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.

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.

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.

__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.

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: NJason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Acked-by: NMichael S.

Currently, the refill path for RX buffers will always allocate the buffers as GFP_ATOMIC, even if we are in process context.

Michael S. Tsirkin also noticed that we could run the refill work multiple CPUs: if we kick off a refill on one CPU and then on another, they would both manipulate the queue at the same time (they use napi_disable to avoid racing against the receive handler itself). Tejun points out that this is what the WQ_NON_REENTRANT flag is for, and that there is a convenient system kthread we can use.

Michael S. Tsirkin noticed that we could run the refill work after ndo_close, which can re-enable napi - we don't disable it until virtnet_remove. This is clearly wrong, so move the workqueue control to ndo_open and ndo_stop (aka. virtnet_open and virtnet_close). One subtle point: virtnet_probe() could simply fail if it couldn't allocate a receive buffer, but that's less polite in virtnet_open() so we schedule a refill as we do in the normal receive path if we run out of memory.

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. Signed-off-by: NJason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Acked-by: NMichael S.
