mlx4: Fixing Ethernet unicast packet steering

2011-08-03T23:38:59+00:00

For older FW versions, fixing the usage of per port Mac table.
For each port we must define the base QP number, which is passed
to the HW.
Setting the correct value in SET_PORT FW command to enable the steering.

mlx4_core: Add network flow counters

2011-07-19T04:04:34+00:00

ConnectX devices support a set of flow counters that can be attached
to a set containing one or more QPs.  Each such counter tracks receive
and transmit packets and bytes of these QPs.  This patch queries the
device to check support for counters, handles initialization of the
HCA to enable counters, and initializes a bitmap allocator to control
counter allocations.  Derived from patch by Eli Cohen .

mlx4_core: Read extended capabilities into the flags field

2011-07-19T04:04:32+00:00

Query another dword containing up to 32 extended device capabilities
and merge it into struct mlx4_caps.flags.  Update the code that
handles the current extended device capabilities (e.g UDP RSS, WoL,
vep steering, etc) to use the extended device cap flags field instead
of a field per extended capability.  Initial patch done by Eli Cohen
.

mlx4: use pci_dev->revision

2011-06-28T03:30:47+00:00

Commit 725c89997e03d71b09ea3c17c997da0712b9d835 (mlx4_en: Reporting HW revision
in ethtool -i) added code to read the revision ID from the PCI configuration
register while it's already stored by PCI subsystem in the 'revision' field of
'struct pci_dev'...

While at it, move the code being changed a bit in order to not break the
initialization sequence.

mlx4: Sensing link type at device initialization

2011-04-08T03:36:12+00:00

When bringing the port up, performing a SENSE_PORT command
To try and check to which physical link type (IB or Ethernet) the physical
port is connected.
In case there is no valid link partner, the port will come up as its
supported default.

mlx4: Add blue flame support for kernel consumers

2011-03-23T19:24:23+00:00

Using blue flame can improve latency by allowing the HW to more efficiently
access the WQE. This patch presents two functions that are used to allocate or
release HW resources for using blue flame; the caller need to supply a struct
mlx4_bf object when allocating resources. Consumers that make use of this API
should post doorbells to the UAR object pointed by the initialized struct
mlx4_bf;

mlx4: Add support for promiscuous mode in the new steering model.

2011-03-23T19:24:22+00:00

For Ethernet mode only,
When we want to register QP as promiscuous, it must be added to all the
existing steering entries and also to the default one.
The promiscuous QP might also be on of "real" QPs,
which means we need to monitor every entry to avoid duplicates and ensure
we close an entry when all it has is promiscuous QPs.
Same mechanism both for unicast and multicast.
