Sometimes it is useful to be able to change the MAC address of the interface for netback devices. For example, when using ebtables it may be useful to be able to distinguish traffic from different interfaces without depending on the interface name.

An SKB paged fragment can consist of a compound page with order > 0. However the netchannel protocol deals only in PAGE_SIZE frames. Handle this in netbk_gop_frag_copy and xen_netbk_count_skb_slots by iterating over the frames which make up the page.

Since Xen-4.2, hvm domains may have portions of their memory paged out. When a foreign domain (such as dom0) attempts to map these frames, the map will initially fail. The hypervisor returns a suitable errno, and kicks an asynchronous page-in operation carried out by a helper. The foreign domain is expected to retry the mapping operation until it eventually succeeds. The foreign domain is not put to sleep because itself could be the one running the pager assist (typical scenario for dom0). This patch adds support for this mechanism for backend drivers using grant mapping and copying operations. Specifically, this covers the blkback and gntdev drivers (which map foreign grants), and the netback driver (which copies foreign grants). * Add a retry method for grants that fail with GNTST_eagain (i.e. because the target foreign frame is paged out). * Insert hooks with appropriate wrappers in the aforementioned drivers. The retry loop is only invoked if the grant operation status is GNTST_eagain. It guarantees to leave a new status code different from GNTST_eagain. Any other status code results in identical code execution as before. The retry loop performs 256 attempts with increasing time intervals through a 32 second period. It uses msleep to yield while waiting for the next retry. V2 after feedback from David Vrabel: * Explicit MAX_DELAY instead of wrap-around delay into zero * Abstract GNTST_eagain check into core grant table code for netback module. V3 after feedback from Ian Campbell: * Add placeholder in array of grant table error descriptions for unrelated error code we jump over. * Eliminate single map and retry macro in favor of a generic batch flavor. * Some renaming. * Bury most implementation in grant_table.c, cleaner interface. V4 rebased on top of sync of Xen grant table interface headers.

After SKB is queued into tx_queue, it will be freed if request_gop is NULL. However, no dequeue action is called in this situation, it is likely that tx_queue constains freed SKB. This patch should fix this issue, and it is based on 3.5.0-rc4+. This issue is found through code inspection, no bug is seen with it currently. I run netperf test for several hours, and no network regression was found. Signed-off-by: NAnnie Li <annie.li@oracle.com> Acked-by: NIan Campbell <ian.campbell@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

When calculating the number of slots required for a packet header, the code was reserving too many slots if the header crossed a page boundary. Since netbk_gop_skb copies the header to the start of the page, the count of slots required for the header should be based solely on the header size. This problem is easy to reproduce if a VIF is bridged to a USB 3G modem device as the skb->data value always starts near the end of the first page.

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. v2: Restore DRV_NAME for the driver name in xen-pciback.

If a VM is saved and restored (or migrated) the netback driver will no longer process any Tx packets from the frontend. xenvif_up() does not schedule the processing of any pending Tx requests from the front end because the carrier is off. Without this initial kick the frontend just adds Tx requests to the ring without raising an event (until the ring is full). This was caused by 47103041 (net: xen-netback: convert to hw_features) which reordered the calls to xenvif_up() and netif_carrier_on() in xenvif_connect().

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.
