Currently user cannot set the mac address and mtu of the vdpa device. This patchset enables users to set the mac address and mtu of the vdpa device once the device is created. If a vendor driver supports such configuration user can set it otherwise user gets unsupported error. vdpa mac address and mtu are device configuration layout fields. To keep interface generic enough for multiple types of vdpa devices, mac address and mtu setting is implemented as configuration layout config knobs. This enables to use similar config layout for other virtio devices. An example of query & set of config layout fields for vdpa_sim_net driver: Configuration layout fields are set after device is created. This enables user to change such fields at later point without destroying and recreating the device for new config. $ vdpa mgmtdev show vdpasim_net: supported_classes net Add the device: $ vdpa dev add name bar mgmtdev vdpasim_net Configure mac address and mtu: $ vdpa dev config set bar mac 00:11:22:33:44:55 mtu 9000 In above command only mac address or only mtu can also be set. View the config after setting: $ vdpa dev config show bar: mac 00:11:22:33:44:55 link up link_announce false mtu 9000 speed 0 duplex 0 Patch summary: Patch-1 fix kdoc style comments Patch-2 fix kdoc style comments Patch-3 introduced and use helpers for get/set config and features Patch-4 implement query device config layout Patch-5 enanble user to set mac and mtu in config space Patch-6 vdpa_sim_net implements get and set of config layout Patch-7 mlx5 vdpa driver use right dma device for PCI PF,VF,SF Patch-8 mlx5 vdpa driver uses right BAR offset for SF Patch-9 mlx5 vdpa driver migrates to user created vdpa device Patch-10 mlx5 vdpa driver supports user provided mac config Patch-11 mlx5 vdpa driver uses user provided mac during rx flow steering Patch-12 mlx5 vdpa driver excludes header length and fcs Patch-13 mlx5 vdpa driver fixes index restoration during suspend resume Patch-14 mlx5 vdpa driver fixes bit usage changelog: v1->v2: - new patches to fix kdoc comment to add new kdoc section - new patch to have synchronized access to features and config space - read whole net config layout instead of individual fields - added error extack for unmanaged vdpa device - fixed several endianness issues - introduced vdpa device ops for get config which is synchronized with other get/set features ops and config ops - fixed mtu range checking for max - using NLA_POLICY_ETH_ADDR - set config moved to device ops instead of mgmtdev ops - merged build and set to single routine - ensuring that user has NET_ADMIN capability for configuring network attributes - using updated interface and callbacks for get/set config - following new api for config get/set for mgmt tool in mlx5 vdpa driver - fixes for accessing right SF dma device and bar address - fix for mtu calculation - fix for bit access in features - fix for index restore with suspend/resume operation Eli Cohen (7): vdpa/mlx5: Use the correct dma device when registering memory vdpa/mlx5: Retrieve BAR address suitable any function vdpa/mlx5: Enable user to add/delete vdpa device vdpa/mlx5: Support configuration of MAC vdpa/mlx5: Forward only packets with allowed MAC address vdpa/mlx5: Fix suspend/resume index restoration vdpa/mlx5: Fix wrong use of bit numbers Parav Pandit (6): vdpa: Follow kdoc comment style vdpa: Follow kdoc comment style vdpa: Introduce and use vdpa device get,set config, features helpers vdpa: Introduce query of device config layout vdpa: Enable user to set mac and mtu of vdpa device vdpa_sim_net: Enable user to set mac address and mtu Si-Wei Liu (1): vdpa/mlx5: should exclude header length and fcs from mtu drivers/vdpa/mlx5/core/mlx5_vdpa.h | 4 + drivers/vdpa/mlx5/core/mr.c | 9 +- drivers/vdpa/mlx5/core/resources.c | 3 +- drivers/vdpa/mlx5/net/mlx5_vnet.c | 264 ++++++++++++++---- drivers/vdpa/vdpa.c | 383 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++- drivers/vdpa/vdpa_sim/vdpa_sim.c | 26 ++ drivers/vdpa/vdpa_sim/vdpa_sim.h | 4 + drivers/vdpa/vdpa_sim/vdpa_sim_net.c | 39 +-- drivers/vhost/vdpa.c | 6 +- include/linux/vdpa.h | 123 ++++++--- include/uapi/linux/vdpa.h | 12 + 11 files changed, 752 insertions(+), 121 deletions(-) -- 2.26.2 _______________________________________________ Virtualization mailing list Virtualization@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/virtualization
