Jakub Kicinski 24a790da0a mlx5 subfunction support
Parav Pandit Says:
 =================
 
 This patchset introduces support for mlx5 subfunction (SF).
 
 A subfunction is a lightweight function that has a parent PCI function on
 which it is deployed. mlx5 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 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 dedicated window in PCI BAR space that is not shared
 with the other subfunctions or parent PCI function. This ensures that all
 class devices of the subfunction accesses only assigned PCI BAR space.
 
 A Subfunction supports eswitch representation through which it supports tc
 offloads. User must configure eswitch to send/receive packets from/to
 subfunction port.
 
 Subfunctions share PCI level resources such as PCI MSI-X IRQs with
 their other subfunctions and/or with its parent PCI function.
 
 Patch summary:
 --------------
 Patch 1 to 4 prepares devlink
 patch 5 to 7 mlx5 adds SF device support
 Patch 8 to 11 mlx5 adds SF devlink port support
 Patch 12 and 14 adds documentation
 
 Patch-1 prepares code to handle multiple port function attributes
 Patch-2 introduces devlink pcisf port flavour similar to pcipf and pcivf
 Patch-3 adds port add and delete driver callbacks
 Patch-4 adds port function state get and set callbacks
 Patch-5 mlx5 vhca event notifier support to distribute subfunction
         state change notification
 Patch-6 adds SF auxiliary device
 Patch-7 adds SF auxiliary driver
 Patch-8 prepares eswitch to handler SF vport
 Patch-9 adds eswitch helpers to add/remove SF vport
 Patch-10 implements devlink port add/del callbacks
 Patch-11 implements devlink port function get/set callbacks
 Patch-12 to 14 adds documentation
 Patch-12 added mlx5 port function documentation
 Patch-13 adds subfunction documentation
 Patch-14 adds mlx5 subfunction documentation
 
 Subfunction support is discussed in detail in RFC [1] and [2].
 RFC [1] and extension [2] describes requirements, design and proposed
 plumbing using devlink, auxiliary bus and sysfs for systemd/udev
 support. Functionality of this patchset is best explained using real
 examples further below.
 
 overview:
 --------
 A subfunction can be created and deleted by a user using devlink port
 add/delete interface.
 
 A subfunction can be configured using devlink port function attribute
 before its activated.
 
 When a subfunction is activated, it results in an auxiliary device on
 the host PCI device where it is deployed. A driver binds to the
 auxiliary device that further creates supported class devices.
 
 example subfunction usage sequence:
 -----------------------------------
 Change device to switchdev mode:
 $ devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:06:00.0 mode switchdev
 
 Add a devlink port of subfunction flavour:
 $ devlink port add pci/0000:06:00.0 flavour pcisf pfnum 0 sfnum 88
 
 Configure mac address of the port function:
 $ devlink port function set ens2f0npf0sf88 hw_addr 00:00:00:00:88:88
 
 Now activate the function:
 $ devlink port function set ens2f0npf0sf88 state active
 
 Now use the auxiliary device and class devices:
 $ devlink dev show
 pci/0000:06:00.0
 auxiliary/mlx5_core.sf.4
 
 $ ip link show
 127: ens2f0np0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
     link/ether 24:8a:07:b3:d1:12 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
     altname enp6s0f0np0
 129: p0sf88: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
     link/ether 00:00:00:00:88:88 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
 
 $ rdma dev show
 43: rdmap6s0f0: node_type ca fw 16.29.0550 node_guid 248a:0703:00b3:d112 sys_image_guid 248a:0703:00b3:d112
 44: mlx5_0: node_type ca fw 16.29.0550 node_guid 0000:00ff:fe00:8888 sys_image_guid 248a:0703:00b3:d112
 
 After use inactivate the function:
 $ devlink port function set ens2f0npf0sf88 state inactive
 
 Now delete the subfunction port:
 $ devlink port del ens2f0npf0sf88
