Subject: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 0/7] virtio/vhost: Add MTU feature support
Date: Mon,  6 Mar 2017 09:27:33 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170306082740.5675-1-maxime.coquelin@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170213142820.8964-1-maxime.coquelin@redhat.com>

This series adds support to new Virtio's MTU feature[1]. The MTU
value is set via QEMU parameters.

If the feature is negotiated (i.e supported by both host andcguest,
and valid MTU value is set in QEMU via its host_mtu parameter), QEMU
shares the configured MTU value throught dedicated Vhost protocol
feature.

On vhost side, the value is stored in the virtio_net structure, and
made available to the application thanks to new vhost lib's
rte_vhost_mtu_get() function.

To be able to set eth_dev's MTU value at the right time, i.e. to call
rte_vhost_mtu_get() just after Virtio features have been negotiated
and before the device is really started, a new vhost flag has been
introduced (VIRTIO_DEV_READY), because the VIRTIO_DEV_RUNNING flag is
set too late (after .new_device() ops is called).

Regarding valid MTU values, the maximum MTU value accepted on vhost
side is 65535 bytes, as defined in Virtio Spec and supported in
Virtio-net Kernel driver. But in Virtio PMD, current maximum frame
size is 9728 bytes (~9700 bytes MTU). So maximum MTU size accepted in
Virtio PMD is the minimum between ~9700 bytes and host's MTU.

Finally, this series also adds MTU value printing  in testpmd's
"show port info" command when non-zero.

This series target v17.05 release.

Cheers,
Maxime

Changes since v1:
-----------------
* Rebased on top of v17.02
* Virtio PMD: ensure MTU value is valid before ack'ing the feature (Aaron)
* Vhost lib/PMD: Remove MTU setting API/op (Yuanhan)

Maxime Coquelin (7):
  vhost: Enable VIRTIO_NET_F_MTU feature
  vhost: vhost-user: Add MTU protocol feature support
  vhost: Add new ready status flag
  vhost: Add API to get MTU value
  net/vhost: Fill rte_eth_dev's MTU property
  net/virtio: Add MTU feature support
  app/testpmd: print MTU value in show port info
