2021-02-15vlib: refactor checksum offload supportMohsin Kazmi1-11/+8
Type: refactor This patch refactors the offload flags in vlib_buffer_t. There are two main reasons behind this refactoring. First, offload flags are insufficient to represent outer and inner headers offloads. Second, room for these flags in first cacheline of vlib_buffer_t is also limited. This patch introduces a generic offload flag in first cacheline. And detailed offload flags in 2nd cacheline of the structure for performance optimization.

2021-01-08vhost: Add event index for interrupt notification to driverSteven Luong1-6/+7
VPP only supports a poor man's approach for interrupt notification to the driver. It uses a simple binary flag for "interrupt needed" or "interrupt not needed". Most drivers support more sophisticated event index already. This feature is to add the long due missing feature and make it configurable, off by default.

2020-12-25virtio: Extend vhost multi-queues support beyond 8 queue pairsSteven Luong1-13/+2
Current vhost multi-queues support has a hard limit of 8 queue pairs due to static vring array. This limit was raised in qemu. VPP should support more than 8 queue pairs also. Change static vring allocation to dynamic. When the interface is created, we allocate 8 queue pairs to begin with. We also keep track of how many queue pairs that the interface actually uses. We reply VHOST_USER_GET_QUEUE_NUM with 128 as our maximum number of support queue pair. When qemu starts initializing queue pair greater than 8, we expand the vrings as needed on demand.

2020-10-22virtio: checksum error reported for ip6 traffic with GSO enableSteven Luong1-6/+0
When GSO is enabled, vhost clears the checksum field prior to transmitting the packet. Some newer kernel version does not like that and complains about checksum error. This was seen with ip6 traffic.

2020-09-04virtio: remove kernel virtio header dependenciesMohsin Kazmi1-25/+24
Type: refactor tap, virtio and vhost use virtio/vhost header files from linux kernel. Different features are supported on different kernel versions, making it difficult to use those in VPP. This patch removes virtio/vhost based header dependencies to local header files. Change-Id: I064a8adb5cd9753c986b6f224bb075200b3856af Signed-off-by: Mohsin Kazmi <sykazmi@cisco.com>

2020-04-27virtio: support virtio 1.1 packed ring in vhostSteven Luong1-0/+421
virtio 1.1 defines a number of new features. Packed ring is among the most notable and important one. It combines used, available, and descripptor rings into one. This patch provides experimental support for packed ring. To avoid regression, when packed ring is configured for the interface, it is branched to a separate RX and TX driver. Non packed ring should continue to perform as it was before. Packed ring is tested using qemu4.2 and ubuntu focal fossa (kernel 5.4.0-12) on the guess VM which supports packed ring. To configure VPP with packed ring, just add the optional keyword "packed" when creating the vhost interface. To bring up the guest VM with packed ring, add "packed=on" in the qemu launch command. To facilitate troubleshooting, also added "verbose" option in show vhost desc CLI to include displaying the indirect descriptors. Known qemu reconnect issue - If VPP is restarted, guest VMs also need to be restarted. The problem is kernel virtio-net-pci keeps track of the previous available and used indices. For virtio 1.0, these indices are in shared memory and qemu can easily copy them to pass to the backend for reconnect. For virio 1.1, these indices are no longer in shared memory. Qemu needs a new mechanism to retrieve them and it is not currently implemented. So when the protocol reconnects, qemu does not have the correct available and used indices to pass to the backend. As a result, after the reconnect, virtio-net-pci is reading the TX ring from the wrong position in the ring, not the same position which the backend is writing. Similar problem exists also in the RX.

2020-02-03virtio: vhost gso is broken in some topologySteven Luong1-2/+8
Recent modification added a call to vnet_gso_header_offset_parser in the beginning of vhost_user_handle_tx_offload. The former routine may set tcp or udp->checksum to 0. While it is appropriate to set it to 0 for the GSO packet, it is broken and causes checksum error if the aformentiooned routine is called by a non-GSO packet. The fix is to not call vhost_user_handle_tx_offload if the buffer does not indicate checksum offload is needed.

2019-02-14Add -fno-common compile optionBenoît Ganne1-1/+1
-fno-common makes sure we do not have multiple declarations of the same global symbol across compilation units. It helps debug nasty linkage bugs by guaranteeing that all reference to a global symbol use the same underlying object. It also helps avoiding benign mistakes such as declaring enum as global objects instead of types in headers (hence the minor fixes scattered across the source).

We fixed a similar issue before in https://gerrit.fd.io/r/#/c/14545/ The reason was the driver ummaps the memory without doing the disconnect in SR-IOV environment. The fixed was applied to the RX path. Now it happens in the TX path. We just need to apply the same check in the TX path.
