Tony Nguyen says: ==================== ice: support devlink subfunction Michal Swiatkowski says: Currently ice driver does not allow creating more than one networking device per physical function. The only way to have more hardware backed netdev is to use SR-IOV. Following patchset adds support for devlink port API. For each new pcisf type port, driver allocates new VSI, configures all resources needed, including dynamically MSIX vectors, program rules and registers new netdev. This series supports only one Tx/Rx queue pair per subfunction. Example commands: devlink port add pci/0000:31:00.1 flavour pcisf pfnum 1 sfnum 1000 devlink port function set pci/0000:31:00.1/1 hw_addr 00:00:00:00:03:14 devlink port function set pci/0000:31:00.1/1 state active devlink port function del pci/0000:31:00.1/1 Make the port representor and eswitch code generic to support subfunction representor type. VSI configuration is slightly different between VF and SF. It needs to be reflected in the code. * '100GbE' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tnguy/next-queue: ice: subfunction activation and base devlink ops ice: basic support for VLAN in subfunctions ice: support subfunction devlink Tx topology ice: implement netdevice ops for SF representor ice: check if SF is ready in ethtool ops ice: don't set target VSI for subfunction ice: create port representor for SF ice: make representor code generic ice: implement netdev for subfunction ice: base subfunction aux driver ice: allocate devlink for subfunction ice: treat subfunction VSI the same as PF VSI ice: add basic devlink subfunctions support ice: export ice ndo_ops functions ice: add new VSI type for subfunctions ==================== Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20240906223010.2194591-1-anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
