From a59618b98543248adae7e77d60f67974ca243319 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pawel Kaminski Date: Fri, 7 Jun 2024 12:43:49 +0200 Subject: ice: Add support for devlink local_forwarding param 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 --- drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_common.c | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) (limited to 'drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_common.c') diff --git a/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_common.c b/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_common.c index e311a41a74fa..9cd649053ef8 100644 --- a/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_common.c +++ b/drivers/net/ethernet/intel/ice/ice_common.c @@ -1086,6 +1086,7 @@ int ice_init_hw(struct ice_hw *hw) goto err_unroll_cqinit; } + hw->port_info->local_fwd_mode = ICE_LOCAL_FWD_MODE_ENABLED; /* set the back pointer to HW */ hw->port_info->hw = hw; @@ -3071,6 +3072,9 @@ ice_aq_set_port_params(struct ice_port_info *pi, bool double_vlan, cmd_flags |= ICE_AQC_SET_P_PARAMS_DOUBLE_VLAN_ENA; cmd->cmd_flags = cpu_to_le16(cmd_flags); + cmd->local_fwd_mode = pi->local_fwd_mode | + ICE_AQC_SET_P_PARAMS_LOCAL_FWD_MODE_VALID; + return ice_aq_send_cmd(hw, &desc, NULL, 0, cd); } -- cgit
