The name of default filter-buffer is 'nop'. For the default filter-buffer, it will not buffer any packets in default. So it has no side effect for the netdev. Signed-off-by: zhanghailiang <address@hidden> Cc: Jason Wang <address@hidden> Cc: Yang Hongyang <address@hidden>This patch did three things: 1) the ability to enable or disable a netfilter 2) the ability to add a default filter 3) default filter attaching for filter-buffer Better to split them into separate small patches. And several questions: For 1), I'm not sure this is real needed, we can in fact disable a filter by removing it.If we do like this, do we also need to _enable_ the buffer filter by add it dynamically instead of attaching the default filter ? Just like what we do in V10 ? (In that series, you think have a default filter may be better. The main reason for that is to support hot-add nic. Since we didn't support hot-add nic during COLO, it will be OK to add default filter dynamically)Aha, right. So rethinking of this, enabling/disabling a filter looks ok to me.For 2), Instead of a specific code just for filter buffer, I think we need a generic method for an arbitrary filter to be used as default.Good idea.And if we can achieve 2), 3) is not needed any more.--- v12: - Skip vhost-net when add default filter - Don't go through filter layer if the filter is disabled. v11: - New patch --- include/net/filter.h | 10 +++++++ net/filter-buffer.c | 82 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ net/filter.c | 6 +++- net/net.c | 12 ++++++++ 4 files changed, 109 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-)[...]+/* +* This will be used by COLO or MC FT, for which they will need +* to buffer the packets of VM's net devices, Here we add a default +* buffer filter for each netdev.

E.g during netdev init, query if there's a default and do the initialization there.We call it in net_client_init1(), i don't find a better place to call it, what's your suggestion ?net_client_init1() is ok, just need a generic way. E.g a string which stores the default filter and its parameters which could be queried by default filter initialization function.Hmm, i'm still confused about how to realize this, do you mean change this helper to a more generic function ? Just like : void netdev_add_filter(const char *netdev_id, const char *filter_type, char *id, Error **errp) Could you please give me more detail about how to realize it ? :)I mean you need to know the type of default filter before calling netdev_add_filter(). May need a global pointer for this, and colo may set this during initialization. And in the future, we may allow this to be set from cli.
Got it, i will fix it, thanks!

You can make something like enabled locally to filter buffer, and let it to be used by colo only.I have convert it to use object property to set/get the value, is that OK ? Thanks, HailiangIt's ok. .
