[RFC PATCH net-next v5 3/4] virtio_net: Extend virtio to use VF datapath when available

"backup" : "active");Bypass module should check if there is already some other netdev enslaved and refuse right there. The active/backup terminology is quite confusing. From the bonding world that means active is the one which is currently used for tx of the packets. And it depends on link and other things what netdev is declared active. However here, it is different. Backup is always the virtio_net instance even when it is active. Odd. Please change the terminology. For "active" I suggest to use name "stolen". *** Also, the 2 slave netdev pointers should be stored in the bypass module instance, not in the drivers.>+ return -EEXIST; >+ } >+ >+ dev_hold(child_netdev); >+ >+ if (backup) { >+ rcu_assign_pointer(vbi->backup_netdev, child_netdev); >+ dev_get_stats(vbi->backup_netdev, &vbi->backup_stats); >+ } else { >+ rcu_assign_pointer(vbi->active_netdev, child_netdev); >+ dev_get_stats(vbi->active_netdev, &vbi->active_stats); >+ bypass_netdev->min_mtu = child_netdev->min_mtu; >+ bypass_netdev->max_mtu = child_netdev->max_mtu; >+ } >+ >+ netdev_info(bypass_netdev, "child:%s joined\n", child_netdev->name); >+ >+ return 0; >+} >+ >+static int virtnet_bypass_register_child(struct net_device *bypass_netdev, >+ struct net_device *child_netdev) >+{ >+ struct virtnet_bypass_info *vbi; >+ bool backup; >+ >+ vbi = netdev_priv(bypass_netdev); >+ backup = (child_netdev->dev.parent == bypass_netdev->dev.parent); >+ if (backup ? rtnl_dereference(vbi->backup_netdev) : >+ rtnl_dereference(vbi->active_netdev)) { >+ netdev_info(bypass_netdev, >+ "%s attempting to register bypass dev when %s already present\n", >+ child_netdev->name, backup ?

It is odd because here you assume that the bypass module passed "ndev" and rx_handler_data. Also, you don't need advanced features rx_handler provides. Instead, just register a common rx_handler defined in the bypass module and have simple skb_rx callback here (static void).>+ >+static const struct bypass_ops virtnet_bypass_ops = { >+ .register_child = virtnet_bypass_register_child, >+ .join_child = virtnet_bypass_join_child, >+ .unregister_child = virtnet_bypass_unregister_child, >+ .release_child = virtnet_bypass_release_child, >+ .update_link = virtnet_bypass_update_link, >+ .handle_frame = virtnet_bypass_handle_frame, >+}; >+ >+static struct bypass *virtnet_bypass; >+ >+static int virtnet_bypass_create(struct virtnet_info *vi) >+{ >+ struct net_device *backup_netdev = vi->dev; >+ struct device *dev = &vi->vdev->dev; >+ struct net_device *bypass_netdev; >+ int res; >+ >+ /* Alloc at least 2 queues, for now we are going with 16 assuming >+ * that most devices being bonded won't have too many queues. >+ */ >+ bypass_netdev = alloc_etherdev_mq(sizeof(struct virtnet_bypass_info), >+ 16); >+ if (!bypass_netdev) { >+ dev_err(dev, "Unable to allocate bypass_netdev!\n"); >+ return -ENOMEM; >+ } >+ >+ dev_net_set(bypass_netdev, dev_net(backup_netdev)); >+ SET_NETDEV_DEV(bypass_netdev, dev); >+ >+ bypass_netdev->netdev_ops = &virtnet_bypass_netdev_ops; >+ bypass_netdev->ethtool_ops = &virtnet_bypass_ethtool_ops; >+ >+ /* Initialize the device options */ >+ bypass_netdev->flags |= IFF_MASTER;I think I pointed that out already. Don't use "IFF_MASTER". That is specific to bonding. As I suggested in the reply to the patch #2, you should introduce IFF_BYPASS. Also, this flag should be set by the bypass module. Just create the netdev and do things specific to virtio and then call to bypass module, pass the netdev so it can do the rest. I think that the flags, features etc would be also fine to set there.>+ bypass_netdev->priv_flags |= IFF_UNICAST_FLT | IFF_NO_QUEUE; >+ bypass_netdev->priv_flags &= ~(IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE | >+ IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING); >+ >+ /* don't acquire bypass netdev's netif_tx_lock when transmitting */ >+ bypass_netdev->features |= NETIF_F_LLTX; >+ >+ /* Don't allow bypass devices to change network namespaces. */ >+ bypass_netdev->features |= NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL; >+ >+ bypass_netdev->hw_features = NETIF_F_HW_CSUM | NETIF_F_SG | >+ NETIF_F_FRAGLIST | NETIF_F_ALL_TSO | >+ NETIF_F_HIGHDMA | NETIF_F_LRO; >+ >+ bypass_netdev->hw_features |= NETIF_F_GSO_ENCAP_ALL; >+ bypass_netdev->features |= bypass_netdev->hw_features; >+ >+ /* For now treat bypass netdev as VLAN challenged since we >+ * cannot assume VLAN functionality with a VFWhy?

Will add a flag while registering with the bypass module to indicate if the driver is doing a 2 netdev or 3 netdev model and based on that flag this check can be done in bypass module for 3 netdev scenario.> > The active/backup terminology is quite confusing.

What I expect the difference would be between 2netdev and3 netdev model is this: 2netdev: bypass_master / / VF_slave 3netdev: bypass_master / \ / \ VF_slave backup_slave Is that correct? If not, how does it look like? Thanks!
