net/devlink: Add E-Switch encapsulation control

2017-04-22T17:26:37Z

This is an e-switch global knob to enable HW support for applying encapsulation/decapsulation to VF traffic as part of SRIOV e-switch offloading. The actual encap/decap is carried out (along with the matching and other actions) per offloaded e-switch rules, e.g as done when offloading the TC tunnel key action.

devlink: Support for pipeline debug (dpipe)

2017-03-29T00:11:54Z

The pipeline debug is used to export the pipeline abstractions for the main objects - tables, headers and entries. The only support for set is for changing the counter parameter on specific table. The basic structures: Header - can represent a real protocol header information or internal metadata. Generic protocol headers like IPv4 can be shared between drivers. Each driver can add local headers. Field - part of a header. Can represent protocol field or specific ASIC metadata field. Hardware special metadata fields can be mapped to different resources, for example switch ASIC ports can have internal number which from the systems point of view is mapped to netdeivce ifindex. Match - represent specific match rule. Can describe match on specific field or header. The header index should be specified as well in order to support several header instances of the same type (tunneling). Action - represents specific action rule. Actions can describe operations on specific field values for example like set, increment, etc. And header operation like add and delete. Value - represents value which can be associated with specific match or action. Table - represents a hardware block which can be described with match/ action behavior. The match/action can be done on the packets data or on the internal metadata that it gathered along the packets traversal throw the pipeline which is vendor specific and should be exported in order to provide understanding of ASICs behavior. Entry - represents single record in a specific table. The entry is identified by specific combination of values for match/action. Prior to accessing the tables/entries the drivers provide the header/ field data base which is used by driver to user-space. The data base is split between the shared headers and unique headers.

devlink: fix the name of eswitch commands

2017-02-10T19:43:00Z

The eswitch_[gs]et command is supposed to be similar to port_[gs]et command - for multiple eswitch attributes. However, when it was introduced by 08f4b5918b2d ("net/devlink: Add E-Switch mode control") it was wrongly named with the word "mode" in it. So fix this now, make the oririnal enum value existing but obsolete. Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

devlink: Add E-Switch inline mode control

2016-11-24T21:01:14Z

Some HWs need the VF driver to put part of the packet headers on the TX descriptor so the e-switch can do proper matching and steering. The supported modes: none, link, network, transport. Signed-off-by: Roi Dayan Reviewed-by: Or Gerlitz Signed-off-by: Saeed Mahameed Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net/devlink: Add E-Switch mode control

2016-07-02T18:40:40Z

Add the commands to set and show the mode of SRIOV E-Switch, two modes are supported: * legacy: operating in the "old" L2 based mode (DMAC --> VF vport) * switchdev: the E-Switch is referred to as whitebox switch configured using standard tools such as tc, bridge, openvswitch etc. To allow working with the tools, for each VF, a VF representor netdevice is created by the E-Switch manager vendor device driver instance (e.g PF).

devlink: implement shared buffer occupancy monitoring interface

2016-04-14T20:22:03Z

User needs to monitor shared buffer occupancy. For that, he issues a snapshot command in order to instruct hardware to catch current and maximal occupancy values, and clear command in order to clear the historical maximal values. Also port-pool and tc-pool-bind command response messages are extended to carry occupancy values. Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko Reviewed-by: Ido Schimmel Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

devlink: add shared buffer configuration

2016-04-14T20:22:03Z

Define userspace API and drivers API for configuration of shared buffers. Four basic objects are defined: shared buffer - attributes are size, number of pools and TCs pool - chunk of sharedbuffer definition, it has some size and either static or dynamic threshold port pool threshold - to set per-port threshold for each pool port tc threshold bind - to bind port and TC to specified pool with threshold.

Introduce devlink infrastructure

2016-03-01T21:07:29Z

Introduce devlink infrastructure for drivers to register and expose to userspace via generic Netlink interface. There are two basic objects defined: devlink - one instance for every "parent device", for example switch ASIC devlink port - one instance for every physical port of the device. This initial portion implements basic get/dump of objects to userspace. Also, port splitter and port type setting is implemented. Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
