2013-02-01tap: multiqueue supportJason Wang
Recently, linux support multiqueue tap which could let userspace call TUNSETIFF for a signle device many times to create multiple file descriptors as independent queues. User could also enable/disabe a specific queue through TUNSETQUEUE. The patch adds the generic infrastructure to create multiqueue taps. To achieve this a new parameter "queues" were introduced to specify how many queues were expected to be created for tap by qemu itself. Alternatively, management could also pass multiple pre-created tap file descriptors separated with ':' through a new parameter fds like -netdev tap,id=hn0,fds="X:Y:..:Z". Multiple vhost file descriptors could also be passed in this way. Each TAPState were still associated to a tap fd, which mean multiple TAPStates were created when user needs multiqueue taps. Since each TAPState contains one NetClientState, with the multiqueue nic support, an N peers of NetClientState were built up. A new parameter, mq_required were introduce in tap_open() to create multiqueue tap fds. Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2013-02-01tap: introduce a helper to get the name of an interfaceJason Wang
This patch introduces a helper tap_get_ifname() to get the device name of tap device. This is needed when ifname is unspecified in the command line and qemu were asked to create tap device by itself. In this situation, the name were allocated by kernel, so if multiqueue is asked, we need to fetch its name after creating the first queue. Only linux has this support since it's the only platform that supports multiqueue tap. Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2013-02-01tap: add Linux multiqueue supportJason Wang
This patch add basic multiqueue support for Linux. When multiqueue is needed, we will first check whether kernel support multiqueue tap before creating more queues. Two new functions tap_fd_enable() and tap_fd_disable() were introduced to enable and disable a specific queue. Since the multiqueue is only supported in Linux, return error on other platforms.

2012-12-19net: reorganize headersPaolo Bonzini
Move public headers to include/net, and leave private headers in net/. Put the virtio headers in include/net/tap.h, removing the multiple copies that existed. Leave include/net/tap.h as the interface for NICs, and net/tap_int.h as the interface for OS-specific parts of the tap backend. Signed-off-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com>

2009-10-30net: move AIX code into net/tap-aix.cMark McLoughlin
Okay, this makes the tap options available on AIX even though there's no support, but if we want to do it right we should have not compile the tap code at all on AIX using e.g. CONFIG_TAP. Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
