OvmfPkg: VirtioFlush(): return the number of bytes written by the host
VirtioLib provides an API for simple, synchronous (request/response-style)
virtio communication. The guest driver builds one descriptor chain, link
for link, with VirtioPrepare() and VirtioAppendDesc(), then submits the
chain, and awaits the processing, with VirtioFlush().
The descriptor chain is always built at the beginning of the descriptor
area, with the head descriptor having descriptor index 0.
In order to submit the descriptor chain to the host, the guest always
pushes a new "available element" to the Available Ring, in genuine
queue-like fashion, with the new element referencing the head descriptor
(which always has index 0, see above).
In turn, after processing, the host always pushes a new "used element" to
the Used Ring, in genuine queue-like fashion, with the new element
referencing the head descriptor of the chain that was just processed. The
same element also reports the number of bytes that the host wrote,
consecutively across the host-writeable buffers that were linked by the
descriptors.
(See "OvmfPkg/VirtioNetDxe/TechNotes.txt" for a diagram about the
descriptor area and the rings.)
Because at most one descriptor chain can be in flight with VirtioLib at
any time,
- the Available Ring and the Used Ring proceed in lock-step,
- and the head descriptor that the new "available" and "used" elements can
ever reference has index 0.
Based on the above, we can modify VirtioFlush() to return the number of
bytes written by the host across the descriptor chain. The virtio-block
and virtio-scsi drivers don't care (they have other ways to parse the data
produced by the host), while the virtio-net driver doesn't use
VirtioFlush() at all (it employs VirtioLib only to set up its rings).
However, the virtio entropy device, to be covered in the upcoming
patches, reports the amount of randomness produced by the host only
through this quantity.

OvmfPkg: VirtioLib: populate the Available Ring correctly
The descriptor table (also known as "queue") consists of descriptors. (The
corresponding type in the code is VRING_DESC.)
An individual descriptor describes a contiguous buffer, to be transferred
uni-directionally between host and guest.
Several descriptors in the descriptor table can be linked into a
descriptor chain, specifying a bi-directional scatter-gather transfer
between host and guest. Such a descriptor chain is also known as "virtio
request".
(The descriptor table can host sereval descriptor chains (in-flight virtio
requests) in parallel, but the OVMF driver supports at most one chain, at
any point in time.)
The first descriptor in any descriptor chain is called "head descriptor".
In order to submit a number of parallel requests (= a set of independent
descriptor chains) from the guest to the host, the guest must put *only*
the head descriptor of each separate chain onto the Available Ring.
VirtioLib currently places the head of its one descriptor chain onto the
Available Ring repeatedly, once for each single (head *or* dependent)
descriptor in said descriptor chain. If the descriptor chain comprises N
descriptors, this error amounts to submitting the same entire chain N
times in parallel.

host status, to be filled in by host:
VirtioAppendDesc PhysAddr=3FBC604F Size=1 Flags=2 Head=1232 Next=1234
Processing on the host side -- the descriptor chain is processed three
times in parallel (its head is available to virtqueue_pop() thrice); the
same chain is submitted/collected separately to/from AIO three times:

On my Thinkpad T510 laptop with RHEL-6 as host, this probably leads to
simultaneous DMA transfers targeting the same RAM area. Even though the
source of each transfer is identical, the data is corrupted in the
destination buffer -- the CRC32 calculated over the buffer varies, even
though the origin of the transfers is the same, never rewritten LBA.

The problem is invisible on my HP Z400 workstation.
Fix the request submission by:
- building the only one descriptor chain supported by VirtioLib always at
the beginning of the descriptor table,
- ensuring the head descriptor of this chain is put on the Available Ring
only once,
- requesting the virtio spec's language to be cleaned up

The problem is invisible on my HP Z400 workstation.
Fix the request submission by:
- building the only one descriptor chain supported by VirtioLib always at
the beginning of the descriptor table,
- ensuring the head descriptor of this chain is put on the Available Ring
only once,
- requesting the virtio spec's language to be cleaned up

OvmfPkg: VirtioFlush(): return the number of bytes written by the host
VirtioLib provides an API for simple, synchronous (request/response-style)
virtio communication. The guest driver builds one descriptor chain, link
for link, with VirtioPrepare() and VirtioAppendDesc(), then submits the
chain, and awaits the processing, with VirtioFlush().
The descriptor chain is always built at the beginning of the descriptor
area, with the head descriptor having descriptor index 0.
In order to submit the descriptor chain to the host, the guest always
pushes a new "available element" to the Available Ring, in genuine
queue-like fashion, with the new element referencing the head descriptor
(which always has index 0, see above).
In turn, after processing, the host always pushes a new "used element" to
the Used Ring, in genuine queue-like fashion, with the new element
referencing the head descriptor of the chain that was just processed. The
same element also reports the number of bytes that the host wrote,
consecutively across the host-writeable buffers that were linked by the
descriptors.
(See "OvmfPkg/VirtioNetDxe/TechNotes.txt" for a diagram about the
descriptor area and the rings.)
Because at most one descriptor chain can be in flight with VirtioLib at
any time,
- the Available Ring and the Used Ring proceed in lock-step,
- and the head descriptor that the new "available" and "used" elements can
ever reference has index 0.
Based on the above, we can modify VirtioFlush() to return the number of
bytes written by the host across the descriptor chain. The virtio-block
and virtio-scsi drivers don't care (they have other ways to parse the data
produced by the host), while the virtio-net driver doesn't use
VirtioFlush() at all (it employs VirtioLib only to set up its rings).
However, the virtio entropy device, to be covered in the upcoming
patches, reports the amount of randomness produced by the host only
through this quantity.
