17 * Older implementation of Xen network frontend / backend has an
18 * implicit dependency on the MAX_SKB_FRAGS as the maximum number of
19 * ring slots a skb can use. Netfront / netback may not work as
20 * expected when frontend and backend have different MAX_SKB_FRAGS.
22 * A better approach is to add mechanism for netfront / netback to
23 * negotiate this value. However we cannot fix all possible
24 * frontends, so we need to define a value which states the minimum
25 * slots backend must support.
27 * The minimum value derives from older Linux kernel's MAX_SKB_FRAGS
28 * (18), which is proved to work with most frontends. Any new backend
29 * which doesn't negotiate with frontend should expect frontend to
30 * send a valid packet using slots up to this value.
32 #define XEN_NETIF_NR_SLOTS_MIN 18
35 * Notifications after enqueuing any type of message should be conditional on
36 * the appropriate req_event or rsp_event field in the shared ring.
37 * If the client sends notification for rx requests then it should specify
38 * feature 'feature-rx-notify' via xenbus. Otherwise the backend will assume
39 * that it cannot safely queue packets (as it may not be kicked to send them).
43 * "feature-split-event-channels" is introduced to separate guest TX
44 * and RX notification. Backend either doesn't support this feature or
45 * advertises it via xenstore as 0 (disabled) or 1 (enabled).
47 * To make use of this feature, frontend should allocate two event
48 * channels for TX and RX, advertise them to backend as
49 * "event-channel-tx" and "event-channel-rx" respectively. If frontend
50 * doesn't want to use this feature, it just writes "event-channel"
55 * Multiple transmit and receive queues:
56 * If supported, the backend will write the key "multi-queue-max-queues" to
57 * the directory for that vif, and set its value to the maximum supported
59 * Frontends that are aware of this feature and wish to use it can write the
60 * key "multi-queue-num-queues", set to the number they wish to use, which
61 * must be greater than zero, and no more than the value reported by the backend
62 * in "multi-queue-max-queues".
64 * Queues replicate the shared rings and event channels.
65 * "feature-split-event-channels" may optionally be used when using
66 * multiple queues, but is not mandatory.
68 * Each queue consists of one shared ring pair, i.e. there must be the same
69 * number of tx and rx rings.
71 * For frontends requesting just one queue, the usual event-channel and
72 * ring-ref keys are written as before, simplifying the backend processing
73 * to avoid distinguishing between a frontend that doesn't understand the
74 * multi-queue feature, and one that does, but requested only one queue.
76 * Frontends requesting two or more queues must not write the toplevel
77 * event-channel (or event-channel-{tx,rx}) and {tx,rx}-ring-ref keys,
78 * instead writing those keys under sub-keys having the name "queue-N" where
79 * N is the integer ID of the queue for which those keys belong. Queues
80 * are indexed from zero. For example, a frontend with two queues and split
81 * event channels must write the following set of queue-related keys:
83 * /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/multi-queue-num-queues = "2"
84 * /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-0 = ""
85 * /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-0/tx-ring-ref = "<ring-ref-tx0>"
86 * /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-0/rx-ring-ref = "<ring-ref-rx0>"
87 * /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-0/event-channel-tx = "<evtchn-tx0>"
88 * /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-0/event-channel-rx = "<evtchn-rx0>"
89 * /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-1 = ""
90 * /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-1/tx-ring-ref = "<ring-ref-tx1>"
91 * /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-1/rx-ring-ref = "<ring-ref-rx1"
92 * /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-1/event-channel-tx = "<evtchn-tx1>"
93 * /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-1/event-channel-rx = "<evtchn-rx1>"
95 * If there is any inconsistency in the XenStore data, the backend may
96 * choose not to connect any queues, instead treating the request as an
97 * error. This includes scenarios where more (or fewer) queues were
98 * requested than the frontend provided details for.
100 * Mapping of packets to queues is considered to be a function of the
101 * transmitting system (backend or frontend) and is not negotiated
102 * between the two. Guests are free to transmit packets on any queue
103 * they choose, provided it has been set up correctly. Guests must be
104 * prepared to receive packets on any queue they have requested be set up.
108 * "feature-no-csum-offload" should be used to turn IPv4 TCP/UDP checksum
109 * offload off or on. If it is missing then the feature is assumed to be on.
110 * "feature-ipv6-csum-offload" should be used to turn IPv6 TCP/UDP checksum
111 * offload on or off. If it is missing then the feature is assumed to be off.
115 * "feature-gso-tcpv4" and "feature-gso-tcpv6" advertise the capability to
116 * handle large TCP packets (in IPv4 or IPv6 form respectively). Neither
117 * frontends nor backends are assumed to be capable unless the flags are
122 * "feature-multicast-control" and "feature-dynamic-multicast-control"
123 * advertise the capability to filter ethernet multicast packets in the
124 * backend. If the frontend wishes to take advantage of this feature then
125 * it may set "request-multicast-control". If the backend only advertises
126 * "feature-multicast-control" then "request-multicast-control" must be set
127 * before the frontend moves into the connected state. The backend will
128 * sample the value on this state transition and any subsequent change in
129 * value will have no effect. However, if the backend also advertises
130 * "feature-dynamic-multicast-control" then "request-multicast-control"
131 * may be set by the frontend at any time. In this case, the backend will
132 * watch the value and re-sample on watch events.
134 * If the sampled value of "request-multicast-control" is set then the
135 * backend transmit side should no longer flood multicast packets to the
136 * frontend, it should instead drop any multicast packet that does not
137 * match in a filter list.
138 * The list is amended by the frontend by sending dummy transmit requests
139 * containing XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_TYPE_MCAST_{ADD,DEL} extra-info fragments as
141 * Note that the filter list may be amended even if the sampled value of
142 * "request-multicast-control" is not set, however the filter should only
143 * be applied if it is set.
147 * "xdp-headroom" is used to request that extra space is added
148 * for XDP processing. The value is measured in bytes and passed by
149 * the frontend to be consistent between both ends.
150 * If the value is greater than zero that means that
151 * an RX response is going to be passed to an XDP program for processing.
152 * XEN_NETIF_MAX_XDP_HEADROOM defines the maximum headroom offset in bytes
154 * "feature-xdp-headroom" is set to "1" by the netback side like other features
155 * so a guest can check if an XDP program can be processed.
157 #define XEN_NETIF_MAX_XDP_HEADROOM 0x7FFF
163 * Some features, such as hashing (detailed below), require a
164 * significant amount of out-of-band data to be passed from frontend to
165 * backend. Use of xenstore is not suitable for large quantities of data
166 * because of quota limitations and so a dedicated 'control ring' is used.
167 * The ability of the backend to use a control ring is advertised by
170 * /local/domain/X/backend/<domid>/<vif>/feature-ctrl-ring = "1"
172 * The frontend provides a control ring to the backend by setting:
174 * /local/domain/<domid>/device/vif/<vif>/ctrl-ring-ref = <gref>
175 * /local/domain/<domid>/device/vif/<vif>/event-channel-ctrl = <port>
177 * where <gref> is the grant reference of the shared page used to
178 * implement the control ring and <port> is an event channel to be used
179 * as a mailbox interrupt. These keys must be set before the frontend
180 * moves into the connected state.
182 * The control ring uses a fixed request/response message size and is
183 * balanced (i.e. one request to one response), so operationally it is much
184 * the same as a transmit or receive ring.
185 * Note that there is no requirement that responses are issued in the same

689 * size = fragment size
693 * This format slightly is different from that used for transmit
694 * (frontend -> backend) packets. Specifically, in a multi-fragment
695 * packet the size of the packet can only be determined by summing the
696 * sizes of fragments 1..N.
698 * Ring slot size is 8 octets.
700 * rx request (xen_netif_rx_request_t)

704 * +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+
705 * | id | pad | gref |
706 * +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+
708 * id: request identifier, echoed in response.
709 * gref: reference to incoming granted frame.
711 * rx response (xen_netif_rx_response_t)
712 * ---------------------------------
714 * 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 octet
715 * +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+
716 * | id | offset | flags | status |
717 * +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+
719 * id: reflects id in receive request
720 * offset: offset in page of start of received packet
721 * flags: XEN_NETRXF_*
722 * status: -ve: XEN_NETIF_RSP_*; +ve: Rx'ed pkt size.
724 * NOTE: Historically, to support GSO on the frontend receive side, Linux
725 * netfront does not make use of the rx response id (because, as
726 * described below, extra info structures overlay the id field).
727 * Instead it assumes that responses always appear in the same ring
728 * slot as their corresponding request. Thus, to maintain
729 * compatibility, backends must make sure this is the case.
734 * Can be present if initial request or response has NET{T,R}XF_extra_info,
735 * or previous extra request has XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_MORE.
737 * The struct therefore needs to fit into either a tx or rx slot and
738 * is therefore limited to 8 octets.
740 * NOTE: Because extra info data overlays the usual request/response
741 * structures, there is no id information in the opposite direction.
742 * So, if an extra info overlays an rx response the frontend can
743 * assume that it is in the same ring slot as the request that was
744 * consumed to make the slot available, and the backend must ensure
745 * this assumption is true.
