Messages in this thread | | | From | Moshe Shemesh <> | Subject | [PATCH net-next RFC v3 00/14] Add devlink reload action option | Date | Sun, 30 Aug 2020 18:27:20 +0300 |
| |
Introduce new option on devlink reload API to enable the user to select the reload action required. Complete support for all actions in mlx5. The following reload actions are supported: driver_reinit: driver entities re-initialization, applying devlink-param and devlink-resource values. fw_activate: firmware activate. fw_activate_no_reset: Activate new firmware image without any reset. (also known as: firmware live patching).
Each driver which support this command should expose the reload actions supported. The uAPI is backward compatible, if the reload action option is omitted from the reload command, the driver reinit action will be used. Note that when required to do firmware activation some drivers may need to reload the driver. On the other hand some drivers may need to reset the firmware to reinitialize the driver entities. Therefore, the devlink reload command returns the actions which were actually done.
Add reload actions counters to hold the history per reload action type. For example, the number of times fw_activate has been done on this device since the driver module was added or if the firmware activation was done with or without reset.
Patch 1 adds the new API reload action option to devlink. Patch 2 adds reload actions counters. Patch 3 exposes the reload actions counters on devlink dev get. Patches 4-9 add support on mlx5 for devlink reload action fw_activate and handle the firmware reset events. Patches 10-11 add devlink enable remote dev reset parameter and use it in mlx5. Patches 12-13 mlx5 add devlink reload action fw_activate_no_reset support and event handling. Patch 14 adds documentation file devlink-reload.rst
command examples: $devlink dev reload pci/0000:82:00.0 action driver_reinit reload_actions_done: driver_reinit
$devlink dev reload pci/0000:82:00.0 action fw_activate reload_actions_done: driver_reinit fw_activate
$ devlink dev reload pci/0000:82:00.0 action fw_activate no_reset reload_actions_done: fw_activate_no_reset
v2 -> v3: - Replace fw_live_patch action by fw_activate_no_reset - Devlink reload returns the actions done over netlink reply - Add reload actions counters
v1 -> v2: - Instead of reload levels driver,fw_reset,fw_live_patch have reload actions driver_reinit,fw_activate,fw_live_patch - Remove driver default level, the action driver_reinit is the default action for all drivers
