[PATCH] net/mlx5: add port representor support

[PATCH] net/mlx5: add port representor support

[Sean Zhang]

Add support for port_representor item, it will match on traffic
originated from representor port specified in the pattern. This item
is supported in FDB steering domain only (in the flow with transfer
attribute).

For example, below flow will redirect the destination of traffic from
port 1 to port 2.

testpmd> ... pattern eth / port_representor port_id is 1 / end actions
represented_port ethdev_port_id 2 / ...

To handle abovementioned item, tx queue matching is added in the driver,
and the flow will be expanded to number of the tx queues. If the spec of
port_representor is NULL, the flow will not be expanded and match on
traffic from any representor port.

Hi,

This patch might be missing the following part:

Also, the summary line reads like adding support for representors
in general. Perhaps it pays to reword it as:
add port representor item support

It's up to you, of course.

These "port 1" and "port 2" might read as "ethdev 1" and "ethdev 2",
while in reality the flow below asks to redirect traffic coming from
ethdev 1 to a switch port *represented by* ethdev 2.

That's why it's important to use concrete terms instead of just "port".

Though, I do not insist on rewording this.

It would be better to spell "Tx" with the letter "T" capitalised.

Same here.

[v2] net/mlx5: add port representor item support

[Sean Zhang]

Add support for port_representor item, it will match on traffic
originated from representor port specified in the pattern. This item
is supported in FDB steering domain only (in the flow with transfer
attribute).

For example, below flow will redirect the destination of traffic from
ethdev 1 to ethdev 2.

testpmd> ... pattern eth / port_representor port_id is 1 / end actions
represented_port ethdev_port_id 2 / ...

To handle abovementioned item, Tx queue matching is added in the driver,
and the flow will be expanded to number of the Tx queues. If the spec of
port_representor is NULL, the flow will not be expanded and match on
traffic from any representor port.

[v3] net/mlx5: add port representor item support

[Sean Zhang]

Add support for port_representor item, it will match on traffic
originated from representor port specified in the pattern. This item
is supported in FDB steering domain only (in the flow with transfer
attribute).

For example, below flow will redirect the destination of traffic from
ethdev 1 to ethdev 2.

testpmd> ... pattern eth / port_representor port_id is 1 / end actions
represented_port ethdev_port_id 2 / ...

To handle abovementioned item, Tx queue matching is added in the driver,
and the flow will be expanded to number of the Tx queues. If the spec of
port_representor is NULL, the flow will not be expanded and match on
traffic from any representor port.

Re: [PATCH] net/mlx5: add port representor support

[Thomas Monjalon]

The title is confusing.
Port representor is already supported in mlx5.
It seems you are adding support for matching on port representor ID, right?
