[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/2] net/octeontx2: fix ptp performance issue

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/2] net/octeontx2: fix ptp performance issue

[Harman Kalra]

A huge drop in per core MPPS value was observed when PTP stack is
enabled. The reason behind the bottleneck is HW serialises the
transfer of all SQEs, which seeks timestamp capture, on the same
send DMA path. Hence only those packets which requires timestamp
capture should set SETTSTAMP in send mem alg.
With this patch timestamping would be done only for those packets
with PKT_TX_IEEE1588_TMST set.

Fixes: fb3ae0951abd ("net/octeontx2: support Tx")
Fixes: 8980a153006b ("event/octeontx2: support PTP for SSO")

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 2/2] net/octeontx2: support read clock API

[Harman Kalra]

This patch implements read clock api whose purpose is to return
raw clock ticks. Using this API real time ticks spent in
processing a packet can be known:
    <read_clock val at any time> - mbuf->timestamp

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 1/2] net/octeontx2: fix ptp performance issue

[Harman Kalra]

A huge drop in per core MPPS value was observed when PTP stack is
enabled. The reason behind the bottleneck is HW serialises the
transfer of all SQEs, which seeks timestamp capture, on the same
send DMA path. Hence only those packets which requires timestamp
capture should set SETTSTAMP in send mem alg.
With this patch timestamping would be done only for those packets
with PKT_TX_IEEE1588_TMST set.

Fixes: fb3ae0951abd ("net/octeontx2: support Tx")
Fixes: 8980a153006b ("event/octeontx2: support PTP for SSO")

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 2/2] net/octeontx2: support read clock API

[Harman Kalra]

This patch implements read clock api whose purpose is to return
raw clock ticks. Using this API real time ticks spent in
processing a packet can be known:
    <read_clock val at any time> - mbuf->timestamp

Calling mbox for reading raw clock ticks in fastpath is very
expensive so its value is derived from time stamp counter(tsc)
using freq multipler (ratio of raw clock ticks and tsc) and clock
delta (by how much tsc is lagging from raw clock value).

V2:
* More detailed commit message
* changed rdtsc to tsc (timestamp counter)
* Initialized a variable to zero only when needed
* changed done label to fail

Move as much changes to otx2_ptp.c, rest it looks good to me.

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 1/2] net/octeontx2: fix ptp performance issue

[Harman Kalra]

A huge drop in per core MPPS value was observed when PTP stack is
enabled. The reason behind the bottleneck is HW serialises the
transfer of all SQEs, which seeks timestamp capture, on the same
send DMA path. Hence only those packets which requires timestamp
capture should set SETTSTAMP in send mem alg.
With this patch timestamping would be done only for those packets
with PKT_TX_IEEE1588_TMST set.

Fixes: fb3ae0951abd ("net/octeontx2: support Tx")
Fixes: 8980a153006b ("event/octeontx2: support PTP for SSO")

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3 2/2] net/octeontx2: support read clock API

[Harman Kalra]

This patch implements read clock api whose purpose is to return
raw clock ticks. Using this API real time ticks spent in
processing a packet can be known:
    <read_clock val at any time> - mbuf->timestamp

Calling mbox for reading raw clock ticks in fastpath is very
expensive so its value is derived from time stamp counter(tsc)
using freq multipler (ratio of raw clock ticks and tsc) and clock
delta (by how much tsc is lagging from raw clock value).

V3:
* Moved most implementation in otx2_ptp.c keeping
otx2_ethdev.c cleaner.
* Removed ptp enable check in read_clock op fastpath.

V2:
* More detailed commit message
* changed rdtsc to tsc (timestamp counter)
* Initialized a variable to zero only when needed
* changed done label to fail

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 1/2] net/octeontx2: fix ptp performance issue

[Harman Kalra]

A huge drop in per core MPPS value was observed when PTP stack is
enabled. The reason behind the bottleneck is HW serialises the
transfer of all SQEs, which seeks timestamp capture, on the same
send DMA path. Hence only those packets which requires timestamp
capture should set SETTSTAMP in send mem alg.
With this patch timestamping would be done only for those packets
with PKT_TX_IEEE1588_TMST set.

Fixes: fb3ae0951abd ("net/octeontx2: support Tx")
Fixes: 8980a153006b ("event/octeontx2: support PTP for SSO")

[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 1/2] net/octeontx2: fix ptp performance issue

[Harman Kalra]

A huge drop in per core MPPS value was observed when PTP stack is
enabled. The reason behind the bottleneck is HW serialises the
transfer of all SQEs, which seeks timestamp capture, on the same
send DMA path. Hence only those packets which requires timestamp
capture should set SETTSTAMP in send mem alg.
With this patch timestamping would be done only for those packets
with PKT_TX_IEEE1588_TMST set.

Fixes: fb3ae0951abd ("net/octeontx2: support Tx")
Fixes: 8980a153006b ("event/octeontx2: support PTP for SSO")
