2021-10-09xen-netback: correct success/error reporting for the SKB-with-fraglist caseJan Beulich
[ Upstream commit 3ede7f84c7c21f93c5eac611d60eba3f2c765e0f ] When re-entering the main loop of xenvif_tx_check_gop() a 2nd time, the special considerations for the head of the SKB no longer apply. Don't mistakenly report ERROR to the frontend for the first entry in the list, even if - from all I can tell - this shouldn't matter much as the overall transmit will need to be considered failed anyway.

commit 23025393dbeb3b8b3b60ebfa724cdae384992e27 upstream. In order to reduce the chance for the system becoming unresponsive due to event storms triggered by a misbehaving netfront use the lateeoi irq binding for netback and unmask the event channel only just before going to sleep waiting for new events.

[ Upstream commit 99e87f56b48f490fb16b6e0f74691c1e664dea95 ] Zero-copy callback flag is not yet set on frag list skb at the moment xenvif_handle_frag_list() returns -ENOMEM. This eventually results in leaking grant ref mappings since xenvif_zerocopy_callback() is never called for these fragments. Those eventually build up and cause Xen to kill Dom0 as the slots get reused for new mappings: "d0v0 Attempt to implicitly unmap a granted PTE c010000329fce005" That behavior is observed under certain workloads where sudden spikes of page cache writes coexist with active atomic skb allocations from network traffic.

2015-09-09xen-netback: require fewer guest Rx slots when not using GSODavid Vrabel
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.

In drivers/vhost/net.c, Al Viro's iov_iter conversions in 'net-next' overlapped with an endainness fix for VHOST 1.0 in 'net'. In drivers/net/vxlan.c, vxlan_find_vni() added a 'flags' parameter in 'net-next' whereas in 'net' there was a bug fix to pass in the correct network namespace pointer in calls to this function.

2015-02-02xen-netback: stop the guest rx thread after a fatal errorDavid Vrabel
After commit e9d8b2c2968499c1f96563e6522c56958d5a1d0d (xen-netback: disable rogue vif in kthread context), a fatal (protocol) error would leave the guest Rx thread spinning, wasting CPU time. Commit ecf08d2dbb96d5a4b4bcc53a39e8d29cc8fef02e (xen-netback: reintroduce guest Rx stall detection) made this even worse by removing a cond_resched() from this path. Since a fatal error is non-recoverable, just allow the guest Rx thread to exit. This requires taking additional refs to the task so the thread exiting early is handled safely.

Use the foreign page flag in netback to get the domid and grant ref needed for the grant copy. This signficiantly simplifies the netback code and makes netback work with foreign pages from other backends (e.g., blkback). This allows blkback to use iSCSI disks provided by domUs running on the same host.

Ballooned pages are always used for grant maps which means the original frame does not need to be saved in page->index nor restored after the grant unmap. This allows the workaround in netback for the conflicting use of the (unionized) page->index and page->pfmemalloc to be removed.

2015-01-23xen-netback: always fully coalesce guest Rx packetsDavid Vrabel
Always fully coalesce guest Rx packets into the minimum number of ring slots. Reducing the number of slots per packet has significant performance benefits when receiving off-host traffic. Results from XenServer's performance benchmarks: Baseline Full coalesce Interhost VM receive 7.2 Gb/s 11 Gb/s Interhost aggregate 24 Gb/s 24 Gb/s Intrahost single stream 14 Gb/s 14 Gb/s Intrahost aggregate 34 Gb/s 34 Gb/s However, this can increase the number of grant ops per packet which decreases performance of backend (dom0) to VM traffic (by ~10%) /unless/ grant copy has been optimized for adjacent ops with the same source or destination (see "grant-table: defer releasing pages acquired in a grant copy"[1] expected in Xen 4.6).

2014-12-18xen-netback: support frontends without feature-rx-notify againDavid Vrabel
Commit bc96f648df1bbc2729abbb84513cf4f64273a1f1 (xen-netback: make feature-rx-notify mandatory) incorrectly assumed that there were no frontends in use that did not support this feature. But the frontend driver in MiniOS does not and since this is used by (qemu) stubdoms, these stopped working. Netback sort of works as-is in this mode except: - If there are no Rx requests and the internal Rx queue fills, only the drain timeout will wake the thread. The default drain timeout of 10 s would give unacceptable pauses. - If an Rx stall was detected and the internal Rx queue is drained, then the Rx thread would never wake. Handle these two cases (when feature-rx-notify is disabled) by: - Reducing the drain timeout to 30 ms. - Disabling Rx stall detection.

2014-11-06xen-netback: remove unconditional __pskb_pull_tail() in guest Tx pathMalcolm Crossley
Unconditionally pulling 128 bytes into the linear area is not required for: - security: Every protocol demux starts with pskb_may_pull() to pull frag data into the linear area, if necessary, before looking at headers. - performance: Netback has already grant copied up-to 128 bytes from the first slot of a packet into the linear area. The first slot normally contain all the IPv4/IPv6 and TCP/UDP headers. The unconditional pull would often copy frag data unnecessarily. This is a performance problem when running on a version of Xen where grant unmap avoids TLB flushes for pages which are not accessed. TLB flushes can now be avoided for > 99% of unmaps (it was 0% before). Grant unmap TLB flush avoidance will be available in a future version of Xen (probably 4.6).

2014-10-25xen-netback: reintroduce guest Rx stall detectionDavid Vrabel
If a frontend not receiving packets it is useful to detect this and turn off the carrier so packets are dropped early instead of being queued and drained when they expire. A to-guest queue is stalled if it doesn't have enough free slots for a an extended period of time (default 60 s). If at least one queue is stalled, the carrier is turned off (in the expectation that the other queues will soon stall as well). The carrier is only turned on once all queues are ready. When the frontend connects, all the queues start in the stalled state and only become ready once the frontend queues enough Rx requests.

2014-10-25xen-netback: fix unlimited guest Rx internal queue and carrier flappingDavid Vrabel
Netback needs to discard old to-guest skb's (guest Rx queue drain) and it needs detect guest Rx stalls (to disable the carrier so packets are discarded earlier), but the current implementation is very broken. 1. The check in hard_start_xmit of the slot availability did not consider the number of packets that were already in the guest Rx queue. This could allow the queue to grow without bound. The guest stops consuming packets and the ring was allowed to fill leaving S slot free. Netback queues a packet requiring more than S slots (ensuring that the ring stays with S slots free). Netback queue indefinately packets provided that then require S or fewer slots. 2. The Rx stall detection is not triggered in this case since the (host) Tx queue is not stopped. 3. If the Tx queue is stopped and a guest Rx interrupt occurs, netback will consider this an Rx purge event which may result in it taking the carrier down unnecessarily. It also considers a queue with only 1 slot free as unstalled (even though the next packet might not fit in this). The internal guest Rx queue is limited by a byte length (to 512 Kib, enough for half the ring). The (host) Tx queue is stopped and started based on this limit. This sets an upper bound on the amount of memory used by packets on the internal queue. This allows the estimatation of the number of slots for an skb to be removed (it wasn't a very good estimate anyway). Instead, the guest Rx thread just waits for enough free slots for a maximum sized packet. skbs queued on the internal queue have an 'expires' time (set to the current time plus the drain timeout). The guest Rx thread will detect when the skb at the head of the queue has expired and discard expired skbs. This sets a clear upper bound on the length of time an skb can be queued for. For a guest being destroyed the maximum time needed to wait for all the packets it sent to be dropped is still the drain timeout (10 s) since it will not be sending new packets. Rx stall detection is reintroduced in a later commit. Signed-off-by: David Vrabel <david.vrabel@citrix.com> Reviewed-by: Wei Liu <wei.liu2@citrix.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
