KernelVersion: 4.6
Contact: linux-rdma@vger.kernel.org
Description:
The optional "hw_counters" subdirectory can be under either the
parent device or the port subdirectories or both. If present,
there are a list of counters provided by the hardware. They may
match some of the counters in the counters directory, but they
often include many other counters. In addition to the various
counters, there will be a file named "lifespan" that configures
how frequently the core should update the counters when they are
being accessed (counters are not updated if they are not being
accessed). The lifespan is in milliseconds and defaults to 10
unless set to something else by the driver. Users may echo a
value between 0-10000 to the lifespan file to set the length
of time between updates in milliseconds.

Description:
The sysfs iov directory is used to manage and examine the port
P_Key and guid paravirtualization. This directory is added only
for the master -- slaves do not have it.
Under iov/ports, the administrator may examine the gid and P_Key
tables as they are present in the device (and as are seen in the
"network view" presented to the SM).
The "pkeys" and "gids" subdirectories contain one file for each
entry in the port's P_Key or GID table respectively. For
example, ports/1/pkeys/10 contains the value at index 10 in port
1's P_Key table.
======================= ==========================================
gids/<n>: (RO) The physical port gids n = 0..127
admin_guids/<n>: (RW) Allows examining or changing the
administrative state of a given GUID
n = 0..127
pkeys/<n>: (RO) Displays the contents of the physical
key table n = 0..126
mcgs/: (RO) Muticast group table
<m>/gid_idx/0: (RO) Display the GID mapping m = 1..2
<m>/pkey_idx/<n>: (RW) Writable except for RoCE pkeys.
m = 1..2, n = 0..126
Under the iov/<pci slot number>
directories, the admin may map the index
numbers in the physical tables (as under
iov/ports) to the paravirtualized index
numbers that guests see.
For example, if the administrator, for
port 1 on guest 2 maps physical pkey
index 10 to virtual index 1, then that
guest, whenever it uses its pkey index
1, will actually be using the real pkey
index 10.

Description:
sdma<N>/ contains one directory per sdma engine (0 - 15)
=============== ==============================================
cpu_list: (RW) List of cpus for user-process to sdma
engine assignment.
vl: (RO) Displays the virtual lane (vl) the sdma
engine maps to.
=============== ==============================================
This interface gives the user control on the affinity settings
for the device. As an example, to set an sdma engine irq
affinity and thread affinity of a user processes to use the
sdma engine, which is "near" in terms of NUMA configuration, or
physical cpu location, the user will do::
echo "3" > /proc/irq/<N>/smp_affinity_list
echo "4-7" > /sys/devices/.../sdma3/cpu_list
cat /sys/devices/.../sdma3/vl
0
echo "8" > /proc/irq/<M>/smp_affinity_list
echo "9-12" > /sys/devices/.../sdma4/cpu_list
cat /sys/devices/.../sdma4/vl
1
to make sure that when a process runs on cpus 4,5,6, or 7, and
uses vl=0, then sdma engine 3 is selected by the driver, and
also the interrupt of the sdma engine 3 is steered to cpu 3.
Similarly, when a process runs on cpus 9,10,11, or 12 and sets
vl=1, then engine 4 will be selected and the irq of the sdma
engine 4 is steered to cpu 8. This assumes that in the above N
is the irq number of "sdma3", and M is irq number of "sdma4" in
the /proc/interrupts file.
