      virtio-net: Verify page list size before fitting into skb · e878d78b
      Sasha Levin 提交于
      This patch verifies that the length of a buffer stored in a linked list
      of pages is small enough to fit into a skb.
      
      If the size is larger than a max size of a skb, it means that we shouldn't
      go ahead building skbs anyway since we won't be able to send the buffer as
      the user requested.

      virtio_net: introduce VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_DATA_VALID · 10a8d94a
      Jason Wang 提交于
      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.

      virtio_net: implements ethtool_ops.get_drvinfo · a767bde4
      Rusty Russell 提交于
      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.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      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.

      virtio_net: Make delayed refill more reliable · 39d32157
      Herbert Xu 提交于
      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.

      virtio: let header files include virtio_ids.h · e95646c3
      Christian Borntraeger 提交于
      Rusty,
      
      commit 3ca4f5ca
          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.
