In our PAC N3000 Card, we have 6 PCIe MSI-X vectors, for example:
0~3 for AFU
4 for Port
6 for FME
FME (FPGA Management Engine ) will manage all resources in FPGA, like partition
reconfiguration, Power manager, thermal, Error reporting.
Port is a bridge between FME and AFU.
AFU is the accelerator unit which for customers logic.
So, we reserve some MSI-X vectors for end-user/customers to use the AFU, and
end-user/customers can use
the AFU for networking acceleration or other acceleration.
The DPDK existing API like rte_intr_enable()->vfio_enable_msix() will bind all
of the vectors at the same time and those vectors will register into one evenfd
and one interrupt handler function.
That cannot satisfy our design. we hope that, each MSI-X vector bind into VFIO
and register the interrupt handler function separately. Because the reserve
vectors like
0~3 vectors for AFU, we don't know what exact usage for the end-user/customers
in AFU logic, so it had better let them bind VFIO and register interrupt
handler themselves.
One suggestion is we expand the vfio_enable_msix() function, let the caller to
specify the start vector and the numbers of vectors to bind the VFIO.
static int
vfio_enable_msix(const struct rte_intr_handle *intr_handle, int start, int
count) {
...
irq_set->count = count;
irq_set->start = start;
...
return 0;
}
