* virtio: allow drivers to validate featuresMichael S. Tsirkin2017-04-041-0/+6
| | | | | | | | Some drivers can't support all features in all configurations. At the moment we blindly set FEATURES_OK and later FAILED. Support this better by adding a callback drivers can use to do some early checks. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>
* virtio_net: refactor freeze/restore logic into virtnet reset logicJohn Fastabend2017-02-071-19/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | For XDP we will need to reset the queues to allow for buffer headroom to be configured. In order to do this we need to essentially run the freeze()/restore() code path. Unfortunately the locking requirements between the freeze/restore and reset paths are different however so we can not simply reuse the code. This patch refactors the code path and adds a reset helper routine. Signed-off-by: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Acked-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* virtio: fix memory leak of virtio ida cache layersSuman Anna2015-12-071-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The virtio core uses a static ida named virtio_index_ida for assigning index numbers to virtio devices during registration. The ida core may allocate some internal idr cache layers and an ida bitmap upon any ida allocation, and all these layers are truely freed only upon the ida destruction. The virtio_index_ida is not destroyed at present, leading to a memory leak when using the virtio core as a module and atleast one virtio device is registered and unregistered. Fix this by invoking ida_destroy() in the virtio core module exit. Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Suman Anna <s-anna@ti.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com>

|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Virtio wants to release used indices after the corresponding virtio device has been unregistered. However, virtio does not hold an extra reference, giving up its last reference with device_unregister(), making accessing dev->index afterwards invalid. I actually saw problems when testing my (not-yet-merged) virtio-ccw code: - device_add virtio-net,id=xxx -> creates device virtio<n> with n>0 - device_del xxx -> deletes virtio<n>, but calls ida_simple_remove with an index of 0 - device_add virtio-net,id=xxx -> tries to add virtio0, which is still in use... So let's save the index we want to release before calling device_unregister().

* virtio: meet virtio spec by finalizing features before using deviceRusty Russell2009-06-121-3/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Virtio devices are supposed to negotiate features before they start using the device, but the current code doesn't do this. This is because the driver's probe() function invariably has to add buffers to a virtqueue, or probe the disk (virtio_blk). This currently doesn't matter since no existing backend is strict about the feature negotiation. But it's possible to imagine a future feature which completely changes how a device operates: in this case, we'd need to acknowledge it before using the device.

* virtio: struct device - replace bus_id with dev_name(), dev_set_name()Kay Sievers2008-12-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch is part of a larger patch series which will remove the "char bus_id[20]" name string from struct device. The device name is managed in the kobject anyway, and without any size limitation, and just needlessly copied into "struct device". To set and read the device name dev_name(dev) and dev_set_name(dev) must be used. If your code uses static kobjects, which it shouldn't do, "const char *init_name" can be used to statically provide the name the registered device should have. At registration time, the init_name field is cleared, to enforce the use of dev_name(dev) to access the device name at a later time. We need to get rid of all occurrences of bus_id in the entire tree to be able to enable the new interface. Please apply this patch, and possibly convert any remaining remaining occurrences of bus_id. We want to submit a patch to -next, which will remove bus_id from "struct device", to find the remaining pieces to convert, and finally switch over to the new api, which will remove the 20 bytes array and does no longer have a size limitation.

* virtio: set device index in common code.Rusty Russell2008-05-301-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Anthony Liguori points out that three different transports use the virtio code, but each one keeps its own counter to set the virtio_device's index field. In theory (though not in current practice) this means that names could be duplicated, and that risk grows as more transports are created. So we move the selection of the unique virtio_device.index into the common code in virtio.c, which has the side-benefit of removing duplicate code. The only complexity is that lguest and S/390 use the index to uniquely identify the device in case of catastrophic failure before register_virtio_device() is called: now we use the offset within the descriptor page as a unique identifier for the printks.

* virtio: explicit advertisement of driver featuresRusty Russell2008-05-021-2/+36
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A recent proposed feature addition to the virtio block driver revealed some flaws in the API: in particular, we assume that feature negotiation is complete once a driver's probe function returns. There is nothing in the API to require this, however, and even I didn't notice when it was violated. So instead, we require the driver to specify what features it supports in a table, we can then move the feature negotiation into the virtio core. The intersection of device and driver features are presented in a new 'features' bitmap in the struct virtio_device. Note that this highlights the difference between Linux unsigned-long bitmaps where each unsigned long is in native endian, and a straight-forward little-endian array of bytes. Drivers can still remove feature bits in their probe routine if they really have to. API changes: - dev->config->feature() no longer gets and acks a feature. - drivers should advertise their features in the 'feature_table' field - use virtio_has_feature() for extra sanity when checking feature bits Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au>

* virtio: reset functionRusty Russell2008-02-041-2/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A reset function solves three problems: 1) It allows us to renegotiate features, eg. if we want to upgrade a guest driver without rebooting the guest. 2) It gives us a clean way of shutting down virtqueues: after a reset, we know that the buffers won't be used by the host, and 3) It helps the guest recover from messed-up drivers. So we remove the ->shutdown hook, and the only way we now remove feature bits is via reset. We leave it to the driver to do the reset before it deletes queues: the balloon driver, for example, needs to chat to the host in its remove function.

* Virtio interfaceRusty Russell2007-10-231-0/+171
This attempts to implement a "virtual I/O" layer which should allow common drivers to be efficiently used across most virtual I/O mechanisms. It will no-doubt need further enhancement. The virtio drivers add buffers to virtio queues; as the buffers are consumed the driver "interrupt" callbacks are invoked. There is also a generic implementation of config space which drivers can query to get setup information from the host.
