Each port representor device represents a single VF and is associated with it's parent physical function (PF) PMD which provides the back-end hooks for the representor device ops and defines the control domain to which that port belongs. This allows to use existing DPDK APIs to monitor and control the port without the need to create and maintain VF specific APIs. +-----------------------------+ +---------------+ +---------------+ | Control Plane | | Data Plane | | Data Plane | | Application | | Application | | Application | +-----------------------------+ +---------------+ +---------------+ | eth dev api | | eth dev api | | eth dev api | +-----------------------------+ +---------------+ +---------------+ +-------+ +-------+ +-------+ +---------------+ +---------------+ | PF0 | | Port | | Port | | VF0 PMD | | VF0 PMD | | PMD <--+ Rep 0 | | Rep 1 | +---------------+ +------+--------+ | | | PMD | | PMD | | +---+--^+ +-------+ +-+-----+ | | | | | | | +----------------+ | | | | | | | | +--------------------------------+ | | | HW (logical view) | | | | --+------+ +-------+ +---+---+ | | | | PF | | VF0 | | VF1 | | | | | | | | | +----------------------------+ | +--------+ +-------+ +-------+ | | +----------------------------+ | | | VEB | | | +----------------------------+ | | +--------+ | | | Port | | | | 0 | | | +--------+ | +--------------------------------+ The figure above shows a deployment where the PF is bound to a DPDK control plane application which uses representor ports to manage the configuration and monitoring of it's VF ports. Each virtual function is represented in the application by a representor port PMD which enables control of the corresponding VF through eth dev APIs on the representor PMD such as: - void rte_eth_promiscuous_enable(uint8_t port_id); - void rte_eth_promiscuous_disable(uint8_t port_id); - void rte_eth_allmulticast_enable(uint8_t port_id); - void rte_eth_allmulticast_disable(uint8_t port_id); - int rte_eth_dev_mac_addr_add(uint8_t port, struct ether_addr *mac_addr, uint32_t pool); - int rte_eth_dev_set_vlan_offload(uint8_t port_id, int offload_mask); as well as monitoring through API's like - void rte_eth_link_get(uint8_t port_id, struct rte_eth_link *link); - int rte_eth_stats_get(uint8_t port_id, struct rte_eth_stats *stats); The port representor infrastructure is enabled through a single common, device independent, virtual PMD whos context is initialized and enabled through a broker instance running within the context of the physical function device driver. +-------------------------+ +-------------------------+ | rte_ethdev | | rte_ethdev | +-------------------------+ +-------------------------+ | Physical Function PMD | | Port Reperesentor PMD | | +-------------+ | | +---------+ +---------+ | | | Representor | | | | dev_data| | dev_ops | | | | Broker | | | +----+----+ +----+----+ | | | +---------+ | | +------|-----------|------+ | | | VF Port | | | | | | | | Context +------------------+ | | | +---------+ | | | | | +---------+ | | | | | | Handler +------------------------------+ | | | Ops | | | | | +---------+ | | | +-------------+ | +-------------------------+ Creation of representor ports can be achieved either through the --vdev EAL option or through the rte_vdev_init() API. Each port representor requires the BDF of it's parent PF and the Virtual Function ID of the port which the representor will support. During initialization of the representor PMD, it calls the broker API to register itself with the PF PMD and to get it's context configured which includes the setting up of it's context and ops function handlers. As the port representor model is based around the paradigm of using standard port based APIs, it will allow future expansion of functionality without the need to add new APIs. For example it should be possible to support configuration of egress QoS parameters using existing TM APIs by extending the port representor PMD/broker infrastructure. Changes in v2: Rebased to DPDK 17.11 Changes in v3: * Removed RTE_ETH_DEV_REPRESENTOR_PORT define * Removed switch_domain from struct rte_eth_dev_info (to be reintroduced seperately when required). * Port Representor PMD functionality merged into main library * Removed functions from .map file that are not for use by applications * Some minor bugfixes (uninitalised variables & NULL terminators) * Use of SPDX licence headers in new files * Seperate headers for PMD and application * SPDX-License-Identifier in new files * Added test-pmd representor add/del commands Remy Horton (5): lib: add Port Representor library eal: add Port Representor command-line option drivers/net/i40e: add Port Representor functionality drivers/net/ixgbe: add Port Representor functionality app/test-pmd: add Port Representor commands app/test-pmd/cmdline.c | 88 ++++ config/common_base | 5 + drivers/net/i40e/Makefile | 1 + drivers/net/i40e/i40e_ethdev.c | 16 + drivers/net/i40e/i40e_ethdev.h | 1 + drivers/net/i40e/i40e_prep_ops.c | 495 +++++++++++++++++++++ drivers/net/i40e/i40e_prep_ops.h | 15 + drivers/net/i40e/rte_pmd_i40e.c | 47 ++ drivers/net/i40e/rte_pmd_i40e.h | 18 + drivers/net/ixgbe/Makefile | 1 + drivers/net/ixgbe/ixgbe_ethdev.c | 22 +- drivers/net/ixgbe/ixgbe_ethdev.h | 5 + drivers/net/ixgbe/ixgbe_prep_ops.c | 259 +++++++++++ drivers/net/ixgbe/ixgbe_prep_ops.h | 15 + lib/Makefile | 3 + lib/librte_eal/bsdapp/eal/eal.c | 6 + lib/librte_eal/common/eal_common_options.c | 1 + lib/librte_eal/common/eal_internal_cfg.h | 2 + lib/librte_eal/common/eal_options.h | 2 + lib/librte_eal/common/include/rte_eal.h | 8 + lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/eal/eal.c | 9 + lib/librte_representor/Makefile | 26 ++ lib/librte_representor/rte_port_representor.c | 326 ++++++++++++++ lib/librte_representor/rte_port_representor.h | 60 +++ .../rte_port_representor_driver.h | 138 ++++++ .../rte_port_representor_version.map | 8 + mk/rte.app.mk | 1 + 27 files changed, 1577 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) create mode 100644 drivers/net/i40e/i40e_prep_ops.c create mode 100644 drivers/net/i40e/i40e_prep_ops.h create mode 100644 drivers/net/ixgbe/ixgbe_prep_ops.c create mode 100644 drivers/net/ixgbe/ixgbe_prep_ops.h create mode 100644 lib/librte_representor/Makefile create mode 100644 lib/librte_representor/rte_port_representor.c create mode 100644 lib/librte_representor/rte_port_representor.h create mode 100644 lib/librte_representor/rte_port_representor_driver.h create mode 100644 lib/librte_representor/rte_port_representor_version.map -- 2.9.5
