Subject: [dpdk-dev] [dpdk=-dev][PATCH v8 0/9] switching devices representation
Date: Thu, 26 Apr 2018 11:40:56 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180426104105.18342-1-declan.doherty@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180416130605.6509-1-declan.doherty@intel.com>
This patchset follows on from the port rerpesentor patchsets and the
community discussion that resulted. It outlines the model for
representing and controlling switching capable devices in a new
programmer's guide entry based upon the excellent summary by
Adrien Mazarguil in
(http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2018-March/092513.html).
The next patches introduce changes to librte_ether to:
1, support the definition of a switch domain and make it public to
application through the rte_eth_dev_info structure.
2, Add generic ethdev create/destroy APIs to facilitate and generalise the
creation of ethdev's on different bus types.
3, Add ethdev attribute to dev_flags to specify that a port is a
representor port and make public through the rte_eth_dev_info
structure.
4, Add devargs parsing for generic eth_devargs to facilate parsing in
NET PMDs. This will be refactored to take account of the changes in
(http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2018-March/092513.html)
5, Add new API to allocate switch domain ids to devices which support
this feature.
This patchset also includes the enablement of vf port representor for ixgbe
and i40e PF devices.
V8:
- add detailed descriptions to switch information structures
- fix err condition checking ethdev create helper function
- fix devargs memory leak and error checking + add documentation on
ethdev args.
- remove rte_eth_switch_domains structure from export items.
V7:
This patch address the following changes:
- fixes in documentation patch
- changes the default value of switch domain id to be INVALID to allow
applications to easily identify devices which can/cannot support the
concept. Updates the switch information available through the
rte_eth_dev_info structure.
- remove the rte_ethdev_representor.h header and leave representor
specific initialisation to driver
- add new APIs for allocating and freeing switch domain identifier to
enable PMDs to have unique switch domaind ids without the ethdev
infrastructure placing any restriction on how theses are managed by
devices.
- bug fix in ethdev args parsing code.
