/*
* Older implementation of Xen network frontend / backend has an
* implicit dependency on the MAX_SKB_FRAGS as the maximum number of
* ring slots a skb can use. Netfront / netback may not work as
* expected when frontend and backend have different MAX_SKB_FRAGS.
*
* A better approach is to add mechanism for netfront / netback to
* negotiate this value. However we cannot fix all possible
* frontends, so we need to define a value which states the minimum
* slots backend must support.
*
* The minimum value derives from older Linux kernel's MAX_SKB_FRAGS
* (18), which is proved to work with most frontends. Any new backend
* which doesn't negotiate with frontend should expect frontend to
* send a valid packet using slots up to this value.
*/
#define XEN_NETIF_NR_SLOTS_MIN 18
/*
* Notifications after enqueuing any type of message should be conditional on
* the appropriate req_event or rsp_event field in the shared ring.
* If the client sends notification for rx requests then it should specify
* feature 'feature-rx-notify' via xenbus. Otherwise the backend will assume
* that it cannot safely queue packets (as it may not be kicked to send them).
*/
/*
* "feature-split-event-channels" is introduced to separate guest TX
* and RX notification. Backend either doesn't support this feature or
* advertises it via xenstore as 0 (disabled) or 1 (enabled).
*
* To make use of this feature, frontend should allocate two event
* channels for TX and RX, advertise them to backend as
* "event-channel-tx" and "event-channel-rx" respectively. If frontend
* doesn't want to use this feature, it just writes "event-channel"
* node as before.
*/
/*
* Multiple transmit and receive queues:
* If supported, the backend will write the key "multi-queue-max-queues" to
* the directory for that vif, and set its value to the maximum supported
* number of queues.
* Frontends that are aware of this feature and wish to use it can write the
* key "multi-queue-num-queues", set to the number they wish to use, which
* must be greater than zero, and no more than the value reported by the backend
* in "multi-queue-max-queues".
*
* Queues replicate the shared rings and event channels.
* "feature-split-event-channels" may optionally be used when using
* multiple queues, but is not mandatory.
*
* Each queue consists of one shared ring pair, i.e. there must be the same
* number of tx and rx rings.
*
* For frontends requesting just one queue, the usual event-channel and
* ring-ref keys are written as before, simplifying the backend processing
* to avoid distinguishing between a frontend that doesn't understand the
* multi-queue feature, and one that does, but requested only one queue.
*
* Frontends requesting two or more queues must not write the toplevel
* event-channel (or event-channel-{tx,rx}) and {tx,rx}-ring-ref keys,
* instead writing those keys under sub-keys having the name "queue-N" where
* N is the integer ID of the queue for which those keys belong. Queues
* are indexed from zero. For example, a frontend with two queues and split
* event channels must write the following set of queue-related keys:
*
* /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/multi-queue-num-queues = "2"
* /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-0 = ""
* /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-0/tx-ring-ref = "<ring-ref-tx0>"
* /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-0/rx-ring-ref = "<ring-ref-rx0>"
* /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-0/event-channel-tx = "<evtchn-tx0>"
* /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-0/event-channel-rx = "<evtchn-rx0>"
* /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-1 = ""
* /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-1/tx-ring-ref = "<ring-ref-tx1>"
* /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-1/rx-ring-ref = "<ring-ref-rx1"
* /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-1/event-channel-tx = "<evtchn-tx1>"
* /local/domain/1/device/vif/0/queue-1/event-channel-rx = "<evtchn-rx1>"
*
* If there is any inconsistency in the XenStore data, the backend may
* choose not to connect any queues, instead treating the request as an
* error. This includes scenarios where more (or fewer) queues were
* requested than the frontend provided details for.
*
* Mapping of packets to queues is considered to be a function of the
* transmitting system (backend or frontend) and is not negotiated
* between the two. Guests are free to transmit packets on any queue
* they choose, provided it has been set up correctly. Guests must be
* prepared to receive packets on any queue they have requested be set up.
*/
/*
* "feature-no-csum-offload" should be used to turn IPv4 TCP/UDP checksum
* offload off or on. If it is missing then the feature is assumed to be on.
* "feature-ipv6-csum-offload" should be used to turn IPv6 TCP/UDP checksum
* offload on or off. If it is missing then the feature is assumed to be off.
*/
/*
* "feature-gso-tcpv4" and "feature-gso-tcpv6" advertise the capability to
* handle large TCP packets (in IPv4 or IPv6 form respectively). Neither
* frontends nor backends are assumed to be capable unless the flags are
* present.
*/
/*
* "feature-multicast-control" advertises the capability to filter ethernet
* multicast packets in the backend. To enable use of this capability the
* frontend must set "request-multicast-control" before moving into the
* connected state.
*
* If "request-multicast-control" is set then the backend transmit side should
* no longer flood multicast packets to the frontend, it should instead drop any
* multicast packet that does not match in a filter list. The list is
* amended by the frontend by sending dummy transmit requests containing
* XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_TYPE_MCAST_{ADD,DEL} extra-info fragments as specified below.
* Once enabled by the frontend, the feature cannot be disabled except by
* closing and re-connecting to the backend.
*/

* This is the 'wire' format for packets:
* Request 1: netif_tx_request_t -- NETTXF_* (any flags)
* [Request 2: netif_extra_info_t] (only if request 1 has NETTXF_extra_info)
