[PATCH v2 0/6] Vhost checksum offload improvements

[PATCH v2 0/6] Vhost checksum offload improvements

[Maxime Coquelin]

This series aims at improving Vhost checksum offloading
support.

The first patch reverts overwritting MAC address in
testpmd CSUM forward mode. This is required to be able to
test checksum offloading with real traffic. MAC forwarding
mode should be used if the MAC addresses need to be
changed.

Second patch is a Vhost library fix to be compliant with
the Virtio specification, which requires that the
pseudo-header checksum is being set by the device when
offloading the checksum to the guest.

Third patch enables the compliant offloading mode of Vhost
library in Vhost PMD by default, since the legacy mode
violates the mbuf API by setting Tx flags in the receive
path. A new devarg is introduced for application willing
to use the legacy mode.

Fourth patch is just a small cleanup to represent a boolean
value as a boolean.

The two last patches introduces compatibility layers
that performs checksum in SW when the ethdev and Virtio
features are not aligned.

Note that the two last patches are not tagged as fixes
because they rely on the new compliant offload mode of
Vhost library, and so would casue an ABI breakage if
backported.

With this series, it is now possible to perform IO
forwarding between a vhost-user port and a Vitio-user
with kernel backend port even if the guest has negotiated
VIRTIO_NET_F_CSUM.

With csum forward mode, it now works whathever the
offloading configuration set either on Virtio or Ethdev
sides.

Changes in v2:
==============
- Add the new devarg to validation array (Wenwu)
- Fix typos in commit messages (Chenbo, checkpatch, Yuying)

[PATCH v2 1/6] Revert "app/testpmd: modify mac in csum forwarding"

[Maxime Coquelin]

This patch reverts commit 10f4620f02e1 ("app/testpmd: modify mac in csum forwarding"),
as the checksum forwarding is expected to only perform
checksum and not also overwrites the source and destination
MAC addresses.

Doing so, we can test checksum offloading with real traffic
without breaking broadcast packets.

[PATCH v2 2/6] vhost: fix missing enqueue pseudo-header calculation

[Maxime Coquelin]

The Virtio specification requires that in case of checksum
offloading, the pseudo-header checksum must be set in the
L4 header.

When received from another Vhost-user port, the packet
checksum might already contain the pseudo-header checksum
but we have no way to know it. So we have no other choice
than doing the pseudo-header checksum systematically.

This patch handles this using the rte_net_intel_cksum_prepare()
helper.

[PATCH v2 3/6] net/vhost: enable compliant offloading mode

[Maxime Coquelin]

This patch enables the compliant offloading flags mode by
default, which prevents the Rx path to set Tx offload flags,
which is illegal. A new legacy-ol-flags devarg is introduced
to enable the legacy behaviour.

[PATCH v2 5/6] net/vhost: perform SW checksum in Rx path

[Maxime Coquelin]

Virtio specification supports host checksum offloading
for L4, which is enabled with VIRTIO_NET_F_CSUM feature
negotiation. However, the Vhost PMD does not advertise
Rx checksum offload capabilities, so we can end-up with
the VIRTIO_NET_F_CSUM feature being negotiated, implying
the Vhost library returns packets with checksum being
offloaded while the application did not request for it.

Advertising these offload capabilities at the ethdev level
is not enough, because we could still end-up with the
application not enabling these offloads while the guest
still negotiate them.

This patch advertises the Rx checksum offload capabilities,
and introduces a compatibility layer to cover the case
VIRTIO_NET_F_CSUM has been negotiated but the application
does not configure the Rx checksum offloads. This function
performis the L4 Rx checksum in SW for UDP and TCP. Note
that it is not needed to calculate the pseudo-header
checksum, because the Virtio specification requires that
the driver do it.

This patch does not advertise SCTP checksum offloading
capability for now, but it could be handled later if the
need arises.

[PATCH v2 6/6] net/vhost: perform SW checksum in Tx path

[Maxime Coquelin]

Virtio specification supports guest checksum offloading
for L4, which is enabled with VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_CSUM
feature negotiation. However, the Vhost PMD does not
advertise Tx checksum offload capabilities.

Advertising these offload capabilities at the ethdev level
is not enough, because we could still end-up with the
application enabling these offloads while the guest not
negotiating it.

This patch advertises the Tx checksum offload capabilities,
and introduces a compatibility layer to cover the case
VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_CSUM has not been negotiated but the
application does configure the Tx checksum offloads. This
function performs the L4 Tx checksum in SW for UDP and TCP.
Compared to Rx SW checksum, the Tx SW checksum function
needs to compute the pseudo-header checksum, as we cannot
know whether it was done before.

This patch does not advertise SCTP checksum offloading
capability for now, but it could be handled later if the
need arises.
