[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2] net: Add support of VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_ANNOUNCE


From: Thibaut Collet
Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2] net: Add support of VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_ANNOUNCE for vhost-net/vhost-user
Date: Fri, 5 Jun 2015 15:24:12 +0200

Add VIRTIO_NET_F_GUEST_ANNOUNCE capability to vhost-net when netdev backend is
vhost-user.

For netdev backend using virtio-net NIC the self announce is managed directly
by the virtio-net NIC and not by the netdev backend itself.
To avoid duplication of announces (once from the guest and once from QEMU) a
bitfield is added in the NetClientState structure.
If this bit is set self announce does not send message to the guest to request
gratuitous ARP but let virtio-net NIC set the VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE for
gratuitous ARP.

v2: do not discard anymore packets send to vhost-user: it is GARP request after
    live migration.
    As suggested by S. Hajnoczi qemu_announce_self skips virtio-net NIC that
    already send GARP.
