367b31cd5b net/mlx4: remove scatter mode compilation option
This option both sets the maximum number of segments for Rx/Tx packets and
whether scattered mode is supported at all. This commit removes the latter
as well as configuration file exposure since the most appropriate value
should be decided at run-time.

5d15f04365 net/mlx4: remove useless compilation checks
Verbs support for RSS, inline receive and extended device query calls has
not been optional for a while. Their absence is untested and is therefore
unsupported.

Remove the related compilation checks and assume Mellanox OFED is up to
date, as described in the documentation.

Use this opportunity to remove a few useless data path debugging messages
behind compilation checks on never defined macros.

f2318196c7 net/mlx4: remove limitation on number of instances
The seemingly artificial limitation on the maximum number of instances for
this PMD is an historical leftover that predates its first public release.

It was used as a workaround to support multiple physical ports on a PCI
device exposing a single bus address when mlx4 was implemented directly as
an Ethernet device driver instead of a PCI driver spawning Ethernet
devices.

Getting rid of it simplifies device initialization.

cca9f9099f net/sfc/base: rename API to check Rx scale and hash support
Rename efx_rx_scale_support_get() to efx_rx_scale_default_support_get(),
and efx_rx_hash_support_get() to efx_rx_hash_default_support_get().

All these really report is whether an exclusive RSS context was
successfully acquired at efx_rx_init().

efx_rx_scale_support_get() sounds like it reports whether the device
supports RSS, and whether exclusive or shared contexts are supported,
but it doesn't do that. Renaming it to
efx_rx_scale_default_support_get() helps to reflect that it reports
what RSS support the client gets without trying to allocate RSS
contexts itself.

Also rename efx_rx_scale_support_t to efx_rx_scale_context_type_t, to
make the enum more suitable for specifying the type of an RSS context
to be allocated.

e1c3e30508 net/mlx5: fix probe failure report
The corrupted code doesn't return error when probe function
fails due to error in device mac address getting.
By this way, the probe function may return success even if the
ETH dev is not allocated.

Hence, the probe caller, for example failsafe PMD, fails when it
tries to get ETH dev after the device was plugged out while mlx5
was probing it.

The fix adds error report to the probe caller when priv_get_mac fails
and in all other failure options which are missing it.

By this way, it prevents the unexpected behavior to miss ETH device
after the device was probed successfully.

This bug was already present in the original code taken from mlx4.

70259cbbe3 net/sfc/base: insert filters for encapsulated packets
On Medford, with full-featured firmware running, encapsulated
packets may not be delivered unless filters are inserted for
them, as ordinary filters are not applied to encapsulated
packets. So filters for encapsulated packets need to be
inserted for each class of encapsulated packet. For simplicity,
catch-all filters are always inserted. These may match more
packets than the OS has asked for, but trying to insert more
precise filters increases complexity for little gain.

is the number of characters which would be generated for the

It caused to remain zerod bytes between the failsafe command line
non sub device parameters indicates end of string.

Hence, when rte_kvargs_parse tried to parse all parameters, it
got end of string after the first one and the others weren't parsed.

So, if the mac parameters was the first in command line it was
taken while hotplug_poll was left default, and vice versa.

The fix updates the buffer index by dedicated variable contains
the copy size, by the way validates the comma separation.

9f9bebae55 net/mlx5: don't map doorbell register to write combining
By default, Verbs maps the doorbell register to write combining.
Working with write combining is useful for drivers which use blue flame
for the doorbell write.

Since mlx5 PMD uses only doorbells and write combining mapping requires
an extra memory barrier to flush the doorbell after its write, setting
the mapping to un-cached by default.

Such change is expected to reduce the max and average round trip latency.

The reason for the requirement of a barrier between the txq writes

reads the doorbell record's new value before the txq writes are flushed
to memory.

The current use of rte_wmb is not necessary, and can be replaced by
rte_io_wmb which is more relaxed.

Replacing the rte_wmb is also expected to improve the throughput.

a VMDq pool not a VF. Although it can work on ixgbe as VMDq pool
and VF mean the same thing on ixgbe.

8f5dbd4ed9 net/i40e: new API to add VF MAC address from PF
Currently, rte_eth_dev_mac_addr_add is used by a testpmd CLI
to add a MAC address for VF. But the parameter 'pool' of this
API means the VMDq pool, not VF.
So, it's wrong to use it to add the VF MAC address.

This patch provides a new API that can be used to
add VF MAC address on i40e.
