The normal operation of devices with copper phys depends on the
initialization and configuration of the PHY chip. The task of
driving the PHY chip is implemented in some firmware versions.
If firmware supports the phy driver, it will report a capability
flag to driver in probing process. The driver determines whether
to support PF device with copper phys based on the capability bit.
If supported, the driver set a flag indicating that the firmware
takes over the PHY, and then the firmware initializes the PHY.
This patch supports the query of link status and link info, and
existing basic features for PF device with copper phys.

"show port cap all|<port_id>" was to display offload configuration of
port(s).
But later two other commands added to show same information in more
accurate way:
show port (port_id) rx_offload configuration
show port (port_id) tx_offload configuration
These new commands can both show port and queue level configuration,
also with their capabilities counterparts easier to see offload
capability and configuration of the port in similar syntax.
So the functionality is duplicated and removing this version, to favor
the new commands.
Another problem with this command is it requires each new offload to be
added into the function to display them, and there were missing offloads
that are not displayed, this requirement for sure will create gaps by
time as new offloads added.

When testing high performance numbers, it is often that CPU performance

to resend the same mbuf to the line multiple times.

Add support for new MODIFY_FIELD action to the Mellanox PMD.
This is the generic API that allows to manipulate any packet
header field by copying data from another packet field or
mark, metadata, tag, or immediate value (or pointer to it).
Since the API is generic and covers a lot of action under its
umbrella it makes sense to implement all the mechanics gradually
in order to move to this API for any packet field manipulations
in the future. This is the first step of RTE flows consolidation.
The modify field RTE flow action supports three operations: set,
add and sub. This patch brings to live only the "set" operation.
Support is provided for any packet header field as well as
meta/tag/mark and immediate value can be used as a source.
There are few limitations for this first version of API support:
- encapsulation levels are not supported, just outermost header
can be manipulated for now.
- offsets can only be 4-bytes aligned: 32, 64 and 96 for IPv6.
- the special ITEM_START ID is not supported as we do not allow

To verify that all DPDK headers are ok for inclusion directly in a C file,
and are not missing any other pre-requisite headers, we can auto-generate
for each header an empty C file that includes that header. Compiling these
files will throw errors if any header has unmet dependencies.
For some libraries, there may be some header files which are not for direct
inclusion, but rather are to be included via other header files. To allow
later checking of these files for missing includes, we separate out the
indirect include files from the direct ones.
To ensure ongoing compliance, we enable this build test as part of the
default x86 build in "test-meson-builds.sh".

The python script introduced in this patch runs the crypto performance
test application for various test cases, and graphs the results.
Test cases are defined in config JSON files, this is where parameters
are specified for each test. Currently there are various test cases for
devices crypto_qat, crypto_aesni_mb and crypto_gcm. Tests for the
ptest types Throughput and Latency are supported for each.
The results of each test case are graphed and saved in PDFs (one PDF for
each test suite graph type, with all test cases).
The graphs output include various grouped barcharts for throughput
tests, and histogram and boxplot graphs are used for latency tests.
Documentation is added to outline the configuration and usage for the
script.
Usage:
A JSON config file must be specified when running the script,
"./dpdk-graph-crypto-perf <config_file>"
The script uses the installed app by default (from ninja install).
Alternatively we can pass path to app by
"-f <rel_path>/<build_dir>/app/dpdk-test-crypto-perf"
All device test suites are run by default.
Alternatively we can specify by adding arguments,
"-t latency" - to run latency test suite only
"-t throughput latency"
- to run both throughput and latency test suites
A directory can be specified for all output files,
or the script directory is used by default.

Add a simple on/off switch that will enable saving power when no
packets are arriving. It is based on counting the number of empty
polls and, when the number reaches a certain threshold, entering an
architecture-defined optimized power state that will either wait
until a TSC timestamp expires, or when packets arrive.
This API mandates a core-to-single-queue mapping (that is, multiple
queued per device are supported, but they have to be polled on different
cores).
This design is using PMD RX callbacks.
1. UMWAIT/UMONITOR:
When a certain threshold of empty polls is reached, the core will go
into a power optimized sleep while waiting on an address of next RX
descriptor to be written to.
2. TPAUSE/Pause instruction
This method uses the pause (or TPAUSE, if available) instruction to
avoid busy polling.

Implement the generic modify flow API to allow manipulations on
an arbitrary header field (as well as mark, metadata or tag) using
data from another field or a user-specified value.
This generic modify mechanism removes the necessity to implement
a separate RTE Flow action every time we need to modify a new packet
field in the future.
Supported operation are:
- set: copy data from source to destination.
- add: integer addition, stores the result in destination.
- sub: integer subtraction, stores the result in destination.
The field ID is used to specify the desired source/destination packet
field in order to simplify the API for various encapsulation models.
Specifying the packet field ID with the needed encapsulation level
is able to quickly get a packet field for any inner packet header.
Alternatively, the special ID (ITEM_START) can be used to point to
the very beginning of a packet. This ID in conjunction with the
offset parameter provides great flexibility to copy/modify any part of
a packet as needed.
The number of bits to use from a source as well as the offset can be
be specified to allow a partial copy or dividing a big packet field
into multiple small fields (e.g. copying 128 bits of IPv6 to 4 tags).
An immediate value (or a pointer to it) can be specified instead of the
level and the offset for the special FIELD_VALUE ID (or FIELD_POINTER).
Can be used as a source only.

Latest VIC adapters support 64B CQ (completion queue) entries as well
as 16B entries available on all VIC models. 64B entries can greatly
reduce cache contention (CPU stall cycles) between DMA writes (Rx
packet descriptors) and polling CPU. The effect is very noticeable on
Intel platforms with DDIO. As most UCS servers are based on Intel
platforms, enable and use 64B CQ entries by default, if
available. Also, add devarg 'cq64' so the user can explicitly disable
64B CQ.

2. Get the legacy doorbell size from firmware. Legacy doorbell support

4. Use "chip_num" returned by firmware. The "chip_num" field in the

Async enqueue offloads large copies to DMA devices, and small copies
are still performed by the CPU. However, it requires users to get
enqueue completed packets by rte_vhost_poll_enqueue_completed(), even
if they are completed by the CPU when rte_vhost_submit_enqueue_burst()
returns. This design incurs extra overheads of tracking completed
pktmbufs and function calls, thus degrading performance on small packets.
This patch enhances async enqueue for small packets by enabling

number of QPs and cores are parsed. The QPs are distributed as evenly
as possible on the cores. The regex device and all QPs are initialized.
The data file is read and saved in a buffer. Then for each core the

One of the ways to increase the insertion/deletion rate is to use
multi-threaded insertion/deletion. Thus it's needed to have support
for testing and measure those rates using flow-perf application.
Now we generate cores and distribute all flows to those cores,
and start inserting/deleting in parallel.
The app now receive the cores count to use from command line option,
then it distribute the rte_flow rules evenly between the cores, and
start inserting/deleting. Each worker will report it's own results,
and in the end the MAIN worker will report the total results for all
cores.
The total results are calculated using RULES_COUNT divided over
max time used between all cores.
Also this touches the memory area, since inserting using multiple cores
in same time the pre solution for memory is not valid, thus now we save
memory before and after each allocation for all cores. In the end we
pick the min pre memory and the max post memory from all cores.
The difference between those values represent the total memory consumed
by the total rte_flow rules from all cores, and then report the total
size of single rte_flow in byte for each port.

Proposing to replace protocol header fields in the ``rte_flow_item_*``
structures with the protocol structs.
This is both for documenting the intention and to be sure
``rte_flow_item_*`` always starts with complete protocol header.
Change will be done in two steps, at first step in v21.02 release,
protocol header struct will be added as union, for example:
Current ``struct rte_flow_item_eth``,
struct rte_flow_item_eth {
struct rte_ether_addr dst;
struct rte_ether_addr src;
rte_be16_t type;
uint32_t has_vlan:1;
uint32_t reserved:31;
}
will become in v21.02:
__extension__
struct rte_flow_item_eth {
union {
struct {
struct rte_ether_addr dst;
struct rte_ether_addr src;
rte_be16_t type;
};
struct rte_ether_hdr hdr;
};
uint32_t has_vlan:1;
uint32_t reserved:31;
}
After this point usage should switch to 'hdr' struct.
And in the second step, in the v21.11 LTS release the protocol fields
will be removed, and the struct will become:
struct rte_flow_item_eth {
struct rte_ether_hdr hdr;
uint32_t has_vlan:1;
uint32_t reserved:31;
}
Already many ``rte_flow_item_*`` structures implemented to have protocol
struct, target is convert all to this usage.

Currently, the Linux GSG mentions UIO drivers first. This is not ideal
as for the longest time, the recommended way to use DPDK with hardware
devices has been to use VFIO driver.

There is a discrepancy between ethdev API and flow rules guide
regarding flow rules maintenance after port stop.
librte_ethdev.h declares that flow rules will not be stored in PMD
after port stop:
>>>>> Quote start
Please note that some configuration is not stored between calls to
rte_eth_dev_stop()/rte_eth_dev_start(). The following configuration
will be retained:
- MTU
- flow control settings
- receive mode configuration (promiscuous mode, all-multicast mode,
hardware checksum mode, RSS/VMDQ settings etc.)
- VLAN filtering configuration
- default MAC address
- MAC addresses supplied to MAC address array
- flow director filtering mode (but not filtering rules)
- NIC queue statistics mappings
<<<< Quote end
PMD cannot always correctly restore flow rules after port stop / port
start because application may alter port configuration after port stop
without PMD knowledge about undergoing changes. Consider the
following scenario:
application configures 2 queues 0 and 1 and creates a flow rule with
'queue index 1' action. After that application stops the port and
removes queue 1.
Although PMD can implement flow rule shadow copy to be used for
restore after port start, attempt to restore flow rule from shadow
will fail in example above and PMD could not notify application about
that failure. As the result, flow rules map in HW will differ from
what application expects. In addition, flow rules shadow copy used
for port start restore consumes considerable amount of system memory,
especially in systems with millions of flow rules.

* allows setting different page sizes
recent kernels support multiple sizes.

* can display current hugepage settings.

mlx5 PMD refuses to update link state if link speed is defined but
status is down or if link speed is undefined but status is up, even if
the ioctl() succeeded.
This prevents application to detect link up/down event, especially when
the link speed is not correctly detected.
Commit [1] allowed returning unknown link speed, so now PMD allows
the return of unknown link speed in the above case.
Due to some old kernel driver bug, link speed wasn't detected properly.

Currently, when building sphinx documentation, the build will only
succeed if being run from the build system, because the conf.py script
expects DPDK_VERSION environment variable to be set, and crashes if it
is not.
However, there are certain external tools (such as sphinx documentation
preview extensions for certain IDE's) that use live preview and thus
rely on running their own sphinx commands. In these cases, it is useful
to permit building sphinx documentation without specifying the
DPDK_VERSION environment variable. The version string is the only thing
preventing manual sphinx build commands from working.
Fix the conf.py to use "None" as a version string in cases when
DPDK_VERSION environment variable is not set.

Currently, flow-perf measures the performance of
rule installation/deletion operations by breaking
down the entire number of operations into windows
of fixed size (i.e., 100000 operations per window).
Then, flow-perf measures the total time per window
and computes an average time across all windows.
This commit allows flow-perf users to configure
the number of rules per window instead of using
a fixed pre-compiled value. To do so, users must
pass --rules-batch=N, where N is the number of
rules per window (or batch).
For consistency reasons, flow_count variable is
now renamed to rules_count. This variable is the
total number of rules to be installed/deleted.
For example, if a user wants to measure how much
time it takes to install 1M rules in a certain NIC,
he/she can input:
--rules-count=1000000
This way flow-perf will break down 1M flow rules into
10 batches of 100k flow rules each (this is the default
batch size) and compute an average across the 10
measurements.
Now, if the user modifies the number of rules per
batch as follows:
--rules-count=1000000 --rules-batch=500000
then flow-perf will break down 1M flow rules into
2 batches of 500k flow rules each and compute the
average across the 2 measurements.
Finally, this commit also adds default variables
to the usage function instead of hardcoded values.
