Add VIRTIO_F_RING_RESET, which indicates that the driver can reset a
virtqueue individually.
VIRTIO_F_RING_RESET feature is added to virtio-spec 1.2. The relevant
information is in
https://github.com/oasis-tcs/virtio-spec/issues/124
https://github.com/oasis-tcs/virtio-spec/issues/139
The implementation only adds the feature bit in supported features.
It also adds a new vhost-user message VHOST_USER_RESET_VRING. The
related definition is defined in the related QEMU patch set:
https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/cover.1661510725.git.kangjie...@linux.alibaba.com/T/#t
The virtqueue reset process can be concluded as two parts:
1. The driver can reset a virtqueue. It will send VHOST_USER_RESET_VRING
to DPDK. After received the message, DPDK will reset the virtqueue. The
new message VHOST_USER_RESET_VRING has been acked by the QEMU virtio
maintainer:
https://lore.kernel.org/qemu-devel/57362274-b2fb-a47d-fea7-d3ebcfad9...@redhat.com/
2. After the virtqueue is disabled, the driver may optionally re-enable
it. To avoid confusion with VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ENABLE, we call this
part as "restart". The virtqueue's information may be changed when
restarting it. Thus, the information of the reset virtqueue should be
updated. This part is basically similar to when the virtqueue is started
for the first time, except that the restart process does not need to set
features and set mem table since they do not change. QEMU will send
messages containing size, base, addr, kickfd and callfd of the virtqueue
in order. Specifically, the DPDK will receive these messages in order:
a. VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_NUM
b. VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_BASE
c. VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ADDR
d. VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_KICK
e. VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_CALL
f. VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ENABLE
The last VHOST_USER_SET_VRING_ENABLE message with "payload.state.num" set
to 1, will be sent to enable the virtqueue and the restart process is
finished.
Test environment:
Host: 5.4.189
Qemu: QEMU emulator version 7.0.50 (With vq reset support)
Guest: 5.19.0-rc3 (With vq reset support)
DPDK: 22.07-rc1
Test Cmd: ethtool -g eth1; ethtool -G eth1 rx $1 tx $2;
ethtool -g eth1;
The driver can resize the virtio queue, then virtio queue reset
function should be triggered.
