...sed the original patch. Shaun, any insight ? How did you intend to use it ? --- The second question is do you guys think that QEMU/KVM/LGUEST/etc would benefit if receive filtering was done by the host OS. Here is a specific example of what I'm talking about. We can do what qemu/hw/e1000.c:receive_filter() does in the _host_ context (that function currently runs in the guest context). By looking at libvirt, typical QEMU based setup is that you have a single bridge and all the TAPs from different VMs are hooked up to that bridge. What that means is that if one VM is getting MC traffic or when th...

This series is mainly for testing live migration between 2 vdpa_sim_blk devices. The first patch is preparation and moves the buffer allocation into devices, the second patch adds the `shared_buffer_mutex` parameter to vdpa_sim_blk to use the same ramdisk for all devices. Tested with QEMU v8.0.0-rc2 in this way: modprobe vhost_vdpa modprobe vdpa_sim_blk shared_backend=true vdpa dev add mgmtdev

Hello all: This seires is an update of last version of multiqueue support to add multiqueue capability to both tap and virtio-net. Some kinds of tap backends has (macvatp in linux) or would (tap) support multiqueue. In such kind of tap backend, each file descriptor of a tap is a qeueu and ioctls were prodived to attach an exist tap file descriptor to the tun/tap device. So the patch let qemu to

Hi All: This series tries to add the support for control virtqueue in vDPA. Control virtqueue is used by networking device for accepting various commands from the driver. It's a must to support multiqueue and other configurations. When used by vhost-vDPA bus driver for VM, the control virtqueue should be shadowed via userspace VMM (Qemu) instead of being assigned directly to Guest. This is
