This patch enables virtio_net to switch over to a VF datapath when a VF netdev is present with the same MAC address. It allows live migration of a VM with a direct attached VF without the need to setup a bond/team between a VF and virtio net device in the guest. The hypervisor needs to unplug the VF device from the guest on the source host and reset the MAC filter of the VF to initiate failover of datapath to virtio before starting the migration. After the migration is completed, the destination hypervisor sets the MAC filter on the VF and plugs it back to the guest to switch over to VF datapath. It uses the generic failover framework that provides 2 functions to create and destroy a master failover netdev. When STANDBY feature is enabled, an additional netdev(failover netdev) is created that acts as a master device and tracks the state of the 2 lower netdevs. The original virtio_net netdev is marked as 'standby' netdev and a passthru device with the same MAC is registered as 'primary' netdev. This patch is based on the discussion initiated by Jesse on this thread. https://marc.info/?l=linux-virtualization&m=151189725224231&w=2 Signed-off-by: Sridhar Samudrala <sridhar.samudrala@xxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/net/Kconfig | 1 + drivers/net/virtio_net.c | 38 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++- 2 files changed, 38 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/drivers/net/Kconfig b/drivers/net/Kconfig index a029b27fd002..30e3bb0532e4 100644 --- a/drivers/net/Kconfig +++ b/drivers/net/Kconfig @@ -332,6 +332,7 @@ config VETH config VIRTIO_NET tristate "Virtio network driver" depends on VIRTIO + select NET_FAILOVER ---help--- This is the virtual network driver for virtio.
