* [dpdk-dev] [PATCH] vhost: add interface name to virtio-net struct

This patch fixes the issue whereby when using userspace vhost ports
in the context of vSwitching, the name provided to the hypervisor/QEMU
of the vhost tap device needs to be exposed in the library, in order
for the vSwitch to be able to direct packets to the correct device.
This patch introduces an 'ifname' member to the virtio-net structure
which is populated with the tap device name when QEMU is brought up
with a vhost device.

Do you mean that vhost was not working at all?
Please precise the context and how it is critical.
More informations are needed to understand wether it should be merged in
release 1.8.0 or not.

Hi Thomas,

A basic vHost use case will work, for example a single Virtual Machine with a vHost port. However normal vSwitching use cases will require the use of multiple vHost ports and multiple VMs. With that in mind, it is essential that the vSwitch has some way of knowing which vHost port it is sending to and receiving packets from. This patch resolves this issue by exposing the tap device name of the vHost device. Without that information we cannot determine the particular vHost port to send/receive from, which in the context of switching, is a critical problem.

Thanks,
Ciara

Shouldn't we check that ioctl() returns with success here,
and if it fails, don't copy stuff over?

So if sizeof(ifr.ifr_name) > sizeof(dev->ifname) then we can endup with dev->ifname not being null-termianted?
Another nit: there is no need to call strnlen() twice.

For example, in qemu command line, we specify tap device "tap1" for virtio device in "VM1", and "tap2" for virtio device in "VM2".
vSwitch wants to expose the tap device name in the virtio_net device structure otherwise it doesn't know the virtio_device it gets
is for which VM.
The mac address isn't enough for vSwitch.
The problem is for vhost-user, we have no such kind of identity, unless we create socket for each virtio device, and use the socket
path string.

Exactly.
The vSwitch uses tap name to associate the virtio device with ovs port.
Without this change the vhost library cannot be used in vSwitch.

Hi Konstantin,

Thank you for the feedback. 

As regards the following:
"So if sizeof(ifr.ifr_name) > sizeof(dev->ifname) then we can endup with dev->ifname not being null-termianted?"
This should never be the case as now both dev->ifname and ifr.ifr_name are of size IFNAMSIZ in v2 of the patch.

Thanks,
Ciara

Shouldn't we check that ioctl() returns with success here, and if it fails, don't copy stuff over?

So if sizeof(ifr.ifr_name) > sizeof(dev->ifname) then we can endup with dev->ifname not being null-termianted?
Another nit: there is no need to call strnlen() twice.
