net/mlx4_en: Datapath structures are allocated per NUMA node

2013-11-08T00:22:48+00:00

For each RX/TX ring and its CQ, allocation is done on a NUMA node that
corresponds to the core that the data structure should operate on.
The assumption is that the core number is reflected by the ring index.
The affected allocations are the ring/CQ data structures,
the TX/RX info and the shared HW/SW buffer.
For TX rings, each core has rings of all UPs.

mlx4: Structures and init/teardown for VF resource quotas

2013-11-04T21:19:07+00:00

This is step #1 for implementing SRIOV resource quotas for VFs.

Quotas are implemented per resource type for VFs and the PF, to prevent
any entity from simply grabbing all the resources for itself and leaving
the other entities unable to obtain such resources.

Resources which are allocated using quotas:  QPs, CQs, SRQs, MPTs, MTTs, MAC,
                                             VLAN, and Counters.

The quota system works as follows:
Each entity (VF or PF) is given a max number of a given resource (its quota),
and a guaranteed minimum number for each resource (starvation prevention).

For QPs, CQs, SRQs, MPTs and MTTs:
50% of the available quantity for the resource is divided equally among
the PF and all the active VFs (i.e., the number of VFs in the mlx4_core module
parameter "num_vfs"). This 50% represents the "guaranteed minimum" pool.
The other 50% is the "free pool", allocated on a first-come-first-serve basis.
For each VF/PF, resources are first allocated from its "guaranteed-minimum"
pool. When that pool is exhausted, the driver attempts to allocate from
the resource "free-pool".

The quota (i.e., max) for the VFs and the PF is:
  The free-pool amount (50% of the real max) + the guaranteed minimum

For MACs:
  Guarantee 2 MACs per VF/PF per port. As a result, since we have only
  128 MACs per port, reduce the allowable number of VFs from 64 to 63.
  Any remaining MACs are put into a free pool.

For VLANs:
  For the PF, the per-port quota is 128 and guarantee is 64
     (to allow the PF to register at least a VLAN per VF in VST mode).
  For the VFs, the per-port quota is 64 and the guarantee is 0.
      We assume that VGT VFs are trusted not to abuse the VLAN resource.

For Counters:
  For all functions (PF and VFs), the quota is 128 and the guarantee is 0.

In this patch, we define the needed structures, which are added to the
resource-tracker struct.  In addition, we do initialization
for the resource quota, and adjust the query_device response to use quotas
rather than resource maxima.

As part of the implementation, we introduce a new field in
mlx4_dev: quotas.  This field holds the resource quotas used
to report maxima to the upper layers (ib_core, via query_device).

The HCA maxima of these values are passed to the VFs (via
QUERY_HCA) so that they may continue to use these in handling
QPs, CQs, SRQs and MPTs.

net/mlx4_en: Use vlan id instead of vlan index for unregistration

2013-11-04T21:19:07+00:00

Use of vlan_index created problems unregistering vlans on guests.

In addition, tools delete vlan by tag, not by index, lets follow that.

net/mlx4_core: Fix reg/unreg vlan/mac to conform to the firmware spec

2013-11-04T21:19:06+00:00

The functions mlx4_register_vlan, mlx4_unregister_vlan, mlx4_register_mac,
mlx4_unregister_mac all made illegal use of the out_param in multifunc mode
to pass the port number. The firmware spec specifies that the port number
should be passed in bits 8..15 of the input-modifier field for ALLOC_RES and
FREE_RES (sections 20.15.1 and 20.15.2).

For MAC register/unregister, this patch contains workarounds so that guests
running previous kernels continue to work on a new Hypervisor, and guests
running the new kernel will continue to work on old hypervisors.

Vlan registeration capability is still not operational in multifunction mode,
since the vlan wrapper functions are not implemented in this patch.

Pull networking changes from David Miller:
 "Noteworthy changes this time around:

   1) Multicast rejoin support for team driver, from Jiri Pirko.

   2) Centralize and simplify TCP RTT measurement handling in order to
      reduce the impact of bad RTO seeding from SYN/ACKs.  Also, when
      both timestamps and local RTT measurements are available prefer
      the later because there are broken middleware devices which
      scramble the timestamp.

      From Yuchung Cheng.

   3) Add TCP_NOTSENT_LOWAT socket option to limit the amount of kernel
      memory consumed to queue up unsend user data.  From Eric Dumazet.

   4) Add a "physical port ID" abstraction for network devices, from
      Jiri Pirko.

   5) Add a "suppress" operation to influence fib_rules lookups, from
      Stefan Tomanek.

   6) Add a networking development FAQ, from Paul Gortmaker.

   7) Extend the information provided by tcp_probe and add ipv6 support,
      from Daniel Borkmann.

   8) Use RCU locking more extensively in openvswitch data paths, from
      Pravin B Shelar.

   9) Add SCTP support to openvswitch, from Joe Stringer.

  10) Add EF10 chip support to SFC driver, from Ben Hutchings.

  11) Add new SYNPROXY netfilter target, from Patrick McHardy.

  12) Compute a rate approximation for sending in TCP sockets, and use
      this to more intelligently coalesce TSO frames.  Furthermore, add
      a new packet scheduler which takes advantage of this estimate when
      available.  From Eric Dumazet.

  13) Allow AF_PACKET fanouts with random selection, from Daniel
      Borkmann.

  14) Add ipv6 support to vxlan driver, from Cong Wang"

IB/mlx4: Add receive flow steering support

2013-08-28T16:53:56+00:00

Implement ib_create_flow() and ib_destroy_flow().

Translate the verbs structures provided by the user to HW structures
and call the MLX4_QP_FLOW_STEERING_ATTACH/DETACH firmware commands.

On the ATTACH command completion, the firmware provides a 64-bit
registration ID, which is placed into struct mlx4_ib_flow that wraps
the instance of struct ib_flow which is retuned to caller.  Later,
this reg ID is used for detaching that flow from the firmware.

net/mlx4_core: Respond to operation request by firmware

2013-07-29T08:12:40+00:00

This commit adds new firmware command and new firmware event.  The firmware
raises the MLX4_EVENT_TYPE_OP_REQUIRED event in order to signal the driver it
needs to perform an administrative operation throughout the MLX4_CMD_GET_OP_REQ
command. At the moment the supported operation is adding/removing multicast
entries which are used by the firmware for handling NCSI traffic in B0
steering mode.

Also, had to swap the order of mlx4_init_mcg_table() and
mlx4_init_eq_table() to make sure that driver will get events only after
resources are initialized to handle it.
