2016-06-06hv_netvsc: pass struct net_device to rndis_filter_set_device_mac()Vitaly Kuznetsov1-3/+1
We unpack 'struct net_device' in netvsc_set_mac_addr() to get to 'struct hv_device' pointer which we use in rndis_filter_set_device_mac() to get back to 'struct net_device'. Signed-off-by: Vitaly Kuznetsov <vkuznets@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2016-05-16hv_netvsc: untangle the pointer messVitaly Kuznetsov1-30/+21
We have the following structures keeping netvsc adapter state: - struct net_device - struct net_device_context - struct netvsc_device - struct rndis_device - struct hv_device and there are pointers/dependencies between them: - struct net_device_context is contained in struct net_device - struct hv_device has driver_data pointer which points to 'struct net_device' OR 'struct netvsc_device' depending on driver's state (!). - struct net_device_context has a pointer to 'struct hv_device'. - struct netvsc_device has pointers to 'struct hv_device' and 'struct net_device_context'. - struct rndis_device has a pointer to 'struct netvsc_device'. Different functions get different structures as parameters and use these pointers for traveling. The problem is (in addition to keeping in mind this complex graph) that some of these structures (struct netvsc_device and struct rndis_device) are being removed and re-created on mtu change (as we implement it as re-creation of hyper-v device) so our travel using these pointers is dangerous. Simplify this to a the following: - add struct netvsc_device pointer to struct net_device_context (which is a part of struct net_device and thus never disappears) - remove struct hv_device and struct net_device_context pointers from struct netvsc_device - replace pointer to 'struct netvsc_device' with pointer to 'struct net_device'. - always keep 'struct net_device' in hv_device driver_data. We'll end up with the following 'circular' structure: net_device: [net_device_context] -> netvsc_device -> rndis_device -> net_device -> hv_device -> net_device On MTU change we'll be removing the 'netvsc_device -> rndis_device' branch and re-creating it making the synchronization easier. There is one additional redundant pointer left, it is struct net_device link in struct netvsc_device, it is going to be removed in a separate commit.

netvsc_link_change() can race with netvsc_change_mtu() or netvsc_set_channels() as these functions destroy struct netvsc_device and rndis filter. Use start_remove flag for syncronization.

2016-04-18hv_netvsc: Implement support for VF drivers on Hyper-VKY Srinivasan1-26/+286
Support VF drivers on Hyper-V. On Hyper-V, each VF instance presented to the guest has an associated synthetic interface that shares the MAC address with the VF instance. Typically these are bonded together to support live migration. By default, the host delivers all the incoming packets on the synthetic interface. Once the VF is up, we need to explicitly switch the data path on the host to divert traffic onto the VF interface. Even after switching the data path, broadcast and multicast packets are always delivered on the synthetic interface and these will have to be injected back onto the VF interface (if VF is up). This patch implements the necessary support in netvsc to support Linux VF drivers. Signed-off-by: K. Y.

2015-12-01hv_netvsc: rework link status change handlingVitaly Kuznetsov1-47/+95
There are several issues in hv_netvsc driver with regards to link status change handling: - RNDIS_STATUS_NETWORK_CHANGE results in calling userspace helper doing '/etc/init.d/network restart' and this is inappropriate and broken for many reasons. - link_watch infrastructure only sends one notification per second and in case of e.g. paired disconnect/connect events we get only one notification with last status. This makes it impossible to handle such situations in userspace. Redo link status changes handling in the following way: - Create a list of reconfig events in network device context. - On a reconfig event add it to the list of events and schedule netvsc_link_change(). - In netvsc_link_change() ensure 2-second delay between link status changes. - Handle RNDIS_STATUS_NETWORK_CHANGE as a paired disconnect/connect event.

So on a 32 VCPU guest we could potentially open 32 VRSS subchannels. Experimentation has shown that it is best to limit the number of VRSS channels to the number of CPUs within a NUMA node. Here is the new algorithm for deciding on the number of sub-channels we would open up: 1) Pick the minimum of what the host is offering and what the driver in the guest is specifying as the default value. 2) Pick the minimum of (1) and the numbers of CPUs in the NUMA node the primary channel is bound to.
