2019-02-22tapv2: coverity strikes backSteven Luong1-5/+4
while https://gerrit.fd.io/r/#/c/16590/ fixed the leaked fd which coverity reported at that time, new coverity run reports simailar leaked fd in a different goto punt path. It would be nice if coverity reported both of them at the same time. Or perhaps it did and I just missed it. Anyway, the new fix is to put the close (fd) statement prior to the return of tap_create_if routine which should catch all goto's.

2019-02-19tap gso: experimental supportAndrew Yourtchenko1-0/+65
This commit adds a "gso" parameter to existing "create tap..." CLI, and a "no-gso" parameter for the compatibility with the future, when/if defaults change. It makes use of the lowest bit of the "tap_flags" field in the API call in order to allow creation of GSO interfaces via API as well. It does the necessary syscalls to enable the GSO and checksum offload support on the kernel side and sets two flags on the interface: virtio-specific virtio_if_t.gso_enabled, and vnet_hw_interface_t.flags & VNET_HW_INTERFACE_FLAG_SUPPORTS_GSO. The first one, if enabled, triggers the marking of the GSO-encapsulated packets on ingress with VNET_BUFFER_F_GSO flag, and setting vnet_buffer2(b)->gso_size to the desired L4 payload size. VNET_HW_INTERFACE_FLAG_SUPPORTS_GSO determines the egress packet processing in interface-output for such packets: When the flag is set, they are sent out almost as usual (just taking care to set the vnet header for virtio). When the flag is not enabled (the case for most interfaces), the egress path performs the re-segmentation such that the L4 payload of the transmitted packets equals gso_size. The operations in the datapath are enabled only when there is at least one GSO-compatible interface in the system - this is done by tracking the count in interface_main.gso_interface_count. This way the impact of conditional checks for the setups that do not use GSO is minimized. "show tap" CLI shows the state of the GSO flag on the interface, and the total count of GSO-enabled interfaces (which is used to enable the GSO-related processing in the packet path). This commit lacks IPv6 extension header traversal support of any kind - the L4 payload is assumed to follow the IPv6 header. Also it performs the offloads only for TCP (TSO - TCP segmentation offload). The UDP fragmentation offload (UFO) is not part of it. For debug purposes it also adds the debug CLI: "set tap gso {<interface> | sw_if_index <sw_idx>} <enable|disable>" Change-Id: Ifd562db89adcc2208094b3d1032cee8c307aaef9 Signed-off-by: Andrew Yourtchenko <ayourtch@gmail.com>

2018-12-22tapv2: coverity woeSteven1-2/+4
coverity complains about fd leaking inside the if statement because there is a goto which bypasses the statement close (fd). The fix is to close (fd) immediately after it is no longer used. Change-Id: Ic5035b07ec1f179ff3db77744843e47aa8067a3c Signed-off-by: Steven <sluong@cisco.com>

2018-03-02tapv2: CLI and binary API fixesSteven1-2/+2
1. When interface create encouners an error (see test below), the same id cannot be used again. This is due to hash_set is called too early in the function. After the hash entry is set, there are different errors may cause the interface create to be aborted. But we didn't remove the hash entry when error is encountered. The fix is to move the hash_set call near the end which has no more "goto error" DBGvpp# create tap id 1 rx-ring-size 1021 tx-ring-size 1021 create tap id 1 rx-ring-size 1021 tx-ring-size 1021 create tap: ring size must be power of 2 DBGvpp# create tap id 1 rx-ring-size 1024 tx-ring-size 1024 create tap id 1 rx-ring-size 1024 tx-ring-size 1024 create tap: interface already exists DBGvpp# 2. multiple issues exist with api_format.c with the below command binary-api tap_create_v2 id 4 hw-addr 90:e2:ba:76:cf:2f rx-ring-size 1024 tx-ring-size 1024 - hw_addr is not taken due to the test for random mac is inverted - id is an integer, not a string - integer values were not converted to network format Change-Id: I5a669d702a80ad158517df46f0ab089e4d0d692e Signed-off-by: Steven <sluong@cisco.com>
2018-02-28tapv2: abort in tap_create_if (VPP-1179)Steven1-0/+1
The following command sequences cause the crash: create tap id 0 rx-ring-size 1024 tx-ring-size 1024 create tap id 1 rx-ring-size 1024 tx-ring-size 1024 set interface state tap0 up set interface state tap1 up delete tap tap0 delete tap tap1 create tap id 0 rx-ring-size 1024 tx-ring-size 1024 0: /home/sluong/vpp2/vpp/build-data/../src/vnet/interface_funcs.h:46 (vnet_get_hw_interface) assertion `! pool_is_free (vnm->interface_main.hw_interfaces, _e)' fails The reason for the crash is because when the tap interface is deleted, the code does not remove the entry from the device queue. But the interface is deleted anyway from vnet_main.interface_main.hw_interfaces. When an interface is created again, it may encounter the deleted entry in the device queue and crash. Notice create and delete a single entry does not cause a crash. Need to create and delete 2 interfaces to create a "hole" in the device queue.

2018-01-16tapv2: deleting tap interface may leak buffers (VPP-1124)Steven1-2/+2
Buffers may be allocated for indirect descriptors by tx thread and they are freed when tx thread is invoked in the next invocation. This is to allow the recipient (kernel) to have a chance to process them. But if the tap interface is deleted, the tx thread may not yet be called to clean up the indirect descriptors' buffers. In that case, we need to remove them without waiting for the tx thread to be called. Failure to do so may cause buffers leak when the tap interface is deleted. For the RX ring, leakage also exists for vring->buffers when the interface is removed.
