541dc0d47f Use new macro QEMU_PACKED for packed structures
Most changes were made using these commands:

git grep -la '__attribute__((packed))'|xargs perl -pi -e 's/__attribute__\(\(packed\)\)/QEMU_PACKED/'
git grep -la '__attribute__ ((packed))'|xargs perl -pi -e 's/__attribute__ \(\(packed\)\)/QEMU_PACKED/'
git grep -la '__attribute__((__packed__))'|xargs perl -pi -e 's/__attribute__\(\(__packed__\)\)/QEMU_PACKED/'
git grep -la '__attribute__ ((__packed__))'|xargs perl -pi -e 's/__attribute__ \(\(__packed__\)\)/QEMU_PACKED/'
git grep -la '__attribute((packed))'|xargs perl -pi -e 's/__attribute\(\(packed\)\)/QEMU_PACKED/'

Whitespace in linux-user/syscall_defs.h was fixed manually
to avoid warnings from scripts/checkpatch.pl.

Manual changes were also applied to hw/pc.c.

I did not fix indentation with tabs in block/vvfat.c.
The patch will show 4 errors with scripts/checkpatch.pl.

a697a334b3 virtio-net: Introduce a new bottom half packet TX
Based on a patch from Mark McLoughlin, this patch introduces a new
bottom half packet transmitter that avoids the latency imposed by
the tx_timer approach.  Rather than scheduling a timer when a TX
packet comes in, schedule a bottom half to be run from the iothread.
The bottom half handler first attempts to flush the queue with
notification disabled (this is where we could race with a guest
without txburst).  If we flush a full burst, reschedule immediately.
If we send short of a full burst, try to re-enable notification.
To avoid a race with TXs that may have occurred, we must then
flush again.  If we find some packets to send, the guest it probably
active, so we can reschedule again.

tx_timer and tx_bh are mutually exclusive, so we can re-use the
tx_waiting flag to indicate one or the other needs to be setup.
This allows us to seamlessly migrate between timer and bh TX
handling.

The bottom half handler becomes the new default and we add a new
tx= option to virtio-net-pci.  Usage:

-device virtio-net-pci,tx=timer # select timer mitigation vs "bh"

e3f30488e5 virtio-net: Limit number of packets sent per TX flush
If virtio_net_flush_tx() is called with notification disabled, we can
race with the guest, processing packets at the same rate as they
get produced.  The trouble is that this means we have no guaranteed
exit condition from the function and can spend minutes in there.
Currently flush_tx is only called with notification on, which seems
to limit us to one pass through the queue per call.  An upcoming
patch changes this.

Also add an option to set this value on the command line as different
workloads may wish to use different values.  We can't necessarily
support any random value, so this is a developer option: x-txburst=
Usage:

-device virtio-net-pci,x-txburst=64 # 64 packets per tx flush

One pass through the queue (256) seems to be a good default value
for this, balancing latency with throughput.  We use a signed int
for x-txburst because 2^31 packets in a burst would take many, many
minutes to process and it allows us to easily return a negative
value value from virtio_net_flush_tx() to indicate a back-off
or error condition.

f0c07c7c7b virtio-net: Make tx_timer timeout configurable
Add an option to make the TX mitigation timer adjustable as a device
option.  The 150us hard coded default used currently is reasonable,
but may not be suitable for all workloads, this gives us a way to
adjust it using a single binary.  We can't support any random option
though, so use the "x-" prefix to indicate this is a developer
option.  Usage:

-device virtio-net-pci,x-txtimer=500000,... # .5ms timeout

8172539d21 virtio: add features as qdev properties
Add feature bits as properties to virtio. This makes it possible to e.g. define
machine without indirect buffer support, which is required for 0.10
compatibility, or without hardware checksum support, which is required for 0.11
compatibility.  Since default values for optional features are now set by qdev,
get_features callback has been modified: it sets non-optional bits, and clears
bits not supported by host.

b6503ed9b8 qemu:virtio-net: Add additional MACs via a filter table (Alex Williamson)
Create a filter table and allow the guest to populate it with the
MAC class control commands.  We manage the size and usage of the
filter table including enabling promiscuous and all-multi modes
as necessary.  The guest should therefore assume the table is
infinite.  Eventually this might allow us to bind directly to a
hardware NIC and manipulate a physical MAC filter.

The specifics of the TABLE_SET command are documented in
virtio-net.h.  Separate buffers in the same command are used
for unicaste and multicast addresses for priority and
sychronization.  With this we can export the VIRTIO_NET_F_CTRL_RX
feature bit.

Add a new RX_MODE control virtqueue class with commands PROMISC and
ALLMULTI and usage documented in virtio-net.h allowing the guest to

Note, for compatibility with older guest drivers we need to default
to promiscuous.

This will be used for RX mode, MAC table, VLAN table control, etc...

The control transaction consists of one or more "out" sg entries and
one or more "in" sg entries.  The first out entry contains a header
defining the class and command.  Additional out entries may provide
data for the command.  A response via the ack entry is required
and the guest will typically be waiting for it.
