Subject: [dpdk-dev] [RFC 0/3] Add mdev (Mediated device) support in DPDK
Date: Wed,  3 Apr 2019 15:18:41 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190403071844.21126-1-tiwei.bie@intel.com> (raw)
Message-ID: <20190403071841.YWn1WLUqShPRTRxmecrcLe41Af1IfiEnxQKTYbOs7-w@z> (raw)

Hi everyone,

This is a draft implementation of the mdev (Mediated device [1])
bus support in DPDK. Mdev is a way to virtualize devices in Linux
kernel. Based on the device-api (mdev_type/device_api), there could
be different types of mdev devices (e.g. vfio-pci). In this RFC,
one mdev bus is introduced to scan the mdev devices in the system
and do the probe based on the device-api.

Take the mdev devices whose device-api is "vfio-pci" as an example,
in this RFC, these devices will be probed by a mdev driver provided
by PCI bus, which will plug them to the PCI bus. And they will be
probed with the drivers registered on the PCI bus based on VendorID/
DeviceID/... then.

                     +----------+
                     | mdev bus |
                     +----+-----+
                          |
         +----------------+----+------+------+
         |                     |      |      |
   mdev_vfio_pci               ......
(device-api: vfio-pci)

There are also other ways to add mdev device support in DPDK (e.g.
let PCI bus scan /sys/bus/mdev/devices directly). Comments would be
appreciated!
