2011-12-19mlx4_core: Changing link sensing logicYevgeny Petrilin
New FW can give clues to driver regarding default port type and whether or not we should default to link sensing on the port. 2 bits are added to QUERY_PORT command: 1. suggested_type: This bit gives a hint whether the default port type should be IB or Ethernet. The driver will use this hint in case the user didn't specify explicitly the link layer type he wants to set. 2. default_sense: If this bit is set, we would sense the port type on start-up and default the port to link sensing Signed-off-by: Yevgeny Petrilin <yevgenyp@mellanox.co.il> Signed-off-by: David S.

2011-12-13mlx4_core: Modify driver initialization flow to accommodate SRIOV for EthernetJack Morgenstein
1. Added module parameters sr_iov and probe_vf for controlling enablement of SRIOV mode. 2. Increased default max num-qps, num-mpts and log_num_macs to accomodate SRIOV mode 3. Added port_type_array as a module parameter to allow driver startup with ports configured as desired. In SRIOV mode, only ETH is supported, and this array is ignored; otherwise, for the case where the FW supports both port types (ETH and IB), the port_type_array parameter is used. By default, the port_type_array is set to configure both ports as IB. 4. When running in sriov mode, the master needs to initialize the ICM eq table to hold the eq's for itself and also for all the slaves. 5. mlx4_set_port_mask() now invoked from mlx4_init_hca, instead of in mlx4_dev_cap. 6. Introduced sriov VF (slave) device startup/teardown logic (mainly procedures mlx4_init_slave, mlx4_slave_exit, mlx4_slave_cap, mlx4_slave_exit and flow modifications in __mlx4_init_one, mlx4_init_hca, and mlx4_setup_hca). VFs obtain their startup information from the PF (master) device via the comm channel. 7. In SRIOV mode (both PF and VF), MSI_X must be enabled, or the driver aborts loading the device. 8. Do not allow setting port type via sysfs when running in SRIOV mode. 9. mlx4_get_ownership: Currently, only one PF is supported by the driver. If the HCA is burned with FW which enables more than one PF, only one of the PFs is allowed to run. The first one up grabs a FW ownership semaphone -- all other PFs will find that semaphore taken, and the driver will not allow them to run.

2011-12-13mlx4_core: Added FW commands and their wrappers for supporting SRIOVMarcel Apfelbaum
The following commands are added here: 1. QUERY_FUNC_CAP and its wrapper. This function is used by VFs when they start up to receive configuration information from the PF, such as resource quotas for this VF, which ports should be used (currently two), what protocol is running on the port (currently Ethernet ONLY, or port not active). 2. QUERY_PORT and its wrapper. Previously, this FW command was invoked directly by the ETH driver (en_port.c) using mlx4_cmd_box. Virtualization is now required here (the VF's MAC address must be substituted for the PFs MAC address returned by the FW). We changed the invocation in the ETH driver to use mlx4_QUERY_PORT, and added the wrapper. 3. QUERY_HCA. Used by the VF to determine how the HCA was initialized. For now, we need only the multicast table member entry size (log2_mc_table_entry_sz, in the ConnectX PRM). No wrapper is needed here, because the data may be passed as is to the VF without modification). In this command, we have added a GLOBAL_CAPS field for passing required configuration information from FW to a VF (this field is to allow safely adding new SRIOV capabilities which require support in VF drivers, too). Bits will set here by FW in response to PF-driver configuration commands which will activate as yet undefined new SRIOV features. The VF will test to see that all required capabilities indicated by this field are supported (i.e., if a bit is set and the VF driver does not recognize that bit, it must abort its initialization). Currently, no bits are set. 4. Added a CLOSE_PORT wrapper. The PF context needs to keep track of how many VF contexts have the port open. The PF context will not actually issue the FW close port command until the last port user issues a CLOSE_PORT request.
