[Qemu-devel] RDMA wrongly detected as being supported on FreeBSD

[Qemu-devel] RDMA wrongly detected as being supported on FreeBSD

[Rebecca Cran]

In commit 18a398f6a39df4b08ff86ac0d38384193ca5f4cc, ./configure on
FreeBSD incorrectly detects RDMA support, with the build subsequently
failing with:

/home/bcran/workspace/qemu/hw/rdma/vmw/pvrdma_cmd.c:19:10: fatal error:

When was it still working for you the last time? Was it still working
with v3.0-rc1 ? Or just with v2.12 ? Any chance that you could bisect
the problem to determine when it has been introduced?

configure is looking for the rdma related libraries,  if they are there,
the rdma code will be compiled into QEMU.

You can try and run configure with --disable-rdma flag until we find
a solution.

Note that this flag is tied to both the RMDA migration and the RDMA
device emulation; RDMA migration may well be working for the reporter.

Note that the error has been reported to happen on FreeBSD - so I doubt
that this <linux/types.h> header should be here.

Anyway, our include/standard-headers/linux/types.h is also empty ... so
could you try whether it compiles if you simply remove this #include
line, Rebecca?

That's in case they don't care for either RDMA functionality of course -
to be used until we would find a solution.

Sorry for the delay, I'm just getting back to this. Removing the include
causes it to fail later on, with:

Since I'm not interested in RDMA support, I can work around it by
passing --disable-rdma on the command line.

I'm not sure if it's FreeBSD that might have changed to cause things to
break as well, since I _am_ running 12.0-CURRENT (i.e. HEAD).

However, I did some bisection and v2.12.0-rc0 and newer is broken, while
v2.11.0 works.

OK, thanks for checking. According to

 https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=mremap&manpath=NetBSD+5.0

that syscall should also be available on FreeBSD. So could you please do
one more test and see whether it works when you add the following line
somewhere at the beginning of the file:

  #include <sys/mman.h>

 Thanks,
  Thomas

It took some time, but I finally have a FreeBSD VM with RDMA enabled.

My findings:
- The RDMA libraries are there, so the flag  "RDMA"=yes is set correctly.
- include of <linux/types.h> is not needed, I will remove it.
- In FreeBSD mremap is not implemented in all configurations, it depends
   on some SANITIZER_LINUX flag (Linux emulation?), I think;
   so pvrdma cannot be compiled.  I think we should have a different 
QEMU configuration
   flag --enable-pvrdma that will specifically check it is not a "bsd" 
platform.
   I'll send a patch for that too.

Thanks,
Marcel

A good idea.

So, do i get it right that you will "revert back" the things we did
to--enable-rdma and do all our stuff in new --enable-pvrdma section?

Yes, but I plan to do it as a patch "on top" rather than reverting the 
actual commit.

I'm a little bit disoriented. The linked page is from NetBSD in a very
old version 5.x. We have 8.0 out now.

The thread is about FreeBSD. If there are any questions regarding
NetBSD, please let me know.

Indeed, the linked page didn't help, we are referring to FreeBSD
which doesn't support mremap, at least by default.
