[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v11 00/12] Add a netfilter object and netbuffer filter

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v11 00/12] Add a netfilter object and netbuffer filter

[Yang Hongyang]

This patch add an netfilter abstract object, captures all network packets
on associated netdev. Also implement a concrete filter buffer based on
this abstract object. the "buffer" netfilter could be used by VM FT solutions
like MicroCheckpointing, to buffer/release packets. Or to simulate
packet delay.

You can also get the series from:
https://github.com/macrosheep/qemu/tree/netfilter-v11

Usage:
 -netdev tap,id=bn0
 -device e1000,netdev=bn0
 -object filter-buffer,id=f0,netdev=bn0,chain=in,interval=1000

dynamically add/remove netfilters:
 object_add filter-buffer,id=f0,netdev=bn0,chain=in,interval=1000
 object_del f0

NOTE:
 interval's scale is microsecond.
 chain is optional, and is one of in|out|all, default is "all".
       "in" means this filter will receive packets sent to the @netdev
       "out" means this filter will receive packets sent from the @netdev
       "all" means this filter will receive packets both sent to/from
             the @netdev

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v11 01/12] qmp: delete qemu opts when delete an object

[Yang Hongyang]

When delete an object, we need to delete the associated qemu opts,
otherwise, we can not add another object with the same name using
object_add.
The case happens when we start qemu with:
-object xxx,id=aa
then we delete this object with:
object_del aa
then add the object with:
object_add xxx,id=aa

QEMU will return error with Duplicate ID error.

This has finally reached the front of my review queue.  I apologize for
the loooong delay.

Copying Paolo for another pair of eyeballs (he wrote this code).

qemu_find_opts_err("object", &error_abort) please, because when it
fails, we want to die right away, not when the null pointer it returns
gets dereferenced.

Same sloppiness in netdev_del_completion() and qmp_netdev_del(), not
your patch's fault.

Elsewhere, we store the QemuOpts in the object just so we can delete it:
DeviceState, DriveInfo.  Paolo, what do you think?

Thanks for the review.
Jason, do you want me to propose a fix on top of this series or simply drop
this for now because this patch is an independent bug fix and won't affect the
other filter patch series.

I don't get it. Currently, only objects created at the beginning through
QEMU command line will be stored in the QemuOpts, objects that created
with object_add won't stored in QemuOpts. Do you mean for DeviceState,
DriveInfo they store there QemuOpts explicity so that they can delete it?
Why don't we just delete it from objects directly instead?

Let me elaborate.

We have the same pattern in multiple places: some kind of object gets
configured via QemuOpts, and an object's QemuOpts need to stay around
until the object dies.

Example 1: Block device backends

    DriveInfo has a member opts.

    drive_new() stores the QemuOpts in dinfo->opts.

    drive_info_del() destroys dinfo->opts.

    Note: DriveInfo member opts is always non-null.  But not every
    BlockBackend has a DriveInfo.

Example 2: Device frontends

    DeviceState has a member opts.

    qdev_device_add() stores the QemuOpts in dev->opts.

    device_finalize() destroys dev->opts.

    Note: DeviceState member opts may be null (not every device is
    created by qdev_device_add()).  Fine, because qemu_opts_del(NULL) is
    a no-op.

Example 3: Character device backends

    CharDriverState has a member opts.

    qemu_chr_new_from_opts() stores the QemuOpts in chr->opts.

    qemu_chr_delete() destroys chr->opts.

Example 4: Network device backends

    Two cases

    A. netdev

       qmp_netdev_add() does not store the QemuOpts.

       qmp_netdev_del() still needs to destroy it.  It has to find it
       somehow.  Here's how it does it:

           opts = qemu_opts_find(qemu_find_opts_err("netdev", NULL), id);
           if (!opts) {
               error_setg(errp, "Device '%s' is not a netdev", id);
               return;
           }

       The !opts condition is a non-obvious way to test "not created
       with -netdev", see commit 645c949.  Note that the commit's claim
       that qemu_opts_del(NULL) crashes is no longer true since commit
       4782183.

    B. Legacy net

       hmp_host_net_add() does not store the QemuOpts.

       hmp_host_net_remove() still needs to destroy it.  I can't see
       where that happens, and I'm not sure it does.

Example 5: Generic object

    object_create() does not store the QemuOpts.

    It still needs to be destroyed along with the object.  It isn't, and
    your patch fixes it.

Personally, I find the technique in example 1-3 easier to understand
than the one in example 4-5.

1-3 store there ops in there own state, not in global ops group right?

I'm afraid it does store the QemuOpts, but not in it's own state.
net/net.c:
1088     qemu_opt_set(opts, "type", device, &error_abort);
This will store the QemuOpts, or am I misunderstood it?

I agree that opts should not be used to determine not created something
while there's case when something created but Opts not stored.

Both!  But keeping a pointer in their own state simplifies calling
qemu_opts_del() on destruction, and also makes it more obvious what is
keeping the QemuOpts alive.

Doesn't store opts anywhere, actually.  It merely modifies it (adds a
parameter "type")

As you said "store" means store in there own state, then I see...thanks

The QemuOpts stored by qmp_netdev_add() and also hmp_netdev_add().
through this function:
net/net.c: qmp_netdev_add()
1134     opts = qemu_opts_from_qdict(opts_list, qdict, &local_err);

hmp.c: hmp_netdev_add()
1579     opts = qemu_opts_from_qdict(qemu_find_opts("netdev"), qdict, &err);

That's where the QemuOpts are created.  By "does not store" I mean "does
not store in its own state, unlike example 1-3".

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v11 02/12] init/cleanup of netfilter object

[Yang Hongyang]

Add a netfilter object based on QOM.

A netfilter is attached to a netdev, captures all network packets
that pass through the netdev. When we delete the netdev, we also
delete the netfilter object attached to it, because if the netdev is
removed, the filter which attached to it is useless.

QTAILQ_ENTRY next used by netdev, filter belongs to the specific netdev is
in this queue.

Also init delayed object after net_init_clients, because netfilters need
to be initialized after net clients initialized.

Signed-off-by: Yang Hongyang <yanghy@cn.fujitsu.com>
---
v11: no need to free nf->netdev_id, it will be auto freeed while object deleted
     remove global_list net_filters, will add back when needed
v10: use QOM for netfilter
v9: use flat union instead of simple union in QAPI schema
v8: include vhost_net header
v7: add check for vhost
    fix error propagate bug
v6: add multiqueue support (net_filter_init1)
v5: remove model from NetFilterState
    add a sent_cb param to receive_iov API

Grammar. Maybe:

This enum describes which packets are being tracked by a netfilter chain
attached as a filter to a netdev object.

I don't see any other QMP usage of this enum anywhere in the series. Are
you planning on supporting QMP?  If so, let's get that design discussion
started.  If not, why not?

In particular, you may want to base things on top of my work to make QMP
'netdev_add' a full-fledged introspectible command (still pending some
qapi commits landing upstream):

This series is based on QOM, so the QMP command for object_add
will use this enum, for example:
   1 { "execute": "qmp_capabilities" }
   2 { "execute": "object-add",
   3              "arguments": { "qom-type": "filter-buffer",
   4                             "id": "f0",
   5                             "props": { "netdev": "bn0",
   6                                        "chain": "in",
   7                                        "interval": 2000 } } }

for hmp:
object_add filter-buffer,id=f0,netdev=bn0,chain=in,interval=1000

command options:
-object filter-buffer,id=f0,netdev=bn0,chain=in,interval=1000

Do these examples appear in the documentation anywhere?  If not, it is
worth considering (maybe under 'object-add' in qmp-commands.hx, for
example).

Yes, example is added in the 9th patch, under qemu-options.hx.

I don't get this paragraph.  Not sure it's needed.

A paragraph starting with "Also" in a commit message is a pretty good
sign the patch should be split :)

Not splitting the declaration is more concise:

    typedef struct {
        ObjectClass parent_class;
        FilterSetup *setup;
        FilterCleanup *cleanup;
        FilterReceiveIOV *receive_iov;
    } NetFilterClass;

Are any of the methods optional?  If yes, please add suitable comments.

How can nf->netdev be null?

How can nf->netdev->filters be empty?

Putting netfilter_finalize() after netfilter_complete() would be easier
to understand, because then destruction follows creation.

We spell this multiqueue elsewhere.

Since you're only interested in a single queue, you could save stack
space by making ncs[] just one element large.  Not worth it if you
intend to support multiqueue soon.

I think I'd create netdev functions to add and remove filters, so the
filter code doesn't have to modify the netdev state.  Right now,
NetClientState member filters is initialized in net.c, but modified
here.  But I'm not the net maintainer :)

Uh, inhowfar is this a "chain"?  As far as I can tell, it specifies
whether a netfilter is attached to the transmit queue, the receive
queue, or both.

This confused me briefly, until I realized the context.  You mean

I'd make this code motion a separate patch, to make it more prominent in
git-log.

The rest of the patch is harmless: it creates a new abstact class.

The code motion isn't: it actually changes behavior.

Overall, patch is neatly done.

Yes, it's optional, as well as setup, if a concrete filter do
not have things to setup/cleanup.

When object initialize failed. for example, in netfilter_complete
no nf->netdev_id provided, object initialize will fail, and the
netfilter_finalize will be called, at the mean time,
nf->netdev is null, and nf->netdev->filters is empty.

netback's input chain or output chain, queue is mostly like a word that
related to the code implementation? English is not my first language, so
I'm not sure about this.

Don't worry, we'll get the language polished together :)

In PATCH 9, I learned how this is to be used:

    @item -object filter-buffer,id=@var{id},netdev=@var{netdevid}[,chain=@var{all|in|out}][,interval=@var{t}]

    Buffer network packets on netdev @var{netdevid}.
[...]
    chain @var{all|in|out} is an option that can be applied to any netfilter, default is @option{all}.

    @option{all} means this filter will receive packets both sent to/from the netdev

    @option{in} means this filter will receive packets sent to the netdev

    @option{out} means this filter will receive packets sent from the netdev

In that context, "chain" makes more sense.  I'd still call it "queue".
Precedence: -netdev parameter "queues".  If I understand correctly,
queues=N asks for N rx and tx queues.  A filter would either apply to
all N rx queues, all N tx queues, or all 2*N queues.  Correct?

[...]

reconsider "queue=all".

Call the enumeration type NetFilterDirection instead of NetFilterChain.

qemu_deliver_packet_iov already have the compat delivery, we
can drop qemu_deliver_packet.

Then for net clients that doesn't support receive_iov, an extra memcpy
is introduced. This seems unnecessary. And this patch looks independent,
so please drop this patch from the series (This can also help to reduce
the iteration). I think we may need this after all net clients support
receive_iov().

This patch is required by the next patch which introduce a
+/* Returns:
+ *   >0 - success
+ *    0 - queue packet for future redelivery
+ *   <0 - failure (discard packet)
+ */
+typedef ssize_t (NetQueueDeliverFunc)(NetClientState *sender,
+                                      unsigned flags,
+                                      const struct iovec *iov,
+                                      int iovcnt,
+                                      void *opaque);

If we drop this patch, we will need to introduce 2 deliver func, which
seems not clean and simple.

Then you can probably skip the iov_to_buf() if iov_cnt is one in the
above code?

Seems like a good idea to avoid the extra memcpy, thank you! BTW,
can I do this on top of the series if there's no other comments?

Better squash the changes in this patch or another independent patch
before this patch. (We don't want to break bisection).

Ok, will do.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v11 05/12] net/queue: introduce NetQueueDeliverFunc

[Yang Hongyang]

net/queue.c has logic to send/queue/flush packets but a
qemu_deliver_packet_iov() call is hardcoded. Abstract this
func so that we can use our own deliver function in netfilter.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v11 09/12] netfilter: add a netbuffer filter

[Yang Hongyang]

This filter is to buffer/release packets, this feature can be used
when using MicroCheckpointing, or other Remus like VM FT solutions, you
can also use it to simulate the network delay.
It has an interval option, if supplied, this filter will release
packets by interval.

Usage:
 -netdev tap,id=bn0
 -object filter-buffer,id=f0,netdev=bn0,chain=in,interval=1000

NOTE:
 the scale of interval is microsecond.

Suggest "will delay packets by that time interval."

Is interval really optional?

Perhaps "interval is in microseconds".

This either flushes or purges incoming_queue, where "purge" means
dropping packets.  Correct?

Is purging correct here?

Timer rearmed to fire again in s->interval microseconds.

If you end a sentence with a period, you get to start it with a capital
letter :)

"there're" is odd.  Perhaps something like "We may want to accept zero
interval when VM FT solutions like MC or COLO use this filter to release
packets on demand."

How can this happen?  Doesn't filter_buffer_set_interval() catch zero
intervals already?

Condition cannot be false.  Same in filter_buffer_cleanup().

Timer armed to fire in s->interval microseconds.

Unless I misunderstand something, this doesn't actually delay each
packet by s->interval microseconds, it batches packet delivery: all
packets arriving in a given interval are delayed until the end of the
interval.  Correct?

What does it take?  That's what the user wants to know...  Perhaps
"Property '%s.%s' requires a positive value".

Remus is an opensource VM FT solution:
paper: http://http//www.cs.ubc.ca/~andy/papers/remus-nsdi-final.pdf
First implemented on Xen:
http://wiki.xen.org/wiki/Remus

MicroCheckpointing in QEMU is another Remus implementation.

It supposed to be optional. When the buffer filter has a user:
http://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2015-09/msg00363.html

In this patchset, the zero interval check is removed. packets are
released on demand through filter_buffer_release_all() api call.

I think it is correct. Dropping packets is allowed, even on real

When user do not supply an interval parameter, filter_buffer_set_interval()
won't be called, and the interval is 0.
When we have actual user like I mentioned above, we should allow user to omit
the interval option.

When we omit t, filter_buffer_set_interval() won't be called.

For example. For some reason, receiver could not receive more packets
(.can_receive() returns zero). Without a filter, at most one packet will
be queued in incoming queue and sender's poll will be disabled unit its
sent_cb() was called. With a filter, it will keep receive the packets
without caring about the receiver. This is suboptimal. May need more
thoughts (e.g keeping sent_cb).

Understand.  But is interval optional right at this point in this patch

When the timer expires, we flush as many buffered packets as we can,
then throw away the rest.  Why throw them away?  Shouldn't we leave them
in the buffer, and only throw away packets when the buffer is full?

Let's see whether I understand.

If you specify a non-zero interval, filter_buffer_set_interval() stores
it.

If you specify a zero interval, filter_buffer_set_interval() rejects it.

If you specify no interval, it defaults to zero, and
filter_buffer_setup() fails right here.

Therefore, interval is not optional right now.

Correct?

May need a "FIXME" or "TODO" here. I think this is for simplicity. We
could queue the packet if the receiver or next filter could not receive
packets. But currently there's no way for the next filter or recivier to
notify us that it can receive more packet. This could be done in the future.

Good enough for me.  Make it FIXME if purging packets is actually wrong,
else TODO.

It's not, will remove this optional description although we
will make it optional soon.

I think the comment should explain why the code is return false here,
not what the code is doing (which is obvious). So maybe something like:

    /*
     * netfilters require that the corresponding
     * netdevs are already existing
     */

?

I think as soon as there's one, how to add more is obvious enough.

That explains *why* netfilters need to be initialized late.  More
useful.

The pre-existing case is explained in the function comment.  Which
becomes misleading at this point.

    /*
     * Can @type objects be created during initial object creation?
     * Initial object creation happens before all other QEMU data types
     * are created.  The majority of objects can be created at this
     * point.  Some can't, because the depend on other things already
     * existing.
     */
    static bool object_create_initial(const char *type)
    {
        /* rng-egd depends on its chardev already existing */
        if (g_str_equal(type, "rng-egd")) {
            return false;
        }

        /* Net filters depend on their netdev */
        if (g_str_equal(type, "filter-buffer")) {
            return false;
        }

        return true;
    }

Having to enumerate alll the net filter names here isn't nice.  An "is
subtype of TYPE_NETFILTER" test would be better.  Can't say whether it's
practical.

Of course, the real solution is to create objects either in topological
or in command line order, but that's not in the cards right now.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v11 10/12] tests: add test cases for netfilter object

[Yang Hongyang]

Using qtest qmp interface to implement following cases:
1) add/remove netfilter
2) add a netfilter then delete the netdev
3) add/remove more than one netfilters
4) add more than one netfilters and then delete the netdev

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v11 11/12] netfilter/multiqueue: introduce netfilter name

[Yang Hongyang]

From: Yang Hongyang <burnef@gmail.com>

We will add multiple netfilter objects when using object_add id=xxx attach
a filter to a multiqueue enabled netdev. The multiple objects should have
different object id, but the filter name should be the same. Introduce
netfilter name to identify the netfilters.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v11 12/12] netfilter: add multiqueue support

[Yang Hongyang]

From: Yang Hongyang <burnef@gmail.com>

add multiqueue support, if there's multiqueue, we add multi netfilter
objects, other netfilter objects is the child of the first added netfilter
object. So when we delete a netfilter, the other netfilter objects we
added will be automatically deleted.

I'm thinking whether or not duplicate all the properties in each
netfilters is a good method. Maybe we can have a another ojbect with
array of pointers to NetFilter objects embedded? Another question is
whether or not we need to do this at this level. Maybe we can make the
necessary Netfilter multiqueue aware. E.g let buffer filter to have
multiqueue also? Then you may only need a single timer?

To reduce the review iterations, I suggest to drop the patch also.
Multiqueue support could be another series on top.

netfilter_complete() only called once when we add a netfilter. So in this
func, we can create the same filter object if there's multiqueue.

Seems not. see above object_unref(), if we come to

Maybe I miss something. But there's still refcnt for objects created in
previous iters? (I mean object_property_add_child() will add another
refcnt?)

This is intended, parent need to hold a refcnt of it's child. When we
delete the parent, it will release the child refcnt, and it's child obj will be
automatically deleted because the refcnt is decreased to 0.
The object_unref() release the refcnt hold by object_new().

Sorry I don't get it at first. I also thought about make the buffer filter to
have multiqueue, but there comes problem, how to distinguish which queue
we should go in when receive the packet, we need to add a mechanism to
distinguish which queue belongs to which net client's queue, that will
be more complex, while current multiqueue implementation of net clients
is multiple net clients with the same name, current solution is the simplest
solution I can think of...

I'm not sure I get this. But there's a queue_index filed in each
NetClientState which may help in this case.

Ah, I see, thank you. There's another reason I do this in filter abstract
layer is that the concrete filter implementation do not need to deal with the
multiqueue, will simplify the filter implement a lot, otherwise, every
filter need to implement it's own multiqueue support.

Probably not, just pointing all queues to a single netfilter object may
be sufficient (e.g for dump). And it's much easier for some kind of
filter (e.g traffic throttling) if it was multiqueue aware.

I see, will think about doing this other way, thank you!

Want to merge this. But have comments on patch 4 and multiqueue patches.
I suggest to drop them in next version so I can merge to reduce the
review iterations. Other optimizations and fixups could be done on top.

Thanks

Thanks a lot! I agree that we could drop the last 2 patches
which introduce multiqueue support, but the patch 4 is required by the
following patch, so we can not simply drop it, please see my reply, thank you.
