ice: Add support for devlink local_forwarding param

2024-07-11T17:53:57Z

Add support for driver-specific devlink local_forwarding param. Supported values are "enabled", "disabled" and "prioritized". Default configuration is set to "enabled". Add documentation in networking/devlink/ice.rst. In previous generations of Intel NICs the transmit scheduler was only limited by PCIe bandwidth when scheduling/assigning hairpin-bandwidth between VFs. Changes to E810 HW design introduced scheduler limitation, so that available hairpin-bandwidth is bound to external port speed. In order to address this limitation and enable NFV services such as "service chaining" a knob to adjust the scheduler config was created. Driver can send a configuration message to the FW over admin queue and internal FW logic will reconfigure HW to prioritize and add more BW to VF to VF traffic. An end result, for example, 10G port will no longer limit hairpin-bandwidth to 10G and much higher speeds can be achieved. Devlink local_forwarding param set to "prioritized" enables higher hairpin-bandwitdh on related PFs. Configuration is applicable only to 8x10G and 4x25G cards. Changing local_forwarding configuration will trigger CORER reset in order to take effect. Example command to change current value: devlink dev param set pci/0000:b2:00.3 name local_forwarding \ value prioritized \ cmode runtime Co-developed-by: Michal Wilczynski Signed-off-by: Michal Wilczynski Reviewed-by: Przemek Kitszel Signed-off-by: Pawel Kaminski Signed-off-by: Wojciech Drewek Tested-by: Rafal Romanowski Signed-off-by: Tony Nguyen

ice: add CGU info to devlink info callback

2023-12-05T10:40:12Z

If Clock Generation Unit is present on NIC board user shall know its details. Provide the devlink info callback with a new: - fixed type object (cgu.id) indicating hardware variant of onboard CGU, - running type object (fw.cgu) consisting of CGU id, config and firmware versions. These information shall be known for debugging purposes. Test (on NIC board with CGU) $ devlink dev info / | grep cgu cgu.id 36 fw.cgu 8032.16973825.6021 Test (on NIC board without CGU) $ devlink dev info / | grep cgu -c 0 Reviewed-by: Larysa Zaremba Signed-off-by: Arkadiusz Kubalewski Tested-by: Pucha Himasekhar Reddy (A Contingent worker at Intel) Signed-off-by: Tony Nguyen Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni

ice: document RDMA devlink parameters

2023-04-18T01:53:13Z

Commit e523af4ee560 ("net/ice: Add support for enable_iwarp and enable_roce devlink param") added support for the enable_roce and enable_iwarp parameters in the ice driver. It didn't document these parameters in the ice devlink documentation file. Add this documentation, including a note about the mutual exclusion between the two modes.

ice: implement direct read for NVM and Shadow RAM regions

2022-12-01T04:54:31Z

Implement the .read handler for the NVM and Shadow RAM regions. This enables user space to read a small chunk of the flash without needing the overhead of creating a full snapshot. Update the documentation for ice to detail which regions have direct read support. Signed-off-by: Jacob Keller Acked-by: Jakub Kicinski Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

ice: Implement devlink port split operations

2022-08-24T15:45:55Z

Allow to configure port split options using the devlink port split interface. Support port splitting only for port 0, as the FW has a predefined set of available port split options for the whole device. Add ice_devlink_port_options_print() function to print the table with all available FW port split options. It will be printed after each port split and unsplit command. Add documentation for devlink port split interface usage for the ice driver.
