When it resets the max_mtu I guess it needs to read the mtu via virtio_cread16(vdev, ...) or we may break the negotiated mtu. As for capping it at GOOD_PACKET_LEN this has the nice benefit of avoiding any underestimates in EWMA predictions because it appears min estimates are capped at GOOD_PACKET_LEN via get_mergeable_buf_len().

Although the guest by reducing its MTU in some sense must expect this. Likewise if the host were to change MTU after virtio_net probe time the guest would not learn about it. I think at best negotiating the mtu is just a hint? If system _really_ cares we could use lldp or some other out of band mechanism to learn/set/adjust MTU on both systems and it would be more robust. I'm not actually convinced this is a problem in bare metal systems we have the same issue with physical switches and solve it out of band via configuration, protocols, etc. .John ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 21+ messages in thread

What place in code does this? > hmm in many of the drivers it is convention to use the mtu to set the rx buffer sizes and a receive side max length filter. For example in the Intel drivers if a packet with length greater than MTU + some headroom is received we drop it. I guess in the networking stack RX path though nothing forces this and virtio doesn't have any code to drop packets on rx size. In virtio I don't see any existing case currently. In the XDP case though we need to ensure packets fit in a page for the time being which is why I was looking at this code and generated this patch. >> Although the guest >> by reducing its MTU in some sense must expect this.

I'm fine with calling it a misconfiguration if the guest reduces the MTU and the host continues to send packets @ advertised MTU. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 21+ messages in thread

But, I'm looking at the non-XDP receive_small path now and wondering how does multiple buffer receives work (e.g. packet larger than GOOD_PACKET_LEN?) I think this is what Jason is looking at as well? The mergeable case clearly looks at num_bufs in the descriptor to construct multi-buffer packets but nothing like that exists in the small_receive path as best I can tell. .John ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 21+ messages in thread

BTW it was always a legacy path but if it's now important for people we should probably check ANY_LAYOUT and put header linearly with the packet if there. -- MST ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 21+ messages in thread

When it resets the max_mtu I guess it needs to read the mtu via virtio_cread16(vdev, ...) or we may break the negotiated mtu. As for capping it at GOOD_PACKET_LEN this has the nice benefit of avoiding any underestimates in EWMA predictions because it appears min estimates are capped at GOOD_PACKET_LEN via get_mergeable_buf_len().
