2012-10-08net: consolidate NetClientState header files into onePaolo Bonzini
This patch doesn't seem much useful alone, I must admit. However, it makes sense as part of the upcoming directory reorganization, where I want to have include/net/tap.h as the net<->hw interface for tap. Then having both net/tap.h and include/net/tap.h does not work. "Fixed" by moving all the init functions to a single header file net/clients.h. The patch also adopts a uniform style for including net/*.h files from net/*.c, without the net/ path.

2012-09-14net: EAGAIN handling for net/socket.c TCPStefan Hajnoczi
Replace spinning send_all() with a proper non-blocking send. When the socket write buffer limit is reached, we should stop trying to send and wait for the socket to become writable again. Non-blocking TCP sockets can return in two different ways when the write buffer limit is reached: 1. ret = -1 and errno = EAGAIN/EWOULDBLOCK. No data has been written. 2. ret < total_size. Short write, only part of the message was transmitted. Handle both cases and keep track of how many bytes have been written in s->send_index. (This includes the 'length' header before the actual payload buffer.) Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

2012-09-14net: asynchronous send/receive infrastructure for net/socket.cStefan Hajnoczi
The net/socket.c net client is not truly asynchronous. This patch borrows the qemu_set_fd_handler2() code from net/tap.c as the basis for proper asynchronous send/receive. Only read packets from the socket when the peer is able to receive. This avoids needless queuing. Later patches implement asynchronous send.

2012-09-14net: broadcast hub packets if at least one port can receiveStefan Hajnoczi
In commit 60c07d933c66c4b30a83b7ccbc8a0cb3df1b2d0e ("net: fix qemu_can_send_packet logic") the "VLAN" broadcast behavior was changed to queue packets if any net client cannot receive. It turns out that this was not actually the right fix and just hides the real bug that hw/usb/dev-network.c:usbnet_receive() clobbers its receive buffer when called multiple times in a row. The commit also introduced a new bug that "VLAN" packets would not be sent if one of multiple net clients was down. The hw/usb/dev-network.c bug has since been fixed, so this patch reverts broadcast behavior to send packets as long as one net client can receive. Packets simply get queued for the net clients that are temporarily unable to receive. Reported-by: Roy.Li <rongqing.li@windriver.com> Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
2012-09-14net: do not report queued packets as sentStefan Hajnoczi
Net send functions have a return value where 0 means the packet has not been sent and will be queued. A non-zero value means the packet was sent or an error caused the packet to be dropped. This patch fixes two instances where packets are queued but we return their size. This causes callers to believe the packets were sent. When the caller uses the async send interface this creates a real problem because the callback will be invoked for a packet that the caller believed to be already sent. This bug can cause double-frees in the caller. Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
2012-09-14net: notify iothread after flushing queuePaolo Bonzini
virtio-net has code to flush the queue and notify the iothread whenever new receive buffers are added by the guest. That is fine, and indeed we need to do the same in all other drivers. However, notifying the iothread should be work for the network subsystem. And since we are at it we can add a little smartness: if some of the queued packets already could not be delivered, there is no need to notify the iothread.

2012-08-01net: add the support for -netdev socket, listenZhi Yong Wu
The -net socket,listen option does not work with the newer -netdev syntax: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2011-11/msg01508.html This patch makes it work now. For the case where one vlan has multiple listenning sockets, the patch will also provide the support. Supported syntax: 1.) -net socket,listen=127.0.0.1:1234,vlan=0 2.) -net socket,listen=127.0.0.1:1234,vlan=0 -net socket,listen=127.0.0.1:1235,vlan=0 3.) -netdev socket,listen=127.0.0.1:1234,id=socket0 Drop the NetSocketListenState struct and add a listen_fd field to NetSocketState. When a -netdev socket,listen= instance is created there will be a NetSocketState with fd=-1 and a valid listen_fd. The net_socket_accept() handler waits for listen_fd to become readable and then accepts the connection. When this state transition happens, we no longer monitor listen_fd for incoming connections...until the client disconnects again.

2012-07-23convert net_client_init() to OptsVisitorLaszlo Ersek
The net_client_init() prototype is kept intact. Based on "is_netdev", the QemuOpts-rooted QemuOpt-list is parsed as a Netdev or a NetLegacy. The original meat of net_client_init() is moved to and simplified in net_client_init1(): Fields not common between -net and -netdev are clearly separated. Getting the name for the init functions is cleaner: Netdev::id is mandatory, and all init functions handle a NULL NetLegacy::name. NetLegacy::vlan explicitly depends on -net (see below). Verifying the "type=" option for -netdev can be turned into a switch. Format validation with qemu_opts_validate() can be removed because the visitor covers it. Relatedly, the "net_client_types" array is reduced to an array of init functions that can be directly indexed by opts->kind. (Help text is available in the schema JSON.) The outermost negation in the condition around qemu_find_vlan() was flattened, because it expresses the dependent code's requirements more clearly. VLAN lookup is avoided if there's no init function to pass the VLAN to. Whenever the value of type=... is needed, we substitute NetClientOptionsKind_lookup[kind]. The individual init functions are not converted yet, thus the original QemuOpts instance is passed transparently. v1->v2: - NetLegacy::name is optional. Tracked it through all init functions: they all handle a NULL name. Updated commit message accordingly. v2->v3: - NetLegacy::id is allowed and takes precedence over NetLegacy::name.

<libutil.h> and <util.h> on *BSD (some have one, some another) were #included just for openpty() declaration. The only file where this function is actually used is qemu-char.c. In vl.c and net/tap-bsd.c, none of functions declared in libutil.h (login logout logwtmp timdomain openpty forkpty uu_lock realhostname fparseln and a few others depending on version) are used. Initially the code which is currently in qemu-char.c was in vl.c, it has been removed into separate file in commit 0e82f34d077dc2542 Fri Oct 31 18:44:40 2008, but the #includes were left in vl.c. So with vl.c, we just remove includes - libutil.h, util.h and pty.h (which declares only openpty() and forkpty()) from there. The code in net/tap-bsd.c, which come from net/tap.c, had this commit 5281d757efa6e40d74ce124be048b08d43887555 Author: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com> Date: Thu Oct 22 17:49:07 2009 +0100 net: split all the tap code out into net/tap.c Note this commit not only moved stuff out of net.c to net/tap.c, but also rewrote large portions of the tap code, and added these completely unnecessary #includes -- as usual, I question why such a misleading commit messages are allowed. Again, no functions defined in libutil.h or util.h on *BSD are used by neither net/tap.c nor net/tap-bsd.c. Removing them. And finally, the only real user for these #includes, qemu-char.c, which actually uses openpty(). There, the #ifdef logic is wrong. A GLIBC-based system has <pty.h>, even if it is a variant of *BSD. So __GLIBC__ should be checked first, and instead of trying to include <libutil.h> or <util.h>, we include <pty.h>. If it is not GLIBC-based, we check for variations between <*util.h> as before. This patch fixes build of qemu 1.1 on Debian/kFreebsd (well, one of the two problems): it is a distribution with a FreeBSD kernel, so it #defines at least __FreeBSD_kernel__, but since it is based on GLIBC, it has <pty.h>, but current version does not have neither <util.h> nor <libutil.h>, which the code tries to include 3 times but uses only once.

2012-05-01slirp: don't use "smb ports = 0" optionNikolaus Rath
The "smb ports = 0" option causes recent samba versions to crash. It was introduced in commit 157777ef3e with log message "Samba 3 support". However, a value of 0 has never been officially supported by smb and is also not necessary: if stdin is a socket, smb does not try to listen on any ports and uses just stdin. This is necessary to support inetd based operation (otherwise smbd would always fail when called from inetd, because inetd already listens on the SMB port). Since samba has supported inetd operation since pre-3.x, it should be safe to rely on this feature. I have tested it with Samba 3.6.4 -- communication works fine, and smbd is not listening on any ports. I suspect the "smb ports = 0" hack may have been introduced when someone tested the qemu generated samba config from the command line with "smbd -i" and found it to fail (because then stdin isn't a socket).

2012-02-01Add support for net bridgeCorey Bryant
The most common use of -net tap is to connect a tap device to a bridge. This requires the use of a script and running qemu as root in order to allocate a tap device to pass to the script. This model is great for portability and flexibility but it's incredibly difficult to eliminate the need to run qemu as root. The only really viable mechanism is to use tunctl to create a tap device, attach it to a bridge as root, and then hand that tap device to qemu. The problem with this mechanism is that it requires administrator intervention whenever a user wants to create a guest. By essentially writing a helper that implements the most common qemu-ifup script that can be safely given cap_net_admin, we can dramatically simplify things for non-privileged users. We still support existing -net tap options as a mechanism for advanced users and backwards compatibility. Currently, this is very Linux centric but there's really no reason why it couldn't be extended for other Unixes. A typical invocation would be similar to one of the following: qemu linux.img -net bridge -net nic,model=virtio qemu linux.img -net tap,helper="/usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper" -net nic,model=virtio qemu linux.img -netdev bridge,id=hn0 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hn0,id=nic1 qemu linux.img -netdev tap,helper="/usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper",id=hn0 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hn0,id=nic1 The default bridge that we attach to is br0. The thinking is that a distro could preconfigure such an interface to allow out-of-the-box bridged networking. Alternatively, if a user wants to use a different bridge, a typical invocation would be simliar to one of the following: qemu linux.img -net bridge,br=qemubr0 -net nic,model=virtio qemu linux.img -net tap,helper="/usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper --br=qemubr0" -net nic,model=virtio qemu linux.img -netdev bridge,br=qemubr0,id=hn0 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hn0,id=nic1 qemu linux.img -netdev tap,helper="/usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper --br=qemubr0",id=hn0 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hn0,id=nic1 Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Richa Marwaha <rmarwah@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Corey Bryant <coreyb@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
