The command "meson build" causes a deprecation warning with meson 0.64.0.
WARNING: Running the setup command as `meson [options]` instead of
`meson setup [options]` is ambiguous and deprecated.
Therefore fix the examples in the documentation.

MVNETA Poll Mode Driver
|
|
=======================
|
|
|
|
The MVNETA PMD (**librte_net_mvneta**) provides poll mode driver support
|
|
for the Marvell NETA 1/2.5 Gbps adapter.
|
|
|
|
Detailed information about SoCs that use PPv2 can be obtained here:
|
|
|
|
* https://www.marvell.com/embedded-processors/armada-3700/
|
|
|
|
|
|
Features
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
Features of the MVNETA PMD are:
|
|
|
|
- Start/stop
|
|
- tx/rx_queue_setup
|
|
- tx/rx_burst
|
|
- Speed capabilities
|
|
- Jumbo frame
|
|
- MTU update
|
|
- Promiscuous mode
|
|
- Unicast MAC filter
|
|
- Link status
|
|
- CRC offload
|
|
- L3 checksum offload
|
|
- L4 checksum offload
|
|
- Packet type parsing
|
|
- Basic stats
|
|
|
|
|
|
Limitations
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
- Flushing vlans added for filtering is not possible due to MUSDK missing
|
|
functionality. Current workaround is to reset board so that NETA has a
|
|
chance to start in a sane state.
|
|
|
|
Prerequisites
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
- Custom Linux Kernel sources
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/MarvellEmbeddedProcessors/linux-marvell.git -b linux-4.4.120-armada-18.09
|
|
|
|
|
|
- MUSDK (Marvell User-Space SDK) sources
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/MarvellEmbeddedProcessors/musdk-marvell.git -b musdk-release-SDK-10.3.5.0-PR2
|
|
|
|
MUSDK is a light-weight library that provides direct access to Marvell's
|
|
NETA. Alternatively prebuilt MUSDK library can be
|
|
requested from `Marvell Extranet <https://extranet.marvell.com>`_. Once
|
|
approval has been granted, library can be found by typing ``musdk`` in
|
|
the search box.
|
|
|
|
MUSDK must be configured with the following features:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
--enable-pp2=no --enable-neta
|
|
|
|
- DPDK environment
|
|
|
|
Follow the DPDK :ref:`Getting Started Guide for Linux <linux_gsg>` to setup
|
|
DPDK environment.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Runtime options
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
The following ``devargs`` options can be enabled at runtime. They must
|
|
be passed as part of EAL arguments.
|
|
|
|
- ``iface`` (mandatory, with no default value)
|
|
|
|
The name of port (owned by MUSDK) that should be enabled in DPDK.
|
|
This options can be repeated resulting in a list of ports to be
|
|
enabled. For instance below will enable ``eth0`` and ``eth1`` ports.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
./dpdk-testpmd --vdev=net_mvneta,iface=eth0,iface=eth1 \
|
|
-c 3 -- -i --p 3 -a
|
|
|
|
|
|
Building MUSDK
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
Driver needs precompiled MUSDK library during compilation.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
export CROSS_COMPILE=<toolchain>/bin/aarch64-linux-gnu-
|
|
./bootstrap
|
|
./configure --host=aarch64-linux-gnu --enable-pp2=no --enable-neta
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
MUSDK will be installed to `usr/local` under current directory.
|
|
For the detailed build instructions please consult ``doc/musdk_get_started.txt``.
|
|
|
|
Building DPDK
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
Add path to libmusdk.pc in PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=$<musdk_install_dir>/lib/pkgconfig/:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH
|
|
meson setup build --cross-file config/arm/arm64_armada_linux_gcc
|
|
ninja -C build
|
|
|
|
|
|
Usage Example
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
MVNETA PMD requires extra out of tree kernel modules to function properly.
|
|
`musdk_uio` and `mv_neta_uio` sources are part of the MUSDK. Please consult
|
|
``doc/musdk_get_started.txt`` for the detailed build instructions.
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
insmod musdk_uio.ko
|
|
insmod mv_neta_uio.ko
|
|
|
|
Additionally interfaces used by DPDK application need to be put up:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
ip link set eth0 up
|
|
ip link set eth1 up
|
|
|
|
In order to run testpmd example application following command can be used:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
./dpdk-testpmd --vdev=net_mvneta,iface=eth0,iface=eth1 -c 3 -- \
|
|
-i --p 3 -a --txd 256 --rxd 128 --rxq=1 --txq=1 --nb-cores=1
|
|
|
|
|
|
In order to run l2fwd example application following command can be used:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: console
|
|
|
|
./dpdk-l2fwd --vdev=net_mvneta,iface=eth0,iface=eth1 -c 3 -- -T 1 -p 3
