octeontx2 devlink support
|
|
=========================
|
|
|
|
This document describes the devlink features implemented by the ``octeontx2 AF, PF and VF``
|
|
device drivers.
|
|
|
|
Parameters
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
The ``octeontx2 PF and VF`` drivers implement the following driver-specific parameters.
|
|
|
|
.. list-table:: Driver-specific parameters implemented
|
|
:widths: 5 5 5 85
|
|
|
|
* - Name
|
|
- Type
|
|
- Mode
|
|
- Description
|
|
* - ``mcam_count``
|
|
- u16
|
|
- runtime
|
|
- Select number of match CAM entries to be allocated for an interface.
|
|
The same is used for ntuple filters of the interface. Supported by
|
|
PF and VF drivers.
|
|
|
|
The ``octeontx2 AF`` driver implements the following driver-specific parameters.
|
|
|
|
.. list-table:: Driver-specific parameters implemented
|
|
:widths: 5 5 5 85
|
|
|
|
* - Name
|
|
- Type
|
|
- Mode
|
|
- Description
|
|
* - ``dwrr_mtu``
|
|
- u32
|
|
- runtime
|
|
- Use to set the quantum which hardware uses for scheduling among transmit queues.
|
|
Hardware uses weighted DWRR algorithm to schedule among all transmit queues.
|
|
* - ``npc_mcam_high_zone_percent``
|
|
- u8
|
|
- runtime
|
|
- Use to set the number of high priority zone entries in NPC MCAM that can be allocated
|
|
by a user, out of the three priority zone categories high, mid and low.
|
|
* - ``npc_def_rule_cntr``
|
|
- bool
|
|
- runtime
|
|
- Use to enable or disable hit counters for the default rules in NPC MCAM.
|
|
Its not guaranteed that counters gets enabled and mapped to all the default rules,
|
|
since the counters are scarce and driver follows a best effort approach.
|
|
The default rule serves as the primary packet steering rule for a specific PF or VF,
|
|
based on its DMAC address which is installed by AF driver as part of its initialization.
|
|
Sample command to read hit counters for default rule from debugfs is as follows,
|
|
cat /sys/kernel/debug/cn10k/npc/mcam_rules
|
|
* - ``nix_maxlf``
|
|
- u16
|
|
- runtime
|
|
- Use to set the maximum number of LFs in NIX hardware block. This would be useful
|
|
to increase the availability of default resources allocated to enabled LFs like
|
|
MCAM entries for example.
|
|
|
|
The ``octeontx2 PF`` driver implements the following driver-specific parameters.
|
|
|
|
.. list-table:: Driver-specific parameters implemented

|
* - Name

|
- Type
|
|
- Mode
|
|
- Description
|
|
* - ``unicast_filter_count``
|
|
- u8
|
|
- runtime
|
|
- Set the maximum number of unicast filters that can be programmed for
|
|
the device. This can be used to achieve better device resource
|
|
utilization, avoiding over consumption of unused MCAM table entries.
