      xen-netback: Don't destroy the netdev until the vif is shut down · 279f438e
      Paul Durrant 提交于
      Without this patch, if a frontend cycles through states Closing
      and Closed (which Windows frontends need to do) then the netdev
      will be destroyed and requires re-invocation of hotplug scripts
      to restore state before the frontend can move to Connected. Thus
      when udev is not in use the backend gets stuck in InitWait.
      
      With this patch, the netdev is left alone whilst the backend is
      still online and is only de-registered and freed just prior to
      destroying the vif (which is also nicely symmetrical with the
      netdev allocation and registration being done during probe) so
      no re-invocation of hotplug scripts is required.

      xen-netback: enable user to unload netback module · b103f358
      Wei Liu 提交于
      This patch enables user to unload netback module, which is useful when user
      wants to upgrade to a newer netback module without rebooting the host.
      
      Netfront cannot handle netback removal event. As we cannot fix all possible
      frontends we add module get / put along with vif get / put to avoid
      mis-unloading of netback. To unload netback module, user needs to shutdown all
      VMs or migrate them to another host or unplug all vifs before hand.

      Xen: consolidate and simplify struct xenbus_driver instantiation · 73db144b
      Jan Beulich 提交于
      The 'name', 'owner', and 'mod_name' members are redundant with the
      identically named fields in the 'driver' sub-structure. Rather than
      switching each instance to specify these fields explicitly, introduce
      a macro to simplify this.
      
      Eliminate further redundancy by allowing the drvname argument to
      DEFINE_XENBUS_DRIVER() to be blank (in which case the first entry from
      the ID table will be used for .driver.name).
      
      Also eliminate the questionable xenbus_register_{back,front}end()
      wrappers - their sole remaining purpose was the checking of the
      'owner' field, proper setting of which shouldn't be an issue anymore
      when the macro gets used.

      xen network backend driver · f942dc25
      Ian Campbell 提交于
      netback is the host side counterpart to the frontend driver in
      drivers/net/xen-netfront.c. The PV protocol is also implemented by
      frontend drivers in other OSes too, such as the BSDs and even Windows.
      
      The patch is based on the driver from the xen.git pvops kernel tree but
      has been put through the checkpatch.pl wringer plus several manual
      cleanup passes and review iterations. The driver has been moved from
      drivers/xen/netback to drivers/net/xen-netback.
      
      One major change from xen.git is that the guest transmit path (i.e. what
      looks like receive to netback) has been significantly reworked to remove
      the dependency on the out of tree PageForeign page flag (a core kernel
      patch which enables a per page destructor callback on the final
      put_page). This page flag was used in order to implement a grant map
      based transmit path (where guest pages are mapped directly into SKB
      frags). Instead this version of netback uses grant copy operations into
      regular memory belonging to the backend domain. Reinstating the grant
      map functionality is something which I would like to revisit in the
      future.
      
      Note that this driver depends on 2e820f58 "xen/irq: implement
      bind_interdomain_evtchn_to_irqhandler for backend drivers" which is in
      linux next via the "xen-two" tree and is intended for the 2.6.39 merge
      window:
              git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git stable/backends
      this branch has only that single commit since 2.6.38-rc2 and is safe for
      cross merging into the net branch.
