v4: * Add explicit reserved padding field to struct af_vsockmon_hdr and drop __attribute__((packed)) [Michael, DaveM] * Call synchronize_net() before module_put() [Michael]
v3: * Hook virtio_transport.c (guest driver), not just drivers/vhost/vsock.c (host driver) * Fix DEFAULT_MTU macro definition [Zhu Yanjun] * Rename af_vsockmon_hdr->t field ->transport for clarity * Update .ndo_get_stats64() return type since it has changed * Include missing <linux/module.h> header in af_vsock_tap.c This is a continuation of Gerard Garcia's work on the vsockmon packet capture interface for AF_VSOCK. Packet capture is an essential feature for network communication. Gerard began addressing this feature gap in his Google Summer of Code 2016 project. I have cleaned up, rebased, and retested the v2 series he posted previously. The design follows the nlmon packet capture interface closely. This is because vsock has the same problem as netlink: there is no netdev on which packets can be captured. The nlmon driver is a synthetic netdev purely for the purpose of enabling packet capture. We follow the same approach here with vsockmon. See include/uapi/linux/vsockmon.h in this series for details on the packet layout. How to try it: 1. Build tcpdump with vsockmon patches: $ git clone -b vsock https://github.com/stefanha/libpcap $ (cd libcap && ./configure && make) $ git clone -b vsock https://github.com/stefanha/tcpdump $ (cd tcpdump && ./configure && make) 2. Build nc-vsock (a netcat-like tool): $ git clone https://github.com/stefanha/nc-vsock $ (cd nc-vsock && make) 3. Launch a virtual machine: # modprobe vhost_vsock # qemu-system-x86_64 -M accel=kvm -m 1024 -cpu host \ -drive if=virtio,file=test.img,format=raw \ -device vhost-vsock-pci,guest-cid=3 (Assumes guest is running a kernel with this patch) 4. Capture AF_VSOCK traffic in guest and/or host: # modprobe vsockmon # ip link add type vsockmon # ip link set vsockmon0 up # tcpdump -i vsockmon0 -vvv 5. Communicate!
