When -netdev bridge fails, it first reports a specific error, then a
generic one, like this:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -netdev bridge,id=foo
failed to launch bridge helper
qemu-system-x86_64: -netdev bridge,id=foo: Device 'bridge' could not be initialized
The first message goes to stderr. Wrong for HMP, because errors need
to go to the monitor there.
The second message goes to stderr for -netdev, to the monitor for HMP
netdev_add, and becomes the error reply for QMP netdev_add.
Convert net_bridge_run_helper() to Error, and propagate its errors
through net_init_bridge(). This ensures the error gets reported where
the user is, and suppresses the unwanted second message.
While there, improve the error messages a bit.
The above example becomes:
$ qemu-system-x86_64 -netdev bridge,id=foo
qemu-system-x86_64: -netdev bridge,id=foo: bridge helper failed
net_init_tap() also uses net_bridge_run_helper(). Propagate its
errors there as well. Improves reporting these errors with -netdev

Error reporting for netdev_add is broken: the net_client_init_fun[]
report the actual errors with (at best) error_report(), and their
caller net_client_init1() makes up a generic error on top.
For command line and HMP, this produces an mildly ugly error cascade.
In QMP, the actual errors go to stderr, and the generic error becomes
the command's error reply.
To fix this, we need to convert the net_client_init_fun[] to Error.
To permit fixing them one by one, add an Error ** parameter to the
net_client_init_fun[]. If the call fails without returning an Error,
make up the same generic Error as before. But if it returns one, use
that instead. Since none of them does so far, no functional change.

Signed-off-by: Stefan Hajnoczi <stefanha@redhat.com>
The net subsystem has a control flow mechanism so peer NetClientStates
can tell each other to stop sending packets. This is used to stop
monitoring the tap file descriptor for incoming packets if the guest rx
ring has no spare buffers.
There is a corner case when tap_can_send() is true at the beginning of
an event loop iteration but becomes false before the tap_send() fd
handler is invoked.
tap_send() will read the packet from the tap file descriptor and attempt
to send it. The net queue will hold on to the packet and return 0,
indicating that further I/O is not possible. tap then stops monitoring
the file descriptor for reads.
This is unlike the normal case where tap_can_send() is the same before
and during the event loop iteration. The event loop would simply not
monitor the file descriptor if tap_can_send() returns true. Upon next
iteration it would check tap_can_send() again and begin monitoring if we
can send.
The deadlock happens because tap_send() explicitly disabled read_poll.
This is done with the expectation that the peer will call
qemu_net_queue_flush(). But hw/net/virtio-net.c does not monitor
vm_running transitions and issue the flush. Hence we're left with a
broken tap device.

Originally, ran into this limitation when using -netdev UDP sockets to connect
VM-to-VM, where VM interface is configure with MTU=9000. (Using virtio_net
NIC model). Test is simple: ping -M do -s 8500 <target>. This test will
attempt to ping with unfragmented packet of given size. Without patch, size
is limited to < 4K (minus protocol hdrs). With patch, ping test works with pkt
size up to 9000 (again, minus protocol hdrs).

Recently, linux support multiqueue tap which could let userspace call TUNSETIFF
for a signle device many times to create multiple file descriptors as
independent queues. User could also enable/disabe a specific queue through
TUNSETQUEUE.
The patch adds the generic infrastructure to create multiqueue taps. To achieve
this a new parameter "queues" were introduced to specify how many queues were
expected to be created for tap by qemu itself. Alternatively, management could
also pass multiple pre-created tap file descriptors separated with ':' through a
new parameter fds like -netdev tap,id=hn0,fds="X:Y:..:Z". Multiple vhost file
descriptors could also be passed in this way.
Each TAPState were still associated to a tap fd, which mean multiple TAPStates
were created when user needs multiqueue taps. Since each TAPState contains one
NetClientState, with the multiqueue nic support, an N peers of NetClientState
were built up.
A new parameter, mq_required were introduce in tap_open() to create multiqueue
tap fds.

The net_client_init() prototype is kept intact.
Based on "is_netdev", the QemuOpts-rooted QemuOpt-list is parsed as a
Netdev or a NetLegacy. The original meat of net_client_init() is moved to
and simplified in net_client_init1():
Fields not common between -net and -netdev are clearly separated. Getting
the name for the init functions is cleaner: Netdev::id is mandatory, and
all init functions handle a NULL NetLegacy::name. NetLegacy::vlan
explicitly depends on -net (see below).
Verifying the "type=" option for -netdev can be turned into a switch.
Format validation with qemu_opts_validate() can be removed because the
visitor covers it. Relatedly, the "net_client_types" array is reduced to
an array of init functions that can be directly indexed by opts->kind.
(Help text is available in the schema JSON.)
The outermost negation in the condition around qemu_find_vlan() was
flattened, because it expresses the dependent code's requirements more
clearly.
VLAN lookup is avoided if there's no init function to pass the VLAN to.
Whenever the value of type=... is needed, we substitute
NetClientOptionsKind_lookup[kind].
The individual init functions are not converted yet, thus the original
QemuOpts instance is passed transparently.
v1->v2:
- NetLegacy::name is optional. Tracked it through all init functions: they
all handle a NULL name. Updated commit message accordingly.
v2->v3:
- NetLegacy::id is allowed and takes precedence over NetLegacy::name.

The most common use of -net tap is to connect a tap device to a bridge. This
requires the use of a script and running qemu as root in order to allocate a
tap device to pass to the script.
This model is great for portability and flexibility but it's incredibly
difficult to eliminate the need to run qemu as root. The only really viable
mechanism is to use tunctl to create a tap device, attach it to a bridge as
root, and then hand that tap device to qemu. The problem with this mechanism
is that it requires administrator intervention whenever a user wants to create
a guest.
By essentially writing a helper that implements the most common qemu-ifup
script that can be safely given cap_net_admin, we can dramatically simplify
things for non-privileged users. We still support existing -net tap options
as a mechanism for advanced users and backwards compatibility.
Currently, this is very Linux centric but there's really no reason why it
couldn't be extended for other Unixes.
A typical invocation would be similar to one of the following:
qemu linux.img -net bridge -net nic,model=virtio
qemu linux.img -net tap,helper="/usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper"
-net nic,model=virtio
qemu linux.img -netdev bridge,id=hn0
-device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hn0,id=nic1
qemu linux.img -netdev tap,helper="/usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper",id=hn0
-device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hn0,id=nic1
The default bridge that we attach to is br0. The thinking is that a distro
could preconfigure such an interface to allow out-of-the-box bridged networking.
Alternatively, if a user wants to use a different bridge, a typical invocation
would be simliar to one of the following:
qemu linux.img -net bridge,br=qemubr0 -net nic,model=virtio
qemu linux.img -net tap,helper="/usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper --br=qemubr0"
-net nic,model=virtio
qemu linux.img -netdev bridge,br=qemubr0,id=hn0
-device virtio-net-pci,netdev=hn0,id=nic1
qemu linux.img -netdev tap,helper="/usr/local/libexec/qemu-bridge-helper --br=qemubr0",id=hn0
