Virtio interfaces should also support setting of mtu, as in case of cloud
it is expected to have the consistent mtu across the infrastructure that
the dhcp server sends and not hardcoded to 1500(default).

Changes in v4: Incorporated review comments.
Changes in v3: Corrected few style errors as reported by sys-stv.
Changes in v2: Incorporated review comments.

Hi Liu,
	Submitted the version 4 of the patch as you suggested , and have removed the Reviewed by line.
I have still kept the function definition as to follow the same suit as we have done for other eth_dev_ops.

That's because most of the method implementions are after the reference,
thus the declaration is needed.

For your case, I see no good reason to do that. BTW, if you disagree
with my comment, you shoud made a reply, instead of rushing to sending
a new version.

So that they will be showed in mailing list (for review), but they will
be gone after apply. In another word, we don't like to see those change
log in git history, but we'd like to see them while review.

Hi Liu,

Yes agreed your comment. I will definitely remove the declaration as it is not really required. 
 So the latest patch will look like this . Yes I did rush a bit to submit the patch last will correct my suite. So sending the patch in a reply if we have more comments we can take a look and they re-submit the final reviewed patch. Thanks for the help though.

Hi Souvik,

Why hardcode the values in the PMD_INIT_LOG?

Why not  do the following: PMD_INIT_LOG(ERR, "MTU should be between %d and %d", 
							 VIRTIO_MIN_RX_BUFSIZE,
					            VIRTIO_MAX_RX_PKTLEN);

That way, if the values that the macros evaluate to change, the log will update correspondingly.

Also, does 'MTU' in this context relate to the L2 or L3 MTU?

Hi Mark,

Yes I thought I did that change. Sorry once again.. making too many mistakes. Changed it . Thanks. 
The MTU here is L3 MTU.  Setting this will help in reducing the fragmented/multi-segmented packets and also in case we want to reduce the MTU below 1500, to support VXLAN or GRE tunnel for the packets in openstack and cloud environments.

Hi Souvik,

Why hardcode the values in the PMD_INIT_LOG?

Why not  do the following: PMD_INIT_LOG(ERR, "MTU should be between %d and %d", 
							 VIRTIO_MIN_RX_BUFSIZE,
					            VIRTIO_MAX_RX_PKTLEN);

That way, if the values that the macros evaluate to change, the log will update correspondingly.

Also, does 'MTU' in this context relate to the L2 or L3 MTU?

Unfortunately, that is still broken, in two ways:

- we should avoid long lines over 80 chars

- the range will not be correctly showed in the message, because ... (well,
  you know it).

If MTU is the L3 MTU as you've indicated, then you need to take account of L2 overhead before performing the comparison above.
Say the user supplies 'mtu' as 9728 - the corresponding minimum frame size is L2_HDR_LEN + 9728 + L2_CRC_LEN = 9746 bytes, which is larger than the NIC can accommodate (note that 9728 is the largest L2 frame size allowed by the NIC, not the largest IP packet size).

>+		PMD_INIT_LOG(ERR, "Mtu should be between VIRTIO_MIN_RX_BUFSIZE and
>VIRTIO_MAX_RX_PKTLEN \n");

Two things on this statement:
1) in the context of a log message, VIRTIO_XXX_RX_BUFSIZE most likely means very little, and as such is not helpful. I suggest going with the format that I included in my earlier mail, which prints the numeric value of the min and max rx defines
2) <micronit> MTU is an initialization, and should be printed as such in a log (i.e. all caps) </micronit>

Hope this helps,
Mark

Hi Mark/Liu,

              Thanks to both of you for being so patient with a series of silly errors. I have tried to make it better this time. Also there were some un-used variable in the function which I have removed. Please check the new patch with all your comments incorporated. Also along with the L2_HDR_LEN and L2_CRC_LEN, I have taken in consideration the VLAN_LEN too.



One doubt though,

"9728 is the largest L2 frame size allowed by the NIC" -- this 9728 size is some constrain due to DPDK as the virtio driver in the kernel can support till mtu size of 68 to 65535, where as in DPDK pmd we are trying with 64 to 9728.

If MTU is the L3 MTU as you've indicated, then you need to take account of L2 overhead before performing the comparison above.

Say the user supplies 'mtu' as 9728 - the corresponding minimum frame size is L2_HDR_LEN + 9728 + L2_CRC_LEN = 9746 bytes, which is larger than the NIC can accommodate (note that 9728 is the largest L2 frame size allowed by the NIC, not the largest IP packet size).



>+                        PMD_INIT_LOG(ERR, "Mtu should be between VIRTIO_MIN_RX_BUFSIZE and

>VIRTIO_MAX_RX_PKTLEN \n");



Two things on this statement:

1) in the context of a log message, VIRTIO_XXX_RX_BUFSIZE most likely means very little, and as such is not helpful. I suggest going with the format that I included in my earlier mail, which prints the numeric value of the min and max rx defines

2) <micronit> MTU is an initialization, and should be printed as such in a log (i.e. all caps) </micronit>



Hope this helps,

Mark

Subject: Re: [dpdk-dev] [PATCH v4]net/virtio: add mtu set in virtio

Hi Mark/Liu,

              Thanks to both of you for being so patient with a series of silly errors. I have tried to make it better this time. Also there were some un-used variable in the function which I have removed. Please check the new patch with all your comments incorporated. Also along with the L2_HDR_LEN and L2_CRC_LEN, I have taken in consideration the VLAN_LEN too.



One doubt though,

"9728 is the largest L2 frame size allowed by the NIC" -- this 9728 size is some constrain due to DPDK as the virtio driver in the kernel can support till mtu size of 68 to 65535, where as in DPDK pmd we are trying with 64 to 9728.

Yes, I meant the NIC as controlled by a DPDK PMD (I thought this was implicit, given the context of this discussion). I'll be more explicit in future mails though.

One thing on this function: it doesn't actually set any fields, but rather just sanitizes 'mtu'.
Maybe this is acceptable, since the calling function (i.e. rte_eth_dev_set_mtu) sets rte_eth_dev->data->mtu?

It's not clear to me whether 'mtu' in this case should be compared with ETHER_MIN_MTU, as per other DPDK drivers, or alternatively whether 'frame_size' should be compared with dev_info.min_rx_bufsize.
Any thoughts?

Yes, I meant the NIC as controlled by a DPDK PMD (I thought this was implicit, given the context of this discussion). I'll be more explicit in future mails though.

One thing on this function: it doesn't actually set any fields, but rather just sanitizes 'mtu'.
Maybe this is acceptable, since the calling function (i.e. rte_eth_dev_set_mtu) sets rte_eth_dev->data->mtu?
[Dey, Souvik]  Yes , only the sanity check for the mtu is required here and the setting of the call back, else the rte_eth_dev_set_mtu() just returns without setting the MTU in the rte_eth_dev->data->mtu.

It's not clear to me whether 'mtu' in this case should be compared with ETHER_MIN_MTU, as per other DPDK drivers, or alternatively whether 'frame_size' should be compared with dev_info.min_rx_bufsize.
Any thoughts?
[Dey, Souvik] I am not sure why virtio min_rx_bufsize is less than ETHER_MIN_MTU, i think it will be good to have the  compare statement as 
If(frame_size < ETHER_MIN_MTU || frame_size > dev_info.max_rx_pktlen) , then error. What do you suggest ?

Hi Mark/Liu,
	Is there any further comments to the below patch ? Should I submit it as v5 of the patch ?

Yes, I meant the NIC as controlled by a DPDK PMD (I thought this was implicit, given the context of this discussion). I'll be more explicit in future mails though.

One thing on this function: it doesn't actually set any fields, but rather just sanitizes 'mtu'.
Maybe this is acceptable, since the calling function (i.e. rte_eth_dev_set_mtu) sets rte_eth_dev->data->mtu?
[Dey, Souvik]  Yes , only the sanity check for the mtu is required here and the setting of the call back, else the rte_eth_dev_set_mtu() just returns without setting the MTU in the rte_eth_dev->data->mtu.

It's not clear to me whether 'mtu' in this case should be compared with ETHER_MIN_MTU, as per other DPDK drivers, or alternatively whether 'frame_size' should be compared with dev_info.min_rx_bufsize.
Any thoughts?
[Dey, Souvik] I am not sure why virtio min_rx_bufsize is less than ETHER_MIN_MTU, i think it will be good to have the  compare statement as If(frame_size < ETHER_MIN_MTU || frame_size > dev_info.max_rx_pktlen) , then error. What do you suggest ?

I think I'm okay with the patch now. But I got one more ask for you :)

In commit log, you stated:

    Virtio interfaces should also support setting of mtu, as in case of cloud
    it is expected to have the consistent mtu across the infrastructure that
    the dhcp server sends and not hardcoded to 1500(default).

What would go wrong if the expectation is not achieved? I think you should
have met some issue and you meant to fix it, right? If so, you should state
that here.

Hi Souvik, apologies for the delayed response.

That's what I thought, just wanted to verify that no additional structures should be updated here.

Again, this all depends on what 'mtu' means in this context.

Since you mentioned previously that it relates to the packet (i.e. L3) length, and not the frame (i.e. L2) length, I would suggest that the comparison should be:

	if (mtu < ETHER_MIN_MTU || frame_size > dev_info.max_rx_pktlen)

Yuanhan, any thoughts on this?

Hi Souvik, apologies for the delayed response.

That's what I thought, just wanted to verify that no additional structures should be updated here.

Again, this all depends on what 'mtu' means in this context.

Since you mentioned previously that it relates to the packet (i.e. L3) length, and not the frame (i.e. L2) length, I would suggest that the comparison should be:

	if (mtu < ETHER_MIN_MTU || frame_size > dev_info.max_rx_pktlen)

Yuanhan, any thoughts on this?

I think you are right. At least, that's how the ixgbe PMD driver code
looks like.

I don't think so, otherwise I would not comment here.

BTW, there is a format error: you used white space instead of TAB for
indention.

You might want to send another version, to fix above two issues. Or,
if you don't mind, I could fix them for you and apply it.
