Hi Dave, Jakub, Jason,

This series form Parav was the theme of this mlx5 release cycle,
we've been waiting anxiously for the auxbus infrastructure to make it into
the kernel, and now as the auxbus is in and all the stars are aligned, I
can finally submit this patchset of the devlink and mlx5 subfunction support.

For more detailed information about subfunctions please see detailed tag
log below.

Please pull and let me know if there's any problem.

Thanks,
Saeed.

 - dropped devlink global lock improvement patch as mlx5 doesn't support
   reload while SFs are allocated
 - dropped devlink reload lock patch as mlx5 doesn't support reload
   when SFs are allocated
 - using updated vhca event from device to add remove auxiliary device
 - split sf devlink port allocation and sf hardware context allocation


Thanks,
Saeed.

----------------------------------------------------------------
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.

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
