iavf: rte_eth_stats_get() fails upon upgrade to 23.07.0

iavf: rte_eth_stats_get() fails upon upgrade to 23.07.0

[Isaac Boukris]

Hello,

This works fine with 23.03.0 but starting from 23.07.0 up to master it
fails as follows.

Initialization is ok:
EAL: Probe PCI driver: net_iavf (8086:154c) device: 0000:09:00.0 (socket -1)
iavf_set_rx_function(): request RXDID[1] in Queue[0] is legacy, set
rx_pkt_burst as legacy for all queues

telemetry.py /ethdev/link_status,0 | jq
  {
    "/ethdev/link_status": {
      "status": "UP",
      "speed": 40000,
      "duplex": "full-duplex"
    }
  }

But the following command hang and fail:
telemetry.py /ethdev/stats,0 | jq
telemetry.py /ethdev/xstats,0 | jq

On the logs I see:
iavf_execute_vf_cmd(): No response for cmd 15
iavf_query_stats(): fail to execute command OP_GET_STATS
iavf_dev_stats_get(): Get statistics failed

Any ideas?

Thanks!

I did some git bisect and found the commit below, help appreciated!

    net/iavf: add Tx AVX2 offload path

    Add a specific path for TX AVX2.
    In this path, support the HW offload features, like,
    checksum insertion, VLAN insertion.
    This path is chosen automatically according to the
    configuration.

    'inline' is used, then the duplicate code is generated
    by the compiler.

Notte that I was able to workaround it by forcing the old logic with:

diff --git a/drivers/net/iavf/iavf_rxtx.c b/drivers/net/iavf/iavf_rxtx.c

FYI, I was able to fix this and drop my patch by upgrading the
firmware on the host machine.

From:
kernel: i40e 0000:37:00.0: fw 8.5.67516 api 1.15 nvm 8.50 0x8000b6d7
1.3082.0 [8086:1583] [8086:0002]

To:
kernel: i40e 0000:37:00.0: fw 9.150.77492 api 1.15 nvm 9.50 0x8000f146
1.3597.0 [8086:1583] [8086:0002]

Perhaps we should have a compatibility matrix on the iavf doc page,
like the one we have on the i40e PF one.
