The function qemu_calculate_timeout() is only used when CONFIG_IOTHREAD
is not defined. When CONFIG_IOTHREAD is defined, we have the following
warning:
vl.c:4389: warning: ‘qemu_calculate_timeout’ defined but not used
This change fixes that by moving the #ifdef/#endif from main_loop()
into qemu_calculate_timeout(). This encapsulates the logic and allow
us to use qemu_calculate_timeout() when CONFIG_IOTHREAD is defined
or not (suggested by Glauber Costa).

Increase the size of the perfect filter table and control queue depth.
This should give us more headroom in the MAC filter and is known to be
needed by at least one guest user. Increasing the control queue depth
allows a guest to feed several commands back to back if they so desire
rather than using the send and wait approach Linux uses.

The MAC filter table is received from the guest as two separate
buffers, one with unicast entries, the other with multicast
entries. If we track the index dividing the two sets, we can
avoid searching the part of the table with the wrong type of
entries.
We could store this index as part of the save image, but its
trivially easy to discover it on load.

Reorganize receive_filter to better handle the split between
unicast and multicast filtering. This allows us to skip the

There's no need to save 4 bytes for promisc and allmulti.

If we don't have room to receive a packet, we return zero
from virtio_net_receive() and call qemu_flush_queued_packets()
as soon as space becomes available.

If a packet is queued by qemu_send_packet(), remove I/O
handler for the tap fd until we get notification that the
packet has been sent.
A not insignificant side effect of this is we can now
drain the tap send queue in one go without fear of packets
being dropped.

Add a qemu_send_packet() variant which will queue up the packet
if it cannot be sent when all client queues are full. It later
invokes the supplied callback when the packet has been sent.
If qemu_send_packet_async() returns zero, the caller is expected
to not send any more packets until the queued packet has been
sent.
Packets are queued iff a receive() handler returns zero (indicating
queue full) and the caller has provided a sent notification callback
(indicating it will stop and start its own queue).
We need the packet sending API to support queueing because:
- a sending client should process all available packets in one go
(e.g. virtio-net emptying its tx ring)
- a receiving client may not be able to handle the packet
(e.g. -EAGAIN from write() to tapfd)
- the sending client could detect this condition in advance
(e.g. by select() for writable on tapfd)
- that's too much overhead (e.g. a select() call per packet)
- therefore the sending client must handle the condition by
dropping the packet or queueing it
- dropping packets is poor form; we should queue.
However, we don't want queueing to be completely transparent. We
want the sending client to stop sending packets as soon as a
packet is queued. This allows the sending client to be throttled
by the receiver.

VLANClientState's fd_read() handler doesn't read from file
descriptors, it adds a buffer to the client's receive queue.
Re-name the handlers to make things a little less confusing.

This, apparently, is the style we prefer - all VLANClientState

Reduce the number of packets dropped under heavy network
traffic by only reading a packet from the tapfd when a
client can actually handle it.
Signed-off-by: Mark McLoughlin <markmc@redhat.com>
If a vlan client has no fd_can_read(), that means it can
always receive packets. The current code assumes it can *never*
receive packets.

KVM uses a 64k buffer for reading from tapfd (for GSO support)
and allocates the buffer with TAPState rather than on the stack.
Not allocating it on the stack probably makes sense for qemu
anyway, so merge it in advance of GSO support.

This patch reorders the initialization of slirp itself as well as its
associated features smb and redirection. So far the first reference to
slirp triggered the initialization, independent of the actual -net user
option which may carry additional parameters. Now we save any request to
add a smb export or some redirections until the actual initialization of
the stack. This also allows to move a few parameters that were passed
via global variable into the argument list of net_slirp_init.

As host network devices can also be instantiated via the monitor, errors
should then be reported to the related monitor instead of stderr. This
requires larger refactoring, so this patch starts small with introducing
a helper to catch both cases and convert net_client_init as well as
net_slirp_redir.

OK, last try: 8e4416af45 broke -net socket, ffad4116b9 tried to fix it
but broke error reporting of invalid parameters. So this patch widely
reverts ffad4116b9 again and intead fixes those callers of check_params
that originally suffered from overwritten buffers by using separate
ones.

This reverts commit 8cf07dcbe7.
This is a sorry saga.
This commit:
8e4416af45 net: Add parameter checks for VLAN clients
broken '-net socket' and this commit:
ffad4116b9 net: Fix -net socket parameter checks
fixed the problem but introduced another problem which
this commit:
8cf07dcbe7 Fix output of uninitialized strings
fixed that final problem, but causing us to lose some
error reporting information in the process.
Meanwhile Jan posted a patch to mostly re-do ffad4116b9
in a way that fixes the original issue, but without
losing the error reporting information. So, let's revert
8cf07dcbe7 and apply Jan's patch.

Slirp uses fork_exec for spawning service processes, and QEMU uses this
for running smbd. As SIGCHLD is not handled, these processes become
zombies on termination. Fix this by installing a proper signal handler,
but also make sure we disable the signal while waiting on forked network
setup/shutdown scripts.
