2014-11-02net/slirp: specify logbase for smbdMichael Tokarev
It looks like smbd always logs to /var/log/samba/log.$progname even if config file specifies different logfile -- when it needs to log something before completing reading the config file. But if it can't open it for writing, it fails and exits. Tell smbd to use our temp dir as logbase (-l option) to avoid that. The same option is used by samba3 and samba4, so there should be no incompatible changes.

2014-09-04net: Forbid dealing with packets when VM is not runningzhanghailiang
For all NICs(except virtio-net) emulated by qemu, Such as e1000, rtl8139, pcnet and ne2k_pci, Qemu can still receive packets when VM is not running. If this happened in *migration's* last PAUSE VM stage, but before the end of the migration, the new receiving packets will possibly dirty parts of RAM which has been cached in *iovec*(will be sent asynchronously) and dirty parts of new RAM which will be missed. This will lead serious network fault in VM. To avoid this, we forbid receiving packets in generic net code when VM is not running. Bug reproduction steps: (1) Start a VM which configured at least one NIC (2) In VM, open several Terminal and do *Ping IP -i 0.1* (3) Migrate the VM repeatedly between two Hosts And the *PING* command in VM will very likely fail with message: 'Destination HOST Unreachable', the NIC in VM will stay unavailable unless you run 'service network restart' Signed-off-by: zhanghailiang <zhang.zhanghailiang@huawei.com> Reviewed-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Juan Quintela <quintela@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Michael S.

2014-03-12tap: avoid deadlocking rxStefan Hajnoczi
The net subsystem has a control flow mechanism so peer NetClientStates can tell each other to stop sending packets. This is used to stop monitoring the tap file descriptor for incoming packets if the guest rx ring has no spare buffers. There is a corner case when tap_can_send() is true at the beginning of an event loop iteration but becomes false before the tap_send() fd handler is invoked. tap_send() will read the packet from the tap file descriptor and attempt to send it. The net queue will hold on to the packet and return 0, indicating that further I/O is not possible. tap then stops monitoring the file descriptor for reads. This is unlike the normal case where tap_can_send() is the same before and during the event loop iteration. The event loop would simply not monitor the file descriptor if tap_can_send() returns true. Upon next iteration it would check tap_can_send() again and begin monitoring if we can send. The deadlock happens because tap_send() explicitly disabled read_poll. This is done with the expectation that the peer will call qemu_net_queue_flush(). But hw/net/virtio-net.c does not monitor vm_running transitions and issue the flush. Hence we're left with a broken tap device.

2014-03-12slirp smb with modern win guests when samba is also running on hostMichael Tokarev
After numerous reports that -smb (or -netdev user,smb=foo) not working with modern windows (win7 and vista are reported as non-working), I started digging myself. And found that indeed it doesn't work, and why. The thing is that modern win tries to connect to port 445 (microsoft-ds) first, and if that fails, it falls back to old port 139 (netbios-ssn). slirp code in qemu only redirects port 139, it does not touch port 445. So the prob is that if samba is also running on the host, guest will try to communicate using port 445, and that will succed, but ofcourse guest will not talk with our samba but with samba running on the host. If samba is not running on the host, guest will fall back to port 139, and will reach the redirecting rule and qemu will spawn smbd correctly. The solution is to redirect both ports (139 and 445), and the fix is a one-liner, adding second call to slirp_add_exec() at the end of net/slirp.c:slirp_smb() function (provided below). But it looks like that is not a proper fix really, since in theory we should redirect both ports to the SAME, single samba instance, but I'm not sure this is possible with slirp. Well, even if two smbd processes will be run on the same config dir, it should not be a problem.

2014-02-25net: remove implicit peer from offload APIStefan Hajnoczi
The virtio_net offload APIs are used on the NIC's peer (i.e. the tap device). The API was defined to implicitly use nc->peer, saving the caller the trouble. This wasn't ideal because: 1. There are callers who have the peer but not the NIC. Currently they are forced to bypass the API and access peer->info->... directly. 2. The rest of the net.h API uses nc, not nc->peer, so it is inconsistent. This patch pushes nc->peer back up to callers. Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>

This patch fixes configure so that the netmap backend is not compiled in if the host doesn't support an API version >= 11.

Moreover, some changes have been done to net/netmap.c in order to reflect the current netmap API/ABI (11). The NETMAP_WITH_LIBS macro makes possible to include some utilities (e.g. netmap ring macros, D(), RD() and other high level functions) through the netmap headers.

2013-12-09net: Update netdev peer on link changeVlad Yasevich
When a link change occurs on a backend (like tap), we currently do not propage such change to the nic. As a result, when someone turns off a link on a tap device, for instance, then a guest doesn't see that change and continues to try to send traffic or run DHCP even though the lower-layer is disconnected. This is OK when the network is set up as a HUB since the the guest may be connected to other HUB ports too, but when it's set up as a netdev, it makes thinkgs worse. The patch addresses this by setting the peers link down only when the peer is not a HUBPORT device. With this patch, in the following config -netdev tap,id=net0 -device e1000,mac=XXXXX,netdev=net0 when net0 link is turned off, the guest e1000 shows lower-layer link down. This allows guests to boot much faster in such configurations. With windows guest, it also allows the network to recover properly since windows will not configure the link-local IPv4 address, and when the link is turned on, the proper address address is configured.

To compile QEMU with netmap support, use the following configure options: ./configure [...] --enable-netmap --extra-cflags=-I/path/to/netmap/sys where "/path/to/netmap" contains the netmap source code, available at http://info.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/netmap/ The same webpage contains more information about the netmap project (together with papers and presentations).

SO_REUSEADDR should be avoided on Windows but is desired on other operating systems. So instead of setting it we call socket_set_fast_reuse that will result in the appropriate behaviour on all operating systems. An exception to this rule are multicast sockets where it is sensible to have multiple sockets listen on the same ip and port and we should set SO_REUSEADDR on windows.

2013-09-06net: Rename send_queue to incoming_queueJan Kiszka
Each networking client has a queue for packets that could not yet be delivered to that client. Calling this queue "send_queue" is highly confusing as it has nothing to to with packets send from this client but to it. Avoid this confusing by renaming it to "incoming_queue".
