My understanding is that this is not allowed any more since the introduction of max_vqp attribute. Noted, currently we don't have a way for vendor driver to report the default value for mqx_vqp, if not otherwise specified in the CLI. Without getting the default value reported in 'vdpa mgmtdev show' level, it'd just confuse mgmt software even more.On Tue, Oct 25, 2022 at 3:14 AM Si-Wei Liu <si-wei.liu@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote:On 10/24/2022 1:40 AM, Jason Wang wrote:On Sat, Oct 22, 2022 at 7:49 AM Si-Wei Liu <si-wei.liu@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote:Live migration of vdpa would typically require re-instate vdpa device with an idential set of configs on the destination node, same way as how source node created the device in the first place. In order to save orchestration software from memorizing and keeping track of vdpa config, it will be helpful if the vdpa tool provides the aids for exporting the initial configs as-is, the way how vdpa device was created. The "vdpa dev show" command seems to be the right vehicle for that. It is unlike the "vdpa dev config show" command output which usually goes with the live value in the device config space, and is not quite reliable subject to the dynamics of feature negotiation or possible change by the driver to the config space.

But I think we are talking about something different that is out of the spec here, what if: vDPA inherit _F_MQ but mqx_vqp is not provisioned via netlink. Or is it not allowed?
That was the situation when there's no max_vqp attribute support from vdpa netlink API level. I think now every driver honors the vdpa core disposition to get a single queue pair if max_vqp config is missing. And the mlx5_vdpa driver with 8 queue pairs in the wild days is just irrelevant to be manageable by mgmt software, regardless of live migration.At least some time in the past, mlx5 were enabled with MQ with 8 queue pairs by default.
I am not sure I understand the ask here. Noted the QEMU argument has to offer host_mtu=X with the maximum MTU value for guest to use (and applied as the initial MTU config during virtio-net probing for Linux driver), and the way to get the parent device MTU and whether that's relevant to vdpa device's MTU is very vendor specific. I think we would need new attribute(s) in the mgmtdev level to support what you want here?And the device_features if inherited is displayed at 'vdpa dev config show' output. Can you remind me of a good example for inherited value that we may want to show here?Some other cases: 1) MTU: there should be something that the device needs to report if _F_MTU is negotiated even if it is not provisioned from netlink.
Not the way I expected it, but with Lingshan's series to expose fields out of FEATURES_OK, the device_features is now reported through 'vdpa dev config show' regardless being specified or not, if I am not mistaken?2) device_features: if device_features is not provisioned, we should still report it via netlink here
Currently we export the config attributes upon vdpa creation under the "initial_config" key. If we want to expose more default values inherited from mgmtdev, I think we can wrap up these default values under another key "inherited_config" to display in 'vdpa dev show' output. Does it fit what you have in mind?
Yes, as I said earlier, since the device_features attr getting added to the 'vdpa dev config show' command, this divergence started to complicate mgmt software already.or do you mean the mgmt can assume it should be the same as mgmtdev. Anyhow if we don't show device_features if it is not provisioned, it will complicate the mgmt software.
