[PATCH v3 0/1] virtio_bt: Fix alignment in configuration struct

[PATCH v3 0/1] virtio_bt: Fix alignment in configuration struct

[Igor Skalkin]

According to specification [1], "For the device-specific configuration
space, the driver MUST use 8 bit wide accesses for 8 bit wide fields,
16 bit wide and aligned accesses for 16 bit wide fields and 32 bit wide
and aligned accesses for 32 and 64 bit wide fields.".

Current version of the configuration structure has non-aligned 16bit
fields.

This patch adds a second, aligned  version of the configuration structure
and a new feature bit indicating that this version is being used.

[1] https://docs.oasis-open.org/virtio/virtio/v1.1/virtio-v1.1.pdf

Changes in v3:
  v2 had been sent from the wrong address, fixed.
Changes in v2:
  The first version of this patch just changed the configuration
  structure in uapi/linux/virtio_bt.h
  This can not be done, because it will break the userspace, so the
  second version offers a less radical approach - it introduces a new
  feature bit and a new configuration structure that both the device
  and the driver will use if this bit is negotiated.

[PATCH v3 1/1] virtio_bt: Fix alignment in configuration struct

[Igor Skalkin]

The current version of the configuration structure has unaligned
16-bit fields, but according to the specification [1], access to
the configuration space must be aligned.

Add a second, aligned  version of the configuration structure
and a new feature bit indicating that this version is being used.

So this introduces a new flag which must be checked when attempting to
config, right? But is this backward compatible? What happens if for
some reason the userspace doesn't use the new struct are we able to
detect that?

Yes, it's backwards compatible.

[q]Each virtio device offers all the features it understands. During
device initialization, the driver reads this and tells the device the
subset that it accepts. The only way to renegotiate is to reset the device.
This allows for forwards and backwards compatibility: if the device is
enhanced with a new feature bit, older drivers will not write that
feature bit back to the device. Similarly, if a driver is enhanced with
a feature that the device doesn’t support, it see the new feature is not
offered.[/q]

So, in our case:

old device - new driver:
The device does not offer VIRTIO_BT_F_CONFIG_V2 feature and uses the old
configuration structure.
The driver also uses the old configuration structure because
VIRTIO_BT_F_CONFIG_V2 bit was not negotiated.

new device - old driver:
The device offers this bit, the driver reads it but cannot support it,
so it does not write this bit back to the device during feature negotiation.
The device verifies that this bit is not negotiated and continues to use
the old configuration structure.


I tested this patch, it
a) works fine with a new device that supports VIRTIO_BT_F_CONFIG_V2.
b) uses the old configuration structure when working with an old device.
   Our device does not offer the VIRTIO_BT_F_VND_HCI feature bit, so the
driver does not tries to read unaligned "vendor" and "msft_opcode"
fields and everything is fine.
But, if the VIRTIO_BT_F_VND_HCI feature is set for the device for test
purposes, our middle layer asserts unaligned accesses to the
configuration space.

P.S. But, as Michael S. Tsirkin rightly stated, [q]Will a spec patch be
forthcoming?[/q], this patch requires a specification update.
I could not find any virtio_bt specification, do you have one?
That would be great. Otherwise, would you mind if I try to write some
initial draft?

Great, thanks for the explanation.

Yep, I don't think we have one so feel free to start one, also while
at it we could perhaps attempt to write a tester for it so we can test
it using our CI, assuming virtio works with virtual devices created by
vhci driver.

subject should be v4 but besides that, ok.
Will a spec patch be forthcoming?
