      net/mlx4_core: Replace VF zero mac with random mac in mlx4_core · 2b3ddf27
      由 Jack Morgenstein 提交于 
      By design, when no default MAC addresses are set in the Hypervisor for VFs,
the VFs are passed zero-macs. When such a MAC is received by the VF, it
generates a random MAC address and registers that MAC address
with the Hypervisor.

This random mac generation is currently done in the mlx4_en module.
There is a problem, though, if the mlx4_ib module is loaded by a VF before
the mlx4_en module. In this case, for RoCE, mlx4_ib will see the un-replaced
zero-mac and register that zero-mac as part of QP1 initialization.

Having a zero-mac in the port's MAC table creates problems for a
Baseboard Management Console. The BMC occasionally sends packets with a
zero-mac destination MAC. If there is a zero-mac present in the port's
MAC table, the FW will send such BMC packets to the host driver rather than
to the wire, and BMC will stop working.

To address this problem, we move the replacement of zero-mac addresses
with random-mac addresses to procedure mlx4_slave_cap(), which is part of the
driver startup for VFs, and is before activation of mlx4_ib and mlx4_en.
As a result, zero-mac addresses will never be registered in the port MAC table
by the driver.

In addition, when mlx4_en does initialize the net device, it needs to set
the NET_ADDR_RANDOM flag in the netdev structure if the address was
randomly generated. This is done so that udev on the VM does not create
a new device name after each VF probe (VM boot and such). To accomplish this,
we add a per-port flag in mlx4_dev which gets set whenever mlx4_core replaces
a zero-mac with a randomly-generated mac. This flag is examined when mlx4_en
initializes the net-device.

      net/mlx4: Add support for A0 steering · 7d077cd3
      由 Matan Barak 提交于 
      Add the required firmware commands for A0 steering and a way to enable
that. The firmware support focuses on INIT_HCA, QUERY_HCA, QUERY_PORT,
QUERY_DEV_CAP and QUERY_FUNC_CAP commands. Those commands are used
to configure and query the device.

The different A0 DMFS (steering) modes are:

Static - optimized performance, but flow steering rules are
limited. This mode should be choosed explicitly by the user
in order to be used.

Dynamic - this mode should be explicitly choosed by the user.
In this mode, the FW works in optimized steering mode as long as
it can and afterwards automatically drops to classic (full) DMFS.

Disable - this mode should be explicitly choosed by the user.
The user instructs the system not to use optimized steering, even if
the FW supports Dynamic A0 DMFS (and thus will be able to use optimized
steering in Default A0 DMFS mode).

Default - this mode is implicitly choosed. In this mode, if the FW
supports Dynamic A0 DMFS, it'll work in this mode. Otherwise, it'll
work at Disable A0 DMFS mode.

Under SRIOV configuration, when the A0 steering mode is enabled,
older guest VF drivers who aren't using the RX QP allocation flag
(MLX4_RESERVE_A0_QP) will get a QP from the general range and
fail when attempting to register a steering rule. To avoid that,
the PF context behaviour is changed once on A0 static mode, to
require support for the allocation flag in VF drivers too.

In order to enable A0 steering, we use log_num_mgm_entry_size param.
If the value of the parameter is not positive, we treat the absolute
value of log_num_mgm_entry_size as a bit field. Setting bit 2 of this
bit field enables static A0 steering.

      由 Matan Barak 提交于

Since we would like to use it without querying all device capabilities,
extract this part to be a function of its own.

      net/mlx4: Add A0 hybrid steering · d57febe1
      由 Matan Barak 提交于 
      A0 hybrid steering is a form of high performance flow steering.
By using this mode, mlx4 cards use a fast limited table based steering,
in order to enable fast steering of unicast packets to a QP.

In order to implement A0 hybrid steering we allocate resources
from different zones:
(1) General range
(2) Special MAC-assigned QPs [RSS, Raw-Ethernet] each has its own region.

When we create a rss QP or a raw ethernet (A0 steerable and BF ready) QP,
we try hard to allocate the QP from range (2). Otherwise, we try hard not
to allocate from this  range. However, when the system is pushed to its
limits and one needs every resource, the allocator uses every region it can.

Meaning, when we run out of raw-eth qps, the allocator allocates from the
general range (and the special-A0 area is no longer active). If we run out
of RSS qps, the mechanism tries to allocate from the raw-eth QP zone. If that
is also exhausted, the allocator will allocate from the general range
(and the A0 region is no longer active).

Note that if a raw-eth qp is allocated from the general range, it attempts
to allocate the range such that bits 6 and 7 (blueflame bits) in the
QP number are not set.

When the feature is used in SRIOV, the VF has to notify the PF what
kind of QP attributes it needs. In order to do that, along with the
"Eth QP blueflame" bit, we reserve a new "A0 steerable QP". According
to the combination of these bits, the PF tries to allocate a suitable QP.

In order to maintain backward compatibility (with older PFs), the PF
notifies which QP attributes it supports via QUERY_FUNC_CAP command.

      net/mlx4: Change QP allocation scheme · ddae0349
      由 Eugenia Emantayev 提交于 
      When using BF (Blue-Flame), the QPN overrides the VLAN, CV, and SV fields
in the WQE. Thus, BF may only be used for QPNs with bits 6,7 unset.

The current Ethernet driver code reserves a Tx QP range with 256b alignment.

This is wrong because if there are more than 64 Tx QPs in use,
QPNs >= base + 65 will have bits 6/7 set.

This problem is not specific for the Ethernet driver, any entity that
tries to reserve more than 64 BF-enabled QPs should fail. Also, using
ranges is not necessary here and is wasteful.

The new mechanism introduced here will support reservation for
"Eth QPs eligible for BF" for all drivers: bare-metal, multi-PF, and VFs
(when hypervisors support WC in VMs). The flow we use is:

1. In mlx4_en, allocate Tx QPs one by one instead of a range allocation,
   and request "BF enabled QPs" if BF is supported for the function

2. In the ALLOC_RES FW command, change param1 to:
a. param1[23:0]  - number of QPs
b. param1[31-24] - flags controlling QPs reservation

Bit 31 refers to Eth blueflame supported QPs. Those QPs must have
bits 6 and 7 unset in order to be used in Ethernet.

Bits 24-30 of the flags are currently reserved.

When a function tries to allocate a QP, it states the required attributes
for this QP. Those attributes are considered "best-effort". If an attribute,
such as Ethernet BF enabled QP, is a must-have attribute, the function has
to check that attribute is supported before trying to do the allocation.

In a lower layer of the code, mlx4_qp_reserve_range masks out the bits
which are unsupported. If SRIOV is used, the PF validates those attributes
and masks out unsupported attributes as well. In order to notify VFs which
attributes are supported, the VF uses QUERY_FUNC_CAP command. This command's
mailbox is filled by the PF, which notifies which QP allocation attributes
it supports.

      net/mlx4_core: Enable CQE/EQE stride support · 77507aa2
      由 Ido Shamay 提交于 
      This feature is intended for archs having cache line larger then 64B.

Since our CQE/EQEs are generally 64B in those systems, HW will write
twice to the same cache line consecutively, causing pipe locks due to
he hazard prevention mechanism. For elements in a cyclic buffer, writes
are consecutive, so entries smaller than a cache line should be
avoided, especially if they are written at a high rate.

Reduce consecutive writes to same cache line in CQs/EQs, by allowing the
driver to increase the distance between entries so that each will reside
in a different cache line. Until the introduction of this feature, there
were two types of CQE/EQE:

1. 32B stride and context in the [0-31] segment
2. 64B stride and context in the [32-63] segment

This feature introduces two additional types:

3. 128B stride and context in the [0-31] segment (128B cache line)
4. 256B stride and context in the [0-31] segment (256B cache line)

Modify the mlx4_core driver to query the device for the CQE/EQE cache
line stride capability and to enable that capability when the host
cache line size is larger than 64 bytes (supported cache lines are
128B and 256B).

The mlx4 IB driver and libmlx4 need not be aware of this change. The PF
context behaviour is changed to require this change in VF drivers
running on such archs.
