# 270297 21-Aug-2014 np

MFC r266571, r266757, r268536, r269076, r269364, r269366, r269411,
r269413, r269428, r269440, r269537, r269644, r269731, and the cxgbe
portion of r270063.

r266571:
cxgbe(4): Remove stray if_up from the code that creates the tracing ifnet.

r266757:
cxgbe(4): netmap support for Terminator 5 (T5) based 10G/40G cards.
Netmap gets its own hardware-assisted virtual interface and won't take
over or disrupt the "normal" interface in any way. You can use both
simultaneously.

For kernels with DEV_NETMAP, cxgbe(4) carves out an ncxl<N> interface
(note the 'n' prefix) in the hardware to accompany each cxl<N>
interface. These two ifnet's per port share the same wire but really
are separate interfaces in the hardware and software. Each gets its own
L2 MAC addresses (unicast and multicast), MTU, checksum caps, etc. You
should run netmap on the 'n' interfaces only, that's what they are for.

With this, pkt-gen is able to transmit > 45Mpps out of a single 40G port
of a T580 card. 2 port tx is at ~56Mpps total (28M + 28M) as of now.
Single port receive is at 33Mpps but this is very much a work in
progress. I expect it to be closer to 40Mpps once done. In any case
the current effort can already saturate multiple 10G ports of a T5 card
at the smallest legal packet size. T4 gear is totally untested.

r268536:
cxgbe(4): Add an iSCSI softc to the adapter structure.

r269076:
Some hooks in cxgbe(4) for the offloaded iSCSI driver.

r269364:
Improve compliance with style.Makefile(5).

r269366:
List one file per line in the Makefiles. This makes it easier to read
diffs when a file is added or removed.

r269411:
cxgbe(4): minor optimizations in ingress queue processing.

Reorganize struct sge_iq. Make the iq entry size a compile time
constant. While here, eliminate RX_FL_ESIZE and use EQ_ESIZE directly.

r269413:
cxgbe(4): Fix an off by one error when looking for the BAR2 doorbell
address of an egress queue.

r269428:
cxgbe(4): some optimizations in freelist handling.

r269440:
cxgbe(4): Remove an unused version of t4_enable_vi.

r269537:
cxgbe(4): Do not run any sleepable code in the SIOCSIFFLAGS handler when
IFF_PROMISC or IFF_ALLMULTI is being flipped. bpf(4) holds its global
mutex around ifpromisc in at least the bpf_dtor path.

r269644:
cxgbe(4): Let caller specify whether it's ok to sleep in
t4_sched_config and t4_sched_params.

r269731:
cxgbe(4): Do not poke T4-only registers on a T5 (and vice versa).

Relnotes: Yes (native netmap support for Chelsio T4/T5 cards)


# 269082 24-Jul-2014 np

MFC r268640 and r268989.

r268640:
Allow multi-byte reads in the private CHELSIO_T4_GET_I2C ioctl. The
firmware allows up to 48B to be read this way but the driver limits
itself to 8B at a time to remain compatible with old cxgbetool
binaries.

r268989:
Add missing newline to an error message.


# 265410 06-May-2014 np

MFC r261533, r261536, r261537, and r263457.

r261533:
cxgbe(4): Use the port's tx channel to identify it to t4_clr_port_stats.

r261536:
cxgbe(4): The T5 allows for a different freelist starvation threshold
for queues with buffer packing. Use the correct value to calculate a
freelist's low water mark.

r261537:
cxgbe(4): Use the rx channel map (instead of the tx channel map) as the
congestion channel map.

r263457:
cxgbe(4): Recognize the "spider" configuration where a T5 card's 40G
QSFP port is presented as 4 distinct 10G SFP+ ports to the driver.


# 259142 09-Dec-2013 np

MFC r257654, r257772, r258441, r258689, r258698, r258879, r259048, and
r259103.

r257654:
cxgbe(4): Exclude MPS_RPLC_MAP_CTL (0x11114) from the register dump. Turns
out it's a write-only register with strange side effects on read.

r257772:
cxgbe(4): Tidy up the display for payload memory statistics (pm_stats).

r258441:
cxgbe(4): update the internal list of device features.

r258689:
Disable an assertion that relies on some code[1] that isn't in HEAD yet.

r258698:
cxgbetool: "modinfo" command to display SFP+ module information.

r258879:
cxgbe(4): T4_SET_SCHED_CLASS and T4_SET_SCHED_QUEUE ioctls to program
scheduling classes in the chip and to bind tx queue(s) to a scheduling
class respectively. These can be used for various kinds of tx traffic
throttling (to force selected tx queues to drain at a fixed Kbps rate,
or a % of the port's total bandwidth, or at a fixed pps rate, etc.).

r259048:
Two new cxgbetool subcommands to set up scheduler classes and to bind
them to NIC queues.

r259103:
cxgbe(4): save a copy of the RSS map for each port for the driver's use.


# 256281 10-Oct-2013 gjb

# 253691 26-Jul-2013 np

Add support for packet-sniffing tracers to cxgbe(4). This works with
all T4 and T5 based cards and is useful for analyzing TSO, LRO, TOE, and
for general purpose monitoring without tapping any cxgbe or cxl ifnet
directly.

Tracers on the T4/T5 chips provide access to Ethernet frames exactly as
they were received from or transmitted on the wire. On transmit, a
tracer will capture a frame after TSO segmentation, hw VLAN tag
insertion, hw L3 & L4 checksum insertion, etc. It will also capture
frames generated by the TCP offload engine (TOE traffic is normally
invisible to the kernel). On receive, a tracer will capture a frame
before hw VLAN extraction, runt filtering, other badness filtering,
before the steering/drop/L2-rewrite filters or the TOE have had a go at
it, and of course before sw LRO in the driver.

There are 4 tracers on a chip. A tracer can trace only in one direction
(tx or rx). For now cxgbetool will set up tracers to capture the first
128B of every transmitted or received frame on a given port. This is a
small subset of what the hardware can do. A pseudo ifnet with the same
name as the nexus driver (t4nex0 or t5nex0) will be created for tracing.
The data delivered to this ifnet is an additional copy made inside the
chip. Normal delivery to cxgbe<n> or cxl<n> will be made as usual.

/* watch cxl0, which is the first port hanging off t5nex0. */
# cxgbetool t5nex0 tracer 0 tx0 (watch what cxl0 is transmitting)
# cxgbetool t5nex0 tracer 1 rx0 (watch what cxl0 is receiving)
# cxgbetool t5nex0 tracer list
# tcpdump -i t5nex0 <== all that cxl0 sees and puts on the wire

If you were doing TSO, a tcpdump on cxl0 may have shown you ~64K
"frames" with no L3/L4 checksum but this will show you the frames that
were actually transmitted.

/* all done */
# cxgbetool t5nex0 tracer 0 disable
# cxgbetool t5nex0 tracer 1 disable
# cxgbetool t5nex0 tracer list
# ifconfig t5nex0 destroy

# 248925 30-Mar-2013 np

cxgbe(4): Add support for Chelsio's Terminator 5 (aka T5) ASIC. This
includes support for the NIC and TOE features of the 40G, 10G, and
1G/100M cards based on the T5.

The ASIC is mostly backward compatible with the Terminator 4 so cxgbe(4)
has been updated instead of writing a brand new driver. T5 cards will
show up as cxl (short for cxlgb) ports attached to the t5nex bus driver.

Add a driver ioctl to read a byte from any device on a port's i2c bus.
This lets userspace read arbitrary information from the SFP+ modules
etc. on this bus.

Reading multiple bytes in the same transaction isn't possible right now.
I'll update the driver once the chip's firmware supports this.

# 237263 19-Jun-2012 np

- Updated TOE support in the kernel.

- Stateful TCP offload drivers for Terminator 3 and 4 (T3 and T4) ASICs.
These are available as t3_tom and t4_tom modules that augment cxgb(4)
and cxgbe(4) respectively. The cxgb/cxgbe drivers continue to work as
usual with or without these extra features.

- iWARP driver for Terminator 3 ASIC (kernel verbs). T4 iWARP in the
works and will follow soon.

Build-tested with make universe.

30s overview
============
What interfaces support TCP offload? Look for TOE4 and/or TOE6 in the
capabilities of an interface:
# ifconfig -m | grep TOE

Enable/disable TCP offload on an interface (just like any other ifnet
capability):
# ifconfig cxgbe0 toe
# ifconfig cxgbe0 -toe

Which connections are offloaded? Look for toe4 and/or toe6 in the
output of netstat and sockstat:
# netstat -np tcp | grep toe
# sockstat -46c | grep toe

Many updates to cxgbe(4)

- Device configuration via plain text config file. Also able to operate
when not attached to the chip as the master driver.

- Generic "work request" queue that serves as the base for both ctrl and
ofld tx queues.

- Generic interrupt handler routine that can process any event on any
kind of ingress queue (via a dispatch table).

- A couple of new driver ioctls. cxgbetool can now install a firmware
to the card ("loadfw" command) and can read the card's memory
("memdump" and "tcb" commands).

- Lots of assorted information within dev.t4nex.X.misc.* This is
primarily for debugging and won't show up in sysctl -a.

- Code to manage the L2 tables on the chip.

- Updates to cxgbe(4) man page to go with the tunables that have changed.

- Updates to the shared code in common/

- Updates to the driver-firmware interface (now at fw 1.4.16.0)

MFC after: 1 month


# 220649 15-Apr-2011 np

Fix a couple of bad races that can occur when a cxgbe interface is taken
down. The ingress queue lock was unused and has been removed as part of
these changes.

- An in-flight egress update from the SGE must be handled before the
queue that requested it is destroyed. Wait for the update to arrive.

- Interrupt handlers must stop processing rx events for a queue before
the queue is destroyed. Events that have not yet been processed
should be ignored once the queue disappears.
