[ Upstream commit fd3a886258 ]
Tun, tap, virtio, packet and uml vector all use struct virtio_net_hdr
to communicate packet metadata to userspace.
For skbuffs with vlan, the first two return the packet as it may have
existed on the wire, inserting the VLAN tag in the user buffer. Then
virtio_net_hdr.csum_start needs to be adjusted by VLAN_HLEN bytes.
Commit f09e2249c4 ("macvtap: restore vlan header on user read")
added this feature to macvtap. Commit 3ce9b20f19 ("macvtap: Fix
csum_start when VLAN tags are present") then fixed up csum_start.
Virtio, packet and uml do not insert the vlan header in the user
buffer.
When introducing virtio_net_hdr_from_skb to deduplicate filling in
the virtio_net_hdr, the variant from macvtap which adds VLAN_HLEN was
applied uniformly, breaking csum offset for packets with vlan on
virtio and packet.
Make insertion of VLAN_HLEN optional. Convert the callers to pass it
when needed.

[ Upstream commit bda7fab548 ]
The operstate update logic will leave an interface in the
default UNKNOWN operstate if the interface carrier state never changes
from the default carrier up state set at creation. This includes the
case of an explicit call to netif_carrier_on, as the carrier on to on
transition has no effect on operstate.
This affects virtio-net for the case that the virtio peer does
not support VIRTIO_NET_F_STATUS (the feature that provides carrier state
updates). Without this feature, the virtio specification states that
"the link should be assumed active," so, logically, the operstate should
be UP instead of UNKNOWN. This has impact on user space applications
that use the operstate to make availability decisions for the interface.
Resolve this by changing the virtio probe logic slightly to call
netif_carrier_off for both the "with" and "without" VIRTIO_NET_F_STATUS
cases, and then the existing call to netif_carrier_on for the "without"
case will cause an operstate transition.

[ Upstream commit 95dbe9e7b3 ]
When configuring virtio_net to use the code path 'receive_small()',
in-order to get correct XDP_REDIRECT support, I discovered TCP packets
would get silently dropped when loading an XDP program action XDP_PASS.
The bug seems to be that receive_small() when XDP is loaded check that
hdr->hdr.flags is zero, which seems wrong as hdr.flags contains the
flags VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_* :
#define VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_NEEDS_CSUM 1 /* Use csum_start, csum_offset */
#define VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_DATA_VALID 2 /* Csum is valid */
TCP got dropped as it had the VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_DATA_VALID flag set.
The flags that are relevant here are the VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_* flags
stored in hdr->hdr.gso_type. Thus, the fix is just check that none of
the gso_type flags have been set.

When sending control commands, virtio net sets up several buffers for
DMA. The buffers are all part of the net device which means it's
actually allocated by kvmalloc so it's in theory (on extreme memory
pressure) possible to get a vmalloc'ed buffer which on some platforms
means we can't DMA there.
Fix up by moving the DMA buffers into a separate structure.

[ Upstream commit fdaa767aef ]
Since commit 39e6c8208d ("net: solve a NAPI race") napi has been able
to be rescheduled within napi_complete_done() even in non-busypoll case,
but virtnet_poll() always enabled interrupts before complete, and when
napi was rescheduled within napi_complete_done() it did not disable
interrupts.
This caused more interrupts when event idx is disabled.
According to commit cbdadbbf0c ("virtio_net: fix race in RX VQ
processing") we cannot place virtqueue_enable_cb_prepare() after
NAPI_STATE_SCHED is cleared, so disable interrupts again if
napi_complete_done() returned false.
Tested with vhost-user of OVS 2.7 on host, which does not have the event
idx feature.

Seth Forshee noticed a performance degradation with some workloads.
This turns out to be due to packet drops. Euan Kemp noticed that this
is because we drop all packets where length exceeds the truesize, but
for some packets we add in extra memory without updating the truesize.
This in turn was kept around unchanged from ab7db91705 ("virtio-net:
auto-tune mergeable rx buffer size for improved performance"). That
commit had an internal reason not to account for the extra space: not
enough bits to do it. No longer true so let's account for the allocated
length exactly.

for debugging the issue.

with headroom insufficient for XDP is added to the queue and
