[PATCH 0/2] Initialize vDPA speed/duplex and support their updates

From: Carlos Bilbao <cbilbao@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

Initialize speed and duplex for virtio_net_config to UNKNOWN (mlx5_vdpa
vDPA devices currently do not support VIRTIO_NET_F_SPEED_DUPLEX). Include
logic to update these fields (for VHOST_VDPA_SET_CONFIG) -- even if
hardware support is not capable yet (Make a note of that). Also add warning
messages for out of bounds errors in mlx5_vnet get/set_config logic.

Note: You can test these changes from user space passing a fd of your
file "/dev/vhost-vdpa-%d" to:

void check_config_speed_duplex(int fd) {

uint8_t *buf;
uint32_t size;
struct vhost_vdpa_config *config;
struct virtio_net_config *net_config;

if (ioctl(fd, VHOST_VDPA_GET_CONFIG_SIZE, &size) < 0) {
perror("ioctl failed");
return;
}

config = malloc(sizeof(struct vhost_vdpa_config) + size);

if (!config) {
perror("malloc failed");
return;
}

memset(config, 0, sizeof(struct vhost_vdpa_config) + size);
config->len = size;
config->off = 0;

buf = config->buf;

if (ioctl(fd, VHOST_VDPA_GET_CONFIG, config) < 0) {
perror("ioctl failed");
}
else {
net_config = (struct virtio_net_config *)buf;

printf(" Speed: %u Mb\n", net_config->speed);

if (net_config->duplex == 0)
printf(" Half Duplex\n);
else if (net_config->duplex == 1)
printf(" Full Duplex\n");
else
printf(" Unknown Duplex\n");
}

free(config);
}

Carlos Bilbao:
mlx5_vnet: Set speed and duplex of vDPA devices to UNKNOWN
vdpa: Add support to update speed/duplex in vDPA/mlx5_vnet
