* net: group address list and its countJiri Pirko2009-06-181-5/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch is inspired by patch recently posted by Johannes Berg. Basically what my patch does is to group list and a count of addresses into newly introduced structure netdev_hw_addr_list. This brings us two benefits: 1) struct net_device becames a bit nicer. 2) in the future there will be a possibility to operate with lists independently on netdevices (with exporting right functions). I wanted to introduce this patch before I'll post a multicast lists conversion.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Through a bug in the tun driver, I noticed that virtio_net is producing bogus hdr_len values. In particular, it only includes the IP header in the linear area, and excludes the entire TCP header. This causes the TCP header to be copied twice for each packet.

It also relaxes the locking. Original spinlock (still used for multicast addresses) is not needed and is no longer used for a protection of this list. All reading and writing takes place under rtnl (with no changes). I also removed a possibility to specify the length of the address while adding or deleting unicast address. It's always dev->addr_len. The convertion touched especially e1000 and ixgbe codes when the change is not so trivial.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Impact: Make NetworkManager work with virtio_net For now the semantics are simple: There is always carrier.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This will be used for RX mode, MAC filter table, VLAN filtering, 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. The last in entry provides a status response back from the command. Virtqueues typically run asynchronous, running a callback function when there's data in the channel. We can't readily make use of this in the command paths where we need to use this. Instead, we kick the virtqueue and spin. The kick causes an I/O write, triggering an immediate trap into the hypervisor.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 802.1Q expanded the maximum ethernet frame size by 4 bytes for the VLAN tag. We're not taking this into account in virtio_net, which means the buffers we provide to the backend in the virtqueue RX ring aren't big enough to hold a full MTU VLAN packet.

* virtio_net: VIRTIO_NET_F_MSG_RXBUF (imprive rcv buffer allocation)Mark McLoughlin2008-11-161-20/+153
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If segmentation offload is enabled by the host, we currently allocate maximum sized packet buffers and pass them to the host. This uses up 20 ring entries, allowing us to supply only 20 packet buffers to the host with a 256 entry ring. This is a huge overhead when receiving small packets, and is most keenly felt when receiving MTU sized packets from off-host. The VIRTIO_NET_F_MRG_RXBUF feature flag is set by hosts which support using receive buffers which are smaller than the maximum packet size. In order to transfer large packets to the guest, the host merges together multiple receive buffers to form a larger logical buffer. The number of merged buffers is returned to the guest via a field in the virtio_net_hdr. Make use of this support by supplying single page receive buffers to the host. On receive, we extract the virtio_net_hdr, copy 128 bytes of the payload to the skb's linear data buffer and adjust the fragment offset to point to the remaining data. This ensures proper alignment and allows us to not use any paged data for small packets. If the payload occupies multiple pages, we simply append those pages as fragments and free the associated skbs. This scheme allows us to be efficient in our use of ring entries while still supporting large packets. Benchmarking using netperf from an external machine to a guest over a 10Gb/s network shows a 100% improvement from ~1Gb/s to ~2Gb/s. With a local host->guest benchmark with GSO disabled on the host side, throughput was seen to increase from 700Mb/s to 1.7Gb/s. Based on a patch from Herbert Xu.

* netdevice: safe convert to netdev_priv() #part-3Wang Chen2008-11-121-1/+2

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we hack the virtio_net driver to always allocate full-sized (64k+) skbuffs, the driver slows down (lguest numbers): Time to receive 1GB (small buffers): 10.85 seconds Time to receive 1GB (64k+ buffers): 24.75 seconds Of course, large buffers use up more space in the ring, so we increase that from 128 to 2048: Time to receive 1GB (64k+ buffers, 2k ring): 16.61 seconds If we recycle pages rather than using alloc_page/free_page: Time to receive 1GB (64k+ buffers, 2k ring, recycle pages): 10.81 seconds This demonstrates that with efficient allocation, we don't need to have a separate "small buffer" queue.

* virtio: virtio_net free transmit skbs in a timerMark McLoughlin2008-06-101-2/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | virtio_net currently only frees old transmit skbs just before queueing new ones. If the queue is full, it then enables interrupts and waits for notification that more work has been performed. However, a side-effect of this scheme is that there are always xmit skbs left dangling when no new packets are sent, against the Documentation/networking/driver.txt guideline: "... it is not allowed for your TX mitigation scheme to let TX packets "hang out" in the TX ring unreclaimed forever if no new TX packets are sent." Add a timer to ensure that any time we queue new TX skbs, we will shortly free them again. This fixes an easily reproduced hang at shutdown where iptables attempts to unload nf_conntrack and nf_conntrack waits for an skb it is tracking to be freed, but virtio_net never frees it.

| | | | | | | | | | Because we cache the last failed-to-xmit packet, if there are no packets queued behind that one we may never send it (reproduced here as TCP stalls, "cured" by an outgoing ping).

* virtio: fix virtio_net xmit of freed skb bugRusty Russell2008-05-301-5/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | If we fail to transmit a packet, we assume the queue is full and put the skb into last_xmit_skb. However, if more space frees up before we xmit it, we loop, and the result can be transmitting the same skb twice. Fix is simple: set skb to NULL if we've used it in some way, and check before sending. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jgarzik@redhat.com>

* virtio: explicit advertisement of driver featuresRusty Russell2008-05-021-7/+15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A recent proposed feature addition to the virtio block driver revealed some flaws in the API: in particular, we assume that feature negotiation is complete once a driver's probe function returns. There is nothing in the API to require this, however, and even I didn't notice when it was violated. So instead, we require the driver to specify what features it supports in a table, we can then move the feature negotiation into the virtio core. The intersection of device and driver features are presented in a new 'features' bitmap in the struct virtio_device. Note that this highlights the difference between Linux unsigned-long bitmaps where each unsigned long is in native endian, and a straight-forward little-endian array of bytes. Drivers can still remove feature bits in their probe routine if they really have to. API changes: - dev->config->feature() no longer gets and acks a feature. - drivers should advertise their features in the 'feature_table' field - use virtio_has_feature() for extra sanity when checking feature bits Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
* virtio: finer-grained features for virtio_netRusty Russell2008-05-021-0/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | So, we previously had a 'VIRTIO_NET_F_GSO' bit which meant that 'the host can handle csum offload, and any TSO (v4&v6 incl ECN) or UFO packets you might want to send. I thought this was good enough for Linux, but it actually isn't, since we don't do UFO in software. So, add separate feature bits for what the host can handle. Add equivalent ones for the guest to say what it can handle, because LRO is coming too (thanks Herbert!). Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
* virtio: wean net driver off NETDEV_TX_BUSYRusty Russell2008-05-021-20/+43
| | | | | | | | Herbert tells me that returning NETDEV_TX_BUSY from hard_start_xmit is seen as a poor thing to do; we should cache the packet and stop the queue. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Acked-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au>
* virtio: fix scatterlist sizing in net driver.Rusty Russell2008-05-021-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | Herbert Xu points out (within another patch) that my scatterlists are too short: one entry for the gso header, one for the skb->data, and MAX_SKB_FRAGS for all the fragments. Fix both xmit and recv sides (recv currently unused, coming in later patch). Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
