305549: Chelsio T4/T5 VF driver. 303522: Various fixes to the t4/5nex character device. - Remove null open/close methods. - Don't set d_flags to 0 explicitly. - Remove t5_cdevsw as the .d_name member isn't really used and doesn't warrant a separate cdevsw just for the name. - Use ENOTTY as the error value for an unknown ioctl request. - Use make_dev_s() to close race with setting si_drv1. 303647: Store the offset of the KDOORBELL and GTS registers in the softc. VF devices use a different register layout than PF devices. Storing the offset in a value in the softc allows code to be shared between the PF and VF drivers. 303860: Reserve an adapter flag IS_VF to mark VF devices vs PF devices. 303880: Track the base absolute ID of ingress and egress queues. Use this to map an absolute queue ID to a logical queue ID in interrupt handlers. For the regular cxgbe/cxl drivers this should be a no-op as the base absolute ID should be zero. VF devices have a non-zero base absolute ID and require this change. While here, export the absolute ID of egress queues via a sysctl. 304168: Make SGE parameter handling more VF-friendly. Add fields to hold the SGE control register and free list buffer sizes to the sge_params structure. Populate these new fields in t4_init_sge_params() for PF devices and change t4_read_chip_settings() to pull these values out of the params structure instead of reading registers directly. This will permit t4_read_chip_settings() to be reused for VF devices which cannot read SGE registers directly. While here, move the call to t4_init_sge_params() to get_params__post_init(). The VF driver will populate the SGE parameters structure via a different method before calling t4_read_chip_settings(). 304169: Update mailbox writes to work with VF devices. - Use alternate register locations for the data and control registers for VFs. - Do a dummy read to force the writes to the mailbox data registers to post before the write to the control register on VFs. - Do not check the PCI-e firmware register for errors on VFs. 304170: Add support for register dumps on VF devices. - Add handling of VF register sets to t4_get_regs_len() and t4_get_regs(). - While here, use t4_get_regs_len() in the ioctl handler for regdump instead of inlining it. 304479: Add structures for VF-specific adapter parameters. While here, mark which parameters are PF-specific and which are VF-specific. 304482: Adjust t4_port_init() to work with VF devices. Specifically, the FW_PORT_CMD may or may not work for a VF (the PF driver can choose whether or not to permit access to this command), so don't attempt to fetch port information on a VF if permission is denied by the PF. 304485: Reorder sysctls so that nodes shared with the VF driver are added first. This permits a single early return for VF devices in the routines that add sysctl nodes. 305548: Don't break out of the m_advance() loop if len drops to zero. If a packet contains the Ethernet header (14 bytes) in the first mbuf and the payload (IP + UDP + data) in the second mbuf, then the attempt to fetch the l3hdr will return a NULL pointer. The first loop iteration will drop len to zero and exit the loop without setting 'p'. However, the desired data is at the start of the second mbuf, so the correct behavior is to loop around and let the conditional set 'p' to m_data of the next mbuf (and leave offset as 0). 305549: Chelsio T4/T5 VF driver. The cxgbev/cxlv driver supports Virtual Function devices for Chelsio T4 and T4 adapters. The VF devices share most of their code with the existing PF4 driver (cxgbe/cxl) and as such the VF device driver currently depends on the PF4 driver. Similar to the cxgbe/cxl drivers, the VF driver includes a t4vf/t5vf PCI device driver that attaches to the VF device. It then creates child cxgbev/cxlv devices representing ports assigned to the VF. By default, the PF driver assigns a single port to each VF. t4vf_hw.c contains VF-specific routines from the shared code used to fetch VF-specific parameters from the firmware. t4_vf.c contains the VF-specific PCI device driver and includes its own attach routine. VF devices are required to use a different firmware request when transmitting packets (which in turn requires a different CPL message to encapsulate messages). This alternate firmware request does not permit chaining multiple packets in a single message, so each packet results in a firmware request. In addition, the different CPL message requires more detailed information when enabling hardware checksums, so parse_pkt() on VF devices must examine L2 and L3 headers for all packets (not just TSO packets) for VF devices. Finally, L2 checksums on non-UDP/non-TCP packets do not work reliably (the firmware trashes the IPv4 fragment field), so IPv4 checksums for such packets are calculated in software. Most of the other changes in the non-VF-specific code are to expose various variables and functions private to the PF driver so that they can be used by the VF driver. Note that a limited subset of cxgbetool functions are supported on VF devices including register dumps, scheduler classes, and clearing of statistics. In addition, TOE is not supported on VF devices, only for the PF interfaces. Sponsored by: Chelsio Communications

+.Sh DESCRIPTION
+The
+.Nm
+driver provides support for Virtual Functions on PCI Express Ethernet adapters
+based on the Chelsio Terminator 4 and Terminator 5 ASICs (T4 and T5).
+The driver supports Jumbo Frames, Transmit/Receive checksum offload,
+TCP segmentation offload (TSO), Large Receive Offload (LRO), VLAN
+tag insertion/extraction, VLAN checksum offload, VLAN TSO, and
+Receive Side Steering (RSS).
+For further hardware information and questions related to hardware
+requirements, see
+.Pa http://www.chelsio.com/ .
+.Pp
+Note that ports of T5 VFs are named cxlv and attach to a t5vf parent device
+(in contrast to ports named cxgbev that attach to a t4vf parent for a T4 VF).
+Loader tunables with the hw.cxgbe prefix apply to both T4 and T5 VFs.
+The Physical Function driver for T4 and T5 adapters shares these tunables.
+The sysctl MIBs are at dev.t5vf and dev.cxlv for T5 cards and at dev.t4vf and
+dev.cxgbev for T4 cards.

+Tunables can be set at the
+.Xr loader 8
+prompt before booting the kernel or stored in
+.Xr loader.conf 5 .
+.Bl -tag -width indent
+.It Va hw.cxgbe.ntxq10g
+The number of tx queues to use for a 10Gb or 40Gb port.
+The default is 16 or the number
+of CPU cores in the system, whichever is less.
+.It Va hw.cxgbe.nrxq10g
+The number of rx queues to use for a 10Gb or 40Gb port.
+The default is 8 or the number
+of CPU cores in the system, whichever is less.
+.It Va hw.cxgbe.ntxq1g
+The number of tx queues to use for a 1Gb port.
+The default is 4 or the number
+of CPU cores in the system, whichever is less.
+.It Va hw.cxgbe.nrxq1g
+The number of rx queues to use for a 1Gb port.
+The default is 2 or the number
+of CPU cores in the system, whichever is less.
+.It Va hw.cxgbe.holdoff_timer_idx_10G
+.It Va hw.cxgbe.holdoff_timer_idx_1G
+The timer index value to use to delay interrupts.
+The holdoff timer list has the values 1, 5, 10, 50, 100, and 200
+by default (all values are in microseconds) and the index selects a
+value from this list.
+The default value is 1 which means the timer value is 5us.
+Different interfaces can be assigned different values at any time via the
+dev.cxgbev.X.holdoff_tmr_idx or dev.cxlv.X.holdoff_tmr_idx sysctl.
+.It Va hw.cxgbe.holdoff_pktc_idx_10G
+.It Va hw.cxgbe.holdoff_pktc_idx_1G
+The packet-count index value to use to delay interrupts.
+The packet-count list has the values 1, 8, 16, and 32 by default
+and the index selects a value from this list.
+The default value is -1 which means packet counting is disabled and interrupts
+are generated based solely on the holdoff timer value.
+Different interfaces can be assigned different values via the
+dev.cxgbev.X.holdoff_pktc_idx or dev.cxlv.X.holdoff_pktc_idx sysctl.
+This sysctl works only when the interface has never been marked up (as done by
+ifconfig up).
+.It Va hw.cxgbe.qsize_txq
+The size, in number of entries, of the descriptor ring used for a tx
+queue.
+A buf_ring of the same size is also allocated for additional
+software queuing.
+See
+.Xr ifnet 9 .
+The default value is 1024.
+Different interfaces can be assigned different values via the
+dev.cxgbev.X.qsize_txq sysctl or dev.cxlv.X.qsize_txq sysctl.
+This sysctl works only when the interface has never been marked up (as done by
+ifconfig up).
+.It Va hw.cxgbe.qsize_rxq
+The size, in number of entries, of the descriptor ring used for an
+rx queue.
+The default value is 1024.
+Different interfaces can be assigned different values via the
+dev.cxgbev.X.qsize_rxq or dev.cxlv.X.qsize_rxq sysctl.
+This sysctl works only when the interface has never been marked up (as done by
+ifconfig up).
+.It Va hw.cxgbe.interrupt_types
+The interrupt types that the driver is allowed to use.
+Bit 0 represents INTx (line interrupts), bit 1 MSI, bit 2 MSI-X.
+The default is 7 (all allowed).
+The driver will select the best possible type out of the allowed types by
+itself.
+.It Va hw.cxgbe.fl_pktshift
+The number of bytes of padding inserted before the beginning of an Ethernet
+frame in the receive buffer.
+The default value of 2 ensures that the Ethernet payload (usually the IP header)
+is at a 4 byte aligned address.
+0-7 are all valid values.
+.It Va hw.cxgbe.fl_pad
+A non-zero value ensures that writes from the hardware to a receive buffer are
+padded up to the specified boundary.
+The default is -1 which lets the driver pick a pad boundary.
+0 disables trailer padding completely.
+.It Va hw.cxgbe.buffer_packing
+Allow the hardware to deliver multiple frames in the same receive buffer
+opportunistically.
+The default is -1 which lets the driver decide.
+0 or 1 explicitly disable or enable this feature.
+.It Va hw.cxgbe.allow_mbufs_in_cluster
+1 allows the driver to lay down one or more mbufs within the receive buffer
+opportunistically.
+This is the default.
+0 prohibits the driver from doing so.
+.It Va hw.cxgbe.largest_rx_cluster
+.It Va hw.cxgbe.safest_rx_cluster
+Sizes of rx clusters.
+Each of these must be set to one of the sizes available
+(usually 2048, 4096, 9216, and 16384) and largest_rx_cluster must be greater
+than or equal to safest_rx_cluster.
+The defaults are 16384 and 4096 respectively.
+The driver will never attempt to allocate a receive buffer larger than
+largest_rx_cluster and will fall back to allocating buffers of
+safest_rx_cluster size if an allocation larger than safest_rx_cluster fails.
+Note that largest_rx_cluster merely establishes a ceiling -- the driver is
+allowed to allocate buffers of smaller sizes.
+.El
+.Pp
+Certain settings and resources for Virtual Functions are dictated
+by the parent Physical Function driver.
+For example, the Physical Function driver limits the number of queues a
+Virtual Function is permitted to use.
+Some of these limits can be adjusted in the firmware configuration file
+used with the Physical Function driver.
+.Pp
+The PAUSE settings on the port of a Virtual Function are inherited from
+the settings of the same port on the Physical Function.
+Virtual Functions cannot modify the setting and track changes made to
+the associated port's setting by the Physical Function driver.
+.Pp
+Receive queues on a Virtual Function always drop packets in response to
+congestion
+.Po
+equivalent to setting
+.Va hw.cxgbe.cong_drop
+to 1
+.Pc .
+.Pp
+The VF driver currently depends on the PF driver.
+As a result, loading the VF driver will also load the PF driver as a
+dependency.
