2008-02-04virtio_blk: Dont waste major numbersChristian Borntraeger
Rusty, currently virtio_blk uses one major number per device. While this works quite well on most systems it is wasteful and will exhaust major numbers on larger installations. This patch allocates a major number on init and will use 16 minor numbers for each disk. That will allow ~64k virtio_blk disks.

2008-02-04virtio_blk: provide getgeoChristian Borntraeger
Rusty, I currently try to make my guest boot from an virtio root device without having an external kernel. Some of the tools that I tried expect HDIO_GETGEO to work. The most interesting value is likely the geo.start value to get the offset of a partition. This value is filled by block/ioctl.c if fops->getgeo is set. This patch also fills in some standard values for heads, sectors and cylinders. Makes sense?

2008-02-04virtio: free transmit skbs when notified, not on next xmit.Rusty Russell
This fixes a potential dangling xmit problem. We also suppress refill interrupts until we need them. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-02-04virtio: flush buffers on openRusty Russell
Fix bug found by Christian Borntraeger: if the other side fills all the registered network buffers before we enable NAPI, we will never get an interrupt. The simplest fix is to process the input queue once on open. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-02-04virtnet: remove double ether_setupChristian Borntraeger
Hello Rusty, virtnet_probe already calls alloc_etherdev, which calls ether_setup. There is no need to do that again. Signed-off-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

2008-02-04virtio: Put the virtio under the virtualization menuAnthony Liguori
This patch moves virtio under the virtualization menu and changes virtio devices to not claim to only be for lguest. Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-02-04virtio: handle interrupts after callbacks turned offRusty Russell
Anthony Liguori found double interrupt suppression in the virtio_net driver, triggered by two skb_recv_done's in a row. This is because virtio_ring's interrupt suppression is a best-effort optimization: it contains no synchronization so the host can miss it and still send interrupts. But it's certainly nicer for virtio users if calling disable_cb actually disables callbacks, so we check for the race in the interrupt routine. Note: SMP guests might require syncronization here, but since disable_cb is actually called from interrupt context, there has to be some form of synchronization before the next same interrupt handler is called (Linux guarantees that the same device's irq handler will never run simultanously on multiple CPUs). Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-02-04virtio: reset functionRusty Russell
A reset function solves three problems: 1) It allows us to renegotiate features, eg. if we want to upgrade a guest driver without rebooting the guest. 2) It gives us a clean way of shutting down virtqueues: after a reset, we know that the buffers won't be used by the host, and 3) It helps the guest recover from messed-up drivers. So we remove the ->shutdown hook, and the only way we now remove feature bits is via reset. We leave it to the driver to do the reset before it deletes queues: the balloon driver, for example, needs to chat to the host in its remove function. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-02-04virtio: populate network rings in the probe routine, not openRusty Russell
Since we want to reset the device to remove them, this is simpler (device is reset for us on driver remove). Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-02-04virtio: Tweak virtio_net definesRusty Russell
1) Turn GSO on virtio net into an all-or-nothing (keep checksumming separate). Having multiple bits is a pain: if you can't support something you should handle it in software, which is still a performance win. 2) Make VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_ECN a flag in the header, so it can apply to IPv6 or v4. 3) Rename VIRTIO_NET_F_NO_CSUM to VIRTIO_NET_F_CSUM (ie. means we do checksumming). 4) Add csum and gso params to virtio_net to allow more testing. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-02-04virtio: Net header needs hdr_lenRusty Russell
It's far easier to deal with packets if we don't have to parse the packet to figure out the header length to know how much to pull into the skb data. Add the field to the virtio_net_hdr struct (and fix the spaces that somehow crept in there). Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-02-04virtio: remove unused id field from struct virtio_blk_outhdrRusty Russell
This field has been unused since an older version of virtio. Remove it now before we freeze the ABI. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au.
2008-02-04virtio: clarify NO_NOTIFY flag usageRusty Russell
The other side (host) can set the NO_NOTIFY flag as an optimization, to say "no need to kick me when you add things". Make it clear that this is advisory only; especially that we should always notify when the ring is full. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-02-04virtio: Fix vring_init/vring_size to take unsigned longAnthony Liguori
Using unsigned int resulted in silent truncation of the upper 32-bit on x86_64 resulting in an OOPS since the ring was being initialized wrong. Please reconsider my previous patch to just use PAGE_ALIGN(). Open coding this sort of stuff, no matter how simple it seems, is just asking for this sort of trouble.

2008-02-04virtio: configuration change callbackRusty Russell
Various drivers want to know when their configuration information changes: the balloon driver is the immediate user, but the network driver may one day have a "carrier" status as well. This introduces that callback (lguest doesn't use it yet). Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-02-04virtio: explicit enable_cb/disable_cb rather than callback return.Rusty Russell
It seems that virtio_net wants to disable callbacks (interrupts) before calling netif_rx_schedule(), so we can't use the return value to do so. Rename "restart" to "cb_enable" and introduce "cb_disable" hook: callback now returns void, rather than a boolean. Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>
2008-02-04virtio: simplify config mechanism.Rusty Russell
Previously we used a type/len pair within the config space, but this seems overkill. We now simply define a structure which represents the layout in the config space: the config space can now only be extended at the end. The main driver-visible changes: 1) We indicate what fields are present with an explicit feature bit. 2) Virtqueues are explicitly numbered, and not in the config space.

2008-02-03fix writev regression: pan hanging unkillable and un-straceableNick Piggin
Frederik Himpe reported an unkillable and un-straceable pan process. Zero length iovecs can go into an infinite loop in writev, because the iovec iterator does not always advance over them. The sequence required to trigger this is not trivial. I think it requires that a zero-length iovec be followed by a non-zero-length iovec which causes a pagefault in the atomic usercopy. This causes the writev code to drop back into single-segment copy mode, which then tries to copy the 0 bytes of the zero-length iovec; a zero length copy looks like a failure though, so it loops. Put a test into iov_iter_advance to catch zero-length iovecs. We could just put the test in the fallback path, but I feel it is more robust to skip over zero-length iovecs throughout the code (iovec iterator may be used in filesystems too, so it should be robust).
