This commit introduces extension of DPDK flow action API enabling
sharing of single rte_flow_action in multiple flows. The API intended for
PMDs where multiple HW offloaded flows can reuse the same HW
essence/object representing flow action and modification of such an
essence/object effects all the rules using it.

Motivation and example
===
Adding or removing one or more queues to RSS used by multiple flow rules
imposes per rule toll for current DPDK flow API; the scenario requires
for each flow sharing cloned RSS action:
- call `rte_flow_destroy()`
- call `rte_flow_create()` with modified RSS action

API for sharing action and its in-place update benefits:
- reduce the overhead of multiple RSS flow rules reconfiguration .
- optimize resource utilization by sharing action across of of multiple
  flows

Change description
===

Shared action
===
In order to represent flow action shared by multiple flows new action
type RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_SHARED introduced (see `enum
rte_flow_action_type`).
Actually the introduced API decouples action from any specific flow and
enables sharing of single action by its handle for multiple flows.

Shared action create/use/destroy
===
Shared action may be reused by some or none flow rules at any given
moment, IOW shared action reside outside of the context of any flow.
Shared action represent HW resources/objects used for action offloading
implementation. For allocation/release of all HW resources and all
related initializations/cleanups in PMD space required for shared action
implementation added new API
rte_flow_shared_action_create()/rte_flow_shared_action_destroy().
In addition to the above all preparations needed to maintain shared
access to the action resources, configuration and state should be done in
rte_flow_shared_action_create().

In order to share some flow action reuse the handle of type
`struct rte_flow_shared_action` returned by
rte_flow_shared_action_create() as a `conf` field of
`struct rte_flow_action` (see "example" section).

If some shared action not used by any flow rule all resources allocated
by the shared action can be released by rte_flow_shared_action_destroy()
(see "example" section). The shared action handle passed as argument to
destroy API should not be used i.e. result of the usage is undefined.

Shared action re-configuration
===
Shared action behavior defined by its configuration & and can be updated
via rte_flow_shared_action_update() (see "example" section). The shared
action update operation modifies HW related resources/objects allocated
by the action. The number of operations performed by the update operation
should not be dependent on number of flows sharing the related action.
On return of shared action updated API action behavior should be
according to updated configuration for all flows sharing the action.

Shared action query
===
Provide separate API to query shared action sate (see
rte_flow_shared_action_update()). Taking a counter as an example: query
returns value aggregating all counter increments across all flow rules
sharing the counter.

PMD support
===
The support of introduced API is pure PMD specific design and
responsibility for each action type (see struct rte_flow_ops).

testpmd
===
In order to utilize introduced API testpmd cli may implement following
extension
create/update/destroy/query shared action accordingly

flow shared_action create {port_id} [index] {action}
flow shared_action update {port_id} {index} {action}
flow shared_action destroy {port_id} {index}
flow shared_action query {port_id} {index}

testpmd example
===

configure rss to queues 1 & 2

testpmd> flow shared_action create 0 100 rss 1 2

create flow rule utilizing shared action

testpmd> flow create 0 ingress \
    pattern eth dst is 0c:42:a1:15:fd:ac / ipv6 / tcp / end \
  actions shared 100 end / end

add 2 more queues

testpmd> flow shared_action modify 0 100 rss 1 2 3 4

example
===

struct rte_flow_action actions[2];
struct rte_flow_action action;
/* skipped: initialize action */
struct rte_flow_shared_action *handle = rte_flow_shared_action_create(
					port_id, &action, &error);
actions[0].type = RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_SHARED;
actions[0].conf = handle;
actions[1].type = RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_END;
/* skipped: init attr0 & pattern0 args */
struct rte_flow *flow0 = rte_flow_create(port_id, &attr0, pattern0,
					actions, error);
/* create more rules reusing shared action */
struct rte_flow *flow1 = rte_flow_create(port_id, &attr1, pattern1,
					actions, error);
/* skipped: for flows 2 till N */
struct rte_flow *flowN = rte_flow_create(port_id, &attrN, patternN,
					actions, error);
/* update shared action */
struct rte_flow_action updated_action;
/*
 * skipped: initialize updated_action according to desired action
 * configuration change
 */
rte_flow_shared_action_update(port_id, handle, updated_action.conf,
				error);
/*
 * from now on all flows 1 till N will act according to configuration of
 * updated_action
 */
/* skipped: destroy all flows 1 till N */
rte_flow_shared_action_destroy(port_id, handle, error);

Yes you are absolutely right Jerin.
It is said in the contribution docs, but we must repeat it again
and again, especially for newcomers like here.

	The CC list is very important!
	Please pay attention to Cc the relevant maintainers
	AND the persons who already showed some interest.

It may be a blocker for merge, thanks for sharing with co-workers.

Just to clarify my next steps:
- remove irrelevant signoffs.
- all those who already showed interest should be added to CC field
- send PATCH v2 in reply to this email.

Thanks & sorry for the mess.

I need to mention the locking issue once again.
If there is a need to maintain "shared session" in the generic rte_flow
layer all
calls to flow_create() with shared action & all delete need to take
sharedsession
management locks at least for verification. Lock partitioning is also bit
problematic
since one flow may have more than one shared action.

Then, I think better approach would be to introduce
rte_flow_action_update() public
API which can either take "const struct rte_flow_action []" OR shared
context ID, to cater to
both cases or something on similar lines. This would allow HW's
without have  the shared context ID
to use the action update.

Can you please explain your idea?
As I can see if we use the flow_action array it may result in bugs.
For example, the application created two flows with the same RSS (not using the context)
Then he wants to change one flow to use different RSS, but the result will that both flows
will be changed. 
Also this will enforce the PMD to keep track on all flows which will have memory penalty for
some PMDs.

I see two types of HW schemes supporting action updates without going
through call `rte_flow_destroy()` and call `rte_flow_create()`
- The shared HW action context feature
- The HW has "pattern" and "action" mapped to different HW objects and
action can be updated any time.
Other than above-mentioned RSS use case, another use case would be to
a) create rte_flow and set the action as DROP (Kind of reserving the HW object)
b) Update the action only when the rest of the requirements ready.

Any API schematic that supports both notions of HW is fine with me.

Sorry. I don't quite follow this.

I have an idea if the API will be changed to something like this,
Rte_flow_shared_action_update(uint16_port port, rte_shared_ctx *ctx, rte_flow_action *action, error)
This will enable the application to send a different action than the original one to be switched.
Assuming the PMD supports this.
Does it answer your concerns?

I was trying to show that there must be some context. But I don’t think this is relevant to
your current ideas.

Hi, Jerin.

Please see below Ori's suggestion below to implement your
rte_flow_action_update() idea
with some API changes of rte_flow_shared_action_xxx API changes.

This allows both:
1. Update action configuration
2. Replace action by some other action
For 2 pure software implementation may carate shred action (that can be
shared
with one flow only, depends on PMD) and later on
rte_flow_shared_action_update may replace this
action with some other action by handle returned from
rte_flow_shared_action_create
Doesign between 1 and 2 is per PMD.

struct rte_flow * object holds the driver representation of the
pattern + action.
So in order to update the action, we would need struct rte_flow * in API.

I think, simple API change would be to accommodate "rte_shared_ctx
*ctx, rte_flow_action *action" modes
without introducing the emulation for one or other mode, will be.

enum rte_flow_action_update_type {
              RTE_FLOW_ACTION_UPDATE_TYPE_SHARED_ACTION,
              RTE_FLOW_ACTION_UPDATE_TYPE_ACTION,
};

struct rte_flow_action_update_type_param {
         enum rte_flow_action_update_type type;
         union {
                     struct rte_flow_action_update_type_shared_action_param {
                                rte_shared_ctx *ctx;
                      } shared_action;
                      struct rte_flow_action_update_type_shared_action_param {
                                rte_flow *flow,
                                 rte_flow_action *action;
                      } action;
         }
}

rte_flow_action_update(uint16_port port, struct
rte_flow_action_update_type_param  *param, error)

Why is that? The idea is to change the action, the action itself is connected to flows.
The PMD can save in the shared_ctx all flows that are connected to this action.

Thank you for the idea but I fall to see how your suggested API is simpler than the one suggested by me?
In my suggestion the PMD simply needs to check if the new action and change the 
context and to that action, or just change parameters in the action, if it is the same action.

Let's go with the original patch API modified to support like you requested also changing the action,
based on my comments.

Hi Ori, Andrey,

This is a set of new APIs and we are very close to the -rc1, so we have only a
few days to close the feature to merge them for this release.

Also accompanying PMD and testpmd implementation with the proposed API changes
looks missing.

We can either postpone the patchset to next release to give time for more PMD
owners to participate, which can give better API for long term.
Or try to to squeeze into this release taking into account that the APIs will be
experimental.

What do you think, what is you schedule for the feature, do you have room to
postpone it?
If not, first existing discussions needs to resolved, and it is good to have the
PMD and testpmd implementations, do you think can this be done for next few days?


Thanks,
ferruh

Not so much it is an important API for Mellanox.

I think that this is the correct API to implement, I fully agree that this API is experimental
just like any other new API, and might change based on comments and use cases.
I know that Mellanox is committed to this feature and that Andrey is working around the clock 
to complete the missing parts, and should have a version by tomorrow (July 8th ) evening.
(with update to flow filtering sample app, testpmd will not be ready by RC1, but it will be for RC2)
We would like very much to push it in this version.

Thanks,
Ori

My thought process with the below-proposed API[1] is that It is
dictates "_shared_action_" in API name as
well as arguments. I just thought of expressing it as either-or case
hence I thought [2] is better. i.e The PMD does not support
shared_action, not even need to create one to use
rte_flow_action_update() to avoid the confusion. Thoughts?

[1]
rte_flow_shared_action_update(uint16_port port, rte_shared_ctx *ctx,

Let me see if I understand you correctly, your suggestion is to allow
the application to change one action in one flow, but instead of creating 
the context the application will just supply the rte_flow and the new actions
do I understand correctly?

If so this it is a nice idea, but there are some issues with it,
1. The PMD must save the flow which will result in memory consumption.
2. Assume that two flows are using the same RSS action for example, so the PMD
reuse the RSS object he created for the first flow also for the second. Now changing
this RSS flow may result in also changing the second flow. (this can be solved by always 
creating new action)
3. It doesn't handle the main use case that the application wants to change number of
flows at the same time, which is the idea of this feature.

I also think that all PMD that support option 2 can  support option 1 since
they can save in the ctx a list of flows and simply apply them again. So by
definition if PMD supports [2] it also support [1] while the other 
way is not correct since it forces the PMD to save flows which like I said waste memory.

I suggest that we will go with option [1], and if needed in the future we will update the code.
using option [2] will result in dead code since at least for the current time no PMD will implement this
API. 

I can suggest one more thing maybe to change the name from shared_ctx to just ctx
which implicitly mean it can be shared but not a must. What do you think? (but again
I think by definition if a PMD can implement number [2] it can also implement it to number
of flows using API [2].

struct rte_flow * driver handle any way store that information to as
it would be needed
for other rte_flow related APIs.

It is not resuing the action, it more of updating the action. So the
above said issue won't happen.
It is removing the need for  call `rte_flow_destroy()` and call
`rte_flow_create()` if only action
needs to update for THE given flow. That's it.

We discussed this in detail and tried approach for the common code to
make everything
as shared action. Andrey quickly realizes that it is difficult without
HW support.

If we use "rte_flow_shared_action_update(uint16_port port,
rte_shared_ctx *ctx,  rte_flow_action *action, error)",
What would be ctx value for the HW does not support a shared context?
That's is the only reason for
my proposal.  I understand, your concern about supporting two modes in
PMD, I don't think,
PMD needs to support RTE_FLOW_ACTION_UPDATE_TYPE_ACTION if
RTE_FLOW_ACTION_UPDATE_TYPE_SHARED_ACTION supported.

We are planning to update our PMD to support this once API is finalized.

Just void *type is fine too, but we need an argument for type to cast
it in application and/or driver.

 enum rte_flow_action_update_type {
              RTE_FLOW_ACTION_UPDATE_TYPE_SHARED_ACTION,
              RTE_FLOW_ACTION_UPDATE_TYPE_ACTION,
 };

The driver for example in Mellanox case save only the pointer to the flow so it can
destroy it on request. It can't remove it and add it again since it is missing critical 
info. To save the info will cost memory. I assume this goes to other drivers.
There is no real need to save anything but the flow pointer.

Again this means that the driver must save all flows so it will waste memory.
also this doesn’t save any time, since the application can just do it the same way
as the PMD there is no value to do it inside the PMD.

Like everything in RTE flow this is all about HW support 😊
If the HW doesn’t support it don't do it.

This is the beauty of it ctx is opaque so the PMD can have what ever it wants to have. Just like
an rte_flow that each PMD have different fields and usage.

Great very happy to hear that.
This means that we should push this feature even faster 😊

Like said above this is opaque so the PMD knows what to expect.

If driver _need_ this feature, then the driver needs to store some
info in the flow object,
In our case, it will be the index of the MCAM action, etc.
Yes. it up to driver the how they want to support it.

Why driver need to save all the flow, We need to save all the flow ONLY when
we need to emulate the shared context. We need to save only additional
info like,
MCAM index where the action was allocated or such, so that it can be replaced.

Driver side it is OKAY but how the application can update it? The PMD does not
need or does not have a shared object.

Otherway to ask is, Could you have share the API call sequence using
"rte_flow_shared_action_update(uint16_port port, rte_shared_ctx *ctx,
rte_flow_action *action, error)"

to enable support for the following category of HW as I mentioned earlier.
- The HW has "pattern" and "action" mapped to different HW objects and
action can be updated any time without destroying and create.(a,k,a
Does not have shared HW object)

Yes an example of API usage may help.
We should get one today.

The PMD is getting the shared object that the PMD created so the PMD has all information.
It is the PMD that control what is in the ctx. The application just saves this pointer and gives it 
to the MD on modify and destroy or the creation of flow.
From application point of view he asks the DPDK to change the ctx that it has
to do a different action, the application doesn’t know or care what is inside the
the ctx.

I hope that by the end of today Andrey will post such a code.

I'm not sure I understand this comment.

Let's advance in the following way.
Andrey please send V2 that changes the API to use rte_flow_action and  a sample code
and some PMD code so we can see how it should work.

Hi Jerin and Ori.

V2 changes:
- First version of PMD implementation for shared action API.
- Simple example application demonstaration shared action update.
- Changes to shred action API according to discussion of V1.

@Jerin Jacob: please take a look at provided example, hopefully it
will help to converge our API discussion and reach consensus on it.

Thanks,
Andrey

This commit introduces extension of DPDK flow action API enabling
sharing of single rte_flow_action in multiple flows. The API intended for
PMDs where multiple HW offloaded flows can reuse the same HW
essence/object representing flow action and modification of such an
essence/object effects all the rules using it.

Motivation and example
===
Adding or removing one or more queues to RSS used by multiple flow rules
imposes per rule toll for current DPDK flow API; the scenario requires
for each flow sharing cloned RSS action:
- call `rte_flow_destroy()`
- call `rte_flow_create()` with modified RSS action

API for sharing action and its in-place update benefits:
- reduce the overhead of multiple RSS flow rules reconfiguration
- optimize resource utilization by sharing action across of multiple
  flows

Change description
===

Shared action
===
In order to represent flow action shared by multiple flows new action
type RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_SHARED is introduced (see `enum
rte_flow_action_type`).
Actually the introduced API decouples action from any specific flow and
enables sharing of single action by its handle across multiple flows.

Shared action create/use/destroy
===
Shared action may be reused by some or none flow rules at any given
moment, i.e. shared action reside outside of the context of any flow.
Shared action represent HW resources/objects used for action offloading
implementation.
API for shared action create (see `rte_flow_shared_action_create()`):
- should allocate HW resources and make related initializations required
  for shared action implementation.
- make necessary preparations to maintain shared access to
  the action resources, configuration and state.
API for shared action destroy (see `rte_flow_shared_action_destroy()`)
should release HW resources and make related cleanups required for shared
action implementation.

In order to share some flow action reuse the handle of type
`struct rte_flow_shared_action` returned by
rte_flow_shared_action_create() as a `conf` field of
`struct rte_flow_action` (see "example" section).

If some shared action not used by any flow rule all resources allocated
by the shared action can be released by rte_flow_shared_action_destroy()
(see "example" section). The shared action handle passed as argument to
destroy API should not be used any further i.e. result of the usage is
undefined.

Shared action re-configuration
===
Shared action behavior defined by its configuration can be updated via
rte_flow_shared_action_update() (see "example" section). The shared
action update operation modifies HW related resources/objects allocated
on the action creation. The number of operations performed by the update
operation should not be dependent on number of flows sharing the related
action. On return of shared action update API action behavior should be
according to updated configuration for all flows sharing the action.

Shared action query
===
Provide separate API to query shared action sate (see
rte_flow_shared_action_update()). Taking a counter as an example: query
returns value aggregating all counter increments across all flow rules
sharing the counter.

PMD support
===
The support of introduced API is pure PMD specific design and
responsibility for each action type (see struct rte_flow_ops).

testpmd
===
In order to utilize introduced API testpmd cli may implement following
extension
create/update/destroy/query shared action accordingly

flow shared_action create {port_id} [index] {action}
flow shared_action update {port_id} {index} {action}
flow shared_action destroy {port_id} {index}
flow shared_action query {port_id} {index}

testpmd example
===

configure rss to queues 1 & 2

testpmd> flow shared_action create 0 100 rss 1 2

create flow rule utilizing shared action

testpmd> flow create 0 ingress \
    pattern eth dst is 0c:42:a1:15:fd:ac / ipv6 / tcp / end \
  actions shared 100 end / end

add 2 more queues

testpmd> flow shared_action modify 0 100 rss 1 2 3 4

example
===

struct rte_flow_action actions[2];
struct rte_flow_action action;
/* skipped: initialize action */
struct rte_flow_shared_action *handle = rte_flow_shared_action_create(
					port_id, &action, &error);
actions[0].type = RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_SHARED;
actions[0].conf = handle;
actions[1].type = RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_END;
/* skipped: init attr0 & pattern0 args */
struct rte_flow *flow0 = rte_flow_create(port_id, &attr0, pattern0,
					actions, error);
/* create more rules reusing shared action */
struct rte_flow *flow1 = rte_flow_create(port_id, &attr1, pattern1,
					actions, error);
/* skipped: for flows 2 till N */
struct rte_flow *flowN = rte_flow_create(port_id, &attrN, patternN,
					actions, error);
/* update shared action */
struct rte_flow_action updated_action;
/*
 * skipped: initialize updated_action according to desired action
 * configuration change
 */
rte_flow_shared_action_update(port_id, handle, &updated_action, error);
/*
 * from now on all flows 1 till N will act according to configuration of
 * updated_action
 */
/* skipped: destroy all flows 1 till N */
rte_flow_shared_action_destroy(port_id, handle, error);

This commit gives very first shared RSS action usage example and
demonstrates shared action capability for in-place update.

First application creates shared action during initialization phase.
Later on the flow object created by application uses previously created
shared RSS action with 1 queue configured instead of queue action in
original application.

On each RX queue burst shared RSS action reconfigured via
rte_flow_shared_action_update() API to switch queue 0 to 1 & 1 to 0.
User supposed to observe consistent queue switches on each packet burst.

I am sorry, Based on my understanding it is not addressing API sequence query[1]


[1]
---
http://mails.dpdk.org/archives/dev/2020-July/173997.html
ie.

Otherway to ask is, Could you have share the API call sequence using
"rte_flow_shared_action_update(uint16_port port, rte_shared_ctx *ctx,
rte_flow_action *action, error)"

to enable support for the following category of HW as I mentioned earlier.
- The HW has "pattern" and "action" mapped to different HW objects and
action can be updated any time without destroying and create.(a,k,a
Does not have shared HW object)

Hi, Jerin and Ferruh

First of all it's  decided to postpone this effort to 20.11.
@jerinj@marvell.com I sincerely believe we can work out great API for
- shared action, context
- action update / modification / replacement
after 20.08 without time pressure & stress.

I'm fully committed and will continue to work on this PATCH.
I'll resend improved version of this patch once 20.08 is out & we will
continue our discussion from here to make it even better.

Many thanks to all participants of this discussion,
Andrey

+1 the new action should be added as a new case and should run only if it is

I don't think you should wait 20.08 (one month) to progress.
Ideally, it should be ready to be merged in the first day of 20.11 cycle.

Please add the feature in the release notes (even in 20.08 one
in the meantime).

It *allows* to reduce the overhead of multiple RSS flow rules
reconfiguration. I.e. it is not mandatory. PMD may do it in SW,
if HW does not support it. I see no problem to allow it.
Even if it is done in PMD, it is already an optimization since
applications have unified interface and internally it should
be cheaper to do it.
I'd consider to implement generic SW helper API for PMDs which
cannot have shared actions in HW, but would like to simulate it
in SW. It would allow to avoid the fallback in applications.

May be it makes sense to implement housekeeping in ethdev
layer? I.e. guarantee consequency using reference counters etc.
Will applications benefit from it?

If shared action is simulated in SW, number of operations to do
reconfiguration will depend on a number of flow rules using it.
I think it is not a problem. So, *should not* used above is OK.

Consider:
"should not be dependent on" -> "should not depend on"

It should be possible to have many actions in shared action.
I.e. similar to below, it should be an array terminated by
RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_END. It is unclear from the example
above.

The interesting question what to do, if some rule cannot have a

May be it is better to highlight it.

Why? If it is a generic rule, it should be checked on a generic
ethdev layer, but I would not impose the limitation. If PMD
may change it, why generic interface specification should
restrict it.

It *allows* to reduce the overhead of multiple RSS flow rules
reconfiguration. I.e. it is not mandatory. PMD may do it in SW,
if HW does not support it. I see no problem to allow it.
Even if it is done in PMD, it is already an optimization since
applications have unified interface and internally it should
be cheaper to do it.
I'd consider to implement generic SW helper API for PMDs which
cannot have shared actions in HW, but would like to simulate it
in SW. It would allow to avoid the fallback in applications.

May be it makes sense to implement housekeeping in ethdev
layer? I.e. guarantee consequency using reference counters etc.
Will applications benefit from it?

If shared action is simulated in SW, number of operations to do
reconfiguration will depend on a number of flow rules using it.
I think it is not a problem. So, *should not* used above is OK.

Consider:
"should not be dependent on" -> "should not depend on"

It should be possible to have many actions in shared action.
I.e. similar to below, it should be an array terminated by
RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_END. It is unclear from the example
above.

The interesting question what to do, if some rule cannot have a

May be it is better to highlight it.

Why? If it is a generic rule, it should be checked on a generic
ethdev layer, but I would not impose the limitation. If PMD
may change it, why generic interface specification should
restrict it.

I'm sorry for a duplicate of my message from July, 13.
The problem is that I've not found my reply in patchwork and
mail thread. Now I found out that I'm replying to Ray's mail
and the mail is not in the thread since has invalid message
headers.

Andrew.

Hi, Andrew,

I'm back to this patch set to make it into 20.11. 

Most of the items you raised regarding SW implementation already discussed
with Jerin [1] and answered by Ori [2] and me [3]. Please follow my & Ori
answer. In general, the idea of SW implementation for shared action looks
nice from application perspective but the changes required in ethdev/rte_flow
generic layer about to impact existing rte_flow APIs.

Please follow my [3] & Ori's [2] answers & update on your suggestion to the
Proposed API.

I'll take your suggestions for rephrasing in upcoming patches version (V3).

Thanks,
Andrey

In a way, it is more to add flexibility to this proposal.
Specifying the direction explicitly is better than PMD parsing the actions
and determining if it is for ingress or egress.

If hardware does not have specific pools for either ingress or egress,
the PMD can ignore the attribute.
So it will be upto the PMD and the underlying hardware to use the
direction attribute - if necessary.

Hi Ajit

For shared action configuration I have following suggestion:
 
struct rte_flow_shared_action_conf {
	uint32_t no_ingress: 1;
	uint32_t no_egress: 1;
};
/*...*/
rte_flow_shared_action_create(..., const struct rte_flow_shared_action_conf *conf, ...);

What do you think?

Thanks,
Andrey

Personally I dislike negative flags, offloads, fields etc.
Don't we have a policy to avoid it. At least we have it for
offloads. I see no string reasons here to use negative
instead of positive here.

Agree I think it is better to use positive values and the same names as the
attribute in the flow.

@Andrew Rybchenko & @Ori Kam Got your remark regarding "negative flags".
Will replace with:
struct rte_flow_shared_action_conf {
	uint32_t ingress:1; /**< Action valid for rules applied to ingress traffic. */
	uint32_t egress:1; /**< Action valid for rules applied to egress traffic. */
};

Thanks lot for your comments & remarks.
Hopefully new version of the patch will be published next week.
The new patch about to have testpmd for shared action to demonstrate usage.

This commit introduces extension of DPDK flow action API enabling
sharing of single rte_flow_action in multiple flows. The API intended for
PMDs where multiple HW offloaded flows can reuse the same HW
essence/object representing flow action and modification of such an
essence/object effects all the rules using it.

Motivation and example
===
Adding or removing one or more queues to RSS used by multiple flow rules
imposes per rule toll for current DPDK flow API; the scenario requires
for each flow sharing cloned RSS action:
- call `rte_flow_destroy()`
- call `rte_flow_create()` with modified RSS action

API for sharing action and its in-place update benefits:
- reduce the overhead of multiple RSS flow rules reconfiguration
- optimize resource utilization by sharing action across of multiple
  flows

Change description
===

Shared action
===
In order to represent flow action shared by multiple flows new action
type RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_SHARED is introduced (see `enum
rte_flow_action_type`).
Actually the introduced API decouples action from any specific flow and
enables sharing of single action by its handle across multiple flows.

Shared action create/use/destroy
===
Shared action may be reused by some or none flow rules at any given
moment, i.e. shared action reside outside of the context of any flow.
Shared action represent HW resources/objects used for action offloading
implementation.
API for shared action create (see `rte_flow_shared_action_create()`):
- should allocate HW resources and make related initializations required
  for shared action implementation.
- make necessary preparations to maintain shared access to
  the action resources, configuration and state.
API for shared action destroy (see `rte_flow_shared_action_destroy()`)
should release HW resources and make related cleanups required for shared
action implementation.

In order to share some flow action reuse the handle of type
`struct rte_flow_shared_action` returned by
rte_flow_shared_action_create() as a `conf` field of
`struct rte_flow_action` (see "example" section).

If some shared action not used by any flow rule all resources allocated
by the shared action can be released by rte_flow_shared_action_destroy()
(see "example" section). The shared action handle passed as argument to
destroy API should not be used any further i.e. result of the usage is
undefined.

Shared action re-configuration
===
Shared action behavior defined by its configuration can be updated via
rte_flow_shared_action_update() (see "example" section). The shared
action update operation modifies HW related resources/objects allocated
on the action creation. The number of operations performed by the update
operation should not be dependent on number of flows sharing the related
action. On return of shared action update API action behavior should be
according to updated configuration for all flows sharing the action.

Shared action query
===
Provide separate API to query shared action sate (see
rte_flow_shared_action_update()). Taking a counter as an example: query
returns value aggregating all counter increments across all flow rules
sharing the counter.

PMD support
===
The support of introduced API is pure PMD specific design and
responsibility for each action type (see struct rte_flow_ops).

testpmd
===
In order to utilize introduced API testpmd cli may implement following
extension
create/update/destroy/query shared action accordingly

flow shared_action (port) create {action_id (id)} (action) / end
flow shared_action (port) update (id) (action) / end
flow shared_action (port) destroy action_id (id) {action_id (id) [...]}
flow shared_action (port) query (id)

testpmd example
===

configure rss to queues 1 & 2

> flow shared_action 0 create action_id 100 rss queues 1 2 end / end

create flow rule utilizing shared action

> flow create 0 ingress \
    pattern eth dst is 0c:42:a1:15:fd:ac / ipv6 / tcp / end \
  actions shared 100 / end

add 2 more queues

> flow shared_action 0 modify 100 rss queues 1 2 3 4 end / end

example
===

struct rte_flow_action actions[2];
struct rte_flow_action action;
/* skipped: initialize action */
struct rte_flow_shared_action *handle = rte_flow_shared_action_create(
					port_id, &action, &error);
actions[0].type = RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_SHARED;
actions[0].conf = handle;
actions[1].type = RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_END;
/* skipped: init attr0 & pattern0 args */
struct rte_flow *flow0 = rte_flow_create(port_id, &attr0, pattern0,
					actions, error);
/* create more rules reusing shared action */
struct rte_flow *flow1 = rte_flow_create(port_id, &attr1, pattern1,
					actions, error);
/* skipped: for flows 2 till N */
struct rte_flow *flowN = rte_flow_create(port_id, &attrN, patternN,
					actions, error);
/* update shared action */
struct rte_flow_action updated_action;
/*
 * skipped: initialize updated_action according to desired action
 * configuration change
 */
rte_flow_shared_action_update(port_id, handle, &updated_action, error);
/*
 * from now on all flows 1 till N will act according to configuration of
 * updated_action
 */
/* skipped: destroy all flows 1 till N */
rte_flow_shared_action_destroy(port_id, handle, error);

Add configuration argument to shared action create interface.
Currently there is only ingress & egress fields but more fields can be
added later. Shared action configuration & implementation are PMD
specific.

Add support for configuration argument in shared action validate/create
API. Currently the inly shared action implemented is RSS.
For shared RSS action configuration argument ignpred but it can be
utilized by other types of shared actions.

From: Andrey Vesnovaty <andreyv@mellanox.com>

This commit give very first shared RSS action usage example.
Queue action used by the flow replaced by shared RSS action
having single queue. On each RX burst queue switched 0 <-> 1
utilizing rte_flow_shared_action_update() API. User supposed
to observe consistent queue switches on each packet burst.

This patch adds shared action support to testpmd CLI.

All shared actions created via testpmd CLI assigned ID for further
reference in other CLI commands. Shared action ID supplied as CLI
argument or assigned by testpmd is similar to flow ID & limited to
scope of testpdm CLI.

Create shared action syntax:
flow shared_action (port) create {action_id (shared_action_id)} \
	(action) / end

Create shared action examples:
	flow shared_action 0 create action_id 100 \
		rss queues 1 2 end / end
	This creates shared rss action with id 100 on port 0.

	flow shared_action 0 create action_id \
		rss queues 0 1 end / end
	This creates shared rss action with id assigned by tetspmd
	on port 0.

Update shared action syntax:
flow shared_action (port) update (shared_action_id) (action) / end

Update shared action example:
	flow shared_action 0 update 100 rss queues 0 3 end / end
	This updates shared rss action having id 100 on port 0
	with rss to queues 0 3 (in create example rss queues were
	1 & 2).

Destroy shared action syntax:
flow shared_action (port) destroy action_id (shared_action_id) \
	{ action_id (shared_action_id) [...]}

Update shared action example:
	flow shared_action 0 destroy action_id 100 action_id 101
	This destroys shared actions having id 100 & 101

Query shared action syntax:
flow shared_action (port) query (shared_action_id)

Query shared action example:
	flow shared_action 0 query 100
	This queries shared actions having id 100

Use shared action as flow action syntax:
flow create (port) ... / end actions {action / [...]} \
	shared (action_id) / {action / [...]} end

Use shared action as flow action example:
	flow create 0 ingress pattern ... / end \
		actions shared 100 / end
	This creates flow rule where rss action is shared rss action
	having id 100.

All shared action CLIs report status of the command.
Shared action query CLI output depends on action type.

Hi Andrey,

You are missing the doc update (rte_flow) 
PSB for more comments.

Best,

I think sate --> state, also it is not clear if we are sharing both configuration and state
or only configuration. For example what will happen if we create counter and attached it
to number of flow? Does it count for all flow so counter = flow1 + flow2?
Or it is only for configuration which means that one each flow gets different counter?
For counter there is a shared bit in the action so this can be used to determent if the state
should be shared,  but counter doesn't have configuration to share.
What happens with aging where we have state and configuration?

I'm O.K with starting just with configuration, but it should be clear.

Hi Andrey

Why is this patch not part of the previous one?

Hi Andrey,

I suggest that you split this patchset to two different ones.
One for the Mellanox PMD
and one RTE  just in each patch set reference the second patch.
This why it is possible to merge only the RTE level, if other PMD will use it.

Best,
Ori

Hi Andrey,

I don't think this change should be part of the series.
After you update this example will only work if the PMD support shared action.
Not all PMD supports it, and in any case this example is to show basic rules and RSS
your code changes the app that the RSS action can't be checked.

Best,
Ori

Before this can be accepted, you need to add a test.
Ideally part of the test infrastructure, but a a minimum some way to demonstrate
usage with testpmd.

Nevermind, did not read far enough ahead in list to see the tests.

Shared action state considered shared till it's defined differently.
So when shared action queried it's considered query for state.
Configuration of shred action controlled by rte_flow_sahred_action_create()
and rte_flow_shared_action_update() APIs and no supposed to change by
other means. Do you think there is a need to query shared action configuration?

Now there is PMD support for shared action & having some example isn't critical
For this patch series. Removing it.

There is a fallback for PMDs without shared action support but I that
agree, it would be better to provide separate example for shared RSS.

This commit introduces extension of DPDK flow action API enabling
sharing of single rte_flow_action in multiple flows. The API intended for
PMDs, where multiple HW offloaded flows can reuse the same HW
essence/object representing flow action and modification of such an
essence/object affects all the rules using it.

Motivation and example
===
Adding or removing one or more queues to RSS used by multiple flow rules
imposes per rule toll for current DPDK flow API; the scenario requires
for each flow sharing cloned RSS action:
- call `rte_flow_destroy()`
- call `rte_flow_create()` with modified RSS action

API for sharing action and its in-place update benefits:
- reduce the overhead of multiple RSS flow rules reconfiguration
- optimize resource utilization by sharing action across multiple
  flows

Change description
===

Shared action
===
In order to represent flow action shared by multiple flows new action
type RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_SHARED is introduced (see `enum
rte_flow_action_type`).
Actually the introduced API decouples action from any specific flow and
enables sharing of single action by its handle across multiple flows.

Shared action create/use/destroy
===
Shared action may be reused by some or none flow rules at any given
moment, i.e. shared action reside outside of the context of any flow.
Shared action represent HW resources/objects used for action offloading
implementation.
API for shared action create (see `rte_flow_shared_action_create()`):
- should allocate HW resources and make related initializations required
  for shared action implementation.
- make necessary preparations to maintain shared access to
  the action resources, configuration and state.
API for shared action destroy (see `rte_flow_shared_action_destroy()`)
should release HW resources and make related cleanups required for shared
action implementation.

In order to share some flow action reuse the handle of type
`struct rte_flow_shared_action` returned by
rte_flow_shared_action_create() as a `conf` field of
`struct rte_flow_action` (see "example" section).

If some shared action not used by any flow rule all resources allocated
by the shared action can be released by rte_flow_shared_action_destroy()
(see "example" section). The shared action handle passed as argument to
destroy API should not be used any further i.e. result of the usage is
undefined.

Shared action re-configuration
===
Shared action behavior defined by its configuration can be updated via
rte_flow_shared_action_update() (see "example" section). The shared
action update operation modifies HW related resources/objects allocated
on the action creation. The number of operations performed by the update
operation should not depend on the number of flows sharing the related
action. On return of shared action update API action behavior should be
according to updated configuration for all flows sharing the action.

Shared action query
===
Provide separate API to query shared action state (see
rte_flow_shared_action_update()). Taking a counter as an example: query
returns value aggregating all counter increments across all flow rules
sharing the counter. This API doesn't query shared action configuration
since it is controlled by rte_flow_shared_action_create() and
rte_flow_shared_action_update() APIs and no supposed to change by other
means.

PMD support
===
The support of introduced API is pure PMD specific design and
responsibility for each action type (see struct rte_flow_ops).

testpmd
===
In order to utilize introduced API testpmd cli may implement following
extension
create/update/destroy/query shared action accordingly

flow shared_action (port) create {action_id (id)} (action) / end
flow shared_action (port) update (id) (action) / end
flow shared_action (port) destroy action_id (id) {action_id (id) [...]}
flow shared_action (port) query (id)

testpmd example
===

configure rss to queues 1 & 2

> flow shared_action 0 create action_id 100 rss queues 1 2 end / end

create flow rule utilizing shared action

> flow create 0 ingress \
    pattern eth dst is 0c:42:a1:15:fd:ac / ipv6 / tcp / end \
  actions shared 100 / end

add 2 more queues

> flow shared_action 0 modify 100 rss queues 1 2 3 4 end / end

example
===

struct rte_flow_action actions[2];
struct rte_flow_action action;
/* skipped: initialize action */
struct rte_flow_shared_action *handle = rte_flow_shared_action_create(
					port_id, &action, &error);
actions[0].type = RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_SHARED;
actions[0].conf = handle;
actions[1].type = RTE_FLOW_ACTION_TYPE_END;
/* skipped: init attr0 & pattern0 args */
struct rte_flow *flow0 = rte_flow_create(port_id, &attr0, pattern0,
					actions, error);
/* create more rules reusing shared action */
struct rte_flow *flow1 = rte_flow_create(port_id, &attr1, pattern1,
					actions, error);
/* skipped: for flows 2 till N */
struct rte_flow *flowN = rte_flow_create(port_id, &attrN, patternN,
					actions, error);
/* update shared action */
struct rte_flow_action updated_action;
/*
 * skipped: initialize updated_action according to desired action
 * configuration change
 */
rte_flow_shared_action_update(port_id, handle, &updated_action, error);
/*
 * from now on all flows 1 till N will act according to configuration of
 * updated_action
 */
/* skipped: destroy all flows 1 till N */
rte_flow_shared_action_destroy(port_id, handle, error);
