Subject: [dpdk-dev] [RFC 0/4] ethdev: claim device reset as async
Date: Wed, 8 Aug 2018 15:05:45 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180808070545.13510-1-qi.z.zhang@intel.com> (raw)
Device reset may have the dependency, for example, a VF reset expects
PF ready, or a NIC function as a part of a SOC need to wait for other
parts of the system be ready, these are time-consuming tasks and will
block current thread.
So we claimed rte_eth_dev_reset as an async API, that makes things
easy for an application that what to reset the device from the interrupt
thread since typically a RTE_ETH_EVENT_INTR_RESET handler is invoked
in interrupt thread.
PMD is responsrible to implement ops->dev_reset in an async way, it
can offload the whole task into a separate thread, or maybe just pending
on hardware interrupt as reset dependency ready or start a timely alarm
to poll register status as a background daemon. PMD is also
responsible to raise the RTE_ETH_EVENT_RESET_COMPLETE event to notify the
application when reset is complete.
Application should not assume device reset is finished after
rte_eth_dev_reset return, it should always wait for a
RTE_ETH_EVENT_RESET_COMPLETE event and check the reset result.
