doc: generate NIC overview table from ini files Convert the NIC feature table in the overview doc into a set of ini files and add functions into the Sphinx conf.py file to auto-generate them back into an RST table. The reason for doing this is to make it easier for PMD maintainers to update the feature matrix that makes up the table and to avoid frequent and hard to resolve conflicts in doc/guides/nics/overview.rst. A NIC/PMD feature matrix is now an ini file like the following: $ head doc/guides/nics/nic_features/i40e.ini ; ; Features of the i40e network driver. ; [Features] Link status = Y Link status event = Y Rx interrupt = Y Queue start/stop = Y ...

net/enic: support Rx queue interrupts Enable rx queue interrupts if the app requests them, and vNIC has enough interrupt resources. Use interrupt vector 0 for link status and errors. Use vector 1 for rx queue 0, vector 2 for rx queue 1, and so on. So, with n rx queues, vNIC needs to have at n + 1 interrupts. For VIC, enabling and disabling rx queue interrupts are simply mask/unmask operations. VIC's credit based interrupt moderation is not used, as the app wants to explicitly control when to enable/disable interrupts. This version requires MSI-X (vfio-pci). Sharing one interrupt for link status and rx queues is possible, but is rather complex and has no user demands.

net/enic: support TSO The enic TSO implementation requires that the length of the Eth/IP/TCP headers be passed to the NIC.

RSS hash = Y
net/enic: allow to change RSS settings Currently, when more than 1 receive queues are configured, the driver always enables RSS with the driver's own default hash type, key, and RETA. The user is unable to change any of the RSS settings. Address this by implementing the ethdev RSS API as follows. Correctly report the RETA size, key size, and supported hash types through rte_eth_dev_info. During dev_configure(), initialize RSS according to the device's mq_mode and rss_conf. Start with the default RETA, and use the default key unless a custom key is provided. Add the RETA and rss_conf query/set handlers to let the user change RSS settings after the initial configuration. The hardware is able to change hash type, key, and RETA individually. So, the handlers change only the affected settings. Refactor/rename several functions in order to make their intentions clear. For example, remove all traces of RSS from enicpmd_vlan_offload_set() as it is confusing. Signed-off-by: Hyong Youb Kim <hyonkim@cisco.com> Reviewed-by: John Daley <johndale@cisco.com>

net/enic: extend flow director support for 1300 series 1300 series Cisco adapter firmware version 2.0(13) for UCS C-series servers and 3.1(2) for blade servers supports more filtering capabilities. The feature can be enabled via Cisco CIMC or USCM with the 'advanced filters' radio button. When enabled, the these additional flow director modes are available: RTE_ETH_FLOW_NONFRAG_IPV4_OTHER RTE_ETH_FLOW_NONFRAG_IPV4_SCTP RTE_ETH_FLOW_NONFRAG_IPV6_UDP RTE_ETH_FLOW_NONFRAG_IPV6_TCP RTE_ETH_FLOW_NONFRAG_IPV6_SCTP RTE_ETH_FLOW_NONFRAG_IPV6_OTHER Changes: - Detect and set an 'advanced filters' flag dependent on the adapter capability. - Implement RTE_ETH_FILTER_INFO filter op to return the flow types available dependent on whether advanced filters are enabled. - Use a function pointer to select how filters are added to the adapter: copy_fltr_v1() for older firmware/adapters or copy_fltr_v2() for adapters which support advanced filters. - Apply fdir global masks to filters when in advanced filter mode. - Update documentation.
