2016-10-13xen-netback: (re-)create a debugfs node for hash informationPaul Durrant
It is useful to be able to see the hash configuration when running tests. This patch adds a debugfs node for that purpose. The original version of this patch (commit c0c64c152389) was reverted due to build failures caused by a conflict with commit 0364a8824c02 ("xen-netback: switch to threaded irq for control ring"). This new version of the patch is nearly identical to the original, the only difference being that creation of the debugfs node is predicated on 'ctrl_irq' being non-zero rather then the now non-existent 'ctrl_task'.

2016-10-07xen-netback: make sure that hashes are not send to unaware frontendsPaul Durrant
In the case when a frontend only negotiates a single queue with xen- netback it is possible for a skbuff with a s/w hash to result in a hash extra_info segment being sent to the frontend even when no hash algorithm has been configured. (The ndo_select_queue() entry point makes sure the hash is not set if no algorithm is configured, but this entry point is not called when there is only a single queue). This can result in a frontend that is unable to handle extra_info segments being given such a segment, causing it to crash. This patch fixes the problem by clearing the hash in ndo_start_xmit() instead, which is clearly guaranteed to be called irrespective of the number of queues.

2016-10-06xen-netback: retire guest rx side prefix GSO featurePaul Durrant
As far as I am aware only very old Windows network frontends make use of this style of passing GSO packets from backend to frontend. These frontends can easily be replaced by the freely available Xen Project Windows PV network frontend, which uses the 'default' mechanism for passing GSO packets, which is also used by all Linux frontends. NOTE: Removal of this feature will not cause breakage in old Windows frontends. They simply will no longer receive GSO packets - the packets instead being fragmented in the backend.

In case of error during netback_probe() (e.g. an entry missing on the xenstore) netback_remove() is called on the new device, which will set the device backend state to XenbusStateClosed by calling set_backend_state(). However, the backend state wasn't initialized by netback_probe() at this point, which will cause and invalid transaction and set_backend_state() to BUG(). Initialize the backend state at the beginning of netback_probe() to XenbusStateInitialising, and create two new valid state transitions on set_backend_state(), from XenbusStateInitialising to XenbusStateClosed, and from XenbusStateInitialising to XenbusStateInitWait.

2016-05-20xen-netback: only deinitialized hash if it was initializedPaul Durrant
A domain with a frontend that does not implement a control ring has been seen to cause a crash during domain save. This was apparently because the call to xenvif_deinit_hash() in xenvif_disconnect_ctrl() is made regardless of whether a control ring was connected, and hence xenvif_hash_init() was called. This patch brings the call to xenvif_deinit_hash() in xenvif_disconnect_ctrl() inside the if clause that checks whether the control ring event channel was connected. This is sufficient to ensure it is only called if xenvif_init_hash() was called previously.

Commit f48da8b14d04ca87ffcffe68829afd45f926ec6a (xen-netback: fix unlimited guest Rx internal queue and carrier flapping) introduced a regression. The PV frontend in IPXE only places 4 requests on the guest Rx ring. Since netback required at least (MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 1) slots, IPXE could not receive any packets. a) If GSO is not enabled on the VIF, fewer guest Rx slots are required for the largest possible packet. Calculate the required slots based on the maximum GSO size or the MTU. This calculation of the number of required slots relies on 1650d5455bd2 (xen-netback: always fully coalesce guest Rx packets) which present in 4.0-rc1 and later. b) Reduce the Rx stall detection to checking for at least one available Rx request. This is fine since we're predominately concerned with detecting interfaces which are down and thus have zero available Rx requests.

2015-09-08xen: Use correctly the Xen memory terminologiesJulien Grall
Based on include/xen/mm.h [1], Linux is mistakenly using MFN when GFN is meant, I suspect this is because the first support for Xen was for PV. This resulted in some misimplementation of helpers on ARM and confused developers about the expected behavior. For instance, with pfn_to_mfn, we expect to get an MFN based on the name. Although, if we look at the implementation on x86, it's returning a GFN. For clarity and avoid new confusion, replace any reference to mfn with gfn in any helpers used by PV drivers. The x86 code will still keep some reference of pfn_to_mfn which may be used by all kind of guests No changes as been made in the hypercall field, even though they may be invalid, in order to keep the same as the defintion in xen repo. Note that page_to_mfn has been renamed to xen_page_to_gfn to avoid a name to close to the KVM function gfn_to_page. Take also the opportunity to simplify simple construction such as pfn_to_mfn(page_to_pfn(page)) into xen_page_to_gfn. More complex clean up will come in follow-up patches.

2015-09-02xen-netback: add support for multicast controlPaul Durrant
Xen's PV network protocol includes messages to add/remove ethernet multicast addresses to/from a filter list in the backend. This allows the frontend to request the backend only forward multicast packets which are of interest thus preventing unnecessary noise on the shared ring. The canonical netif header in git://xenbits.xen.org/xen.git specifies the message format (two more XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_TYPEs) so the minimal necessary changes have been pulled into include/xen/interface/io/netif.h. To prevent the frontend from extending the multicast filter list arbitrarily a limit (XEN_NETBK_MCAST_MAX) has been set to 64 entries. This limit is not specified by the protocol and so may change in future. If the limit is reached then the next XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_TYPE_MCAST_ADD sent by the frontend will be failed with NETIF_RSP_ERROR.

Waking the dealloc thread before decrementing inflight_packets is racy because it means the thread may go to sleep before inflight_packets is decremented. If kthread_stop() has already been called, the dealloc thread may wait forever with nothing to wake it. Instead, wake the thread only after decrementing inflight_packets.

2015-08-03xen-netback: Allocate fraglist early to avoid complex rollbackRoss Lagerwall
Determine if a fraglist is needed in the tx path, and allocate it if necessary before setting up the copy and map operations. Otherwise, undoing the copy and map operations is tricky. This fixes a use-after-free: if allocating the fraglist failed, the copy and map operations that had been set up were still executed, writing over the data area of a freed skb.

2015-06-23xen-netback: fix a BUG() during initializationPalik, Imre
Commit edafc132baac ("xen-netback: making the bandwidth limiter runtime settable") introduced the capability to change the bandwidth rate limit at runtime. But it also introduced a possible crashing bug. If netback receives two XenbusStateConnected without getting the hotplug-status watch firing in between, then it will try to register the watches for the rate limiter again. But this triggers a BUG() in the watch registration code. The fix modifies connect() to remove the possibly existing packet-rate watches before trying to install those watches. This behaviour is in line with how connect() deals with the hotplug-status watch.
