Enabling the driver and kconfig options
|
||
|
=======================================
|
||
|
|
||
|
| mlx5 core is modular and most of the major mlx5 core driver features can be selected (compiled in/out)
|
||
|
| at build time via kernel Kconfig flags.
|
||
|
| Basic features, ethernet net device rx/tx offloads and XDP, are available with the most basic flags
|
||
|
| CONFIG_MLX5_CORE=y/m and CONFIG_MLX5_CORE_EN=y.
|
||
|
| For the list of advanced features please see below.
|
||
|
|
||
|
**CONFIG_MLX5_CORE=(y/m/n)** (module mlx5_core.ko)
|
||
|
|
||
|
| The driver can be enabled by choosing CONFIG_MLX5_CORE=y/m in kernel config.
|
||
|
| This will provide mlx5 core driver for mlx5 ulps to interface with (mlx5e, mlx5_ib).
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
**CONFIG_MLX5_CORE_EN=(y/n)**
|
||
|
|
||
|
| Choosing this option will allow basic ethernet netdevice support with all of the standard rx/tx offloads.

Devlink info
|
||
|
============
|
||
|
|
||
|
The devlink info reports the running and stored firmware versions on device.
|
||
|
It also prints the device PSID which represents the HCA board type ID.
|
||
|
|
||
|
User command example::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink dev info pci/0000:00:06.0
|
||
|
pci/0000:00:06.0:
|
||
|
driver mlx5_core
|
||
|
versions:
|
||
|
fixed:
|
||
|
fw.psid MT_0000000009
|
||
|
running:
|
||
|
fw.version 16.26.0100
|
||

Devlink parameters
|
||
|
==================
|
||
|
|
||
|
flow_steering_mode: Device flow steering mode
|
||
|
---------------------------------------------
|
||
|
The flow steering mode parameter controls the flow steering mode of the driver.
|
||
|
Two modes are supported:
|
||
|
1. 'dmfs' - Device managed flow steering.
|
||
|
2. 'smfs - Software/Driver managed flow steering.
|
||
|
|
||
|
In DMFS mode, the HW steering entities are created and managed through the
|
||
|
Firmware.
|
||
|
In SMFS mode, the HW steering entities are created and managed though by
|
||
|
the driver directly into Hardware without firmware intervention.
|
||
|
|
||
|
SMFS mode is faster and provides better rule inserstion rate compared to default DMFS mode.
|
||
|
|
||
|
User command examples:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Set SMFS flow steering mode::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink dev param set pci/0000:06:00.0 name flow_steering_mode value "smfs" cmode runtime
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Read device flow steering mode::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink dev param show pci/0000:06:00.0 name flow_steering_mode
|
||
|
pci/0000:06:00.0:
|
||
|
name flow_steering_mode type driver-specific
|
||
|
values:
|
||
|
cmode runtime value smfs
|
||
|
|
||
|
enable_roce: RoCE enablement state
|
||
|
----------------------------------
|
||
|
RoCE enablement state controls driver support for RoCE traffic.
|
||
|
When RoCE is disabled, there is no gid table, only raw ethernet QPs are supported and traffic on the well known UDP RoCE port is handled as raw ethernet traffic.
|
||
|
|
||
|
To change RoCE enablement state a user must change the driverinit cmode value and run devlink reload.
|
||
|
|
||
|
User command examples:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Disable RoCE::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink dev param set pci/0000:06:00.0 name enable_roce value false cmode driverinit
|
||
|
$ devlink dev reload pci/0000:06:00.0
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Read RoCE enablement state::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink dev param show pci/0000:06:00.0 name enable_roce
|
||
|
pci/0000:06:00.0:
|
||
|
name enable_roce type generic
|
||
|
values:
|
||
|
cmode driverinit value true
|
||
|
|
||
|
esw_port_metadata: Eswitch port metadata state
|
||
|
----------------------------------------------
|
||
|
When applicable, disabling Eswitch metadata can increase packet rate
|
||
|
up to 20% depending on the use case and packet sizes.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Eswitch port metadata state controls whether to internally tag packets with
|
||
|
metadata. Metadata tagging must be enabled for multi-port RoCE, failover
|
||
|
between representors and stacked devices.
|
||
|
By default metadata is enabled on the supported devices in E-switch.
|
||
|
Metadata is applicable only for E-switch in switchdev mode and
|
||
|
users may disable it when NONE of the below use cases will be in use:
|
||
|
1. HCA is in Dual/multi-port RoCE mode.
|
||
|
2. VF/SF representor bonding (Usually used for Live migration)
|
||
|
3. Stacked devices
|
||
|
|
||
|
When metadata is disabled, the above use cases will fail to initialize if
|
||
|
users try to enable them.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Show eswitch port metadata::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink dev param show pci/0000:06:00.0 name esw_port_metadata
|
||
|
pci/0000:06:00.0:
|
||
|
name esw_port_metadata type driver-specific
|
||
|
values:
|
||
|
cmode runtime value true
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Disable eswitch port metadata::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink dev param set pci/0000:06:00.0 name esw_port_metadata value false cmode runtime
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Change eswitch mode to switchdev mode where after choosing the metadata value::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:06:00.0 mode switchdev
|
||
|
|
||
|
Bridge offload
|
||
|
==============
|
||
|
The mlx5 driver implements support for offloading bridge rules when in switchdev
|
||
|
mode. Linux bridge FDBs are automatically offloaded when mlx5 switchdev
|
||
|
representor is attached to bridge.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Change device to switchdev mode::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:06:00.0 mode switchdev
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Attach mlx5 switchdev representor 'enp8s0f0' to bridge netdev 'bridge1'::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ ip link set enp8s0f0 master bridge1
|
||
|
|
||
|
VLANs
|
||
|
-----
|
||
|
Following bridge VLAN functions are supported by mlx5:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- VLAN filtering (including multiple VLANs per port)::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ ip link set bridge1 type bridge vlan_filtering 1
|
||
|
$ bridge vlan add dev enp8s0f0 vid 2-3
|
||
|
|
||
|
- VLAN push on bridge ingress::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ bridge vlan add dev enp8s0f0 vid 3 pvid
|
||
|
|
||
|
- VLAN pop on bridge egress::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ bridge vlan add dev enp8s0f0 vid 3 untagged
|
||
|
|
||
|
mlx5 subfunction
|
||
|
================
|
||
|
mlx5 supports subfunction management using devlink port (see :ref:`Documentation/networking/devlink/devlink-port.rst <devlink_port>`) interface.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A Subfunction has its own function capabilities and its own resources. This
|
||
|
means a subfunction has its own dedicated queues (txq, rxq, cq, eq). These
|
||
|
queues are neither shared nor stolen from the parent PCI function.
|
||
|
|
||
|
When a subfunction is RDMA capable, it has its own QP1, GID table and rdma
|
||
|
resources neither shared nor stolen from the parent PCI function.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A subfunction has a dedicated window in PCI BAR space that is not shared
|
||
|
with ther other subfunctions or the parent PCI function. This ensures that all
|
||
|
devices (netdev, rdma, vdpa etc.) of the subfunction accesses only assigned
|
||
|
PCI BAR space.
|
||
|
|
||
|
A Subfunction supports eswitch representation through which it supports tc
|
||
|
offloads. The user configures eswitch to send/receive packets from/to
|
||
|
the subfunction port.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Subfunctions share PCI level resources such as PCI MSI-X IRQs with
|
||
|
other subfunctions and/or with its parent PCI function.
|
||
|
|
||

mlx5 function attributes
|
||
|
========================
|
||
|
The mlx5 driver provides a mechanism to setup PCI VF/SF function attributes in
|
||
|
a unified way for SmartNIC and non-SmartNIC.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is supported only when the eswitch mode is set to switchdev. Port function
|
||
|
configuration of the PCI VF/SF is supported through devlink eswitch port.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Port function attributes should be set before PCI VF/SF is enumerated by the
|
||
|
driver.
|
||
|
|
||
|
MAC address setup
|
||
|
-----------------
|
||
|
mlx5 driver provides mechanism to setup the MAC address of the PCI VF/SF.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The configured MAC address of the PCI VF/SF will be used by netdevice and rdma
|
||
|
device created for the PCI VF/SF.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Get the MAC address of the VF identified by its unique devlink port index::
|
||

|
function:
|
||
|
hw_addr 00:00:00:00:88:88 state inactive opstate detached
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Activate the function and verify its state is active::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink port function set ens2f0npf0sf88 state active
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink port show ens2f0npf0sf88
|

pci/0000:06:00.0/32768: type eth netdev ens2f0npf0sf88 flavour pcisf controller 0 pfnum 0 sfnum 88 external false splittable false
|
||
|
function:
|
||
|
hw_addr 00:00:00:00:88:88 state active opstate detached
|
||
|
|
||
|
Upon function activation, the PF driver instance gets the event from the device
|
||
|
that a particular SF was activated. It's the cue to put the device on bus, probe
|
||
|
it and instantiate the devlink instance and class specific auxiliary devices
|
||
|
for it.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Show the auxiliary device and port of the subfunction::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink dev show
|
||
|
devlink dev show auxiliary/mlx5_core.sf.4
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink port show auxiliary/mlx5_core.sf.4/1
|
||
|

|
||
|
|
||
|
- Subfunction auxiliary device and class device hierarchy::
|
||
|
|
||
|
mlx5_core.sf.4
|
||
|
(subfunction auxiliary device)
|
||
|
/\
|
||
|
/ \
|
||
|
/ \
|
||
|
/ \
|
||
|
/ \
|
||
|
mlx5_core.eth.4 mlx5_core.rdma.4
|
||
|
(sf eth aux dev) (sf rdma aux dev)
|
||
|
| |
|
||
|
| |
|
||
|
p0sf88 mlx5_0
|
||
|
(sf netdev) (sf rdma device)
|
||
|
|
||
|
Additionally, the SF port also gets the event when the driver attaches to the
|
||
|
auxiliary device of the subfunction. This results in changing the operational
|
||
|
state of the function. This provides visiblity to the user to decide when is it
|
||
|
safe to delete the SF port for graceful termination of the subfunction.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Show the SF port operational state::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink port show ens2f0npf0sf88
|
||
|
pci/0000:06:00.0/32768: type eth netdev ens2f0npf0sf88 flavour pcisf controller 0 pfnum 0 sfnum 88 external false splittable false
|

Devlink health reporters
|
||
|
========================
|
||
|
|
||
|
tx reporter
|
||
|
-----------
|
||
|
The tx reporter is responsible for reporting and recovering of the following two error scenarios:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- TX timeout
|
||
|
Report on kernel tx timeout detection.
|
||
|
Recover by searching lost interrupts.
|
||
|
- TX error completion
|
||
|
Report on error tx completion.
|
||
|
Recover by flushing the TX queue and reset it.
|
||
|
|
||
|
TX reporter also support on demand diagnose callback, on which it provides
|
||
|
real time information of its send queues status.
|
||
|
|
||
|
User commands examples:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Diagnose send queues status::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink health diagnose pci/0000:82:00.0 reporter tx
|
||
|
|
||
|
NOTE: This command has valid output only when interface is up, otherwise the command has empty output.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Show number of tx errors indicated, number of recover flows ended successfully,
|
||
|
is autorecover enabled and graceful period from last recover::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink health show pci/0000:82:00.0 reporter tx
|
||
|
|
||
|
rx reporter
|
||
|
-----------
|
||
|
The rx reporter is responsible for reporting and recovering of the following two error scenarios:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- RX queues initialization (population) timeout
|
||
|
RX queues descriptors population on ring initialization is done in
|
||
|
napi context via triggering an irq, in case of a failure to get
|
||
|
the minimum amount of descriptors, a timeout would occur and it
|
||
|
could be recoverable by polling the EQ (Event Queue).
|
||
|
- RX completions with errors (reported by HW on interrupt context)
|
||
|
Report on rx completion error.
|
||
|
Recover (if needed) by flushing the related queue and reset it.
|
||
|
|
||
|
RX reporter also supports on demand diagnose callback, on which it
|
||
|
provides real time information of its receive queues status.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Diagnose rx queues status, and corresponding completion queue::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink health diagnose pci/0000:82:00.0 reporter rx
|
||
|
|
||
|
NOTE: This command has valid output only when interface is up, otherwise the command has empty output.
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Show number of rx errors indicated, number of recover flows ended successfully,
|
||
|
is autorecover enabled and graceful period from last recover::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink health show pci/0000:82:00.0 reporter rx
|
||
|
|
||
|
fw reporter
|
||
|
-----------
|
||
|
The fw reporter implements diagnose and dump callbacks.
|
||
|
It follows symptoms of fw error such as fw syndrome by triggering
|
||
|
fw core dump and storing it into the dump buffer.
|
||
|
The fw reporter diagnose command can be triggered any time by the user to check
|
||
|
current fw status.
|
||
|
|
||
|
User commands examples:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Check fw heath status::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink health diagnose pci/0000:82:00.0 reporter fw
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Read FW core dump if already stored or trigger new one::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink health dump show pci/0000:82:00.0 reporter fw
|
||
|
|
||
|
NOTE: This command can run only on the PF which has fw tracer ownership,
|
||
|
running it on other PF or any VF will return "Operation not permitted".
|
||
|
|
||
|
fw fatal reporter
|
||
|
-----------------
|
||
|
The fw fatal reporter implements dump and recover callbacks.
|
||
|
It follows fatal errors indications by CR-space dump and recover flow.
|
||
|
The CR-space dump uses vsc interface which is valid even if the FW command
|
||
|
interface is not functional, which is the case in most FW fatal errors.
|
||
|
The recover function runs recover flow which reloads the driver and triggers fw
|
||
|
reset if needed.
|
||
|
On firmware error, the health buffer is dumped into the dmesg. The log
|
||
|
level is derived from the error's severity (given in health buffer).
|
||
|
|
||
|
User commands examples:
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Run fw recover flow manually::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink health recover pci/0000:82:00.0 reporter fw_fatal
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Read FW CR-space dump if already strored or trigger new one::
|
||
|
|
||
|
$ devlink health dump show pci/0000:82:00.1 reporter fw_fatal
|
||
|
|
||
|
NOTE: This command can run only on PF.
|
||
|
|
||
|
