Michael S. Tsirkin 6ee57bcc1e virtio-net: correct capacity math on ring full
Capacity math on ring full is wrong: we are
looking at num_sg but that might be optimistic
because of indirect buffer use.

The implementation also penalizes fast path
with extra memory accesses for the benefit of
ring full condition handling which is slow path.

It's easy to query ring capacity so let's do just that.

This change also makes it easier to move vnet header
for tx around as follow-up patch does.

Jason Wang 986a4f4d45 virtio_net: multiqueue support
This patch adds the multiqueue (VIRTIO_NET_F_MQ) support to virtio_net
driver. VIRTIO_NET_F_MQ capable device could allow the driver to do packet
transmission and reception through multiple queue pairs and does the packet
steering to get better performance. By default, one one queue pair is used, user
could change the number of queue pairs by ethtool in the next patch.

When multiple queue pairs is used and the number of queue pairs is equal to the
number of vcpus. Driver does the following optimizations to implement per-cpu
virt queue pairs:

- select the txq based on the smp processor id.
- smp affinity hint to the cpu that owns the queue pairs.

This could be used with the flow steering support of the device to guarantee the
packets of a single flow is handled by the same cpu.

Linus Torvalds aecdc33e11 Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net-next
Pull networking changes from David Miller:

 1) GRE now works over ipv6, from Dmitry Kozlov.

 2) Make SCTP more network namespace aware, from Eric Biederman.

 3) TEAM driver now works with non-ethernet devices, from Jiri Pirko.

 4) Make openvswitch network namespace aware, from Pravin B Shelar.

 5) IPV6 NAT implementation, from Patrick McHardy.

 6) Server side support for TCP Fast Open, from Jerry Chu and others.

 7) Packet BPF filter supports MOD and XOR, from Eric Dumazet and Daniel
    Borkmann.

 8) Increate the loopback default MTU to 64K, from Eric Dumazet.

 9) Use a per-task rather than per-socket page fragment allocator for
    outgoing networking traffic.  This benefits processes that have very
    many mostly idle sockets, which is quite common.

    From Eric Dumazet.

10) Use up to 32K for page fragment allocations, with fallbacks to
    smaller sizes when higher order page allocations fail.  Benefits are
    a) less segments for driver to process b) less calls to page
    allocator c) less waste of space.

    From Eric Dumazet.

11) Allow GRO to be used on GRE tunnels, from Eric Dumazet.

12) VXLAN device driver, one way to handle VLAN issues such as the
    limitation of 4096 VLAN IDs yet still have some level of isolation.
    From Stephen Hemminger.

13) As usual there is a large boatload of driver changes, with the scale
    perhaps tilted towards the wireless side this time around.

Fix up various fairly trivial conflicts, mostly caused by the user
namespace changes.

Michael S. Tsirkin ec13ee8014 virtio_net: invoke softirqs after __napi_schedule
__napi_schedule might raise softirq but nothing
causes do_softirq to trigger, so it does not in fact
run. As a result,
the error message "NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08"
sometimes occurs during boot of a KVM guest when the network service is
started and we are oom:

  ...
  Bringing up loopback interface:  [  OK  ]
  Bringing up interface eth0:
  Determining IP information for eth0...NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08
   done.
  [  OK  ]
  ...

Further, receive queue processing might get delayed
indefinitely until some interrupt triggers:
virtio_net expected napi to be run immediately.

One way to cause do_softirq to be executed is by
invoking local_bh_enable(). As __napi_schedule is
normally called from bh or irq context, this
seems to make sense: disable bh before __napi_schedule
and enable afterwards.

In fact it's a very complicated way of calling do_softirq(),
and works since this function is only used when we are not
in interrupt context.  It's not hot at all, in any ideal scenario.

Jason Wang 586d17c5a0 virtio-net: send gratuitous packets when needed
As hypervior does not have the knowledge of guest network configuration, it's
better to ask guest to send gratuitous packets when needed.

This patch implements VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_ANNOUNCE feature: hypervisor would
notice the guest when it thinks it's time for guest to announce the link
presnece. Guest tests VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE bit during config change interrupt
and woule send gratuitous packets through netif_notify_peers() and ack the
notification through ctrl vq.

We need to make sure the atomicy of read and ack in guest otherwise we may ack
more times than being notified. This is done through handling the whole config
change interrupt in an non-reentrant workqueue.

One subtle point: virtnet_probe() could simply fail if it couldn't

we schedule a refill as we do in the normal receive path if we run out

Jason Wang 10a8d94a95 virtio_net: introduce VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_DATA_VALID
There's no need for the guest to validate the checksum if it have been
validated by host nics. So this patch introduces a new flag -
VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_DATA_VALID which is used to bypass the checksum
examing in guest. The backend (tap/macvtap) may set this flag when
met skbs with CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY to save cpu utilization.

No feature negotiation is needed as old driver just ignore this flag.

Iperf shows 12%-30% performance improvement for UDP traffic. For TCP,
when gro is on no difference as it produces skb with partial
checksum. But when gro is disabled, 20% or even higher improvement
could be measured by netperf.

Ben Hutchings 0141480205 ethtool: Provide a default implementation of ethtool_ops::get_drvinfo
The driver name and bus address for a net_device can normally be found
through the driver model now.  Instead of requiring drivers to provide
this information redundantly through the ethtool_ops::get_drvinfo
operation, use the driver model to do so if the driver does not define
the operation.  Since ETHTOOL_GDRVINFO no longer requires the driver
to implement any operations, do not require net_device::ethtool_ops to
be set either.

Remove implementations of get_drvinfo and ethtool_ops that provide
only this information.

Rusty Russell a767bde4d4 virtio_net: implements ethtool_ops.get_drvinfo
I often use "ethtool -i" command to check what driver controls the
ehternet device.  But because current virtio_net driver doesn't
support "ethtool -i", it becomes the following:

        # ethtool -i eth3
        Cannot get driver information: Operation not supported

This patch simply adds the "ethtool -i" support. The following is the
result when using the virtio_net driver with my patch applied to.

        # ethtool -i eth3
        driver: virtio_net
        version: N/A
        firmware-version: N/A
        bus-info: virtio0

Personally, "-i" is one of the most frequently-used option, and most
network drivers support "ethtool -i", so I think virtio_net also
should do.

Tejun Heo 5a0e3ad6af include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

  http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
  only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
  gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
  blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
  to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
  core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
  alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
  doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
  because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
  an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
  file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
   over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
   and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
   files.

2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
   some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
   embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
   inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
   from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
   e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
   APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
   editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
   files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
   inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
   wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
   slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
   necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
   were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
   distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
   more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
   build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

   * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
   * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
   * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
   * s390 SMP allmodconfig
   * alpha SMP allmodconfig
   * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
   a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Shirley Ma 9ab86bbcf8 virtio_net: Defer skb allocation in receive path Date: Wed, 13 Jan 2010 12:53:38 -0800
virtio_net receives packets from its pre-allocated vring buffers, then it
delivers these packets to upper layer protocols as skb buffs. So it's not
necessary to pre-allocate skb for each mergable buffer, then frees extra
skbs when buffers are merged into a large packet. This patch has deferred
skb allocation in receiving packets for both big packets and mergeable buffers
to reduce skb pre-allocations and skb frees. It frees unused buffers by calling
detach_unused_buf in vring, so recv skb queue is not needed.

Herbert Xu 39d3215774 virtio_net: Make delayed refill more reliable
I have seen RX stalls on a machine that experienced a suspected
OOM.  After the stall, the RX buffer is empty on the guest side
and there are exactly 16 entries available on the host side.  As
the number of entries is less than that required by a maximal
skb, the host cannot proceed.

The guest did not have a refill job scheduled.

My diagnosis is that an OOM had occured, with the delayed refill
job scheduled.  The job was able to allocate at least one skb, but
not enough to overcome the minimum required by the host to proceed.

As the refill job would only reschedule itself if it failed completely
to allocate any skbs, this would lead to an RX stall.

The following patch removes this stall possibility by always
rescheduling the refill job until the ring is totally refilled.

Testing has shown that the RX stall no longer occurs whereas
previously it would occur within a day.

Uwe Kleine-König 22402529df virtio_net: rename driver struct to please modpost
Commit

	3d1285b (move virtnet_remove to .devexit.text)

introduced the first reference to __devexit in struct virtio_driver
virtio_net which upset modpost ("Section mismatch in reference from the
variable virtio_net to the function .devexit.text:virtnet_remove()").

Fix this by renaming virtio_net to virtio_net_driver.

Michael S. Tsirkin 03f191bab7 virtio-net: fix data corruption with OOM
virtio net used to unlink skbs from send queues on error,
but ever since 48925e372f
we do not do this. This causes guest data corruption and crashes
with vhost since net core can requeue the skb or free it without
it being taken off the list.

This patch fixes this by queueing the skb after successful
transmit.

Christian Borntraeger e95646c3ec virtio: let header files include virtio_ids.h
Rusty,

commit 3ca4f5ca73
    virtio: add virtio IDs file
moved all device IDs into a single file. While the change itself is
a very good one, it can break userspace applications. For example
if a userspace tool wanted to get the ID of virtio_net it used to
include virtio_net.h. This does no longer work, since virtio_net.h
does not include virtio_ids.h.
This patch moves all "#include <linux/virtio_ids.h>" from the C
files into the header files, making the header files compatible with
the old ones.

In addition, this patch exports virtio_ids.h to userspace.

Rusty Russell 48925e372f virtio_net: avoid (most) NETDEV_TX_BUSY by stopping queue early.
Now we can tell the theoretical capacity remaining in the output
queue, virtio_net can waste entries by stopping the queue early.

It doesn't work in the case of indirect buffers and kmalloc failure,
but that's rare (we could drop the packet in that case, but other
drivers return TX_BUSY for similar reasons).

For the record, I think this patch reflects poorly on the linux
network API.

Rusty Russell b0c39dbdc2 virtio_net: don't free buffers in xmit ring
The virtio_net driver is complicated by the two methods of freeing old
xmit buffers (in addition to freeing old ones at the start of the xmit
path).

The original code used a 1/10 second timer attached to xmit_free(),
reset on every xmit.  Before we orphaned skbs on xmit, the
transmitting userspace could block with a full socket until the timer
fired, the skb destructor was called, and they were re-woken.

So we added the VIRTIO_F_NOTIFY_ON_EMPTY feature: supporting devices
send an interrupt (even if normally suppressed) on an empty xmit ring
which makes us schedule xmit_tasklet().  This was a benchmark win.

Unfortunately, VIRTIO_F_NOTIFY_ON_EMPTY makes quite a lot of work: a
host which is faster than the guest will fire the interrupt every xmit
packet (slowing the guest down further).  Attempting mitigation in the
host adds overhead of userspace timers (possibly with the additional
pain of signals), and risks increasing latency anyway if you get it
wrong.

In practice, this effect was masked by benchmarks which take advantage
of GSO (with its inherent transmit batching), but it's still there.

Now we orphan xmitted skbs, the pressure is off: remove both paths and
no longer request VIRTIO_F_NOTIFY_ON_EMPTY.  Note that the current
QEMU will notify us even if we don't negotiate this feature (legal,
but suboptimal); a patch is outstanding to improve that.

Move the skb_orphan/nf_reset to after we've done the send and notified
the other end, for a slight optimization.

Rusty Russell 8958f574db virtio_net: return NETDEV_TX_BUSY instead of queueing an extra skb.
This effectively reverts 99ffc696d1
"virtio: wean net driver off NETDEV_TX_BUSY".

The complexity of queuing an skb (setting a tasklet to re-xmit) is
questionable, especially once we get rid of the other reason for the
tasklet in the next patch.

If the skb won't fit in the tx queue, just return NETDEV_TX_BUSY.
This is frowned upon, so a followup patch uses a more complex solution.

Rusty Russell 2b5bbe3b8b virtio_net: skb_orphan() and nf_reset() in xmit path.
The complex transmit free logic was introduced to avoid hangs on
removing the ip_conntrack module and also because drivers aren't
generally supposed to keep stale skbs for unbounded times.

After some debate, it was decided that while doing skb_orphan()
generally is a rat's nest, we can do it in this driver.  Following
patches take advantage of this.

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.

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.

Pantelis Koukousoulas 4783256ef9 virtio_net: Make virtio_net support carrier detection
Impact: Make NetworkManager work with virtio_net

For now the semantics are simple: There is always carrier.

This allows a seamless experience with e.g., qemu/kvm
where NetworkManager just configures and sets up
everything automagically.

If/when a generally agreed-upon way to control
carrier on/off in the emulator/hypervisor level
emerges, it will be trivial to extend the driver
to support that too, but for now even this 2-liner
makes user experience that much better.

Alex Williamson 2a41f71d3b virtio_net: Add a virtqueue for outbound control commands
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

Mark McLoughlin 3f2c31d903 virtio_net: VIRTIO_NET_F_MSG_RXBUF (imprive rcv buffer allocation)
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.

Since all of the netdev->priv is only for read.

Rusty Russell fb6813f480 virtio: Recycle unused recv buffer pages for large skbs in net driver
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.

Subject: [PATCH] virtio_net: Delay dropping tx skbs

Currently we drop the skb in start_xmit() if we have a
queued buffer and fail to transmit it.

However, if we delay dropping it until we've stopped the
queue and enabled the tx notification callback, then there
is a chance space might become available for it.

Mark McLoughlin 14c998f034 virtio: virtio_net free transmit skbs in a timer
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.

Since eth_type_trans() skb_pull()s the ethernet header,
skb_partial_csum_set() should be called before
eth_type_trans().

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

Rusty Russell 5539ae9613 virtio: finer-grained features for virtio_net
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!).

David S. Miller 21f644f3ea [NET]: Undo code bloat in hot paths due to print_mac().
If print_mac() is used inside of a pr_debug() the compiler
can't see that the call is redundant so still performs it
even of pr_debug() ends up being a nop.

So don't use print_mac() in such cases in hot code paths,
use MAC_FMT et al. instead.

As noted by Joe Perches, pr_debug() could be modified to
handle this better, but that is a change to an interface
used by the entire kernel and thus needs to be validated
carefully.  This here is thus the less risky fix for
2.6.25

The problem can be triggered with a high amount of host->guest traffic.
I think its the following race:

poll says netif_rx_complete
poll calls enable_cb
enable_cb opens the interrupt mask
a new packet comes, an interrupt is triggered----\
enable_cb sees that there is more work           |
enable_cb disables the interrupt                 |
       .                                         V
       .                            interrupt is delivered
       .                            skb_recv_done does atomic napi test, ok
 some waiting                       disable_cb is called->check fails->bang!
       .
poll would do napi check
poll would do disable_cb

The fix is to let enable_cb not disable the interrupt again, but expect the
caller to do the cleanup if it returns false. In that case, the interrupt is
only disabled, if the napi test_set_bit was successful.

    <4> <0>Kernel panic - not syncing: Fatal exception in interrupt
    <4>

After looking at the code and the dump I think the following scenario
happened: Ifup was running on cpu2 and the interrupt arrived on cpu0.
Now virtnet_open on cpu 2 managed to execute napi_enable and disable_cb
but did not execute rx_schedule. Meanwhile on cpu 0 skb_recv_done was
called by vring_interrupt, executed netif_rx_schedule_prep, which
succeeded and therefore called disable_cb. This triggered the BUG_ON,
as interrupts were already disabled by cpu 2.

I think the proper solution is to make the call to disable_cb depend on
the atomic update of NAPI_STATE_SCHED by using netif_rx_schedule_prep
in the same way as skb_recv_done.

Rusty Russell 6e5aa7efb2 virtio: reset function
A reset function solves three problems:

1) It allows us to renegotiate features, eg. if we want to upgrade a
   guest driver without rebooting the guest.

2) It gives us a clean way of shutting down virtqueues: after a reset,
   we know that the buffers won't be used by the host, and

3) It helps the guest recover from messed-up drivers.

So we remove the ->shutdown hook, and the only way we now remove
feature bits is via reset.

We leave it to the driver to do the reset before it deletes queues:
the balloon driver, for example, needs to chat to the host in its
remove function.
