Wei Liu 16ecba2605 netback: remove redundant assignment
New value for netbk->mmap_pages[pending_idx] is assigned in
xen_netbk_alloc_page(), no need for a second assignment which
exposes internal to the outside world.

Eric Dumazet 9e903e0852 net: add skb frag size accessors
To ease skb->truesize sanitization, its better to be able to localize
all references to skb frags size.

Define accessors : skb_frag_size() to fetch frag size, and
skb_frag_size_{set|add|sub}() to manipulate it.

Ian Campbell ea066ad158 xen: netback: convert to SKB paged frag API.
netback currently uses frag->page to store a temporary index reference while
processing incoming requests. Since frag->page is to become opaque switch
instead to using page_offset. Add a wrapper to tidy this up and propagate the
fact that the indexes are only u16 through the code (this was already true in
practice but unsigned long and in were inconsistently used as variable and
parameter types)

David Vrabel d0e5d83284 net: xen-netback: correctly restart Tx after a VM restore/migrate
If a VM is saved and restored (or migrated) the netback driver will no
longer process any Tx packets from the frontend.  xenvif_up() does not
schedule the processing of any pending Tx requests from the front end
because the carrier is off.  Without this initial kick the frontend
just adds Tx requests to the ring without raising an event (until the
ring is full).

This was caused by 47103041e9 (net:
xen-netback: convert to hw_features) which reordered the calls to
xenvif_up() and netif_carrier_on() in xenvif_connect().

The later causes warnings with gcc 4.5+. __CONST_RING_SIZE was introduced in
667c78afae to fix this but as netback wasn't upstream at the time it did not
benefit, hence:

Ian Campbell f942dc2552 xen network backend driver
netback is the host side counterpart to the frontend driver in
drivers/net/xen-netfront.c. The PV protocol is also implemented by
frontend drivers in other OSes too, such as the BSDs and even Windows.

The patch is based on the driver from the xen.git pvops kernel tree but
has been put through the checkpatch.pl wringer plus several manual
cleanup passes and review iterations. The driver has been moved from
drivers/xen/netback to drivers/net/xen-netback.

One major change from xen.git is that the guest transmit path (i.e. what
looks like receive to netback) has been significantly reworked to remove
the dependency on the out of tree PageForeign page flag (a core kernel
patch which enables a per page destructor callback on the final
put_page). This page flag was used in order to implement a grant map
based transmit path (where guest pages are mapped directly into SKB
frags). Instead this version of netback uses grant copy operations into
regular memory belonging to the backend domain. Reinstating the grant
map functionality is something which I would like to revisit in the
future.

Note that this driver depends on 2e820f58f7 "xen/irq: implement
bind_interdomain_evtchn_to_irqhandler for backend drivers" which is in
linux next via the "xen-two" tree and is intended for the 2.6.39 merge
window:
        git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/konrad/xen.git stable/backends
this branch has only that single commit since 2.6.38-rc2 and is safe for
cross merging into the net branch.
