ice: document RDMA devlink parameters

2023-04-18T01:53:13Z

Commit e523af4ee560 ("net/ice: Add support for enable_iwarp and enable_roce devlink param") added support for the enable_roce and enable_iwarp parameters in the ice driver. It didn't document these parameters in the ice devlink documentation file. Add this documentation, including a note about the mutual exclusion between the two modes.

xdp: bpf_xdp_metadata use EOPNOTSUPP for no driver support

2023-03-22T16:11:09Z

When driver doesn't implement a bpf_xdp_metadata kfunc the fallback implementation returns EOPNOTSUPP, which indicate device driver doesn't implement this kfunc. Currently many drivers also return EOPNOTSUPP when the hint isn't available, which is ambiguous from an API point of view. Instead change drivers to return ENODATA in these cases. There can be natural cases why a driver doesn't provide any hardware info for a specific hint, even on a frame to frame basis (e.g. PTP). Lets keep these cases as separate return codes. When describing the return values, adjust the function kernel-doc layout to get proper rendering for the return values.

Saeed Mahameed says: ==================== mlx5-updates-2023-02-10 1) From Roi and Mark: MultiPort eswitch support MultiPort E-Switch builds on newer hardware's capabilities and introduces a mode where a single E-Switch is used and all the vports and physical ports on the NIC are connected to it. The new mode will allow in the future a decrease in the memory used by the driver and advanced features that aren't possible today. This represents a big change in the current E-Switch implantation in mlx5. Currently, by default, each E-Switch manager manages its E-Switch. Steering rules in each E-Switch can only forward traffic to the native physical port associated with that E-Switch. While there are ways to target non-native physical ports, for example using a bond or via special TC rules. None of the ways allows a user to configure the driver to operate by default in such a mode nor can the driver decide to move to this mode by default as it's user configuration-driven right now. While MultiPort E-Switch single FDB mode is the preferred mode, older generations of ConnectX hardware couldn't support this mode so it was never implemented. Now that there is capable hardware present, start the transition to having this mode by default. Introduce a devlink parameter to control MultiPort Eswitch single FDB mode.
