Wrt networking there will be 3 flavours of drivers. + +Admin Function driver +--------------------- + +As mentioned above RVU PF0 is called the admin function (AF), this driver +supports resource provisioning and configuration of functional blocks. +Doesn't handle any I/O. It sets up few basic stuff but most of the +funcionality is achieved via configuration requests from PFs and VFs. + +PF/VFs communicates with AF via a shared memory region (mailbox). Upon +receiving requests AF does resource provisioning and other HW configuration. +AF is always attached to host kernel, but PFs and their VFs may be used by host +kernel itself, or attached to VMs or to userspace applications like +DPDK etc. So AF has to handle provisioning/configuration requests sent +by any device from any domain. + +AF driver also interacts with underlying firmware to + - Manage physical ethernet links ie CGX LMACs. + - Retrieve information like speed, duplex, autoneg etc + - Retrieve PHY EEPROM and stats. + - Configure FEC, PAM modes + - etc + +From pure networking side AF driver supports following functionality. + - Map a physical link to a RVU PF to which a netdev is registered. + - Attach NIX and NPA block LFs to RVU PF/VF which provide buffer pools, RQs, SQs + for regular networking functionality. + - Flow control (pause frames) enable/disable/config. + - HW PTP timestamping related config. + - NPC parser profile config, basically how to parse pkt and what info to extract. + - NPC extract profile config, what to extract from the pkt to match data in MCAM entries. + - Manage NPC MCAM entries, upon request can frame and install requested packet forwarding rules. + - Defines receive side scaling (RSS) algorithms. + - Defines segmentation offload algorithms (eg TSO) + - VLAN stripping, capture and insertion config. + - SSO and TIM blocks config which provide packet scheduling support. + - Debugfs support, to check current resource provising, current status of + NPA pools, NIX RQ, SQ and CQs, various stats etc which helps in debugging issues. + - And many more. + +Physical Function driver +------------------------ + +This RVU PF handles IO, is mapped to a physical ethernet link and this +driver registers a netdev. This supports SR-IOV. As said above this driver +communicates with AF with a mailbox. To retrieve information from physical +links this driver talks to AF and AF gets that info from firmware and responds +back ie cannot talk to firmware directly. + +Supports ethtool for configuring links, RSS, queue count, queue size, +flow control, ntuple filters, dump PHY EEPROM, config FEC etc. + +Virtual Function driver +----------------------- + +There are two types VFs, VFs that share the physical link with their parent +SR-IOV PF and the VFs which work in pairs using internal HW loopback channels (LBK). + +Type1: + - These VFs and their parent PF share a physical link and used for outside communication. + - VFs cannot communicate with AF directly, they send mbox message to PF and PF + forwards that to AF. AF after processing, responds back to PF and PF forwards + the reply to VF. + - From functionality point of view there is no difference between PF and VF as same type + HW resources are attached to both. But user would be able to configure few stuff only + from PF as PF is treated as owner/admin of the link. + +Type2: + - RVU PF0 ie admin function creates these VFs and maps them to loopback block's channels. + - A set of two VFs (VF0 & VF1, VF2 & VF3 .. so on) works as a pair ie pkts sent out of + VF0 will be received by VF1 and viceversa. + - These VFs can be used by applications or virtual machines to communicate between them + without sending traffic outside. There is no switch present in HW, hence the support + for loopback VFs. + - These communicate directly with AF (PF0) via mbox. + +Except for the IO channels or links used for packet reception and transmission there is +no other difference between these VF types. AF driver takes care of IO channel mapping, +hence same VF driver works for both types of devices. + +Basic packet flow +================= + +Ingress +------- + +1. CGX LMAC receives packet. +2.

This is +true on chips and configurations where the checksum can be done in hardware. + +Once the controller has finished transmitting the packet, timer will be +scheduled to release the transmit resources. + +Receive Process +--------------- + +When one or more packets are received, an interrupt happens. The interrupts +are not queued, so the driver has to scan all the descriptors in the ring +during the receive process. + +This is based on NAPI, so the interrupt handler signals only if there is work +to be done, and it exits. Then the poll method will be scheduled at some +future point. + +The incoming packets are stored, by the DMA, in a list of pre-allocated socket +buffers in order to avoid the memcpy (zero-copy). + +Interrupt Mitigation +-------------------- + +The driver is able to mitigate the number of its DMA interrupts using NAPI for +the reception on chips older than the 3.50. New chips have an HW RX Watchdog +used for this mitigation. + +Mitigation parameters can be tuned by ethtool. + +WoL +--- + +Wake up on Lan feature through Magic and Unicast frames are supported for the +GMAC, GMAC4/5 and XGMAC core. + +DMA Descriptors +--------------- + +Driver handles both normal and alternate descriptors. The latter has been only +tested on DesignWare(R) Cores Ethernet MAC Universal version 3.41a and later. + +stmmac supports DMA descriptor to operate both in dual buffer (RING) and +linked-list(CHAINED) mode. In RING each descriptor points to two data buffer +pointers whereas in CHAINED mode they point to only one data buffer pointer. +RING mode is the default. + +In CHAINED mode each descriptor will have pointer to next descriptor in the +list, hence creating the explicit chaining in the descriptor itself, whereas +such explicit chaining is not possible in RING mode. + +Extended Descriptors +-------------------- + +The extended descriptors give us information about the Ethernet payload when +it is carrying PTP packets or TCP/UDP/ICMP over IP. These are not available on +GMAC Synopsys(R) chips older than the 3.50. At probe time the driver will +decide if these can be actually used. This support also is mandatory for PTPv2 +because the extra descriptors are used for saving the hardware timestamps and +Extended Status. + +Ethtool Support +--------------- + +Ethtool is supported. For example, driver statistics (including RMON), +internal errors can be taken using:: + + ethtool -S ethX + +Ethtool selftests are also supported. This allows to do some early sanity +checks to the HW using MAC and PHY loopback mechanisms:: + + ethtool -t ethX + +Jumbo and Segmentation Offloading +--------------------------------- + +Jumbo frames are supported and tested for the GMAC. The GSO has been also +added but it's performed in software. LRO is not supported. + +TSO Support +----------- + +TSO (TCP Segmentation Offload) feature is supported by GMAC > 4.x and XGMAC +chip family. When a packet is sent through TCP protocol, the TCP stack ensures +that the SKB provided to the low level driver (stmmac in our case) matches +with the maximum frame len (IP header + TCP header + payload <= 1500 bytes +(for MTU set to 1500)). It means that if an application using TCP want to send +a packet which will have a length (after adding headers) > 1514 the packet +will be split in several TCP packets: The data payload is split and headers +(TCP/IP ..) are added. It is done by software. + +When TSO is enabled, the TCP stack doesn't care about the maximum frame length +and provide SKB packet to stmmac as it is. The GMAC IP will have to perform +the segmentation by it self to match with maximum frame length. + +This feature can be enabled in device tree through ``snps,tso`` entry. + +Energy Efficient Ethernet +------------------------- + +Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) enables IEEE 802.3 MAC sublayer along with a +family of Physical layer to operate in the Low Power Idle (LPI) mode. The EEE +mode supports the IEEE 802.3 MAC operation at 100Mbps, 1000Mbps and 1Gbps. + +The LPI mode allows power saving by switching off parts of the communication +device functionality when there is no data to be transmitted & received. +The system on both the side of the link can disable some functionalities and +save power during the period of low-link utilization. The MAC controls whether +the system should enter or exit the LPI mode and communicate this to PHY. + +As soon as the interface is opened, the driver verifies if the EEE can be +supported. This is done by looking at both the DMA HW capability register and +the PHY devices MCD registers. + +To enter in TX LPI mode the driver needs to have a software timer that enable +and disable the LPI mode when there is nothing to be transmitted. + +Precision Time Protocol (PTP) +----------------------------- + +The driver supports the IEEE 1588-2002, Precision Time Protocol (PTP), which +enables precise synchronization of clocks in measurement and control systems +implemented with technologies such as network communication. + +In addition to the basic timestamp features mentioned in IEEE 1588-2002 +Timestamps, new GMAC cores support the advanced timestamp features. +IEEE 1588-2008 can be enabled when configuring the Kernel. + +SGMII/RGMII Support +------------------- + +New GMAC devices provide own way to manage RGMII/SGMII. This information is +available at run-time by looking at the HW capability register. This means +that the stmmac can manage auto-negotiation and link status w/o using the +PHYLIB stuff. In fact, the HW provides a subset of extended registers to +restart the ANE, verify Full/Half duplex mode and Speed.

SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0 + +============= +Devlink DPIPE +============= + +Background +========== + +While performing the hardware offloading process, much of the hardware +specifics cannot be presented. These details are useful for debugging, and +``devlink-dpipe`` provides a standardized way to provide visibility into the +offloading process. + +For example, the routing longest prefix match (LPM) algorithm used by the +Linux kernel may differ from the hardware implementation. The pipeline debug +API (DPIPE) is aimed at providing the user visibility into the ASIC's +pipeline in a generic way. + +The hardware offload process is expected to be done in a way that the user +should not be able to distinguish between the hardware vs. software +implementation. In this process, hardware specifics are neglected. In +reality those details can have lots of meaning and should be exposed in some +standard way. + +This problem is made even more complex when one wishes to offload the +control path of the whole networking stack to a switch ASIC. Due to +differences in the hardware and software models some processes cannot be +represented correctly. + +One example is the kernel's LPM algorithm which in many cases differs +greatly to the hardware implementation. The configuration API is the same, +but one cannot rely on the Forward Information Base (FIB) to look like the +Level Path Compression trie (LPC-trie) in hardware. + +In many situations trying to analyze systems failure solely based on the +kernel's dump may not be enough. By combining this data with complementary +information about the underlying hardware, this debugging can be made +easier; additionally, the information can be useful when debugging +performance issues. + +Overview +======== + +The ``devlink-dpipe`` interface closes this gap. The hardware's pipeline is +modeled as a graph of match/action tables. Each table represents a specific +hardware block. This model is not new, first being used by the P4 language. + +Traditionally it has been used as an alternative model for hardware +configuration, but the ``devlink-dpipe`` interface uses it for visibility +purposes as a standard complementary tool. The system's view from +``devlink-dpipe`` should change according to the changes done by the +standard configuration tools. + +For example, it’s quiet common to implement Access Control Lists (ACL) +using Ternary Content Addressable Memory (TCAM). The TCAM memory can be +divided into TCAM regions. Complex TC filters can have multiple rules with +different priorities and different lookup keys. On the other hand hardware +TCAM regions have a predefined lookup key. Offloading the TC filter rules +using TCAM engine can result in multiple TCAM regions being interconnected +in a chain (which may affect the data path latency). In response to a new TC +filter new tables should be created describing those regions. + +Model +===== + +The ``DPIPE`` model introduces several objects: + + * headers + * tables + * entries + +A ``header`` describes packet formats and provides names for fields within +the packet. A ``table`` describes hardware blocks. An ``entry`` describes +the actual content of a specific table. + +The hardware pipeline is not port specific, but rather describes the whole +ASIC. Thus it is tied to the top of the ``devlink`` infrastructure. + +Drivers can register and unregister tables at run time, in order to support +dynamic behavior. This dynamic behavior is mandatory for describing hardware +blocks like TCAM regions which can be allocated and freed dynamically. + +``devlink-dpipe`` generally is not intended for configuration. The exception +is hardware counting for a specific table. + +The following commands are used to obtain the ``dpipe`` objects from +userspace: + + * ``table_get``: Receive a table's description. + * ``headers_get``: Receive a device's supported headers. + * ``entries_get``: Receive a table's current entries. + * ``counters_set``: Enable or disable counters on a table. + +Table +----- + +The driver should implement the following operations for each table: + + * ``matches_dump``: Dump the supported matches. + * ``actions_dump``: Dump the supported actions. + * ``entries_dump``: Dump the actual content of the table. + * ``counters_set_update``: Synchronize hardware with counters enabled or + disabled. + +Header/Field +------------ + +In a similar way to P4 headers and fields are used to describe a table's +behavior. There is a slight difference between the standard protocol headers +and specific ASIC metadata. The protocol headers should be declared in the +``devlink`` core API. On the other hand ASIC meta data is driver specific +and should be defined in the driver. Additionally, each driver-specific +devlink documentation file should document the driver-specific ``dpipe`` +headers it implements. The headers and fields are identified by enumeration. + +In order to provide further visibility some ASIC metadata fields could be +mapped to kernel objects. For example, internal router interface indexes can +be directly mapped to the net device ifindex. FIB table indexes used by +different Virtual Routing and Forwarding (VRF) tables can be mapped to +internal routing table indexes. + +Match +----- + +Matches are kept primitive and close to hardware operation. Match types like +LPM are not supported due to the fact that this is exactly a process we wish +to describe in full detail. Example of matches: + + * ``field_exact``: Exact match on a specific field. + * ``field_exact_mask``: Exact match on a specific field after masking. + * ``field_range``: Match on a specific range. + +The id's of the header and the field should be specified in order to +identify the specific field. Furthermore, the header index should be +specified in order to distinguish multiple headers of the same type in a +packet (tunneling). + +Action +------ + +Similar to match, the actions are kept primitive and close to hardware +operation. For example: + + * ``field_modify``: Modify the field value. + * ``field_inc``: Increment the field value. + * ``push_header``: Add a header. + * ``pop_header``: Remove a header. + +Entry +----- + +Entries of a specific table can be dumped on demand. Each eentry is +identified with an index and its properties are described by a list of +match/action values and specific counter. By dumping the tables content the +interactions between tables can be resolved. + +Abstraction Example +=================== + +The following is an example of the abstraction model of the L3 part of +Mellanox Spectrum ASIC. The blocks are described in the order they appear in +the pipeline. The table sizes in the following examples are not real +hardware sizes and are provided for demonstration purposes. + +LPM +--- + +The LPM algorithm can be implemented as a list of hash tables. Each hash +table contains routes with the same prefix length. The root of the list is +/32, and in case of a miss the hardware will continue to the next hash +table. The depth of the search will affect the data path latency. + +In case of a hit the entry contains information about the next stage of the +pipeline which resolves the MAC address. The next stage can be either local +host table for directly connected routes, or adjacency table for next-hops. +The ``meta.lpm_prefix`` field is used to connect two LPM tables. + +.. code:: + + table lpm_prefix_16 { + size: 4096, + counters_enabled: true, + match: { meta.vr_id: exact, + ipv4.dst_addr: exact_mask, + ipv6.dst_addr: exact_mask, + meta.lpm_prefix: exact }, + action: { meta.adj_index: set, + meta.adj_group_size: set, + meta.rif_port: set, + meta.lpm_prefix: set }, + } + +Local Host +---------- + +In the case of local routes the LPM lookup already resolves the egress +router interface (RIF), yet the exact MAC address is not known. The local +host table is a hash table combining the output interface id with +destination IP address as a key. The result is the MAC address. + +.. code:: + + table local_host { + size: 4096, + counters_enabled: true, + match: { meta.rif_port: exact, + ipv4.dst_addr: exact}, + action: { ethernet.daddr: set } + } + +Adjacency +--------- + +In case of remote routes this table does the ECMP. The LPM lookup results in +ECMP group size and index that serves as a global offset into this table. +Concurrently a hash of the packet is generated.

For these attributes, the "true" value should be passed as +number 1 but any non-zero value should be understood as "true" by recipient. +In the tables below, "bool" denotes NLA_U8 attributes interpreted in this way. + +In the message structure descriptions below, if an attribute name is suffixed +with "+", parent nest can contain multiple attributes of the same type. This +implements an array of entries. + + +Request header +============== + +Each request or reply message contains a nested attribute with common header. +Structure of this header is + + ============================== ====== ============================= + ``ETHTOOL_A_HEADER_DEV_INDEX`` u32 device ifindex + ``ETHTOOL_A_HEADER_DEV_NAME`` string device name + ``ETHTOOL_A_HEADER_FLAGS`` u32 flags common for all requests + ============================== ====== ============================= + +``ETHTOOL_A_HEADER_DEV_INDEX`` and ``ETHTOOL_A_HEADER_DEV_NAME`` identify the +device message relates to. One of them is sufficient in requests, if both are +used, they must identify the same device. Some requests, e.g. global string +sets, do not require device identification. Most ``GET`` requests also allow +dump requests without device identification to query the same information for +all devices providing it (each device in a separate message). + +``ETHTOOL_A_HEADER_FLAGS`` is a bitmap of request flags common for all request +types. The interpretation of these flags is the same for all request types but +the flags may not apply to requests. Recognized flags are: + + ================================= =================================== + ``ETHTOOL_FLAG_COMPACT_BITSETS`` use compact format bitsets in reply + ``ETHTOOL_FLAG_OMIT_REPLY`` omit optional reply (_SET and _ACT) + ================================= =================================== + +New request flags should follow the general idea that if the flag is not set, +the behaviour is backward compatible, i.e. requests from old clients not aware +of the flag should be interpreted the way the client expects. A client must +not set flags it does not understand. + + +Bit sets +======== + +For short bitmaps of (reasonably) fixed length, standard ``NLA_BITFIELD32`` +type is used. For arbitrary length bitmaps, ethtool netlink uses a nested +attribute with contents of one of two forms: compact (two binary bitmaps +representing bit values and mask of affected bits) and bit-by-bit (list of +bits identified by either index or name). + +Verbose (bit-by-bit) bitsets allow sending symbolic names for bits together +with their values which saves a round trip (when the bitset is passed in a +request) or at least a second request (when the bitset is in a reply). This is +useful for one shot applications like traditional ethtool command. On the +other hand, long running applications like ethtool monitor (displaying +notifications) or network management daemons may prefer fetching the names +only once and using compact form to save message size. Notifications from +ethtool netlink interface always use compact form for bitsets. + +A bitset can represent either a value/mask pair (``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_NOMASK`` +not set) or a single bitmap (``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_NOMASK`` set). In requests +modifying a bitmap, the former changes the bit set in mask to values set in +value and preserves the rest; the latter sets the bits set in the bitmap and +clears the rest. + +Compact form: nested (bitset) atrribute contents: + + ============================ ====== ============================ + ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_NOMASK`` flag no mask, only a list + ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_SIZE`` u32 number of significant bits + ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_VALUE`` binary bitmap of bit values + ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_MASK`` binary bitmap of valid bits + ============================ ====== ============================ + +Value and mask must have length at least ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_SIZE`` bits +rounded up to a multiple of 32 bits. They consist of 32-bit words in host byte +order, words ordered from least significant to most significant (i.e. the same +way as bitmaps are passed with ioctl interface). + +For compact form, ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_SIZE`` and ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_VALUE`` are +mandatory. ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_MASK`` attribute is mandatory if +``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_NOMASK`` is not set (bitset represents a value/mask pair); +if ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_NOMASK`` is not set, ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_MASK`` is not +allowed (bitset represents a single bitmap. + +Kernel bit set length may differ from userspace length if older application is +used on newer kernel or vice versa. If userspace bitmap is longer, an error is +issued only if the request actually tries to set values of some bits not +recognized by kernel. + +Bit-by-bit form: nested (bitset) attribute contents: + + +------------------------------------+--------+-----------------------------+ + | ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_NOMASK`` | flag | no mask, only a list | + +------------------------------------+--------+-----------------------------+ + | ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_SIZE`` | u32 | number of significant bits | + +------------------------------------+--------+-----------------------------+ + | ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BITS`` | nested | array of bits | + +-+----------------------------------+--------+-----------------------------+ + | | ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BITS_BIT+`` | nested | one bit | + +-+-+--------------------------------+--------+-----------------------------+ + | | | ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BIT_INDEX`` | u32 | bit index (0 for LSB) | + +-+-+--------------------------------+--------+-----------------------------+ + | | | ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BIT_NAME`` | string | bit name | + +-+-+--------------------------------+--------+-----------------------------+ + | | | ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BIT_VALUE`` | flag | present if bit is set | + +-+-+--------------------------------+--------+-----------------------------+ + +Bit size is optional for bit-by-bit form. ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BITS`` nest can +only contain ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BITS_BIT`` attributes but there can be an +arbitrary number of them. A bit may be identified by its index or by its +name. When used in requests, listed bits are set to 0 or 1 according to +``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BIT_VALUE``, the rest is preserved. A request fails if +index exceeds kernel bit length or if name is not recognized. + +When ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_NOMASK`` flag is present, bitset is interpreted as +a simple bitmap. ``ETHTOOL_A_BITSET_BIT_VALUE`` attributes are not used in +such case. Such bitset represents a bitmap with listed bits set and the rest +zero. + +In requests, application can use either form. Form used by kernel in reply is +determined by ``ETHTOOL_FLAG_COMPACT_BITSETS`` flag in flags field of request +header.

They usually do not contain any message specific attributes. +Kernel replies with corresponding "GET_REPLY" message. For most types, ``GET`` +request with ``NLM_F_DUMP`` and no device identification can be used to query +the information for all devices supporting the request. + +If the data can be also modified, corresponding ``SET`` message with the same +layout as corresponding ``GET_REPLY`` is used to request changes. Only +attributes where a change is requested are included in such request (also, not +all attributes may be changed). Replies to most ``SET`` request consist only +of error code and extack; if kernel provides additional data, it is sent in +the form of corresponding ``SET_REPLY`` message which can be suppressed by +setting ``ETHTOOL_FLAG_OMIT_REPLY`` flag in request header. + +Data modification also triggers sending a ``NTF`` message with a notification. +These usually bear only a subset of attributes which was affected by the +change. The same notification is issued if the data is modified using other +means (mostly ioctl ethtool interface). Unlike notifications from ethtool +netlink code which are only sent if something actually changed, notifications +triggered by ioctl interface may be sent even if the request did not actually +change any data. + +``ACT`` messages request kernel (driver) to perform a specific action. If some +information is reported by kernel (which can be suppressed by setting +``ETHTOOL_FLAG_OMIT_REPLY`` flag in request header), the reply takes form of +an ``ACT_REPLY`` message.
