This document describes the devlink features implemented by the ``ice``
|
|
device driver.

|
Info versions
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
The ``ice`` driver reports the following versions
|
|
|
|
.. list-table:: devlink info versions implemented
|
|
:widths: 5 5 5 90
|
|
|
|
* - Name
|
|
- Type
|
|
- Example
|
|
- Description
|
|
* - ``board.id``
|
|
- fixed
|
|
- K65390-000
|
|
- The Product Board Assembly (PBA) identifier of the board.
|
|
* - ``fw.mgmt``
|
|
- running
|
|
- 2.1.7
|
|
- 3-digit version number of the management firmware running on the
|
|
Embedded Management Processor of the device. It controls the PHY,
|
|
link, access to device resources, etc. Intel documentation refers to
|
|
this as the EMP firmware.
|
|
* - ``fw.mgmt.api``
|
|
- running
|
|
- 1.5.1
|
|
- 3-digit version number (major.minor.patch) of the API exported over
|
|
the AdminQ by the management firmware. Used by the driver to
|
|
identify what commands are supported. Historical versions of the
|
|
kernel only displayed a 2-digit version number (major.minor).
|
|
* - ``fw.mgmt.build``
|
|
- running
|
|
- 0x305d955f
|
|
- Unique identifier of the source for the management firmware.
|
|
* - ``fw.undi``
|
|
- running
|
|
- 1.2581.0
|
|
- Version of the Option ROM containing the UEFI driver. The version is
|
|
reported in ``major.minor.patch`` format. The major version is
|
|
incremented whenever a major breaking change occurs, or when the
|
|
minor version would overflow. The minor version is incremented for
|
|
non-breaking changes and reset to 1 when the major version is
|
|
incremented. The patch version is normally 0 but is incremented when
|
|
a fix is delivered as a patch against an older base Option ROM.
|
|
* - ``fw.psid.api``
|
|
- running
|
|
- 0.80

|
- Version defining the format of the flash contents.
|
|
* - ``fw.bundle_id``
|
|
- running
|
|
- 0x80002ec0
|
|
- Unique identifier of the firmware image file that was loaded onto
|
|
the device. Also referred to as the EETRACK identifier of the NVM.
|
|
* - ``fw.app.name``
|
|
- running
|
|
- ICE OS Default Package
|
|
- The name of the DDP package that is active in the device. The DDP
|
|
package is loaded by the driver during initialization. Each
|
|
variation of the DDP package has a unique name.
|
|
* - ``fw.app``
|
|
- running
|
|
- 1.3.1.0
|
|
- The version of the DDP package that is active in the device. Note
|
|
that both the name (as reported by ``fw.app.name``) and version are
|
|
required to uniquely identify the package.
|
|
* - ``fw.app.bundle_id``
|
|
- running
|
|
- 0xc0000001
|
|
- Unique identifier for the DDP package loaded in the device. Also
|
|
referred to as the DDP Track ID. Can be used to uniquely identify
|
|
the specific DDP package.
|
|
* - ``fw.netlist``
|
|
- running
|
|
- 1.1.2000-6.7.0
|
|
- The version of the netlist module. This module defines the device's
|
|
Ethernet capabilities and default settings, and is used by the
|
|
management firmware as part of managing link and device
|
|
connectivity.
|
|
* - ``fw.netlist.build``
|
|
- running
|
|
- 0xee16ced7
|
|
- The first 4 bytes of the hash of the netlist module contents.
|
|
|
|
Flash Update
|
|
============
|
|
|
|
The ``ice`` driver implements support for flash update using the
|
|
``devlink-flash`` interface. It supports updating the device flash using a
|
|
combined flash image that contains the ``fw.mgmt``, ``fw.undi``, and
|
|
``fw.netlist`` components.
|
|
|
|
.. list-table:: List of supported overwrite modes
|
|
:widths: 5 95
|
|
|
|
* - Bits
|
|
- Behavior
|
|
* - ``DEVLINK_FLASH_OVERWRITE_SETTINGS``
|
|
- Do not preserve settings stored in the flash components being
|
|
updated. This includes overwriting the port configuration that
|
|
determines the number of physical functions the device will
|
|
initialize with.
|
|
* - ``DEVLINK_FLASH_OVERWRITE_SETTINGS`` and ``DEVLINK_FLASH_OVERWRITE_IDENTIFIERS``
|
|
- Do not preserve either settings or identifiers. Overwrite everything
|
|
in the flash with the contents from the provided image, without
|
|
performing any preservation. This includes overwriting device
|
|
identifying fields such as the MAC address, VPD area, and device
|
|
serial number. It is expected that this combination be used with an
|
|
image customized for the specific device.
|
|
|
|
The ice hardware does not support overwriting only identifiers while
|
|
preserving settings, and thus ``DEVLINK_FLASH_OVERWRITE_IDENTIFIERS`` on its
|
|
own will be rejected. If no overwrite mask is provided, the firmware will be
|
|
instructed to preserve all settings and identifying fields when updating.
|
|
|
|
Reload
|
|
======
|
|
|
|
The ``ice`` driver supports activating new firmware after a flash update
|
|
using ``DEVLINK_CMD_RELOAD`` with the ``DEVLINK_RELOAD_ACTION_FW_ACTIVATE``
|
|
action.
|
|
|
|
.. code:: shell
|
|
|
|
$ devlink dev reload pci/0000:01:00.0 reload action fw_activate
|
|
|
|
The new firmware is activated by issuing a device specific Embedded
|
|
Management Processor reset which requests the device to reset and reload the
|
|
EMP firmware image.
|
|
|
|
The driver does not currently support reloading the driver via
|
|
``DEVLINK_RELOAD_ACTION_DRIVER_REINIT``.
|
|
|
|
Port split
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
The ``ice`` driver supports port splitting only for port 0, as the FW has
|
|
a predefined set of available port split options for the whole device.
|
|
|
|
A system reboot is required for port split to be applied.
|
|
|
|
The following command will select the port split option with 4 ports:
|
|
|
|
.. code:: shell
|
|
|
|
$ devlink port split pci/0000:16:00.0/0 count 4
|
|
|
|
The list of all available port options will be printed to dynamic debug after
|
|
each ``split`` and ``unsplit`` command. The first option is the default.
|
|
|
|
.. code:: shell
|
|
|
|
ice 0000:16:00.0: Available port split options and max port speeds (Gbps):
|
|
ice 0000:16:00.0: Status Split Quad 0 Quad 1
|
|
ice 0000:16:00.0: count L0 L1 L2 L3 L4 L5 L6 L7
|
|
ice 0000:16:00.0: Active 2 100 - - - 100 - - -
|
|
ice 0000:16:00.0: 2 50 - 50 - - - - -
|
|
ice 0000:16:00.0: Pending 4 25 25 25 25 - - - -
|
|
ice 0000:16:00.0: 4 25 25 - - 25 25 - -
|
|
ice 0000:16:00.0: 8 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10
|
|
ice 0000:16:00.0: 1 100 - - - - - - -
|
|
|
|
There could be multiple FW port options with the same port split count. When
|
|
the same port split count request is issued again, the next FW port option with
|
|
the same port split count will be selected.
|
|
|
|
``devlink port unsplit`` will select the option with a split count of 1. If
|
|
there is no FW option available with split count 1, you will receive an error.
|
|
|
|
Regions
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
The ``ice`` driver implements the following regions for accessing internal
|
|
device data.
|
|
|
|
.. list-table:: regions implemented
|
|
:widths: 15 85
|
|
|
|
* - Name
|
|
- Description
|
|
* - ``nvm-flash``
|
|
- The contents of the entire flash chip, sometimes referred to as
|
|
the device's Non Volatile Memory.
|
|
* - ``device-caps``
|
|
- The contents of the device firmware's capabilities buffer. Useful to
|
|
determine the current state and configuration of the device.
|
|
|
|
Users can request an immediate capture of a snapshot via the
|
|
``DEVLINK_CMD_REGION_NEW``
|
|
|
|
