[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/tap: fix dev name look-up

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH] net/tap: fix dev name look-up

[Pascal Mazon]

The call to rte_eth_dev_allocate(tap_name) sets dev->data->name to
tap_name (e.g. "dtap0").

A look-up using tap_name is expected to return this device, not a
look-up using name (e.g. "net_tap0").

This will break rte_pmd_tap_remove(), because it gets device name
(net_tap0) as parameter.

And logically this is wrong too, current eth_dev->data->name is to keep
device name, all other PMDs use this way, not for Linux interface name.

Current tap PMD, first gives "dtap0" to rte_eth_dev_allocate() as
argument, which sets device name to this value. Later with snprintf()
overwrites the device name with correct value, I think better thing to
do is give correct argument to rte_eth_dev_allocate() and remove snprintf()

All of these different names for the device is driving me crazy :-)

As long as the name of the device as seen from the ifconfig command or host facing name is dtapX then I am ok. We need to clean this up somehow as it is very confusing.

It is not that bad indeed, from DPDK point of view, there is device and
driver name, and specific to tap, there is also Linux device (interface)
name.

Using Linux device name for DPDK device structures caused confusion for
tap, but I am not sure what to clean up.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2] net/tap: fix dev name look-up

[Pascal Mazon]

Store the device name in dev->data->name, to have symmetrical behavior
between rte_pmd_tap_probe(name) and rte_pmd_tap_remove(name).

The netdevice name (linux interface name) is stored in the name field of
struct pmd_internals.

There's no need to allocate an rte_eth_dev_data, as it is done in
rte_eth_dev_allocate()/rte_eth_dev_data_alloc().

+1 for this.

Allocating rte_eth_dev_data, although rte_eth_dev_allocate() does
already, common practice for virtual devices, for a reason.

rte_eth_dev_allocate() allocates device data from a shared memory, so
that multiple DPDK processes can access same device data, this may make
sense for physical devices, since there is a single physical resource.

But for virtual devices, each DPDK process may want to have independent
instance of the virtual device, that is why PMD itself allocates data
and overwrites with existing dev->data.

Also this may lead unexpected results for some multi process use cases,
like secondary process virtual device corrupt primary process physical
device data.

I believe it is good to keep this as it is.

I see your point.

I'll send a v3 with just the correct "name" used for allocation.
And I'll move the snprintf(data->name) closer, to insist it must use the
same name as in allocation.

When you use correct name (name) for rte_eth_dev_allocate(), snprintf()
no more required. rte_eth_dev_allocate() already does it [1].

I disagree here. What rte_eth_dev_allocate() changes, is the shared
automatically-allocated data part, as mentioned in your earlier mail.
We didn't yet pass our own manually allocated data to dev.

Do you see what I mean?
