[PATCH v4 00/10] vhost-user: Preparatory series for multiple iovec entries per virtqueue element
by Laurent Vivier 21 May '26

21 May '26

Currently, the vhost-user path assumes each virtqueue element contains exactly one iovec entry covering the entire frame. This assumption breaks as some virtio-net drivers (notably iPXE) provide descriptors where the vnet header and the frame payload are in separate buffers, resulting in two iovec entries per virtqueue element. This series refactors the vhost-user data path so that frame lengths, header sizes, and padding are tracked and passed explicitly rather than being derived from iovec sizes. This decoupling is a prerequisite for correctly handling padding of multi-buffer frames. The changes in this series can be split in 3 groups: - New iov helpers (patches 1-2): iov_memset() and iov_memcpy() operate across iovec boundaries. These are needed by the final patch to pad and copy frame data when a frame spans multiple iovec entries. - Structural refactoring (patches 3-5): Move vnethdr setup into vu_flush(), separate virtqueue management from socket I/O in the UDP path, and pass iov arrays explicitly instead of using file-scoped state. These changes make it possible to pass explicit frame lengths through the stack, which is required to pad frames independently of iovec layout. - Explicit length passing throughout the stack (patches 6-10): Thread explicit L4, L2, frame, and data lengths through checksum, pcap, vu_flush(), and tcp_fill_headers(), replacing lengths that were previously derived from iovec sizes. With lengths tracked explicitly, the final patch can centralise Ethernet frame padding into vu_collect() and a new vu_pad() helper that correctly pads frames spanning multiple iovec entries. v4: - rebase - iov_memcpy: use size_t for loop indices i and j - udp_vu: reorder elem[] declaration for inverted christmas tree style - pcap: wrap pcap_iov() declaration and definition to respect line length - write_remainder(): update length parameter description - Add Reviewed-by tags from Jon and David v3: - csum_udp4()/csum_udp6()/udp_vu_csum receive payload length (dlen) rather than l4len - Add a length parameter to write_remainder() and use it in pcap_frame() v2: - Rename iov_memcopy() to iov_memcpy() and use clearer parameter names - Use clearer code in pcap_frame() - Add braces around bodies in pcap.c and tcp_vu.c for style consistency - Extract l2len variable in tap_add_packet() and tcp_vu_send_flag() to avoid repeating the same expression - Fix indentation alignment of iov_skip_bytes() arguments in tcp_vu_c - Introduce fill_size variable in vu_flush() - Reposition comment for ETH_ZLEN in vu_collect() Laurent Vivier (10): iov: Introduce iov_memset() iov: Add iov_memcpy() to copy data between iovec arrays vu_common: Move vnethdr setup into vu_flush() udp_vu: Move virtqueue management from udp_vu_sock_recv() to its caller udp_vu: Pass iov explicitly to helpers instead of using file-scoped array checksum: Pass explicit L4 length to checksum functions pcap: Pass explicit L2 length to pcap_iov() vu_common: Pass explicit frame length to vu_flush() tcp: Pass explicit data length to tcp_fill_headers() vhost-user: Centralise Ethernet frame padding in vu_collect() and vu_pad() checksum.c | 43 +++++++----- checksum.h | 6 +- iov.c | 77 ++++++++++++++++++++++ iov.h | 5 ++ pcap.c | 29 ++++++--- pcap.h | 3 +- tap.c | 10 +-- tcp.c | 14 ++-- tcp_buf.c | 3 +- tcp_internal.h | 2 +- tcp_vu.c | 66 ++++++++++--------- udp.c | 5 +- udp_vu.c | 173 +++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------------ util.c | 31 +++++++-- util.h | 3 +- vu_common.c | 58 ++++++++++------- vu_common.h | 5 +- 17 files changed, 339 insertions(+), 194 deletions(-) -- 2.54.0

[PATCH 1/6] tcp_splice: Improve error reporting
by David Gibson 21 May '26

21 May '26

A number of things can, at least theoretically, go wrong when forwarding data across a spliced connection. We generally handle this by resetting the connection on both sides. However, in many cases we don't log any message about why the connection was reset, which can make it hard to debug why this is happening. Add a bunch of debug and error logging to make this easier to figure out.

[PATCH 3/6] tcp_splice: Clean up flow control path for splice forwarding
by David Gibson 21 May '26

21 May '26

Splice forwarding can be blocked either waiting for data from one side or waiting for space on the other. For that reason, tcp_splice_sock_handler() on either socket can forward data in either or both directions, depending on whether we have EPOLLIN, EPOLLOUT or both events. The flow control for this is quite hard to follow though, since we forward in one direction, then sometimes loop back with a goto to do it in the other direction. Simplify this by adding a tcp_splice_forward() function with the logic to forward in one direction and calling it either once or twice from tcp_splice_sock_handler().

[PATCH v7 2/4] tcp_vu: Build headers on the stack and write them into the iovec
by Laurent Vivier 20 May '26

20 May '26

tcp_vu_prepare() currently assumes the first iovec element provided by the guest is large enough to hold all L2-L4 headers, and builds them in place via pointer casts into iov[0].iov_base. This assumption is enforced by an assert(). Since the headers in the buffer are uninitialized anyway, we can just as well build the Ethernet, IP, and TCP headers on the stack instead, and write them into the iovec with IOV_PUSH_HEADER(). This mirrors the approach already used in udp_vu_prepare(), and prepares for support of elements with multiple iovecs.
