From: Parav Pandit <parav@xxxxxxxxxx> Hi Dave, Jakub, Jason, This series form Parav was the theme of this mlx5 release cycle, we've been waiting anxiously for the auxbus infrastructure to make it into the kernel, and now as the auxbus is in and all the stars are aligned, I can finally submit this V2 of the devlink and mlx5 subfunction support. Subfunctions came to solve the scaling issue of virtualization and switchdev environments, where SRIOV failed to deliver and users ran out of VFs very quickly as SRIOV demands huge amount of physical resources in both of the servers and the NIC. Subfunction provide the same functionality as SRIOV but in a very lightweight manner, please see the thorough and detailed documentation from Parav below, in the commit messages and the Networking documentation patches at the end of this series. Sending V2 as a continuation to V1 that was sent Last month [0], Parav has provided full change-log in the commit message of each patch. [0] https://lore.kernel.org/linux-rdma/20201112192424.2742-1-parav@xxxxxxxxxx/ Parav Pandit Says: ================= This patchset introduces support for mlx5 subfunction (SF). A subfunction is a lightweight function that has a parent PCI function on which it is deployed. mlx5 subfunction has its own function capabilities and its own resources. This means a subfunction has its own dedicated queues(txq, rxq, cq, eq). These queues are neither shared nor stealed from the parent PCI function. When subfunction is RDMA capable, it has its own QP1, GID table and rdma resources neither shared nor stealed from the parent PCI function. A subfunction has dedicated window in PCI BAR space that is not shared with ther other subfunctions or parent PCI function. This ensures that all class devices of the subfunction accesses only assigned PCI BAR space. A Subfunction supports eswitch representation through which it supports tc offloads. User must configure eswitch to send/receive packets from/to subfunction port. Subfunctions share PCI level resources such as PCI MSI-X IRQs with their other subfunctions and/or with its parent PCI function. Patch summary: -------------- Patch 1 to 4 prepares devlink patch 5 to 7 mlx5 adds SF device support Patch 8 to 11 mlx5 adds SF devlink port support Patch 12 and 14 adds documentation Patch-1 prepares code to handle multiple port function attributes Patch-2 introduces devlink pcisf port flavour similar to pcipf and pcivf Patch-3 adds port add and delete driver callbacks Patch-4 adds port function state get and set callbacks Patch-5 mlx5 vhca event notifier support to distribute subfunction state change notification Patch-6 adds SF auxiliary device Patch-7 adds SF auxiliary driver Patch-8 prepares eswitch to handler SF vport Patch-9 adds eswitch helpers to add/remove SF vport Patch-10 implements devlink port add/del callbacks Patch-11 implements devlink port function get/set callbacks Patch-12 to 14 adds documentation Patch-12 added mlx5 port function documentation Patch-13 adds subfunction documentation Patch-14 adds mlx5 subfunction documentation Subfunction support is discussed in detail in RFC [1] and [2]. RFC [1] and extension [2] describes requirements, design and proposed plumbing using devlink, auxiliary bus and sysfs for systemd/udev support. Functionality of this patchset is best explained using real examples further below. overview: -------- A subfunction can be created and deleted by a user using devlink port add/delete interface. A subfunction can be configured using devlink port function attribute before its activated. When a subfunction is activated, it results in an auxiliary device on the host PCI device where it is deployed. A driver binds to the auxiliary device that further creates supported class devices. example subfunction usage sequence: ----------------------------------- Change device to switchdev mode: $ devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:06:00.0 mode switchdev Add a devlink port of subfunction flaovur: $ devlink port add pci/0000:06:00.0 flavour pcisf pfnum 0 sfnum 88 Configure mac address of the port function: $ devlink port function set ens2f0npf0sf88 hw_addr 00:00:00:00:88:88 Now activate the function: $ devlink port function set ens2f0npf0sf88 state active Now use the auxiliary device and class devices: $ devlink dev show pci/0000:06:00.0 auxiliary/mlx5_core.sf.4 $ ip link show 127: ens2f0np0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether 24:8a:07:b3:d1:12 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff altname enp6s0f0np0 129: p0sf88: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000 link/ether 00:00:00:00:88:88 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff $ rdma dev show 43: rdmap6s0f0: node_type ca fw 16.29.0550 node_guid 248a:0703:00b3:d112 sys_image_guid 248a:0703:00b3:d112 44: mlx5_0: node_type ca fw 16.29.0550 node_guid 0000:00ff:fe00:8888 sys_image_guid 248a:0703:00b3:d112 After use inactivate the function: $ devlink port function set ens2f0npf0sf88 state inactive Now delete the subfunction port: $ devlink port del ens2f0npf0sf88 [1] https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20200519092258.GF4655@nanopsycho/ [2] https://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=158555928517777&w=2 ================= --- Changelog: v1->v2: -
