2009-06-09net: add qemu_send_packet_async()Mark McLoughlin
Add a qemu_send_packet() variant which will queue up the packet if it cannot be sent when all client queues are full. It later invokes the supplied callback when the packet has been sent. If qemu_send_packet_async() returns zero, the caller is expected to not send any more packets until the queued packet has been sent. Packets are queued iff a receive() handler returns zero (indicating queue full) and the caller has provided a sent notification callback (indicating it will stop and start its own queue). We need the packet sending API to support queueing because: - a sending client should process all available packets in one go (e.g. virtio-net emptying its tx ring) - a receiving client may not be able to handle the packet (e.g. -EAGAIN from write() to tapfd) - the sending client could detect this condition in advance (e.g. by select() for writable on tapfd) - that's too much overhead (e.g. a select() call per packet) - therefore the sending client must handle the condition by dropping the packet or queueing it - dropping packets is poor form; we should queue. However, we don't want queueing to be completely transparent. We want the sending client to stop sending packets as soon as a packet is queued. This allows the sending client to be throttled by the receiver. Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com>
2009-06-09net: add return value to packet receive handlerMark McLoughlin
This allows us to handle queue full conditions rather than dropping the packet on the floor. Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com>
2009-06-09net: pass VLANClientState* as first arg to receive handlersMark McLoughlin
Give static type checking a chance to catch errors. Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com>
2009-06-09net: re-name vc->fd_read() to vc->receive()Mark McLoughlin
VLANClientState's fd_read() handler doesn't read from file descriptors, it adds a buffer to the client's receive queue. Re-name the handlers to make things a little less confusing. Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com>
2009-06-09net: add fd_readv() handler to qemu_new_vlan_client() argsMark McLoughlin
This, apparently, is the style we prefer - all VLANClientState should be an argument to qemu_new_vlan_client(). Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com>
2009-06-09net: Improve parameter error reportingJan Kiszka
As host network devices can also be instantiated via the monitor, errors should then be reported to the related monitor instead of stderr. This requires larger refactoring, so this patch starts small with introducing a helper to catch both cases and convert net_client_init as well as net_slirp_redir.

2009-05-27User Networking: Enable removal of redirectionsAlexander Graf
Using the new host_net_redir command you can easily create redirections on the fly while your VM is running. While that's great, it's missing the removal of redirections, in case you want to have a port closed again at a later point in time. This patch adds support for removal of redirections.

2009-04-21net: Untangle nested qemu_send_packet (Jan Kiszka)aliguori
Queue packets that are send during an ongoing packet delivery. This ensures that packets will always arrive in their logical order at each client of a VLAN. Currently, slirp generates such immediate relies, and e.g. packet-sniffing clients on the same VLAN may get confused.

2009-03-05monitor: Rework API (Jan Kiszka)aliguori
Refactor the monitor API and prepare it for decoupled terminals: term_print functions are renamed to monitor_* and all monitor services gain a new parameter (mon) that will once refer to the monitor instance the output is supposed to appear on. However, the argument remains unused for now. All monitor command callbacks are also extended by a mon parameter so that command handlers are able to pass an appropriate reference to monitor output services. For the case that monitor outputs so far happen without clearly identifiable context, the global variable cur_mon is introduced that shall once provide a pointer either to the current active monitor (while processing commands) or to the default one. On the mid or long term, those use case will be obsoleted so that this variable can be removed again. Due to the broad usage of the monitor interface, this patch mostly deals with converting users of the monitor API. A few of them are already extended to pass 'mon' from the command handler further down to internal functions that invoke monitor_printf. At this chance, monitor-related prototypes are moved from console.h to a new monitor.h. The same is done for the readline API.

2009-02-11qemu: PCI device, disk and host network hot-add / hot-remove (Marcelo Tosatti)aliguori
Add monitor command to hot-add PCI devices (nic and storage). Syntax is: pci_add pci_addr=[[<domain>:]<bus>:]<slot> nic|storage params It returns the domain, bus and slot for the newly added device on success. It is possible to attach a disk to a device after PCI initialization via the drive_add command. If so, a manual scan of the SCSI bus on the guest is necessary. Save QEMUMachine necessary for drive_init. Add monitor command to hot-remove devices, remove device data on _EJ0 notification.
