When a link change occurs on a backend (like tap), we currently do
not propage such change to the nic. As a result, when someone turns
off a link on a tap device, for instance, then a guest doesn't see
that change and continues to try to send traffic or run DHCP even
though the lower-layer is disconnected. This is OK when the network
is set up as a HUB since the the guest may be connected to other HUB
ports too, but when it's set up as a netdev, it makes thinkgs worse.
The patch addresses this by setting the peers link down only when the
peer is not a HUBPORT device. With this patch, in the following config
-netdev tap,id=net0 -device e1000,mac=XXXXX,netdev=net0
when net0 link is turned off, the guest e1000 shows lower-layer link
down. This allows guests to boot much faster in such configurations.
With windows guest, it also allows the network to recover properly
since windows will not configure the link-local IPv4 address, and
when the link is turned on, the proper address address is configured.

This patch adds support for a network backend based on netmap.
netmap is a framework for high speed packet I/O. You can use it
to build extremely fast traffic generators, monitors, software
switches or network middleboxes. Its companion software switch
VALE lets you interconnect virtual machines.
netmap and VALE are implemented as a non-intrusive kernel module,
support NICs from multiple vendors, are part of standard FreeBSD
distributions and available in source format for Linux too.
To compile QEMU with netmap support, use the following configure
options:
./configure [...] --enable-netmap --extra-cflags=-I/path/to/netmap/sys
where "/path/to/netmap" contains the netmap source code, available at
http://info.iet.unipi.it/~luigi/netmap/
The same webpage contains more information about the netmap project
(together with papers and presentations).

Currently macvtap based macvlan device is working in promiscuous
mode, we want to implement mac-programming over macvtap through
Libvirt for better performance.
Design:
QEMU notifies Libvirt when rx-filter config is changed in guest,
then Libvirt query the rx-filter information by a monitor command,
and sync the change to macvtap device. Related rx-filter config
of the nic contains main mac, rx-mode items and vlan table.
This patch adds a QMP event to notify management of rx-filter change,
and adds a monitor command for management to query rx-filter
information.
Test:
If we repeatedly add/remove vlan, and change macaddr of vlan
interfaces in guest by a loop script.
Result:
The events will flood the QMP client(management), management takes
too much resource to process the events.
Event_throttle API (set rate to 1 ms) can avoid the events to flood
QMP client, but it could cause an unexpected delay (~1ms), guests
guests normally expect rx-filter updates immediately.
So we use a flag for each nic to avoid events flooding, the event
is emitted once until the query command is executed. The flag
implementation could not introduce unexpected delay.
There maybe exist an uncontrollable delay if we let Libvirt do the
real change, guests normally expect rx-filter updates immediately.
But it's another separate issue, we can investigate it when the
work in Libvirt side is done.

Socket buffer sizes were hard-coded to 4K for VDE and socket netdevs. Bump this

of room for the ethernet and virtio_net headers.
Originally, ran into this limitation when using -netdev UDP sockets to connect
VM-to-VM, where VM interface is configure with MTU=9000. (Using virtio_net
NIC model). Test is simple: ping -M do -s 8500 <target>. This test will
attempt to ping with unfragmented packet of given size. Without patch, size
is limited to < 4K (minus protocol hdrs). With patch, ping test works with pkt
size up to 9000 (again, minus protocol hdrs).
v2: per Stefan, increase buf size to (4096+65536) as done in tap and apply
to vde and socket netdevs.

In the current implementation of qemu, running without a network
backend will cause the queue to grow unbounded when the guest is
transmitting traffic.
This patch fixes the problem by implementing bounded size NetQueue,
used with an arbitrary limit of 10000 packets, and dropping packets
when the queue is full _and_ the sender does not pass a callback.
The second condition makes sure that we never drop packets that
contains a callback (which would be tricky, because the producer
expects the callback to be run when all previous packets have been
consumed; so we cannot run it when the packet is dropped).
If documentation is correct, producers that submit a callback should
stop sending when their packet is queued, so there is no real risk
that the queue exceeds the max size by large values.

quemu tries to flush packets from queue-B, which is unfortunately empty.

1ceef9f273 added handling for cleaning
up multiple queues in qemu_del_nic() for cases where multiqueue is in
use. To determine the number of queues it looks at nic->conf->queues,
then iterates through all the queues to cleanup the associated
NetClientStates. If no queues are found, no NetClientStates are deleted.
However, nic->conf->queues is only set when a peer is created via
-netdev or netdev_add, and is otherwise 0. This causes us to spin in
net_cleanup() if we attempt to shut down qemu before adding a host
device.
Since qemu_new_nic() unconditionally creates at least 1

Recently, linux support multiqueue tap which could let userspace call TUNSETIFF
for a signle device many times to create multiple file descriptors as
independent queues. User could also enable/disabe a specific queue through
TUNSETQUEUE.
The patch adds the generic infrastructure to create multiqueue taps. To achieve
this a new parameter "queues" were introduced to specify how many queues were
expected to be created for tap by qemu itself. Alternatively, management could
also pass multiple pre-created tap file descriptors separated with ':' through a
new parameter fds like -netdev tap,id=hn0,fds="X:Y:..:Z". Multiple vhost file
descriptors could also be passed in this way.
Each TAPState were still associated to a tap fd, which mean multiple TAPStates
were created when user needs multiqueue taps. Since each TAPState contains one
NetClientState, with the multiqueue nic support, an N peers of NetClientState
were built up.
A new parameter, mq_required were introduce in tap_open() to create multiqueue
tap fds.

After this change, all NetClientState that belongs to the same backend/nic has
