2009-10-27Enable UFO on virtio-net and tap devicesSridhar Samudrala
Enable UFO on the host tap device if supported and allow setting UFO on virtio-net in the guest. Signed-off-by: Sridhar Samudrala <sri@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-27net: add tap_set_offload()Mark McLoughlin
This API allows virtio-net to enable various offload features on a tap interface - e.g. to tell the host kernel it can pass up partial checksums to userspace. Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-27net: implement tap support for receive_raw()Mark McLoughlin
tap_receive_raw() always prepends a vnet header if IFF_VNET_HDR is enabled. tap_receive() only prepends when the a header is required but the NIC doesn't supply one. Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-27net: add receive_raw parameter to qemu_new_vlan_client()Mark McLoughlin
Trivial patch to allow supplying a receive_raw function. A future cleanup should combine this function pointer parameters into a table. Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-27net: add an API for 'raw' packetsMark McLoughlin
In the case where a NIC and backend agree on a packet header format, this API allows injecting packets which lack the agreed upon header. We need this for sending our gratuitous ARP. Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-27net: add flags parameter to packet queue interfaceMark McLoughlin
This allows for the addition of a raw flag, and leaves the way open for other flags too. Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-27net: add tap_has_vnet_hdr() and tap_using_vnet_hdr() APIsMark McLoughlin
These lamely named functions allow virtio-net to query whether IFF_VNET_HDR is enabled on a tap interface and inform the tap code that virtio-net will supply packets with a vnet header. Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-27net: add a client type codeMark McLoughlin
This is so as to allow APIs which operate on specific client types without having to add a function table entry which is only implemented by a single client type. Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-27net: add a vnet_hdr=on|off parameterMark McLoughlin
This allows people to disable the IFF_VNET_HDR flag, e.g. for debugging purposes or if they know they may migrate the guest to a machine without IFF_VNET_HDR support. It also allows making the lack of IFF_VNET_HDR support an error condition, e.g. in the case where a guest is being migrated from a host which does support it. Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-27net: refactor tap initializationMark McLoughlin
Re-factor things so that there is only one call site for net_tap_fd_init(). Two concerns about the QemuOpts usage here - firstly, we set the script arguments to their default value and, secondly, we set the ifname value to the name allocated by the kernel if none is supplied. Are we okay with such things ending up in writeconfig output? Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-27net: enable IFF_VNET_HDR on tap fds if availableMark McLoughlin
For now, we just add an empty header before writing and strip the header after reading. We really only want IFF_VNET_HDR when virtio_net is using it, but it would significantly complicate matters to try and do that. There should be little or no performance impact with always adding headers. Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-27net: make tap_receive() re-use tap_receive_iov() codeMark McLoughlin
In future we will want to prepend a virtio_net header if the NIC didn't supply one but IFF_VNET_HDR is enabled on the interface. This is most easily achived by using writev() in all cases. Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-27net: import linux tap ioctl definitionsMark McLoughlin
Making features dependent on the availability of newer versions if_tun.h is going to get seriously clumsy, so let's just import the definitions we need. It's only a small handful. If and when we're comfortable depending on 2.6.30 headers, we can remove this again. Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-27qdev: add netdev propertyGerd Hoffmann
Signed-off-by: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-27net: add macaddr type.Gerd Hoffmann
Add new type for mac addresses. Add function which sets the qemu default mac address if it finds the mac address uninitialized (i.e. all zeros). Signed-off-by: Gerd Hoffmann <kraxel@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-15net: fix multiple NICs causing net opts process to stopMark McLoughlin
For NICs, net_init_client() returns the index into the NICInfo table. qemu_opts_foreach() interprets non-zero as an error return an stops iterating over the options. So, if you have more than one '-net nic' on the command line, subsequent '-net' options do not get processed. Fix this by making net_client_init() only return non-zero if net_init_client() returns an error.

2009-10-15net: add queue for peer-to-peer packet forwardingMark McLoughlin
Now that we have re-factored the packet queue code, we can re-use it for peer-to-peer also. Patchworks-ID: 35520 Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-15net: refactor packet queueing codeMark McLoughlin
The packet queue code is fairly standalone, has some complex details and easily reusable. It makes sense to split it out on its own. This patch doesn't contain any functional changes. Patchworks-ID: 35511 Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-15net: allow NICs to be connected to netdevsMark McLoughlin
Introduce a 'peer' member to VLANClientState as an alternative to a vlan. The idea being that packets are transfered directly from peer clients rather than going through a vlan. Patchworks-ID: 35516 Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>

2009-10-15net: maintain a list of vlan-less clientsMark McLoughlin
Allows them to be cleaned up at shutdown. This is pretty lame, but will eventually go away as we make vlans the special case. Patchworks-ID: 35518 Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-15net: handle -netdevice optionsMark McLoughlin
Same as for -net except for: - only tap, user, vde and socket types are supported - the vlan parameter is not allowed - the name parameter is not allowed but the id parameter is required Patchworks-ID: 35517 Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>

2009-10-15net: allow clients not associated with a vlanMark McLoughlin
Allow net clients to be created which are not connected to any vlan. This is needed by Gerd in order to allow adding -device nic, where the absence of a vlan parameter will not imply vlan=0. Also needed to allow adding a -netdevice option which doesn't connect the backend to a vlan.

2009-10-15net: remove id field from NICInfoMark McLoughlin
Just use the name field instead since we now use the id paramater as the name, if supplied. Only implication with this change is that if id is not supplied, the value of the name paramater is used as an id. Patchworks-ID: 35512 Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-15net: handle id= parameter for -netMark McLoughlin
Use id= in the same was as the current name= parameter; if both are specified, id= is used. Patchworks-ID: 35514 Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-15net: pass monitor handle to client init functionsMark McLoughlin

2009-10-06Final net cleanup after conversion to QemuOptsMark McLoughlin
Now that net_client_init() has no users, kill it off and rename net_client_init_from_opts(). There is no further need for the old code in net_client_parse() either. We use qemu_opts_parse() 'firstname' facitity for that. Instead, move the special handling of the 'vmchannel' type there. Simplify the vl.c code into merely call net_client_parse() for each -net command line option and then calling net_init_clients() later to iterate over the options and create the clients.

2009-10-06Port host_net_add monitor command to QemuOptsMark McLoughlin
Here is where we rely on qemu_opts_parse() to handle an empty string. We could alternatively explicitly handle this here by using qemu_opts_create() when we're not supplied any parameters, but its cleaner this way.

2009-10-06Clean up legacy code in net_client_init()Mark McLoughlin
Now that we've ported everything over to QemuOpts, we can kill off all the cruft in net_client_init(). Note, the 'channel' type requires special handling as it uses a format that QemuOpts can't parse Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-06Port -net dump to QemuOptsMark McLoughlin

2009-10-06Port -net vde to QemuOptsMark McLoughlin

2009-10-06Port -net tap to QemuOptsMark McLoughlin
Some parameters are not valid with fd=. Rather than having a separate parameter description table for validating fd=, it's easir to just check for those invalid parameters later. Note, the need to possible lookup a file descriptor name from the monitor is the reason why all these init functions are passed a Monitor pointer.

2009-10-06Port -net user to QemuOptsMark McLoughlin
The handling of guestfwd and hostfwd requires the previous changes to allow multiple values for each parameter. The only way to access those multiple values is to use qemu_opt_foreach(). Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-06Port -net none and -net nic to QemuOptsMark McLoughlin
We use a table of network types to look up the initialization function and parameter descriptions in net_client_init(). For now, we use QemuOpts for the 'none' and 'nic' types. Subsequent patches port the other types too and the special casing is removed. We're not parsing the full -net option string here as the type has been stripped from the string, so we do not use qemu_opts_parse() 'firstname' facility. This will also be rectified in subsequent patches. No functional changes are introduced by this patch.

2009-10-06Drop config_error(), use qemu_error() insteadMarkus Armbruster
Diagnostic output goes to stderr, except when we're in a monitor command, when it goes to the monitor instead. config_error() implements this with a monitor argument: if it's non-null, report there, else to stderr. This obliges us to pass the monitor down various call chains, to make it available to config_error(). The recently created qemu_error() doesn't need a monitor argument to route output. Use it. There's one user-visible difference: config_error() prepended "qemu: " to a message bound for stderr. qemu_error() doesn't, which means the prefix goes away with this commit. If such a prefix is desired for stderr, then I figure it should be slapped on all error messages, not just the ones that used to go through config_error().

2009-10-06Don't exit() in config_error()Markus Armbruster
Propagating errors up the call chain is tedious. In startup code, we can take a shortcut: terminate the program. This is wrong elsewhere, the monitor in particular. config_error() tries to cater for both customers: it terminates the program unless its mon parameter tells it it's working for the monitor. Its users need to return status anyway (unless passing a null mon argument, which none do), which their users need to check. So this automatic exit buys us exactly nothing useful. Only the dangerous delusion that we can get away without returning status. Some of its users fell for that. Their callers continue executing after failure when working for the monitor. This bites monitor command host_net_add in two places: * net_slirp_init() continues after slirp_hostfwd(), slirp_guestfwd(), or slirp_smb() failed, and may end up reporting success. This happens for "host_net_add user guestfwd=foo": it complains about the invalid guest forwarding rule, then happily creates the user network without guest forwarding. * net_client_init() can't detect slirp_guestfwd() failure, and gets fooled by net_slirp_init() lying about success. Suppresses its "Could not initialize device" message. Add the missing error reporting, make sure errors are checked, and drop the exit() from config_error().

2009-10-06Make net_client_init() consume slirp_configs even on errorMarkus Armbruster
net_slirp_init() walks slirp_configs, and stops when it encounters one that doesn't work. Instead of consuming slirp_configs members there, consume them in the sole caller. This makes sure all are consumed. Before, the tail starting with the non-working one was left in place, where it made the next net_slirp_init() fail again.

2009-10-05Fix pci_add nic not to exit on bad modelMarkus Armbruster
Monitor command "pci_add ADDR nic model=MODEL" uses pci_nic_init() to create the NIC. When MODEL is unknown or "?", this prints to stderr and terminates the program. Change pci_nic_init() not to treat "?" specially, and to return NULL on failure. Switch uses during startup to new convenience wrapper pci_nic_init_nofail(), which behaves just like pci_nic_init() used to do. Bonus bug fix: we now check for qdev_init() failing there.

2009-10-05Make it obvious that pci_nic_init() can't failMarkus Armbruster
Before this patch, pci_nic_init() returns NULL when it can't find the model in pci_nic_models[]. Except this can't happen, because qemu_check_nic_model_list() just searched for model in pci_nic_models[], and terminated the program on failure. Repeating the search here is pointless. Instead, change qemu_check_nic_model_list() to return the model's array index. Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2009-10-05Correctly free nd structureGlauber Costa
When we "free" a NICInfo structure, we can leak pointers, since we don't do much more than setting used = 0. We free() the model parameter, but we don't set it to NULL. This means that a new user of this structure will see garbage in there. It was not noticed before because reusing a NICInfo is not that common, but it can be, for users of device pci hotplug. A user hit it, described at https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=524022 This patch memset's the whole structure, guaranteeing that anyone reusing it will see a fresh NICinfo. Also, we free some other strings that are currently leaking. This codebase is quite old, so this patch should feed all stable trees.
