Subject: qemu: e1000 fix TOR math

Patch b0b900070c7cb29bbefb732ec00397abe5de6d73 made
TOR valuer incorrect: the spec says it should always
include the CRC field.
No one seems to use this field, but better to stick to spec.

Subject: virtio-net: Make tx_timer timeout configurable

Add an option to make the TX mitigation timer adjustable as a device
option.  The 150us hard coded default used currently is reasonable,
but may not be suitable for all workloads, this gives us a way to
adjust it using a single binary.  We can't support any random option
though, so use the "x-" prefix to indicate this is a developer
option.  Usage:

-device virtio-net-pci,x-txtimer=500000,... # .5ms timeout

From e3f30488e5f802547b3a60e40cebaef3b4ec16a3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Alex Williamson <alex.williamson@redhat.com>

Subject: virtio-net: Limit number of packets sent per TX flush

If virtio_net_flush_tx() is called with notification disabled, we can
race with the guest, processing packets at the same rate as they
get produced.  The trouble is that this means we have no guaranteed
exit condition from the function and can spend minutes in there.
Currently flush_tx is only called with notification on, which seems
to limit us to one pass through the queue per call.  An upcoming
patch changes this.

Also add an option to set this value on the command line as different
workloads may wish to use different values.  We can't necessarily
support any random value, so this is a developer option: x-txburst=
Usage:

-device virtio-net-pci,x-txburst=64 # 64 packets per tx flush

One pass through the queue (256) seems to be a good default value
for this, balancing latency with throughput.  We use a signed int
for x-txburst because 2^31 packets in a burst would take many, many
minutes to process and it allows us to easily return a negative
value value from virtio_net_flush_tx() to indicate a back-off
or error condition.

Subject: virtio-net: Introduce a new bottom half packet TX

Based on a patch from Mark McLoughlin, this patch introduces a new
bottom half packet transmitter that avoids the latency imposed by
the tx_timer approach.  Rather than scheduling a timer when a TX
packet comes in, schedule a bottom half to be run from the iothread.
The bottom half handler first attempts to flush the queue with
notification disabled (this is where we could race with a guest
without txburst).  If we flush a full burst, reschedule immediately.
If we send short of a full burst, try to re-enable notification.
To avoid a race with TXs that may have occurred, we must then
flush again.  If we find some packets to send, the guest it probably
active, so we can reschedule again.

tx_timer and tx_bh are mutually exclusive, so we can re-use the
tx_waiting flag to indicate one or the other needs to be setup.
This allows us to seamlessly migrate between timer and bh TX
handling.

The bottom half handler becomes the new default and we add a new
tx= option to virtio-net-pci.  Usage:

-device virtio-net-pci,tx=timer # select timer mitigation vs "bh"
