Hi,

We have a Gigabyte H97N motherboard which has I217 Intel chipset which uses
e100e drivers. I looked into lib/librte_pmd_e1000 directory and I do see
that e1000e code is integrated but missing some support for read/write from
flash_address and other minor things. I have made changes shown below and
have done some testing with testpmd utility and now have following questions

1. What amount of testing is required to qualify patch as successfully
tested on new chipsets

2. FreeBSD testing, currently we have Ubuntu 14.04 installed on existing
H97N motherboard and testing is done solely on Linux. We plan to get
another motherboard which will have I218 chipset and still deciding whether
to go with FreeBSD or Ubuntu. So the question I have is what amount of
testing should be done on FreeBSD? I don't think setup.sh/dpdk_nic_bind.py
works on FreeBSD yet hence the question on testing.

Thanks,
Ravi

There is no good answer to this question. Generally, you must be sure that
you don't break anything.
So you must test the code paths you have changed.

FreeBSD testing is required when patching common EAL, scripts or makefiles.

These files are part of the base driver.
The rule is to not patch them and try to do the changes in PMD only.
There can be exceptions if an Intel maintainer acknowledges it.

<rk> yes I have done testing on Ubuntu for I217 using testpmd.

<rk>  Changes in these files are modifying existing macros

E1000_READ_FLASH_REG,
E1000_WRITE_FLASH_REG
...

If it is not recommended to modify these files, should I move macros into
some PMD file?

Thanks.

Thomas,

Please let me know how I can move forward on this. If i confine changes in
e1000/ directory to e1000_osdep.h file only and the rest in PMD will that
work? The reason I ask is because of following comment  in README file.

...
Few changes to the original FreeBSD sources were made to:
- Adopt it for PMD usage mode:
        e1000_osdep.c
        e1000_osdep.h
...

Thanks.

This is an Intel driver so you should ask to the responsible of this code at Intel.
The problem is that there is not really an identified responsible for this driver.

The rule is to not change the base driver, even osdep files.
But it would be better to have an exception here.

<rk> Please let me know who is the contact person from Intel so I can add

We're looking into this, but don't have a definitive answer yet. Somebody from Intel will reply as soon as we've confirmed whether the change you proposed is OK or not.

Yes, if needed you can modify these files.
In fact, these files are the only 2 that are allowed to be modified inside e1000 sub-directory.
As I understand you plan to implement E1000_READ_FLASH_REG  and E1000_WRITE_FLASH_REG
macros properly, correct?

As Konstantin indicated, please do not try to modify any code in any source files in e1000
sub-folder, except e1000_osdep.c and e1000_osdep.h. If this piece of code is needed, please
try to move it to em_ethdev.c or e1000_osdep.c files!

As a cleanup we should really look to move these two files out of the e1000
subdirectory (and similarly for the ixgbe versions etc.), so as to give a cleaner
and more manageable separation between what can be edited or not.

It was always like that for all Intel PMDs we have:

$ find lib/ -name '*_osdep.*' | grep -v acl
lib/librte_pmd_vmxnet3/vmxnet3/vmxnet3_osdep.h
lib/librte_pmd_ixgbe/ixgbe/ixgbe_osdep.h
lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/kni/ethtool/ixgbe/ixgbe_osdep.h
lib/librte_eal/linuxapp/kni/ethtool/igb/e1000_osdep.h
lib/librte_pmd_i40e/i40e/i40e_osdep.h
lib/librte_pmd_e1000/e1000/e1000_osdep.c
lib/librte_pmd_e1000/e1000/e1000_osdep.h

As I understand ND has it's own version of <drvname>_osdep.* for each OS they support.
We obviously modify it to fit DPDK purposes.

Yep. Doesn't mean we haven't put it in the wrong place though! :-)

We just don't move it at all :)
It is at the same place where ND puts it, we just modify the contents.

Intel team,

Please let me know what additional testing needs to be done for I217/I218?
I have confined changes only to _osdep_ files and have done basic testing
with testpmd utility. Since DPDK PMD driver supporting e1000e  has been
available for quite sometime, I have assumed basic testing for Tx/Rx
packets should suffice.

Thanks,
Ravi
