion instead. This fixes the buildbot failure for default_x86_64_rhel5.

Disable the rate-limit timer on device remove (e.g. hot-unplug). Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2012-11-26virtio-rng: remove extra request for entropyAmit Shah
If we got fewer bytes from the backend than requested, don't poke the backend for more bytes; the guest will ask for more (or if the guest has already asked for more, the backend knows about it via handle_input()).

2012-11-26virtio-rng: use virtqueue_get_avail_bytes, fix migrationAmit Shah
Popping an elem from the vq just to find out its length causes problems with save/load later on. Use the new virtqueue_get_avail_bytes() function instead, saves us the complexity in the migration code, as well as makes the migration endian-safe.

2012-11-16virtio-rng: add rate limiting supportAnthony Liguori
This adds parameters to virtio-rng-pci to allow rate limiting the entropy a guest receives. An example command line: $ qemu -device virtio-rng-pci,max-bytes=1024,period=1000 Would limit entropy collection to 1Kb/s. Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2012-11-16virtio-rng: hardware random number generator deviceAmit Shah
The Linux kernel already has a virtio-rng driver, this is the device implementation. When the guest asks for entropy from the virtio hwrng, it puts a buffer in the vq. We then put entropy into that buffer, and push it back to the guest.
