virtio_net: Add XDP frame size in two code paths
The virtio_net driver is running inside the guest-OS. There are two XDP receive code-paths in virtio_net, namely receive_small() and receive_mergeable(). The receive_big() function does not support XDP. In receive_small() the frame size is available in buflen. The buffer backing these frames are allocated in add_recvbuf_small() with same size, except for the headroom, but tailroom have reserved room for skb_shared_info. The headroom is encoded in ctx pointer as a value. In receive_mergeable() the frame size is more dynamic. There are two basic cases: (1) buffer size is based on a exponentially weighted moving average (see DECLARE_EWMA) of packet length. Or (2) in case virtnet_get_headroom() have any headroom then buffer size is PAGE_SIZE. The ctx pointer is this time used for encoding two values; the buffer len "truesize" and headroom. In case (1) if the rx buffer size is underestimated, the packet will have been split over more buffers (num_buf info in virtio_net_hdr_mrg_rxbuf placed in top of buffer area). If that happens the XDP path does a xdp_linearize_page operation. V3: Adjust frame_sz in receive_mergeable() case, spotted by Jason Wang. The code is really hard to follow, so some hints to reviewers. The receive_mergeable() case gets frames that were allocated in add_recvbuf_mergeable() which uses headroom=virtnet_get_headroom(), and 'buf' ptr is advanced this headroom. The headroom can only be 0 or VIRTIO_XDP_HEADROOM, as virtnet_get_headroom is really simple: static unsigned int virtnet_get_headroom(struct virtnet_info *vi) { return vi->xdp_queue_pairs ? VIRTIO_XDP_HEADROOM : 0; } As frame_sz is an offset size from xdp.data_hard_start, reviewers should notice how this is calculated in receive_mergeable(): int offset = buf - page_address(page); [...] data = page_address(xdp_page) + offset; xdp.data_hard_start = data - VIRTIO_XDP_HEADROOM + vi->hdr_len; The calculated offset will always be VIRTIO_XDP_HEADROOM when reaching this code. Thus, xdp.data_hard_start will be page-start address plus vi->hdr_len. Given this xdp.frame_sz need to be reduced with vi->hdr_len size. IMHO a followup patch should cleanup this code to make it easier to maintain and understand, but it is outside the scope of this patchset.
