- the VALE switch now support up to 254 destinations per switch, unicast or broadcast (multicast goes to all ports). - we can attach hw interfaces and the host stack to a VALE switch, which means we will be able to use it more or less as a native bridge (minor tweaks still necessary). A 'vale-ctl' program is supplied in tools/tools/netmap to attach/detach ports the switch, and list current configuration. - the lookup function in the VALE switch can be reassigned to something else, similar to the pf hooks. This will enable attaching the firewall, or other processing functions (e.g. in-kernel openvswitch) directly on the netmap port. The internal API used by device drivers does not change. Userspace applications should be recompiled because we bump NETMAP_API as we now use some fields in the struct nmreq that were previously ignored -- otherwise, data structures are the same. Manpages will be committed separately.

* The private descriptor ('softc' or 'adapter') of each interface
|
|
* is extended with a "struct netmap_adapter" containing netmap-related
|
|
* info (see description in dev/netmap/netmap_kernel.h.
|
|
* Among other things, tx_rings and rx_rings point to the arrays of
|
|
* "struct netmap_kring" which in turn reache the various
|
|
* "struct netmap_ring", shared with userspace.
|
|
|
|
* The NETMAP_RING is the userspace-visible replica of the NIC ring.
|
|
* Each slot has the index of a buffer, its length and some flags.
|
|
* In user space, the buffer address is computed as
|
|
* (char *)ring + buf_ofs + index*NETMAP_BUF_SIZE
|
|
* In the kernel, buffers do not necessarily need to be contiguous,
|
|
* and the virtual and physical addresses are derived through
|
|
* a lookup table.
|
|
*
|
|
* struct netmap_slot:
|
|
*
|
|
* buf_idx is the index of the buffer associated to the slot.
|
|
* len is the length of the payload
|
|
* NS_BUF_CHANGED must be set whenever userspace wants
|
|
* to change buf_idx (it might be necessary to
|
|
* reprogram the NIC slot)
|
|
* NS_REPORT must be set if we want the NIC to generate an interrupt
|
|
* when this slot is used. Leaving it to 0 improves
|
|
* performance.
|
|
* NS_FORWARD if set on a receive ring, and the device is in
|
|
* transparent mode, buffers released with the flag set
|
|
* will be forwarded to the 'other' side (host stack
|
|
* or NIC, respectively) on the next select() or ioctl()
|
|
*
|
|
* The following will be supported from NETMAP_API = 5
|
|
* NS_NO_LEARN on a VALE switch, do not 'learn' the source port for
|
|
* this packet.
|
|
* NS_INDIRECT the netmap buffer contains a 64-bit pointer to
|
|
* the actual userspace buffer. This may be useful
|
|
* to reduce copies in a VM environment.
|
|
* NS_MOREFRAG Part of a multi-segment frame. The last (or only)
|
|
* segment must not have this flag.
|
|
* NS_PORT_MASK the high 8 bits of the flag, if not zero, indicate the
|
|
* destination port for the VALE switch, overriding
|
|
* the lookup table.

* Netmap representation of a TX or RX ring (also known as "queue").
|
|
* This is a queue implemented as a fixed-size circular array.
|
|
* At the software level, two fields are important: avail and cur.
|
|
*
|
|
* In TX rings:
|
|
* avail indicates the number of slots available for transmission.
|
|
* It is updated by the kernel after every netmap system call.
|
|
* It MUST BE decremented by the application when it appends a
|
|
* packet.
|
|
* cur indicates the slot to use for the next packet
|
|
* to send (i.e. the "tail" of the queue).
|
|
* It MUST BE incremented by the application before
|
|
* netmap system calls to reflect the number of newly
|
|
* sent packets.
|
|
* It is checked by the kernel on netmap system calls
|
|
* (normally unmodified by the kernel unless invalid).
|
|
*
|
|
* The kernel side of netmap uses two additional fields in its own
|
|
* private ring structure, netmap_kring:
|
|
* nr_hwcur is a copy of nr_cur on an NIOCTXSYNC.
|
|
* nr_hwavail is the number of slots known as available by the
|
|
* hardware. It is updated on an INTR (inc by the
|
|
* number of packets sent) and on a NIOCTXSYNC
|
|
* (decrease by nr_cur - nr_hwcur)
|
|
* A special case, nr_hwavail is -1 if the transmit
|
|
* side is idle (no pending transmits).
|
|
*
|
|
* In RX rings:
|
|
* avail is the number of packets available (possibly 0).
|
|
* It MUST BE decremented by the application when it consumes
|
|
* a packet, and it is updated to nr_hwavail on a NIOCRXSYNC
|
|
* cur indicates the first slot that contains a packet not
|
|
* processed yet (the "head" of the queue).
|
|
* It MUST BE incremented by the software when it consumes
|
|
* a packet.
|
|
* reserved indicates the number of buffers before 'cur'
|
|
* that the application has still in use. Normally 0,
|
|
* it MUST BE incremented by the application when it
|
|
* does not return the buffer immediately, and decremented
|
|
* when the buffer is finally freed.
|
|
*
|
|
* The kernel side of netmap uses two additional fields in the kring:
|
|
* nr_hwcur is a copy of nr_cur on an NIOCRXSYNC
|
|
* nr_hwavail is the number of packets available. It is updated
|
|
* on INTR (inc by the number of new packets arrived)
|
|
* and on NIOCRXSYNC (decreased by nr_cur - nr_hwcur).
|
|
*
|
|
* DATA OWNERSHIP/LOCKING:
|
|
* The netmap_ring is owned by the user program and it is only
|
|
* accessed or modified in the upper half of the kernel during
|
|
* a system call.
|
|
*
|
|
* The netmap_kring is only modified by the upper half of the kernel.
|
|
*
|
|
* FLAGS
|
|
* NR_TIMESTAMP updates the 'ts' field on each syscall. This is
|
|
* a global timestamp for all packets.
|
|
* NR_RX_TSTMP if set, the last 64 byte in each buffer will
|
|
* contain a timestamp for the frame supplied by
|
|
* the hardware (if supported)
|
|
* NR_FORWARD if set, the NS_FORWARD flag in each slot of the
|
|
* RX ring is checked, and if set the packet is
|
|
* passed to the other side (host stack or device,
|
|
* respectively). This permits bpf-like behaviour
|
|
* or transparency for selected packets.
