netdevsim devlink support
|
||
|
|
=========================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This document describes the ``devlink`` features supported by the
|
||
|
|
``netdevsim`` device driver.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Parameters
|
||
|
|
==========
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. list-table:: Generic parameters implemented
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* - Name
|
||
|
|
- Mode
|
||
|
|
* - ``max_macs``
|
||
|
|
- driverinit
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The ``netdevsim`` driver also implements the following driver-specific
|
||
|
|
parameters.

|
||
|
|
* - Name
|
||
|
|
- Type
|
||
|
|
- Mode
|
||
|
|
- Description
|
||
|
|
* - ``test1``
|
||
|
|
- Boolean
|
||
|
|
- driverinit
|
||
|
|
- Test parameter used to show how a driver-specific devlink parameter
|
||
|
|
can be implemented.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The ``netdevsim`` driver supports reloading via ``DEVLINK_CMD_RELOAD``
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Regions
|
||
|
|
=======
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The ``netdevsim`` driver exposes a ``dummy`` region as an example of how the
|
||
|
|
devlink-region interfaces work. A snapshot is taken whenever the
|
||
|
|
``take_snapshot`` debugfs file is written to.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Resources
|
||
|
|
=========
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The ``netdevsim`` driver exposes resources to control the number of FIB
|
||
|
|
entries and FIB rule entries that the driver will allow.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.. code:: shell
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
$ devlink resource set netdevsim/netdevsim0 path /IPv4/fib size 96
|
||
|
|
$ devlink resource set netdevsim/netdevsim0 path /IPv4/fib-rules size 16
|
||
|
|
$ devlink resource set netdevsim/netdevsim0 path /IPv6/fib size 64
|
||
|
|
$ devlink resource set netdevsim/netdevsim0 path /IPv6/fib-rules size 16
|
||
|
|
$ devlink dev reload netdevsim/netdevsim0

|
- When a packet enters the device it is classified to a filtering
|
||
|
|
indentifier (FID) based on the ingress port and VLAN. This trap is used
|
||
|
|
to trap packets for which a FID could not be found
