2012-06-04qapi: convert netdev_addLuiz Capitulino
This is not a full QAPI conversion, but an intermediate step. In essence, do_netdev_add() is split into three functions: 1. netdev_add(): performs the actual work. This function is fully converted to Error (thus, it's "qapi-friendly") 2. qmp_netdev_add(): the QMP front-end for netdev_add(). This is coded by hand and not auto-generated (gen=no in the schema). The reason for this it's a lot easier and simpler to with QemuOpts this way 3. hmp_netdev_add(): HMP front-end. This design was suggested by Paolo Bonzini.

Commit a7c36ee4920ea3acc227a0248dd161693f207357 added code for a net bridge and explicitly said that "this is very Linux centric". Indeed, compilation failed for w32, so the bridge code is now conditional. Hosts which don't support it can simply remove the definition of CONFIG_NET_BRIDGE.

2012-02-01Add support for net bridgeCorey Bryant
The most common use of -net tap is to connect a tap device to a bridge. This requires the use of a script and running qemu as root in order to allocate a tap device to pass to the script. This model is great for portability and flexibility but it's incredibly difficult to eliminate the need to run qemu as root. The only really viable mechanism is to use tunctl to create a tap device, attach it to a bridge as root, and then hand that tap device to qemu. The problem with this mechanism is that it requires administrator intervention whenever a user wants to create a guest. By essentially writing a helper that implements the most common qemu-ifup script that can be safely given cap_net_admin, we can dramatically simplify things for non-privileged users. We still support existing -net tap options as a mechanism for advanced users and backwards compatibility. Currently, this is very Linux centric but there's really no reason why it couldn't be extended for other Unixes. A typical invocation would be similar to one of the following: qemu linux.img -net bridge -net nic,model=virtio qemu linux.img -net tap,helper="/usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper" -net nic,model=virtio qemu linux.img -netdev bridge,id=hn0 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hn0,id=nic1 qemu linux.img -netdev tap,helper="/usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper",id=hn0 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hn0,id=nic1 The default bridge that we attach to is br0. The thinking is that a distro could preconfigure such an interface to allow out-of-the-box bridged networking. Alternatively, if a user wants to use a different bridge, a typical invocation would be simliar to one of the following: qemu linux.img -net bridge,br=qemubr0 -net nic,model=virtio qemu linux.img -net tap,helper="/usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper --br=qemubr0" -net nic,model=virtio qemu linux.img -netdev bridge,br=qemubr0,id=hn0 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hn0,id=nic1 qemu linux.img -netdev tap,helper="/usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper --br=qemubr0",id=hn0 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hn0,id=nic1 Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Richa Marwaha <rmarwah@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Corey Bryant <coreyb@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>

2011-07-19Fix netdev name lookup in -device, device_add, netdev_delMarkus Armbruster
qemu_find_netdev() looks up members of non_vlan_clients by name. It happily returns the first match. Trouble is the names need not be unique. non_vlan_clients contains host parts (netdevs) and guest parts (NICs). Netdevs have unique names: a netdev's name is a (mandatory) qemu_netdev_opts ID, and these are unique. NIC names are not unique. If a NIC has a qdev ID (which is unique), that's its name. Else, we make up a name. The made-up names are unique, but they can clash with qdev IDs. Even if NICs had unique names, they could still clash with netdev names. Callers of qemu_find_netdev(): * net_init_nic() wants a netdev. It happens to work because it runs before NICs get added to non_vlan_clients. * do_netdev_del() wants a netdev. If it gets a NIC, it complains and fails. Bug: a netdev with the same name that comes later in non_vlan_clients can't be deleted: $ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -vnc :0 -S -monitor stdio -netdev user,id=hostnet0 -device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hostnet0,id=virtio1 [...] (qemu) netdev_add user,id=virtio1 (qemu) info network Devices not on any VLAN: hostnet0: net=10.0.2.0, restricted=n peer=virtio1 virtio1: model=virtio-net-pci,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:56 peer=hostnet0 virtio1: net=10.0.2.0, restricted=n (qemu) netdev_del virtio1 Device 'virtio1' not found * parse_netdev() wants a netdev. If it gets a NIC, it gets confused. With the test setup above: (qemu) device_add virtio-net-pci,netdev=virtio1 Property 'virtio-net-pci.netdev' can't take value 'virtio1', it's in use You can even connect two NICs to each other: $ qemu-system-x86_64 -nodefaults -vnc :0 -S -monitor stdio -device virtio-net-pci,id=virtio1 -device e1000,netdev=virtio1 [...] Devices not on any VLAN: virtio1: model=virtio-net-pci,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:56 peer=e1000.0 e1000.0: model=e1000,macaddr=52:54:00:12:34:57 peer=virtio1 (qemu) q Segmentation fault (core dumped) * do_set_link() works fine for both netdevs and NICs. Whether it really makes sense for netdevs is debatable, but that's outside this patch's scope. Change qemu_find_netdev() to return only netdevs. This fixes the netdev_del and device_add/-device bugs demonstrated above. To avoid changing set_link, make do_set_link() search non_vlan_clients by hand instead of calling qemu_find_netdev(). Signed-off-by: Markus Armbruster <armbru@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2011-03-05net: fix qemu_can_send_packet logicVincent Palatin
If any of the clients is not ready to receive (ie it has a can_receive callback and can_receive() returns false), we don't want to start sending, else this client may miss/discard the packet. I got this behaviour with the following setup : the emulated machine is using an USB-ethernet adapter, it is connected to the network using SLIRP and I'm dumping the traffic in a .pcap file. As per the following command line : -net nic,model=usb,vlan=1 -net user,vlan=1 -net dump,vlan=1,file=/tmp/pkt.pcap Every time that two packets are coming in a row from the host, the usb-net code will receive the first one, then returns 0 to can_receive call since it has a 1 packet long queue. But as the dump code is always ready to receive, qemu_can_send_packet will return true and the next packet will discard the previous one in the usb-net code.

2011-02-20net: notify peer about link status changeMichael S. Tsirkin
qemu makes it possible to disable link at tap which is not communicated to the guest but causes all packets to be dropped. This works for virtio userspace, as qemu stops giving it packets, but not for virtio-net connected to vhost-net as that does not get notified about this change. Notify peer when this happens, which will then be used by the follow-up patch to stop/start vhost-net. Note: it might be a good idea to make peer link status match tap in this case, so the guest gets an event and updates the carrier state.

2010-10-06net: delay freeing peer host deviceMichael S. Tsirkin
With -netdev, virtio devices present offload features to guest, depending on the backend used. Thus, removing host netdev peer while guest is active leads to guest-visible inconsistency and/or crashes. As a solution, while guest (NIC) peer device exists, we prevent the host peer from being deleted. This patch does this by adding peer_deleted flag in nic state: if host device is going away while guest device is around, set this flag and keep a shell of the host device around for as long as guest device exists. The link is put down so all packets will get discarded. At the moment, management can detect that device deletion is delayed by doing info net. As a next step, we shall add commands that control hotplug/unplug without removing the device, and an event to report that guest has responded to the hotplug event. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2010-06-30net: Fix VM start with '-net none'Amit Shah
Commit 50e32ea8f31035877decc10f1075aa0e619e09cb changed the behaviour for the return type of net_client_init() when a nic type with no init method was specified. 'none' is one such nic type. Instead of returning 0, which gets interpreted as an index into the nd_table[] array, we switched to returning -1, which signifies an error as well. That broke VM start with '-net none'. Testing was only done with the monitor command 'pci_add', which doesn't fail. The correct fix would still be to return 0+ values from net_client_init() only when the return value can be used as an index to refer to an entry in nd_table[]. With the current code, callers can erroneously poke into nd_table[0] when -net nic is used, which can lead to badness. However, this commit just returns to the previous behaviour before the offending commit. Signed-off-by: Amit Shah <amit.shah@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Aurelien Jarno <aurelien@aurel32.net>
2010-06-14Make netdev_del delete the netdev even when it's in useMarkus Armbruster
To hot-unplug guest and host part of a network device, you do: device_del NIC-ID netdev_del NETDEV-ID For PCI devices, device_del merely tells ACPI to unplug the device. The device goes away for real only after the guest processed the ACPI unplug event. You have to wait until then (e.g. by polling info pci) before you can unplug the netdev. Not good. Fix by removing the "in use" check from do_netdev_del(). Deleting a netdev while it's in use is safe; packets simply get routed to the bit bucket.

Example: $ qemu-system-x86_64 -device rtl8139,vlan=0,id=net0,mac=52:54:00:82:41:fd,bus=pci.0,addr=0x4 -net user,vlan=0,name=hostnet0 -vnc 0.0.0.0:0 -boot n Cannot boot from non-existent NIC $ 2) The mask was previously used to set which boot ROMs were supposed to be loaded, but this was changed long time ago. Now all ROM images are loaded, and SeaBIOS takes care of jumping to the right boot entry point depending on the boot settings. 3) Interpretation and validation of the boot parameter letters is done on the machine type code. Examples: PC accepts only a,b,c,d,n as valid boot device letters. mac99 accepts only a,b,c,d,e,f. As a side-effect of this change, qemu-kvm won't abort anymore if using "-boot n" on a machine with no network devices. Checking if the requested boot device is valid is now a task for the BIOS or the machine-type code.

2010-04-10net: remove NICInfo.bootable fieldEduardo Habkost
It is just set by net_set_boot_mask() and never used. The logic for rom loading changed a lot since this field was introduced. It is not needed anymore.

2010-04-01tap: add vhost/vhostfd optionsMichael S. Tsirkin
This adds vhost binary option to tap, to enable vhost net accelerator. Default is off for now, we'll be able to make default on long term when we know it's stable. vhostfd option can be used by management, to pass in the fd. Assigning vhostfd implies vhost=on.
