(After playing around with virPCIDeviceGetVirtualFunctionInfo() for a few days, I came to a point where I decided it was best to leave its API as it is (taking a path to the device in sysfs rather than a virPCIDeviceAddress as the first argument). And *THEN* I took a close look at virNetDevParseVfStats() and finally realized that it is nearly identical to virNetDevParseVfConfig(), and that virNetDevVFInterfaceStats() is just a wrapper around the same code that is in VirNetDevGetVfConfig() (just searching through all the host interfaces looking for a VF with matching MAC address.

So I've further changed my mind about the form this patch should take. Instead of "almost duplicating" so much code, what about this:


0) the changes you've made to the ifla_vf_policy struct are correct and should remain.


1) Instead of duplicating all that code from virNetDevParseVfConfig() into a new function (virNetDevParseVfStats()), just expand virNetDevParseVfConfig() itself with a new arg for stats, and add in the small bit of new code that retrieves the stats *iff the stats arg is non-NULL. This way it can still be used for its original purpose, but also for the new purpose, leaving us less "almost identical" code to maintain:


static int

virNetDevParseVfConfig(struct nlattr **tb, int32_t vf,

                       virMacAddrPtr mac,

                       int *vlanid,

                       virDomainInterfaceStatsPtr stats) <=== new


...

        if (vlanid && tb[IFLA_VF_VLAN]) {

            [...]

        }

        /* new code starts here */

        if (stats && tb[IFLA_VF_STATS] && tb[IFLA_VF_MAC]) {

            vf_mac = RTA_DATA(tb_vf[IFLA_VF_MAC]);

            if (vf_mac && vf_mac->vf == vf) {

                ret = nla_parse_nested(stb, IFLA_VF_STATS_MAX, t[IFLA_VF_STATS], ifla_vfstats_policy);
                if (ret < 0) {
                    virReportError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, "%s", _("error parsing IFLA_VF_STATS"));

                    return -1;

                }

                stats->rx_bytes = nla_get_u64(stb[IFLA_VF_STATS_RX_BYTES]);                 stats->tx_bytes = nla_get_u64(stb[IFLA_VF_STATS_TX_BYTES]);                 stats->rx_packets = nla_get_u64(stb[IFLA_VF_STATS_RX_PACKETS]);                 stats->tx_packets = nla_get_u64(stb[IFLA_VF_STATS_TX_PACKETS]);
            }


(bonus points for a separate preliminary patch to rename virNetDevParseVfConfig() to virNetDevParseVFInfo())

2) virNetDevVFInterfaceStats() should take the PCI address of the VF *on the host* as its first argument, rather than the MAC address. If will then use that to determine the netdev name of the PF, and the VF# of the VF, using the pfName to call virNetlinkDumpLink() to get the vfinfo_list for the correct PF, and then the vf# when calling virNetDevParseVfConfig() to get the stats from the correct vfinfo entry in the list, something like this:

    int
    virNetDevVFInterfaceStats(virPCIDeviceAddressPtr vfAddr,
                              virDomainInterfaceStatsPtr stats)
    {
    g_autofree char *vfSysFsPath = NULL;
    g_autofree char *pfName = NULL;
    int vf = -1;

    if (virPCIDeviceAddressGetSysfsFile(vfAddr, &vfSysfsPath) < 0)
        return -1;

    if (!virPCIIsVirtualFunction(vfSysfsPath)) {
virReportError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR, _("'%s' is not a VF device"), vfSysfsPath);
       return -1;
    }

    if (virPCIGetVirtualFunctionInfo(vsSysfsPath, -1, &pfName, &vf) < 0)
        return -1;

    /* we know the pfname and vf# - use that to retrieve the correct vfinfo */

    if (virNetlinkDumpLink(pfname, -1, &nlData, tb, 0, 0) < 0)
        return -1;

    return virNetDevParseVfConfig(tb, vf, NULL, NULL, stats);
    }

... or something like that.


3) When calling virNetDevVFInterfaceStats() (from qemuDomainInterfaceStats()), send it the PCI address of the device like this:

    [...]

    } else if (virDomainNetGetActualType(net) == VIR_DOMAIN_NET_TYPE_HOSTDEV) {

        virDomainHostdevDef const *hostdev = virDomainNetGetActualHostdev(net);

        if (!hostdev) {

            /* some things shouldn't happen. This *definitely* should never ever be possible */

            virReportError(VIR_ERR_INTERNAL_ERROR,

                           "%s", _("hostdev interface missing hostdev data"));

            goto cleanup;

         }

         if virNetDevVFInterfaceStats(&hostdev->source.subsys.u.pci.addr, stats) < 0)

            goto cleanup;

         ...


Does all of that make sense? (Hopefully I haven't skipped over something crucial).

Collect PCI passthrough net device stats from kernel by netlink

Currently, libvirt can not get PCI passthrough net device stats,
run command:
  #virsh domifstat instance --interface=52:54:00:2d:b2:35
  error: Failed to get interface stats instance 52:54:00:2d:b2:35
  error: internal error: Interface name not provided

The PCI device(usually SR-IOV virtual function device) is detached
while it's used in PCI passthrough mode. And we can not parse this
device from /proc/net/dev any more.

In this patch, libvirt check net device is VF of not firstly, then
query virNetDevVFInterfaceStats(new API).
virNetDevVFInterfaceStats parses VFs info of all PFs, compares MAC
address until the two MAC addresses match.
'#ip -s link show' can get the same result. Instead of parsing the
output result, implement this feature by libnl API.

Notice that this feature deponds on driver of PF.
Test on Mellanox ConnectX-4 Lx, it works well.
Also test on Intel Corporation 82599ES, it works, but only get 0.
(ip-link command get the same result).

IFLA_VF_STATS is supported since Linux-4.2, suggested by Laine,
just using defined(__linux__) && WITH_LIBNL is enough.

Sorry, I hate to bring this up only on v3 of the patches (In the initial version I hadn't looked at implementation details, only at build CI, and hadn't gotten back to look at the later versions before other people commented on also-macro-level issues), but we shouldn't be determining which VF stats of which PF to report by scanning through all the PFs until we find a VF with a matching MAC address. Aside from being really inefficient (you shouldn't need to get a dump of all interfaces, just of the one interface you're interested in), also the MAC address of a device isn't unique (although it usually is), so you can't be guaranteed this is the correct VF.

Instead we need to start with the PCI address in the virDomainHostdevDef associated with the VF (which can be retrieved with virDomainNetDefActualHostdev(net)) and then learn the name of the PF, and what the VF# is for this VF using virPCIGetVirtualFunctionInfo(), (*or even better* - that function refactored to be more like virHostdevNetDevice() - it provides exactly what you need, but is just located in a file (virhostdev.c) that shouldn't be referenced from virnetdev.c).

Once we know the PF device name and which VF, we can get the NetlinkDump *only* for that device, and then directly grab the details from the particular VFINFO in the list, rather than relying on a match of the (unreliable) MAC address.

Since I already have an idea of the change I'd like to see in virPCIGetVirtualFunctionInfo(), let me refactor that function (and a few surrounding) so that they're more generally useful, and I'll Cc the patch for it to you so that you can use the updated function. I'll try to do it in the next couple days.
