[PATCH V5 3/3] tuntap: allow polling/writing/reading when detached
From: Jason Wang
Date: Wed Jan 16 2013 - 05:42:33 EST
We forbid polling, writing and reading when the file were detached, this may
complex the user in several cases:
- when guest pass some buffers to vhost/qemu and then disable some queues,
host/qemu needs to do its own cleanup on those buffers which is complex
sometimes. We can do this simply by allowing a user can still write to an
disabled queue. Write to an disabled queue will cause the packet pass to the
kernel and read will get nothing.
- align the polling behavior with macvtap which never fails when the queue is
created. This can simplify the polling errors handling of its user (e.g vhost)
In order to achieve this, tfile->tun were not assign to NULL when detached. And
tfile->tun were converted to be RCU protected in order to let the data path can
check whether the file is deated in a lockless manner. This will be used to
prevent the flow caches from being updated for a detached queue.
