Subject: [net PATCH 4/4] virtio_net: fix ndo_xdp_xmit crash towards dev not ready for XDP
Date: Tue, 20 Feb 2018 14:32:20 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <151913354012.28247.1462800242440559823.stgit@firesoul> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <151913348634.28247.17519468037896960567.stgit@firesoul>

When a driver implements the ndo_xdp_xmit() function, there is
(currently) no generic way to determine whether it is safe to call.

It is e.g. unsafe to call the drivers ndo_xdp_xmit, if it have not
allocated the needed XDP TX queues yet.  This is the case for
virtio_net, which first allocates the XDP TX queues once an XDP/bpf
prog is attached (in virtnet_xdp_set()).

Thus, a crash will occur for virtio_net when redirecting to another
virtio_net device's ndo_xdp_xmit, which have not attached a XDP prog.
The sample xdp_redirect_map tries to attach a dummy XDP prog to take
this into account, but it can also easily fail if the virtio_net (or
actually underlying vhost driver) have not allocated enough extra
queues for the device.

Allocating more queue this is currently a manual config.
Hint for libvirt XML add:

  <driver name='vhost' queues='16'>
    <host mrg_rxbuf='off'/>
    <guest tso4='off' tso6='off' ecn='off' ufo='off'/>
  </driver>

The solution in this patch is to check that the device have loaded an
XDP/bpf prog before proceeding.  This is similar to the check
performed in driver ixgbe.
