Subject: [PATCH v3 8/8] udp: Pass iov_tail to udp_update_hdr4()/udp_update_hdr6()
Date: Mon, 16 Mar 2026 19:07:21 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260316180721.2230640-9-lvivier@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260316180721.2230640-1-lvivier@redhat.com>

Change udp_update_hdr4() and udp_update_hdr6() to take an iov_tail
covering the full L3 frame (IP header + UDP header + data), instead of
separate IP header, udp_payload_t, and data-length parameters.  The
functions now use with_header() and IOV_DROP_HEADER() to access the IP
and UDP headers directly from the iov_tail, and derive sizes via
iov_tail_size() rather than an explicit length argument.

This decouples the header update functions from the udp_payload_t memory
layout, which assumes all headers and data sit in a single contiguous
buffer.  The vhost-user path uses virtqueue-provided scatter-gather
buffers where this assumption does not hold; passing an iov_tail lets
both the tap path and the vhost-user path share the same functions
without layout-specific helpers.

On the vhost-user side, udp_vu_prepare() likewise switches to
with_header() for the Ethernet header, and its caller now drops the
vnet header before calling udp_vu_prepare() instead of having the
function deal with it internally.
