2013-02-27net: reduce the unnecessary memory allocation of multiqueueJason Wang1-10/+9
Edivaldo reports a problem that the array of NetClientState in NICState is too large - MAX_QUEUE_NUM(1024) which will wastes memory even if multiqueue is not used. Instead of static arrays, solving this issue by allocating the queues on demand for both the NetClientState array in NICState and VirtIONetQueue array in VirtIONet. Tested by myself, with single virtio-net-pci device. The memory allocation is almost the same as when multiqueue is not merged.

2013-02-27net: fix qemu_flush_queued_packets() in presence of a hubLuigi Rizzo1-0/+6
When frontend and backend are connected through a hub as below (showing only one direction), and the frontend (or in general, all output ports of the hub) cannot accept more traffic, the backend queues packets in queue-A. When the frontend (or in general, one output port) becomes ready again, quemu tries to flush packets from queue-B, which is unfortunately empty. e1000.0 <--[queue B]-- hub0port0(hub)hub0port1 <--[queue A]-- tap.0 To fix this i propose to introduce a new function net_hub_flush() which is called when trying to flush a queue connected to a hub.

2013-02-13net: Avoid NULL function pointer dereference on cleanupAndreas Färber1-1/+3
The pSeries machine and some other devices don't supply a cleanup callback. Revert part of 1ceef9f27359cbe92ef124bf74de6f792e71f6fb that started calling it unconditionally.

2013-02-07net: fix infinite loop on exitMichael Roth1-1/+1
1ceef9f27359cbe92ef124bf74de6f792e71f6fb added handling for cleaning up multiple queues in qemu_del_nic() for cases where multiqueue is in use. To determine the number of queues it looks at nic->conf->queues, then iterates through all the queues to cleanup the associated NetClientStates. If no queues are found, no NetClientStates are deleted. However, nic->conf->queues is only set when a peer is created via -netdev or netdev_add, and is otherwise 0. This causes us to spin in net_cleanup() if we attempt to shut down qemu before adding a host device. Since qemu_new_nic() unconditionally creates at least 1 queue/NetClientState at queue idx 0, make qemu_del_nic() always attempt to clean it up.

2013-02-01net: multiqueue supportJason Wang1-32/+81
This patch adds basic multiqueue support for qemu. The idea is simple, an array of NetClientStates were introduced in NICState, parse_netdev() were extended to find and match all NetClientStates belongs to the backend and place their pointers in NICConf. Then qemu_new_nic can setup a N:N mapping between NICStates that belongs to a nic and NICStates belongs to the netdev. And a queue_index were introduced in NetClientState to track its index. After this, each peers of a NICState were abstracted as a queue. After this change, all NetClientState that belongs to the same backend/nic has the same id. When use want to change the link status, all NetClientStates that belongs to the same backend/nic will be also changed. When user want to delete a device or netdev, all NetClientStates that belongs to the same backend/nic will be deleted also. Changing or deleting an specific queue is not allowed.

2013-02-01net: introduce NetClientState destructorJason Wang1-4/+13
To allow allocating an array of NetClientState and free it once, this patch introduces destructor of NetClientState. Which could do type specific free, which could be used by multiqueue to free the array once. Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2013-02-01net: introduce qemu_net_client_setup()Jason Wang1-10/+19
This patch separates the setup of NetClientState from its allocation, this will allow allocating an arrays of NetClientState and does the initialization one by one which is what multiqueue needs. Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
2013-02-01net: introduce qemu_find_net_clients_except()Jason Wang1-0/+21
In multiqueue, all NetClientState that belongs to the same netdev or nic has the same id. So this patches introduces an helper qemu_find_net_clients_except() which finds all NetClientState with the same id. This will be used by multiqueue networking.

2013-02-01net: intorduce qemu_del_nic()Jason Wang1-1/+14
To support multiqueue nic, this patch separate the nic destructor from qemu_del_net_client() to a new helper qemu_del_nic() since the mapping bettween NiCState and NetClientState were not 1:1 in multiqueue. The following patches would refactor this function to support multiqueue nic. Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Anthony Liguori <aliguori@us.ibm.com>
