2017-07-03virtio-net: enable configurable tx queue sizeWei Wang
This patch enables the virtio-net tx queue size to be configurable between 256 (the default queue size) and 1024 by the user when the vhost-user backend is used. Currently, the maximum tx queue size for other backends is 512 due to the following limitations: - QEMU backend: the QEMU backend implementation in some cases may send 1024+1 iovs to writev. - Vhost_net backend: there are possibilities that the guest sends a vring_desc of memory which crosses a MemoryRegion thereby generating more than 1024 iovs after translation from guest-physical address in the backend.

2017-05-25virtio_net: Bypass backends for MTU feature negotiationMaxime Coquelin
This patch adds a new internal "x-mtu-bypass-backend" property to bypass backends for MTU feature negotiation. When this property is set, the MTU feature is negotiated as soon as supported by the guest and a MTU value is set via the host_mtu parameter. In case the backend advertises the feature (e.g. DPDK's vhost-user backend), the feature negotiation is propagated down to the backend. When this property is not set, the backend has to support the MTU feature for its negotiation to succeed. For compatibility purpose, this property is disabled for machine types v2.9 and older.

2016-09-27virtio-net: allow increasing rx queue sizeMichael S. Tsirkin
This allows increasing the rx queue size up to 1024: unlike with tx, guests don't put in huge S/G lists into RX so the risk of running into the max 1024 limitation due to some off-by-one seems small. It's helpful for users like OVS-DPDK which don't do any buffering on the host - 1K roughly matches 500 entries in tun + 256 in the current rx queue, which seems to work reasonably well. We could probably make do with ~750 entries but virtio spec limits us to powers of two. It might be a good idea to specify an s/g size limit in a future version. It also might be possible to make the queue size smaller down the road, 64 seems like the minimal value which will still work (as guests seem to assume a queue full of 1.5K buffers is enough to process the largest incoming packet, which is ~64K). No one actually asked for this, and with virtio 1 guests can reduce ring size without need for host configuration, so don't bother with this for now.

2016-02-16virtio-net: use the backend cross-endian capabilitiesGreg Kurz
When running a fully emulated device in cross-endian conditions, including a virtio 1.0 device offered to a big endian guest, we need to fix the vnet headers. This is currently handled by the virtio_net_hdr_swap() function in the core virtio-net code but it should actually be handled by the net backend. With this patch, virtio-net now tries to configure the backend to do the endian fixing when the device starts (i.e. drivers sets the CONFIG_OK bit). If the backend cannot support the requested endiannes, we have to fallback onto virtio_net_hdr_swap(): this is recorded in the needs_vnet_hdr_swap flag, to be used in the TX and RX paths. Note that we reset the backend to the default behaviour (guest native endianness) when the device stops (i.e. device status had CONFIG_OK bit and driver unsets it). This is needed, with the linux tap backend at least, otherwise the guest may lose network connectivity if rebooted into a different endianness. The current vhost-net code also tries to configure net backends. This will be no more needed and will be reverted in a subsequent patch.

2016-02-06virtio: move allocation to virtqueue_pop/vring_popPaolo Bonzini
The return code of virtqueue_pop/vring_pop is unused except to check for errors or 0. We can thus easily move allocation inside the functions and just return a pointer to the VirtQueueElement. The advantage is that we will be able to allocate only the space that is needed for the actual size of the s/g list instead of the full VIRTQUEUE_MAX_SIZE items. Currently VirtQueueElement takes about 48K of memory, and this kind of allocation puts a lot of stress on malloc. By cutting the size by two or three orders of magnitude, malloc can use much more efficient algorithms. The patch is pretty large, but changes to each device are testable more or less independently. Splitting it would mostly add churn. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2015-04-28virtio-net: Move DEFINE_VIRTIO_NET_FEATURES to virtio-netShannon Zhao
So far virtio-net-device can't expose host features to guest while using virtio-mmio because it doesn't set DEFINE_VIRTIO_NET_FEATURES on backend or transport. So the performance is low. The host features belong to the backend while virtio-net-pci, virtio-net-s390 and virtio-net-ccw set the DEFINE_VIRTIO_NET_FEATURES on transports. But they already have the ability to forward property accesses to the backend child. So if we move the host features to backends, it doesn't break the backwards compatibility for them and make host features work while using virtio-mmio. Here we move DEFINE_VIRTIO_NET_FEATURES to the backend virtio-net. The transports just sync the host features from backend. Meanwhile move virtio_net_set_config_size to virtio-net to make sure the config size is correct and don't expose it.

2014-06-19virtio-net: announce self by guestJason Wang
It's hard to track all mac addresses and their configurations (e.g vlan or ipv6) in qemu. Without this information, it's impossible to build proper garp packet after migration. The only possible solution to this is let guest (who knows all configurations) to do this. So, this patch introduces a new readonly config status bit of virtio-net, VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE which is used to notify guest to announce presence of its link through config update interrupt.When guest has done the announcement, it should ack the notification through VIRTIO_NET_CTRL_ANNOUNCE_ACK cmd. This feature is negotiated by a new feature bit VIRTIO_NET_F_ANNOUNCE (which has already been supported by Linux guest). During load, a counter of announcing rounds is set so that after the vm is running it can trigger rounds of config interrupts to notify the guest to build and send the correct garps.

For example 0x81000000 satisfies this condition when ETH_ALEN is 6. Fix it by making the value unsigned. For consistency, change first_multi as well. Note: all call sites were audited to confirm that making them unsigned didn't cause any issues: it turns out we actually never do math on them, so it's easy to validate because both values are always <= MAC_TABLE_ENTRIES.

2013-07-15virtio-net: add feature bit for any header s/gMichael S. Tsirkin
Old qemu versions required that 1st s/g entry is the header. Since QEMU 1.5, patchset titled "virtio-net: iovec handling cleanup" removed this limitation but a feature bit is needed so guests know it's safe to lay out header differently. This patch applies on top and adds such a feature bit to QEMU. It is set by default for virtio-net. virtio net header inline with the data is beneficial for latency and small packet bandwidth - guest driver code utilizing this feature has been acked but missed 3.11 by a narrow margin, it's pending for 3.12. This feature bit is cleared by default when compatibility with old machine types is requested. Other performance-sensitive devices (blk and scsi) don't yet support arbitrary s/g layouts, so we only set this bit for virtio-net for now. There are plans to allow arbitrary layouts there, but no code has been posted yet. Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Reviewed-by: Laszlo Ersek <lersek@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S.
