[RFC PATCH v2 vfio 7/7] vfio/pds: Add Kconfig and documentation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Add Kconfig entries and pds_vfio.rst. Also, add an entry in the
MAINTAINERS file for this new driver.

It's not clear where documentation for vendor specific VFIO
drivers should live, so just re-use the current Pensando
ethernet location.

+==========================================================
+PCI VFIO driver for the Pensando(R) DSC adapter family
+==========================================================
+
+Pensando Linux VFIO PCI Device Driver
+Copyright(c) 2022 Pensando Systems, Inc
+
+Overview
+========
+
+The ``pds_vfio`` driver is both a PCI and auxiliary bus driver. The
+PCI driver supports Live Migration capable NVMe Virtual Function (VF)
+devices and the auxiliary driver is used to communicate with the
+``pds_core`` driver and hardware.
+
+Using the device
+================
+
+The pds_vfio device is enabled via multiple configuration steps and
+depends on the ``pds_core`` driver to create and enable SR-IOV Virtual
+Function devices.
+
+Shown below are the steps to bind the driver to a VF and also to the
+associated auxiliary device created by the ``pds_core`` driver. This
+example assumes the pds_core and pds_vfio modules are already
+loaded.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+  :name: example-setup-script
+
+  #!/bin/bash
+
+  PF_BUS="0000:60"
+  PF_BDF="0000:60:00.0"
+  VF_BDF="0000:60:00.1"
+
+  # Enable live migration VF auxiliary device(s)
+  devlink dev param set pci/$PF_BDF name enable_migration value true cmode runtime
+
+  # Prevent nvme driver from probing the NVMe VF device
+  echo 0 > /sys/class/pci_bus/$PF_BUS/device/$PF_BDF/sriov_drivers_autoprobe
+
+  # Create single VF for NVMe Live Migration via VFIO
+  echo 1 > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pds_core/$PF_BDF/sriov_numvfs
+
+  # Allow the VF to be bound to the pds_vfio driver
+  echo "pds_vfio" > /sys/class/pci_bus/$PF_BUS/device/$VF_BDF/driver_override
+
+  # Bind the VF to the pds_vfio driver
+  echo "$VF_BDF" > /sys/bus/pci/drivers/pds_vfio/bind
+
+After performing the steps above the pds_vfio driver's PCI probe should
+have been called, the pds_vfio driver's auxiliary probe should have
+been called, and a file in /dev/vfio/<iommu_group> should have been created.
+There will also be an entry in /sys/bus/auxiliary/device/pds_core.LM.<nn>
+for the VF's auxiliary device and the associated driver registered by the
+pds_vfio module will be at /sys/bus/auxiliary/drivers/pds_vfio.LM.
+
+
+Enabling the driver
+===================
+
+The driver is enabled via the standard kernel configuration system,
+using the make command::
+
+  make oldconfig/menuconfig/etc.
+
+The driver is located in the menu structure at:
+
+  -> Device Drivers
+    -> VFIO Non-Privileged userspace driver framework
+      -> VFIO support for PDS PCI devices
+
+Support
+=======
+
+For general Linux networking support, please use the netdev mailing
+list, which is monitored by Pensando personnel::
+
+  netdev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
+
+For more specific support needs, please use the Pensando driver support
+email::
