2013-07-27virtio-net: put virtio net header inline with dataMichael S. Tsirkin1-8/+34
For small packets we can simplify xmit processing by linearizing buffers with the header: most packets seem to have enough head room we can use for this purpose. Since existing hypervisors require that header is the first s/g element, we need a feature bit for this. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2013-07-09virtio_net: fix race in RX VQ processingMichael S. Tsirkin1-2/+3
virtio net called virtqueue_enable_cq on RX path after napi_complete, so with NAPI_STATE_SCHED clear - outside the implicit napi lock. This violates the requirement to synchronize virtqueue_enable_cq wrt virtqueue_add_buf. In particular, used event can move backwards, causing us to lose interrupts. In a debug build, this can trigger panic within START_USE. Jason Wang reports that he can trigger the races artificially, by adding udelay() in virtqueue_enable_cb() after virtio_mb(). However, we must call napi_complete to clear NAPI_STATE_SCHED before polling the virtqueue for used buffers, otherwise napi_schedule_prep in a callback will fail, causing us to lose RX events. To fix, call virtqueue_enable_cb_prepare with NAPI_STATE_SCHED set (under napi lock), later call virtqueue_poll with NAPI_STATE_SCHED clear (outside the lock).

Commit 55257d72bd1c51f25106350f4983ec19f62ed1fa (virtio-net: fill only rx queues which are being used) tries to refill on demand when changing the number of channels by call try_refill_recv() directly, this may race: - the refill work who may do the refill in the same time - the try_refill_recv() called in bh since napi was not disabled Which may led guest complain during setting channels: virtio_net virtio0: input.1:id 0 is not a head!

2013-02-13net: Fix possible wrong checksum generation.Pravin B Shelar1-8/+5
Patch cef401de7be8c4e (net: fix possible wrong checksum generation) fixed wrong checksum calculation but it broke TSO by defining new GSO type but not a netdev feature for that type. net_gso_ok() would not allow hardware checksum/segmentation offload of such packets without the feature. Following patch fixes TSO and wrong checksum. This patch uses same logic that Eric Dumazet used. Patch introduces new flag SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG if at least one frag can be modified by the user. but SKBTX_SHARED_FRAG flag is kept in skb shared info tx_flags rather than gso_type. tx_flags is better compared to gso_type since we can have skb with shared frag without gso packet. It does not link SHARED_FRAG to GSO, So there is no need to define netdev feature for this. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2013-01-28net: fix possible wrong checksum generationEric Dumazet1-4/+8
Pravin Shelar mentioned that GSO could potentially generate wrong TX checksum if skb has fragments that are overwritten by the user between the checksum computation and transmit. He suggested to linearize skbs but this extra copy can be avoided for normal tcp skbs cooked by tcp_sendmsg(). This patch introduces a new SKB_GSO_SHARED_FRAG flag, set in skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type if at least one frag can be modified by the user. Typical sources of such possible overwrites are {vm}splice(), sendfile(), and macvtap/tun/virtio_net drivers.

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.

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.

2012-08-20workqueue: deprecate system_nrt[_freezable]_wqTejun Heo1-6/+6
system_nrt[_freezable]_wq are now spurious. Mark them deprecated and convert all users to system[_freezable]_wq. If you're cc'd and wondering what's going on: Now all workqueues are non-reentrant, so there's no reason to use system_nrt[_freezable]_wq. Please use system[_freezable]_wq instead. This patch doesn't make any functional difference.

2012-07-22net: fix race condition in several drivers when reading statsKevin Groeneveld1-4/+4
Fix race condition in several network drivers when reading stats on 32bit UP architectures. These drivers update their stats in a BH context and therefore should use u64_stats_fetch_begin_bh/u64_stats_fetch_retry_bh instead of u64_stats_fetch_begin/u64_stats_fetch_retry when reading the stats.

commit 3fa2a1df909 (virtio-net: per cpu 64 bit stats (v2)) added a race on 32bit arches. We must use separate syncp for rx and tx path as they can be run at the same time on different cpus.

2012-05-30virtio-net: remove useless disable on freezeMichael S. Tsirkin1-5/+0
disable_cb is just an optimization: it can not guarantee that there are no callbacks. In particular it doesn't have any effect when event index is on. Instead, detach, napi disable and reset on freeze ensure we don't run concurrently with a callback. Remove the useless calls so we get same behaviour with and without event index.

2012-05-17virtio_net: invoke softirqs after __napi_scheduleMichael S. Tsirkin1-0/+2
__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.

2012-04-15virtio-net: send gratuitous packets when neededJason Wang1-5/+59
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. Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Acked-by: Michael S.
