For MQ, if both VIRTIO_NET_F_MQ and VIRTIO_NET_F_RSS are not set, the virtio device should haveone queue pair as default value, so when userspace querying queue pair numbers,it should return mq=1 than zero. For MTU, if VIRTIO_NET_F_MTU is not set, we should not read MTU from the device config sapce.RFC894 <A Standard for the Transmission of IP Datagrams over Ethernet Networks>says:"The minimum length of the data field of a packet sent over an Ethernet is 1500 octets, thus the maximum length of an IP datagram sent over an Ethernet is 1500 octets. Implementations are encouraged to support full-length packets"
so I think we should return nothing if _F_MTU not set. Thanks
This could be a larger number for sure, we are trying to find out the min value for Ethernet here, to support 1500 octets, MTU should be 1500 at least, so I assume 1500 should be the default value for MTUApparently that is no longer true with the introduction of Jumbo size frame later in the 2000s. I'm not sure what is the point of mention this ancient RFC. It doesn't say default MTU of any Ethernet NIC/switch should be 1500 in either case.virtio spec says:"The virtio network device is a virtual ethernet card",Right,... but it doesn't say the default is 1500. At least, not in explicit way. Why it can't be 1492 or even lower? In practice, if the network backend has a MTU higher than 1500, there's nothing wrong for guest to configure default MTU more than 1500.so the default MTU value should be 1500 for virtio-net.same as aboveAs said, there's no virtio spec defined value for MTU. Please leave this field out if feature VIRTIO_NET_F_MTU is not negotiated.For MAC, the spec says:"If the VIRTIO_NET_F_MAC feature bit is set, the configuration space mac entry indicates the “physical” address of the network card, otherwise the driver would typically generate a random local MAC address." So there is no default MAC address if VIRTIO_NET_F_MAC not set. This commits introduces functions vdpa_dev_net_mtu_config_fill() and vdpa_dev_net_mac_config_fill() to fill MTU and MAC. It also fixes vdpa_dev_net_mq_config_fill() to report correct MQ when _F_MQ is not present. These functions should check devices features than driver features, and struct vdpa_device is not needed as a parameter The test & userspace tool output: Feature bit VIRTIO_NET_F_MTU, VIRTIO_NET_F_RSS, VIRTIO_NET_F_MQ and VIRTIO_NET_F_MAC can be mask out by hardcode. However, it is challenging to "disable" the related fields in the HW device config space, so let's just assume the values are meaningless if the feature bits are not set. Before this change, when feature bits for RSS, MQ, MTU and MAC are not set, iproute2 output: $vdpa vdpa0: mac 00:e8:ca:11:be:05 link up link_announce false mtu 1500 negotiated_features without this commit, function vdpa_dev_net_config_fill() reads all config space fields unconditionally, so let's assume the MAC and MTU are meaningless, and it checks MQ with driver_features, so we don't see max_vq_pairs. After applying this commit, when feature bits for MQ, RSS, MAC and MTU are not set,iproute2 output: $vdpa dev config show vdpa0 vdpa0: link up link_announce false max_vq_pairs 1 mtu 1500 negotiated_features As explained above: Here is no MAC, because VIRTIO_NET_F_MAC is not set, and there is no default value for MAC. It shows max_vq_paris = 1 because even without MQ feature, a functional virtio-net must have one queue pair. mtu = 1500 is the default value as ethernet required.
