[PATCH net v2 0/2] vsock/virtio: fixes about packet delivery to monitoring devices

[Stefano Garzarella]

During the review of v1, Stefan pointed out an issue introduced by
that patch, where replies can appear in the packet capture before
the transmitted packet.

While fixing my patch, reverting it and adding a new flag in
'struct virtio_vsock_pkt' (patch 2/2), I found that we already had
that issue in vhost-vsock, so I fixed it (patch 1/2).

v1 -> v2:
- reverted the v1 patch, to avoid that replies can appear in the
  packet capture before the transmitted packet [Stefan]
- added patch to fix packet delivering to monitoring devices in
  vhost-vsock
- added patch to check if the packet is already delivered to
  monitoring devices

v1: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netdev/patch/20200421092527.41651-1-sgarzare@redhat.com/

[PATCH net v2 1/2] vhost/vsock: fix packet delivery order to monitoring devices

[Stefano Garzarella]

We want to deliver packets to monitoring devices before it is
put in the virtqueue, to avoid that replies can appear in the
packet capture before the transmitted packet.

[PATCH net v2 2/2] vsock/virtio: fix multiple packet delivery to monitoring devices

[Stefano Garzarella]

In virtio_transport.c, if the virtqueue is full, the transmitting
packet is queued up and it will be sent in the next iteration.
This causes the same packet to be delivered multiple times to
monitoring devices.

We want to continue to deliver packets to monitoring devices before
it is put in the virtqueue, to avoid that replies can appear in the
packet capture before the transmitted packet.

This patch fixes the issue, adding a new flag (tap_delivered) in
struct virtio_vsock_pkt, to check if the packet is already delivered
to monitoring devices.

In vhost/vsock.c, we are splitting packets, so we must set
'tap_delivered' to false when we queue up the same virtio_vsock_pkt
to handle the remaining bytes.
