[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/2] virtio_net: allow hypervisor to indicate linkspeed and duplex setting

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/2] virtio_net: allow hypervisor to indicate linkspeed and duplex setting

[Jason Baron]

We have found it useful to be able to set the linkspeed and duplex
settings from the host-side for virtio_net. This obviates the need
for guest changes and settings for these fields.

The ability to set linkspeed and duplex was introduced by:

16032be virtio_net: add ethtool support for set and get of settings

And using 'ethtool -s' continues to over-write the linkspeed/duplex
settings with this patch.

The 1/2 patch is against net-next, while the 2/2 patch is the associated
qemu changes that would go in after as update-linux-headers.sh should
be run first. So 2/2 is more meant as a demonstration of how I intend this
to work.

Thanks,

-Jason

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH 2/2] qemu: add linkspeed and duplex setting to virtio-net

[Jason Baron]

Although they can be currently set in linux via 'ethtool -s', this requires
guest changes, and thus it would be nice to extend this functionality such
that it can be configured automatically from the host (as other network
do).

Linkspeed and duplex settings can be set as:
'-device virtio-net,speed=10000,duplex=full'

where speed is [-1...INT_MAX], and duplex is ["half"|"full"].

From Windows guest perspective I prefer to have some reasonable default (10G for example).

hmmm, I didn't want to change/set the default here in case it broke
something, but I'm ok setting it to some 'reasonable' value - (10G and
duplex?), if the consensus is that that would be safe.

I presume your speaking for windows - i'm wondering if under linux the
virtio device suddenly start showing up as duplex, 10Gbps, will that
break anything? I can speak for the use-cases we have here and that
would certainly be fine for us, but i'm really not sure if that is ok
more generally.

We may still want "unknown" here as a setting, because otherwise we
can't support dynamically changing the speed later (if we added say a
qmp monitor command), because the flag would not have been set.

So I am ok with the 10Gps and full duplex defaults, if at least one of
'speed=' or 'duplex=' is supplied, but I would prefer to leave the
"unknown" values as a setting (to still potentially allow dynamic
updates in this case).

That's fine. And I really think we should leave defaults to unknown
and not 10G.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH net-next 1/2] virtio_net: allow hypervisor to indicate linkspeed and duplex setting

[Jason Baron]

If the hypervisor exports the link and duplex speed, let's use that instead
of the default unknown speed. The user can still overwrite it later if
desired via: 'ethtool -s'. This allows the hypervisor to set the default
link speed and duplex setting without requiring guest changes and is
consistent with how other network drivers operate. We ran into some cases
where the guest software was failing due to a lack of linkspeed and had to
fall back to a fully emulated network device that does export a linkspeed
and duplex setting.

Implement by adding a new VIRTIO_NET_F_SPEED_DUPLEX feature flag, to
indicate that a linkspeed and duplex setting are present.

Sounds fine, but please register the new feature bit
with the virtio TC by sending en email to the virtio
mailing list (subscriber only, wish I could fix that).

We do not want conflicts there.

How are we going to validate speed values? Imagine host
using a new 1000Gbit device and exposing that to guest.

Need to think what do we want guest to do.
I think that ideally we'd say it's a 100Gbit device.

For duplex, force to one of 3 valid values?

I think I'd prefer a high feature bit - low bits are ones that can
be backported to legacy interfaces, so I think we should hang on to
these for fixing issues that break communication completely (like the
mtu).

So I didn't provide validation here b/c as you point out its not clear
how we would validate it. I don't believe h/w drivers do any validation
here either. They simply propagate the value from the the underlying
device. So that seemed reasonable to me.

Why do you divide by 10 in the above example? Would you propose always
dividing what the device reports by 10?

So I went with a low bit here b/c in the virtio spec 'section 2.2
Feature Bits':


 0 to 23
    Feature bits for the specific device type
24 to 32
    Feature bits reserved for extensions to the queue and feature
negotiation mechanisms
33 and above
    Feature bits reserved for future extensions.

So virtio_net already goes up to 23 (but omits 4 and 6), and I wasn't
sure if it was reasonable to use the higher bits. It looks like the code
would handle the higher bits ok, so I can try that - bit 33 perhaps ?

Thanks,

-Jason

Right but hardware tends not to change as quickly as the hypervisors :)
For virtual device drivers, we need some way to handle forward
compatibility since hypervisors do change quite quickly.

No, that was just an example. I was just suggesting rounding down to
next valid known speed.

Transports started from bit 24 and are growing up.
So I would say devices should start from bit 63 and grow down.

I see, but virtio currently uses ethtool_validate_speed() which allows
arbitrary values up to INT_MAX in units of Mbps. That seems to leave
plenty of headroom. So I could use that function for validation as well
as well as ethtool_validate_duplex() and if they fail fall back to
SPEED_UNKNOWN and DUPLEX_UNKNOWN?
