This patch series adds the iXD driver, which supports the Intel(R)
Control Plane PCI Function on Intel E2100 and later IPUs and FNICs.
It facilitates a centralized control over multiple IDPF PFs/VFs/SFs
exposed by the same card. The reason for the separation is to be able
to offload the control plane to the host different from where the data
plane is running.
This is the first phase in the release of this driver where we implement the
initialization of the core PCI driver. Subsequent phases will implement
advanced features like usage of idpf ethernet aux device, link management,
NVM update via devlink, switchdev port representors, data and exception path,
flow rule programming, etc.
The first phase entails the following aspects:
1. Additional libeth functionalities:
Patches 1-6 introduces additional common library API for drivers to
communicate with the control plane through mailbox communication.
A control queue is a hardware interface which is used by the driver
to interact with other subsystems (like firmware). The library APIs
allow the driver to setup and configure the control queues to send and
receive virtchnl messages. The library has an internal bookkeeping
(XN API) mechanism to keep track of the send messages. It supports both
synchronous as well as asynchronous way of handling the messages. The
library also handles the timeout internally for synchronous messages
using events. This reduces the driver's overhead in handling the timeout
error cases.
The current patch series supports only APIs that are needed for device
initialization. These include APIs in the libeth_pci module:
* Allocating/freeing the DMA memory and mapping the MMIO regions for
BAR0, read/write APIs for drivers to access the MMIO memory
and libeth_cp module:
* Control queue initialization and configuration
* Transport initialization for bookkeeping
* Blocking and asynchronous mailbox transactions
Once the mailbox is initialized, the drivers can send and receive virtchnl
messages to/from the control plane.
2. idpf :
Patches 7-10 refactor the idpf driver to use the libeth APIs for control
queue configuration, virtchnl transaction, device initialization and
reset and adjust related code accordingly.
3. ixd:
Patches 11-14 add the ixd driver and implement multiple pieces of the
initialization flow as follows:
* Add the ability to load
* A reset is issued to ensure a clean device state, followed by
initialization of the mailbox
* Device capabilities:
As part of initialization, the driver has to determine what the device is
capable of (ex. max queues, vports, etc). This information is obtained from
the firmware and stored by the driver.
* Enable initial support for the devlink interface
