+ * 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.

+ * 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.

+ * Control ring
+ * ============
+ *
+ * Some features, such as hashing (detailed below), require a
+ * significant amount of out-of-band data to be passed from frontend to
+ * backend. Use of xenstore is not suitable for large quantities of data
+ * because of quota limitations and so a dedicated 'control ring' is used.
+ * The ability of the backend to use a control ring is advertised by
+ * setting:
+ *
+ * /local/domain/X/backend/<domid>/<vif>/feature-ctrl-ring = "1"
+ *
+ * The frontend provides a control ring to the backend by setting:
+ *
+ * /local/domain/<domid>/device/vif/<vif>/ctrl-ring-ref = <gref>
+ * /local/domain/<domid>/device/vif/<vif>/event-channel-ctrl = <port>
+ *
+ * where <gref> is the grant reference of the shared page used to
+ * implement the control ring and <port> is an event channel to be used
+ * as a mailbox interrupt. These keys must be set before the frontend
+ * moves into the connected state.
+ *
+ * The control ring uses a fixed request/response message size and is
+ * balanced (i.e. one request to one response), so operationally it is much
+ * the same as a transmit or receive ring.
+ * Note that there is no requirement that responses are issued in the same

+ * XEN_NETIF_CTRL_TYPE_SET_HASH_FLAGS
+ * ----------------------------------
+ *
+ * This is sent by the frontend to set the types of hash that the backend

+ * Guest transmit
+ * ==============
+ *
+ * This is the 'wire' format for transmit (frontend -> backend) packets:
+ *
+ * Fragment 1: xen_netif_tx_request_t - flags = XEN_NETTXF_*
+ * size = total packet size
+ * [Extra 1: xen_netif_extra_info_t] - (only if fragment 1 flags include
+ * XEN_NETTXF_extra_info)
+ * ...
+ * [Extra N: xen_netif_extra_info_t] - (only if extra N-1 flags include
+ * XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_MORE)
+ * ...
+ * Fragment N: xen_netif_tx_request_t - (only if fragment N-1 flags include
+ * XEN_NETTXF_more_data - flags on preceding
+ * extras are not relevant here)
+ * flags = 0
+ * size = fragment size
+ *
+ * NOTE:
+ *
+ * This format slightly is different from that used for receive
+ * (backend -> frontend) packets. Specifically, in a multi-fragment
+ * packet the actual size of fragment 1 can only be determined by
+ * subtracting the sizes of fragments 2..N from the total packet size.
+ *
+ * Ring slot size is 12 octets, however not all request/response
+ * structs use the full size.
+ *
+ * tx request data (xen_netif_tx_request_t)
+ * ------------------------------------
+ *
+ * 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 octet
+ * +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+
+ * | grant ref | offset | flags |
+ * +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+
+ * | id | size |
+ * +-----+-----+-----+-----+
+ *
+ * grant ref: Reference to buffer page.
+ * offset: Offset within buffer page.
+ * flags: XEN_NETTXF_*.
+ * id: request identifier, echoed in response.
+ * size: packet size in bytes.
+ *
+ * tx response (xen_netif_tx_response_t)
+ * ---------------------------------
+ *
+ * 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 octet
+ * +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+
+ * | id | status | unused |

+ * +-----+-----+-----+-----+
+ *
+ * id: reflects id in transmit request
+ * status: XEN_NETIF_RSP_*
+ *
+ * Guest receive
+ * =============
+ *
+ * This is the 'wire' format for receive (backend -> frontend) packets:
+ *
+ * Fragment 1: xen_netif_rx_request_t - flags = XEN_NETRXF_*
+ * size = fragment size
+ * [Extra 1: xen_netif_extra_info_t] - (only if fragment 1 flags include
+ * XEN_NETRXF_extra_info)
+ * ...
+ * [Extra N: xen_netif_extra_info_t] - (only if extra N-1 flags include
+ * XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_MORE)
+ * ...
+ * Fragment N: xen_netif_rx_request_t - (only if fragment N-1 flags include
+ * XEN_NETRXF_more_data - flags on preceding
+ * extras are not relevant here)
+ * flags = 0
+ * size = fragment size
+ *
+ * NOTE:
+ *
+ * This format slightly is different from that used for transmit
+ * (frontend -> backend) packets. Specifically, in a multi-fragment
+ * packet the size of the packet can only be determined by summing the
+ * sizes of fragments 1..N.
+ *
+ * Ring slot size is 8 octets.
+ *
+ * rx request (xen_netif_rx_request_t)
+ * -------------------------------
+ *
+ * 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 octet
+ * +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+
+ * | id | pad | gref |
+ * +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+
+ *
+ * id: request identifier, echoed in response.
+ * gref: reference to incoming granted frame.
+ *
+ * rx response (xen_netif_rx_response_t)
+ * ---------------------------------
+ *
+ * 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 octet
+ * +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+
+ * | id | offset | flags | status |
+ * +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+
+ *
+ * id: reflects id in receive request
+ * offset: offset in page of start of received packet
+ * flags: XEN_NETRXF_*
+ * status: -ve: XEN_NETIF_RSP_*; +ve: Rx'ed pkt size.
+ *
+ * NOTE: Historically, to support GSO on the frontend receive side, Linux
+ * netfront does not make use of the rx response id (because, as
+ * described below, extra info structures overlay the id field).
+ * Instead it assumes that responses always appear in the same ring
+ * slot as their corresponding request. Thus, to maintain
+ * compatibility, backends must make sure this is the case.
+ *
+ * Extra Info
+ * ==========
+ *
+ * Can be present if initial request or response has NET{T,R}XF_extra_info,
+ * or previous extra request has XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_MORE.
+ *
+ * The struct therefore needs to fit into either a tx or rx slot and
+ * is therefore limited to 8 octets.
+ *
+ * NOTE: Because extra info data overlays the usual request/response
+ * structures, there is no id information in the opposite direction.
+ * So, if an extra info overlays an rx response the frontend can
+ * assume that it is in the same ring slot as the request that was
+ * consumed to make the slot available, and the backend must ensure
+ * this assumption is true.
+ *
+ * extra info (xen_netif_extra_info_t)
+ * -------------------------------
+ *
+ * General format:
+ *
+ * 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 octet
+ * +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+
+ * |type |flags| type specific data |
+ * +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+

+ * +-----+-----+-----+-----+
+ *
+ * type: XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_TYPE_*
+ * flags: XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_FLAG_*
+ * padding for tx: present only in the tx case due to 8 octet limit
+ * from rx case. Not shown in type specific entries
+ * below.
+ *
+ * XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_TYPE_GSO:
+ *
+ * 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 octet
+ * +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+
+ * |type |flags| size |type | pad | features |
+ * +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+
+ *
+ * type: Must be XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_TYPE_GSO
+ * flags: XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_FLAG_*
+ * size: Maximum payload size of each segment. For example,
+ * for TCP this is just the path MSS.
+ * type: XEN_NETIF_GSO_TYPE_*: This determines the protocol of
+ * the packet and any extra features required to segment the
+ * packet properly.
+ * features: EN_XEN_NETIF_GSO_FEAT_*: This specifies any extra GSO
+ * features required to process this packet, such as ECN
+ * support for TCPv4.
+ *
+ * XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_TYPE_MCAST_{ADD,DEL}:
+ *
+ * 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 octet
+ * +-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+

+ *
+ * type: Must be XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_TYPE_MCAST_{ADD,DEL}
+ * flags: XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_FLAG_*
+ * addr: address to add/remove
+ *
+ * XEN_NETIF_EXTRA_TYPE_HASH:
+ *
+ * A backend that supports teoplitz hashing is assumed to accept
+ * this type of extra info in transmit packets.
+ * A frontend that enables hashing is assumed to accept
+ * this type of extra info in receive packets.
+ *
+ * 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 octet
