2014-06-19Add the vhost-user netdev backend to the command lineNikolay Nikolaev1-0/+1
The supplied chardev id will be inspected for supported options. Only a socket backend, with a set path (i.e. a Unix socket) and optionally the server parameter set, will be allowed. Other options (nowait, telnet) will make the chardev unusable and the netdev will not be initialised. Additional checks for validity: - requires `-numa node,memdev=..` - requires `-device virtio-net-*` The `vhostforce` option is used to force vhost-net when we deal with non-MSIX guests.

2013-09-06net: Rename send_queue to incoming_queueJan Kiszka1-1/+1
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".

2013-02-27net: fix qemu_flush_queued_packets() in presence of a hubLuigi Rizzo1-0/+14
When frontend and backend are connected through a hub as below (showing only one direction), and the frontend (or in general, all output ports of the hub) cannot accept more traffic, the backend queues packets in queue-A. When the frontend (or in general, one output port) becomes ready again, quemu tries to flush packets from queue-B, which is unfortunately empty. e1000.0 <--[queue B]-- hub0port0(hub)hub0port1 <--[queue A]-- tap.0 To fix this i propose to introduce a new function net_hub_flush() which is called when trying to flush a queue connected to a hub.

2012-12-19net: reorganize headersPaolo Bonzini1-1/+1
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>

2012-10-08net: consolidate NetClientState header files into onePaolo Bonzini1-0/+1
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: broadcast hub packets if at least one port can receiveStefan Hajnoczi1-3/+3
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>

2012-08-01net: Rename VLANClientState to NetClientStateStefan Hajnoczi1-13/+13
The vlan feature is no longer part of net core. Rename VLANClientState to NetClientState because net clients are not explicitly associated with a vlan at all, instead they have a peer net client to which they are connected. This patch is a mechanical search-and-replace except for a few whitespace fixups where changing VLANClientState to NetClientState misaligned whitespace.

2012-08-01net: Convert qdev_prop_vlan to peer with hubZhi Yong Wu1-0/+25
Instead of using VLANState use net/hub.h to support the vlan qdev property. The vlan qdev property becomes an alias for the peer qdev property but is represented as a VLAN ID number. When a VLAN ID is selected the device will really peer with a hub port.

Checks can be performed to make sure that hubs have at least one NIC and one host device, warning the user if this is not the case. Configurations which do not meet this rule tend to be broken but just emit a warning. This patch preserves compatibility with the checks performed by net core on vlans.
