2012-12-19net: reorganize headersPaolo Bonzini1-27/+0
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>

2012-12-17pci: update all users to look in pci/Michael S. Tsirkin1-1/+1
update all users so we can remove the makefile hack. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>
2012-03-16virtio-net: add DATA_VALID flagMichael S. Tsirkin1-0/+1
Add DATA_VALID flag from the Linux header, to keep us in sync with that. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>
2011-09-03Use new macro QEMU_PACKED for packed structuresStefan Weil1-1/+1
Most changes were made using these commands: git grep -la '__attribute__((packed))'|xargs perl -pi -e 's/__attribute__\(\(packed\)\)/QEMU_PACKED/' git grep -la '__attribute__ ((packed))'|xargs perl -pi -e 's/__attribute__ \(\(packed\)\)/QEMU_PACKED/' git grep -la '__attribute__((__packed__))'|xargs perl -pi -e 's/__attribute__\(\(__packed__\)\)/QEMU_PACKED/' git grep -la '__attribute__ ((__packed__))'|xargs perl -pi -e 's/__attribute__ \(\(__packed__\)\)/QEMU_PACKED/' git grep -la '__attribute((packed))'|xargs perl -pi -e 's/__attribute\(\(packed\)\)/QEMU_PACKED/' Whitespace in linux-user/syscall_defs.h was fixed manually to avoid warnings from scripts/checkpatch.pl. Manual changes were also applied to hw/pc.c. I did not fix indentation with tabs in block/vvfat.c. The patch will show 4 errors with scripts/checkpatch.pl.

2010-09-07virtio-net: Introduce a new bottom half packet TXAlex Williamson1-0/+1
Based on a patch from Mark McLoughlin, this patch introduces a new bottom half packet transmitter that avoids the latency imposed by the tx_timer approach. Rather than scheduling a timer when a TX packet comes in, schedule a bottom half to be run from the iothread. The bottom half handler first attempts to flush the queue with notification disabled (this is where we could race with a guest without txburst). If we flush a full burst, reschedule immediately. If we send short of a full burst, try to re-enable notification. To avoid a race with TXs that may have occurred, we must then flush again. If we find some packets to send, the guest it probably active, so we can reschedule again. tx_timer and tx_bh are mutually exclusive, so we can re-use the tx_waiting flag to indicate one or the other needs to be setup. This allows us to seamlessly migrate between timer and bh TX handling. The bottom half handler becomes the new default and we add a new tx= option to virtio-net-pci. Usage: -device virtio-net-pci,tx=timer # select timer mitigation vs "bh" Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>
2010-09-07virtio-net: Limit number of packets sent per TX flushAlex Williamson1-0/+8
If virtio_net_flush_tx() is called with notification disabled, we can race with the guest, processing packets at the same rate as they get produced. The trouble is that this means we have no guaranteed exit condition from the function and can spend minutes in there. Currently flush_tx is only called with notification on, which seems to limit us to one pass through the queue per call. An upcoming patch changes this. Also add an option to set this value on the command line as different workloads may wish to use different values. We can't necessarily support any random value, so this is a developer option: x-txburst= Usage: -device virtio-net-pci,x-txburst=64 # 64 packets per tx flush One pass through the queue (256) seems to be a good default value for this, balancing latency with throughput. We use a signed int for x-txburst because 2^31 packets in a burst would take many, many minutes to process and it allows us to easily return a negative value value from virtio_net_flush_tx() to indicate a back-off or error condition.

2010-09-07virtio-net: Make tx_timer timeout configurableAlex Williamson1-0/+5
Add an option to make the TX mitigation timer adjustable as a device option. The 150us hard coded default used currently is reasonable, but may not be suitable for all workloads, this gives us a way to adjust it using a single binary. We can't support any random option though, so use the "x-" prefix to indicate this is a developer option. Usage: -device virtio-net-pci,x-txtimer=500000,... # .5ms timeout Signed-off-by: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>

2010-01-12virtio-net: mac property is mandatoryMichael S. Tsirkin1-1/+0
Mac feature bit isn't going to work as all network cards already have a 'mac' property to set the mac address. Remove it from mask and add in get_features.

2010-01-11virtio: add features as qdev propertiesMichael S. Tsirkin1-0/+20
Add feature bits as properties to virtio. This makes it possible to e.g. define machine without indirect buffer support, which is required for 0.10 compatibility, or without hardware checksum support, which is required for 0.11 compatibility. Since default values for optional features are now set by qdev, get_features callback has been modified: it sets non-optional bits, and clears bits not supported by host. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2009-02-05qemu:virtio-net: Add VLAN filtering (Alex Williamson)aliguori1-0/+14
Use the control virtqueue to allow the guest to enable and manipulate a VLAN filter table. This allows us to drop more packets the guest doesn't want to see. We define a new VLAN class for the control virtqueue with commands ADD and DEL with usage defined in virtio-net.h.

2009-02-05qemu:virtio-net: Add additional MACs via a filter table (Alex Williamson)aliguori1-0/+22
Create a filter table and allow the guest to populate it with the MAC class control commands. We manage the size and usage of the filter table including enabling promiscuous and all-multi modes as necessary. The guest should therefore assume the table is infinite. Eventually this might allow us to bind directly to a hardware NIC and manipulate a physical MAC filter. The specifics of the TABLE_SET command are documented in virtio-net.h. Separate buffers in the same command are used for unicaste and multicast addresses for priority and sychronization. With this we can export the VIRTIO_NET_F_CTRL_RX feature bit.

2009-02-05qemu:virtio-net: Add promiscuous and all-multicast mode bits (Alex Williamson)aliguori1-0/+11
Add a new RX_MODE control virtqueue class with commands PROMISC and ALLMULTI and usage documented in virtio-net.h allowing the guest to manipulate packet receiving options. We don't export a feature for this until we also add the MAC filter table. Note, for compatibility with older guest drivers we need to default to promiscuous.

2009-02-05qemu:virtio-net: Add a virtqueue for control commands from the guest (Alex ↵aliguori1-0/+18
Williamson) This will be used for RX mode, MAC table, VLAN table control, etc... The control transaction consists of one or more "out" sg entries and one or more "in" sg entries. The first out entry contains a header defining the class and command. Additional out entries may provide data for the command. A response via the ack entry is required and the guest will typically be waiting for it.
