[PATCH rdma-core 0/2] Report software parsing capabilities through mlx5 DV

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

 



This patch set from Noa is the supplementary part of the kernel series that was
accepted upstream into 4.14, it reports software parsing capabilities through
the mlx5 DV API.

Software parsing (SWP) is a feature that can be used to instruct the device to
stop using its internal parser and to parse packets on the transmit path
according to offsets set for each packet. Through this feature, the device
allows the handling of checksum and LSO by the hardware according to the
location of IP and TCP/UDP headers.

Patches:
#1: Report various SW parsing capabilities through mlx5 direct verbs interface.
#2: Update mlx5dv_query_device man page to include SWP information.
