convert net_client_init() to OptsVisitor The net_client_init() prototype is kept intact. Based on "is_netdev", the QemuOpts-rooted QemuOpt-list is parsed as a Netdev or a NetLegacy. The original meat of net_client_init() is moved to and simplified in net_client_init1(): Fields not common between -net and -netdev are clearly separated. Getting the name for the init functions is cleaner: Netdev::id is mandatory, and all init functions handle a NULL NetLegacy::name. NetLegacy::vlan explicitly depends on -net (see below). Verifying the "type=" option for -netdev can be turned into a switch. Format validation with qemu_opts_validate() can be removed because the visitor covers it. Relatedly, the "net_client_types" array is reduced to an array of init functions that can be directly indexed by opts->kind. (Help text is available in the schema JSON.) The outermost negation in the condition around qemu_find_vlan() was flattened, because it expresses the dependent code's requirements more clearly. VLAN lookup is avoided if there's no init function to pass the VLAN to. Whenever the value of type=... is needed, we substitute NetClientOptionsKind_lookup[kind]. The individual init functions are not converted yet, thus the original QemuOpts instance is passed transparently. v1->v2: - NetLegacy::name is optional. Tracked it through all init functions: they all handle a NULL name. Updated commit message accordingly. v2->v3: - NetLegacy::id is allowed and takes precedence over NetLegacy::name.

Add support for net bridge 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>
