This patch is a followup to 8eca6b1bc7,
fixing crashes when guests with 2.6.25 virtio drivers have saturated
virtio network connections.
https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qemu-kvm/+bug/458521
That patch should have been whitelisting *_HOST_* rather than the the
*_GUEST_* features.
I tested this by running an Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy guest (2.6.24 kernel +
2.6.25-virtio driver). I saturated both the incoming, and outgoing
network connection with nc, seeing sustained 6MB/s up and 6MB/s down
bitrates for ~20 minutes. Previously, this crashed immediately. Now,
the guest does not crash and maintains network connectivity throughout
the test.

We should only return zero from receive() for a condition which we'll
get notification of when it changes. Currently, we're returning zero
if the guest driver is not ready, but we won't ever flush our queue
when that status changes.
Also, don't check buffer space in can_receive(), but instead just allow
receive() to return zero when this condition occurs and have the caller
handle queueing the packet.

If we tell the guest we support UFO and then migrate to host which

Prevent this scenario by adding a flag to virtio-net's savevm format
which indicates whether the device requires host UFO support.

With the latest GSO/csum offload patches, any guest using an unpatched version
of dhclient (any Ubuntu guest, for instance), will no longer be able to get
a DHCP address.
dhclient is actually at fault here. It uses AF_PACKET to receive DHCP responses
but does not check auxdata to see if the packet has a valid csum. This causes
it to throw out the DHCP responses it gets from the virtio interface as there
is not a valid checksum.
Fedora has carried a patch to fix their dhclient (it's needed for Xen too) but
this patch has not made it into a release of dhclient. AFAIK, the patch is in
the dhclient CVS but I cannot confirm since their CVS is not public.
This patch, suggested by Rusty, looks for UDP packets (of a normal MTU) and
explicitly adds a checksum to them if they are missing one.
This allows unpatched dhclients to continue to work without needing to update
the guest kernels.

With '-netdev tap,id=foo -nic model=virtio,netdev=foo' virtio-net can
detect that its peer (i.e. the tap backend) supports vnet headers
and advertise to the guest that it can send packets with partial
checksums and/or TSO packets.
One complication is that if we're migrating and the source host
supports IFF_VNET_HDR but the destination host doesn't, we can't then
stop the guest from using those features. In this scenario, we just
fail the migration.

The MAC filter table is received from the guest as two separate
buffers, one with unicast entries, the other with multicast
entries. If we track the index dividing the two sets, we can
avoid searching the part of the table with the wrong type of

We could store this index as part of the save image, but its
trivially easy to discover it on load.

Create a filter table and allow the guest to populate it with the
MAC class control commands. We manage the size and usage of the
filter table including enabling promiscuous and all-multi modes
as necessary. The guest should therefore assume the table is
infinite. Eventually this might allow us to bind directly to a
hardware NIC and manipulate a physical MAC filter.
The specifics of the TABLE_SET command are documented in
virtio-net.h. Separate buffers in the same command are used
for unicaste and multicast addresses for priority and
sychronization. With this we can export the VIRTIO_NET_F_CTRL_RX
feature bit.

The control transaction consists of one or more "out" sg entries and
one or more "in" sg entries. The first out entry contains a header
defining the class and command. Additional out entries may provide

A subsystem vendor ID of zero isn't allowed, so we use our
default ID.
Gerd points out that although the PCI subsystem vendor ID is
treated by the guest as the virtio vendor ID:
/* we use the subsystem vendor/device id as the virtio vendor/device
* id. this allows us to use the same PCI vendor/device id for all
* virtio devices and to identify the particular virtio driver by
* the subsytem ids */
vp_dev->vdev.id.vendor = pci_dev->subsystem_vendor;
vp_dev->vdev.id.device = pci_dev->subsystem_device;
it looks like only the device ID is used right now:
# grep virtio modules.alias
alias virtio:d00000001v* virtio_net
alias virtio:d00000002v* virtio_blk
alias virtio:d00000003v* virtio_console
alias virtio:d00000004v* virtio-rng
alias virtio:d00000005v* virtio_balloon
alias pci:v00001AF4d*sv*sd*bc*sc*i* virtio_pci
alias virtio:d00000009v* 9pnet_virtio
so setting the subsystem vendor id to something != zero shouldn't cause
trouble.
