63d1255670 virtio: do not statically allocate root device
We shouldn't be statically allocating the root device object,
so dynamically allocate it using root_device_register()
instead.

Also avoids this warning from 'rmmod virtio_pci':

  Device 'virtio-pci' does not have a release() function, it is broken and must be fixed

29f9f12ec7 virtio: add PCI device release() function
Add a release() function for virtio_pci devices so as to avoid:

  Device 'virtio0' does not have a release() function, it is broken and must be fixed

Move the code to free the resources associated with the device
from virtio_pci_remove() into this new function. virtio_pci_remove()
now merely unregisters the device which should cause the final
ref to be dropped and virtio_pci_release_dev() to be called.

99e0b6c8e3 virtio: struct device - replace bus_id with dev_name(), dev_set_name()
This patch is part of a larger patch series which will remove
the "char bus_id[20]" name string from struct device. The device
name is managed in the kobject anyway, and without any size
limitation, and just needlessly copied into "struct device".

To set and read the device name dev_name(dev) and dev_set_name(dev)
must be used. If your code uses static kobjects, which it shouldn't
do, "const char *init_name" can be used to statically provide the
name the registered device should have. At registration time, the
init_name field is cleared, to enforce the use of dev_name(dev) to
access the device name at a later time.

We need to get rid of all occurrences of bus_id in the entire tree
to be able to enable the new interface. Please apply this patch,
and possibly convert any remaining remaining occurrences of bus_id.

We want to submit a patch to -next, which will remove bus_id from
"struct device", to find the remaining pieces to convert, and finally
switch over to the new api, which will remove the 20 bytes array
and does no longer have a size limitation.

532a6086e3 virtio_balloon: fix towards_target when deflating balloon
Both v and vb->num_pages are u32 and unsigned int respectively.  If v is less
than vb->num_pages (and it is, when deflating the balloon), the result is a
very large 32-bit number.  Since we're returning a s64, instead of getting the
same negative number we desire, we get a very large positive number.

This handles the case where v < vb->num_pages and ensures we get a small,
negative, s64 as the result.

Rusty: please push this for 2.6.27-rc4.  It's probably appropriate for the
stable tree too as it will cause an unexpected OOM when ballooning.

44653eae14 virtio: don't always force a notification when ring is full
We force notification when the ring is full, even if the host has
indicated it doesn't want to know.  This seemed like a good idea at
the time: if we fill the transmit ring, we should tell the host
immediately.

Unfortunately this logic also applies to the receiving ring, which is
refilled constantly.  We should introduce real notification thesholds
to replace this logic.  Meanwhile, removing the logic altogether breaks
the heuristics which KVM uses, so we use a hack: only notify if there are
outgoing parts of the new buffer.

Here are the number of exits with lguest's crappy network implementation:
Before:
	network xmit 7859051 recv 236420
After:
	network xmit 7858610 recv 118136

b4f68be6c5 virtio: force callback on empty.
virtio allows drivers to suppress callbacks (ie. interrupts) for
efficiency (no locking, it's just an optimization).

There's a similar mechanism for the host to suppress notifications
coming from the guest: in that case, we ignore the suppression if the
ring is completely full.

It turns out that life is simpler if the host similarly ignores
callback suppression when the ring is completely empty: the network
driver wants to free up old packets in a timely manner, and otherwise
has to use a timer to poll.

We have to remove the code which ignores interrupts when the driver
has disabled them (again, it had no locking and hence was unreliable
anyway).

I looked into the virtio_net code for some time and I think the following
scenario happened. Please look at virtnet_poll:
[...]
        /* Out of packets? */
        if (received < budget) {
                netif_rx_complete(vi->dev, napi);
                if (unlikely(!vi->rvq->vq_ops->enable_cb(vi->rvq))
                    && napi_schedule_prep(napi)) {
                        vi->rvq->vq_ops->disable_cb(vi->rvq);
                        __netif_rx_schedule(vi->dev, napi);
                        goto again;
                }
        }

If an interrupt arrives after netif_rx_complete, a second poll routine can run
on a different cpu. The second check for napi_schedule_prep would prevent any
harm in the network stack, but we have called enable_cb possibly after the
disable_cb in skb_recv_done.

static void skb_recv_done(struct virtqueue *rvq)
{
        struct virtnet_info *vi = rvq->vdev->priv;
        /* Schedule NAPI, Suppress further interrupts if successful. */
        if (netif_rx_schedule_prep(vi->dev, &vi->napi)) {
                rvq->vq_ops->disable_cb(rvq);
                __netif_rx_schedule(vi->dev, &vi->napi);
        }
}

That means that the second poll routine runs with interrupts enabled, which is
ok, since we can handle additional interrupts. The problem is now that the
second poll routine might also call enable_cb, triggering the BUG.

The only solution I can come up with, is to remove the BUG statement in
enable_cb - similar to disable_cb. Opinions or better ideas where the oops
could come from?

b769f57908 virtio: set device index in common code.
Anthony Liguori points out that three different transports use the virtio code,
but each one keeps its own counter to set the virtio_device's index field.  In
theory (though not in current practice) this means that names could be
duplicated, and that risk grows as more transports are created.

So we move the selection of the unique virtio_device.index into the common code
in virtio.c, which has the side-benefit of removing duplicate code.

The only complexity is that lguest and S/390 use the index to uniquely identify
the device in case of catastrophic failure before register_virtio_device() is
called: now we use the offset within the descriptor page as a unique identifier
for the printks.

c45a6816c1 virtio: explicit advertisement of driver features
A recent proposed feature addition to the virtio block driver revealed
some flaws in the API: in particular, we assume that feature
negotiation is complete once a driver's probe function returns.

There is nothing in the API to require this, however, and even I
didn't notice when it was violated.

So instead, we require the driver to specify what features it supports
in a table, we can then move the feature negotiation into the virtio
core.  The intersection of device and driver features are presented in
a new 'features' bitmap in the struct virtio_device.

Note that this highlights the difference between Linux unsigned-long
bitmaps where each unsigned long is in native endian, and a
straight-forward little-endian array of bytes.

Drivers can still remove feature bits in their probe routine if they
really have to.

API changes:
- dev->config->feature() no longer gets and acks a feature.
- drivers should advertise their features in the 'feature_table' field
- use virtio_has_feature() for extra sanity when checking feature bits

72e61eb40b virtio: change config to guest endian.
A recent proposed feature addition to the virtio block driver revealed
some flaws in the API, in particular how easy it is to break big
endian machines.

The virtio config space was originally chosen to be little-endian,
because we thought the config might be part of the PCI config space
for virtio_pci.  It's actually a separate mmio region, so that
argument holds little water; as only x86 is currently using the virtio
mechanism, we can change this (but must do so now, before the
impending s390 merge).

API changes:
- __virtio_config_val() just becomes a striaght vdev->config_get() call.

The 'disable_cb' callback is designed as an optimization to tell the host
we don't need callbacks now.  As it is not reliable, the debug check is
overzealous: it can happen on two CPUs at the same time.  Document this.

Even if it were reliable, the virtio_net driver doesn't disable
callbacks on transmit so the START_USE/END_USE debugging reentrance
protection can be easily tripped even on UP.

The problem can be triggered with a high amount of host->guest traffic.
I think its the following race:

poll says netif_rx_complete
poll calls enable_cb
enable_cb opens the interrupt mask
a new packet comes, an interrupt is triggered----\
enable_cb sees that there is more work           |
enable_cb disables the interrupt                 |
       .                                         V
       .                            interrupt is delivered
       .                            skb_recv_done does atomic napi test, ok
 some waiting                       disable_cb is called->check fails->bang!
       .
poll would do napi check
poll would do disable_cb

The fix is to let enable_cb not disable the interrupt again, but expect the
caller to do the cleanup if it returns false. In that case, the interrupt is
only disabled, if the napi test_set_bit was successful.

6b35e40767 virtio: balloon driver
After discussions with Anthony Liguori, it seems that the virtio
balloon can be made even simpler.  Here's my attempt.

The device configuration tells the driver how much memory it should
take from the guest (ie. balloon size).  The guest feeds the page
numbers it has taken via one virtqueue.

A second virtqueue feeds the page numbers the driver wants back: if
the device has the VIRTIO_BALLOON_F_MUST_TELL_HOST bit, then this
queue is compulsory, otherwise it's advisory (and the guest can simply
fault the pages back in).

This driver can be enhanced later to deflate the balloon via a
shrinker, oom callback or we could even go for a complete set of
in-guest regulators.

As Avi pointed out, as we continue to massage the virtio PCI ABI, we can make
things a little more friendly to users by utilizing the PCI revision field to

and incrementing it will cause the guest driver to break.

81a8deab1c virtio: handle interrupts after callbacks turned off
Anthony Liguori found double interrupt suppression in the virtio_net
driver, triggered by two skb_recv_done's in a row.  This is because
virtio_ring's interrupt suppression is a best-effort optimization: it
contains no synchronization so the host can miss it and still send
interrupts.

But it's certainly nicer for virtio users if calling disable_cb
actually disables callbacks, so we check for the race in the interrupt
routine.

Note: SMP guests might require syncronization here, but since
disable_cb is actually called from interrupt context, there has to be
some form of synchronization before the next same interrupt handler is
called (Linux guarantees that the same device's irq handler will never
run simultanously on multiple CPUs).

6e5aa7efb2 virtio: reset function
A reset function solves three problems:

1) It allows us to renegotiate features, eg. if we want to upgrade a
   guest driver without rebooting the guest.

2) It gives us a clean way of shutting down virtqueues: after a reset,
   we know that the buffers won't be used by the host, and

3) It helps the guest recover from messed-up drivers.

So we remove the ->shutdown hook, and the only way we now remove
feature bits is via reset.

We leave it to the driver to do the reset before it deletes queues:
the balloon driver, for example, needs to chat to the host in its
remove function.

42b36cc0ce virtio: Force use of power-of-two for descriptor ring sizes
The virtio descriptor rings of size N-1 were nicely set up to be
aligned to an N-byte boundary.  But as Anthony Liguori points out, the
free-running indices used by virtio require that the sizes be a power
of 2, otherwise we get problems on wrap (demonstrated with lguest).

So we replace the clever "2^n-1" scheme with a simple "align to page
boundary" scheme: this means that all virtio rings take at least two
pages, but it's safer than guessing cache alignment.

Since vq->vring.used->idx is a 16-bit integer, and last_used_idx is an

wraps around.

This patch corrects this by changing last_used_idx to the correct type.

0a8a69dd77 Virtio helper routines for a descriptor ringbuffer implementation
These helper routines supply most of the virtqueue_ops for hypervisors
which want to use a ring for virtio.  Unlike the previous lguest
implementation:

1) The rings are variable sized (2^n-1 elements).
2) They have an unfortunate limit of 65535 bytes per sg element.
3) The page numbers are always 64 bit (PAE anyone?)
4) They no longer place used[] on a separate page, just a separate
   cacheline.
5) We do a modulo on a variable.  We could be tricky if we cared.
6) Interrupts and notifies are suppressed using flags within the rings.

Users need only get the ring pages and provide a notify hook (KVM
wants the guest to allocate the rings, lguest does it sanely).

the driver "interrupt" callbacks are invoked.
