Re: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] Unified Socket Transport

Subject: Re: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH] Unified Socket Transport

Hi Jason, hi list,

This is the first half (RX) of getting multi-message working for socket transports other than L2TPv3. I am looking at the second half (TX) as well as possibly moving the backend to something better than the legacy method(s).

As an example of where I would like this to go you can have a look at the UML patches which were posted yesterday:

http://marc.info/?l=user-mode-linux-devel&r=1&b=201707&w=2 - the 3 patches dated 2017-07-17

The UML implementation does the full set - RX/TX, DQL, BPF integration and scatter gather and I would like to reach a point where the QEMU implementation is feature and performance matched or better.

There are some instructions on setup as well as actual numbers at: http://foswiki.kot-begemot.co.uk/Main/EatYourOwnDogFood

A.

P.S.

This is an RFC - I would like some comments on how to organize multiple transports in the same driver, how it should look as far as qapi, etc. It should be possible to bring some of the existing code like half of net/socket.c under this umbrella as well.

A.

From: Anton Ivanov <address@hidden>

1. Creates a common recvmmsg backend for socket transports
2. Migrates L2TPv3 to the new backend
3. Adds gre socket transport - a vm can attach directly to GRE
4. Adds raw socket transport - a vm can attach directly to an
Ethernet interface
5. Adds simplistic static VXLAN tunnel transport (no
control plane).
6. Sets up some of the infrastructure for future addition of
sendmmsg
