[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/7] eventdev: header and implementation

Harry van Haaren harry.van.haaren at intel.com
Wed Nov 16 19:00:01 CET 2016


This commit adds the eventdev API header, and the library infrastructure
necessary to work with an eventdev instance.  The header is mostly the same
as discussed on the mailing list, in particular see the libeventdev RFC
thread[1].  A second thread[2] gathered input from the community, which
resulted in various modifications to the header.

Since then, some modifications have been made that were discovered during
the implementation of the software implementation of an eventdev. These
changes are present in this header as suggestions, and feedback on these
changes is welcomed. Some of the main items are:
   - A statistics API, similar to rte_ethdev_stats_get()
   - A dump API, similar to rte_ring_dump()
   - Return value of rte_eventdev_enqueue() changed for dequeue consistency
   - rte_event has implementation/operation field as discussed[3]
   - Add enqueue types using operation[4]

This commit does not change any existing DPDK code - only adds the eventdev
header and infrastructure.

+ * RTE Event Device API
+ *
+ * The Event Device API is composed of two parts:
+ *
+ * - The application-oriented Event API that includes functions to setup
+ *   an event device (configure it, setup its queues, ports and start it), to
+ *   establish the link between queues to port and to receive events, and so on.
+ *
+ * - The driver-oriented Event API that exports a function allowing
+ *   an event poll Mode Driver (PMD) to simultaneously register itself as
+ *   an event device driver.
+ *
+ * Event device components:

+ *
+ *
+ *
+ * Event device: A hardware or software-based event scheduler.
+ *
+ * Event: A unit of scheduling that encapsulates a packet or other datatype
+ * like SW generated event from the core, Crypto work completion notification,
+ * Timer expiry event notification etc as well as metadata.
+ * The metadata includes flow ID, scheduling type, event priority, event_type,
+ * sub_event_type etc.
+ *
+ * Event queue: A queue containing events that are scheduled by the event dev.
+ * An event queue contains events of different flows associated with scheduling
+ * types, such as atomic, ordered, or parallel.
+ *
+ * Event port: An application's interface into the event dev for enqueue and
+ * dequeue operations. Each event port can be linked with one or more
+ * event queues for dequeue operations.
+ *
+ * By default, all the functions of the Event Device API exported by a PMD
+ * are lock-free functions which assume to not be invoked in parallel on
+ * different logical cores to work on the same target object. For instance,
+ * the dequeue function of a PMD cannot be invoked in parallel on two logical
+ * cores to operates on same  event port. Of course, this function
+ * can be invoked in parallel by different logical cores on different ports.
+ * It is the responsibility of the upper level application to enforce this rule.
+ *
+ * In all functions of the Event API, the Event device is
+ * designated by an integer >= 0 named the device identifier *dev_id*
+ *
+ * At the Event driver level, Event devices are represented by a generic
+ * data structure of type *rte_event_dev*.
+ *
+ * Event devices are dynamically registered during the PCI/SoC device probing
+ * phase performed at EAL initialization time.
+ * When an Event device is being probed, a *rte_event_dev* structure and
+ * a new device identifier are allocated for that device. Then, the
+ * event_dev_init() function supplied by the Event driver matching the probed
+ * device is invoked to properly initialize the device.
+ *
+ * The role of the device init function consists of resetting the hardware or
+ * software event driver implementations.
+ *
+ * If the device init operation is successful, the correspondence between
+ * the device identifier assigned to the new device and its associated
+ * *rte_event_dev* structure is effectively registered.
+ * Otherwise, both the *rte_event_dev* structure and the device identifier are
+ * freed.
+ *
+ * The functions exported by the application Event API to setup a device
+ * designated by its device identifier must be invoked in the following order:
+ *     - rte_event_dev_configure()
+ *     - rte_event_queue_setup()
+ *     - rte_event_port_setup()
+ *     - rte_event_port_link()
+ *     - rte_event_dev_start()
+ *
+ * Then, the application can invoke, in any order, the functions
+ * exported by the Event API to schedule events, dequeue events, enqueue events,
+ * change event queue(s) to event port [un]link establishment and so on.
+ *
+ * Application may use rte_event_[queue/port]_default_conf_get() to get the
+ * default configuration to set up an event queue or event port by
+ * overriding few default values.
+ *
+ * If the application wants to change the configuration (i.e. call
+ * rte_event_dev_configure(), rte_event_queue_setup(), or
+ * rte_event_port_setup()), it must call rte_event_dev_stop() first to stop the
+ * device and then do the reconfiguration before calling rte_event_dev_start()
+ * again. The schedule, enqueue and dequeue functions should not be invoked
+ * when the device is stopped.
+ *
+ * Finally, an application can close an Event device by invoking the
+ * rte_event_dev_close() function.
+ *
+ * Each function of the application Event API invokes a specific function
+ * of the PMD that controls the target device designated by its device
+ * identifier.
+ *
+ * For this purpose, all device-specific functions of an Event driver are
+ * supplied through a set of pointers contained in a generic structure of type
+ * *event_dev_ops*.
+ * The address of the *event_dev_ops* structure is stored in the *rte_event_dev*
+ * structure by the device init function of the Event driver, which is
+ * invoked during the PCI/SoC device probing phase, as explained earlier.
+ *
+ * In other words, each function of the Event API simply retrieves the
+ * *rte_event_dev* structure associated with the device identifier and
+ * performs an indirect invocation of the corresponding driver function
+ * supplied in the *event_dev_ops* structure of the *rte_event_dev* structure.
+ *
+ * For performance reasons, the address of the fast-path functions of the
+ * Event driver is not contained in the *event_dev_ops* structure.
+ * Instead, they are directly stored at the beginning of the *rte_event_dev*
+ * structure to avoid an extra indirect memory access during their invocation.
+ *
+ * RTE event device drivers do not use interrupts for enqueue or dequeue
+ * operation. Instead, Event drivers export Poll-Mode enqueue and dequeue
+ * functions to applications.
+ *
+ * An event driven based application has following typical workflow on fastpath:
+ * \code{.c}
+ *	while (1) {
+ *
+ *		rte_event_schedule(dev_id);
+ *
+ *		rte_event_dequeue(...);
+ *
+ *		(event processing)
+ *
+ *		rte_event_enqueue(...);
+ *	}
+ * \endcode
+ *
+ * The *schedule* operation is intended to do event scheduling, and the
+ * *dequeue* operation returns the scheduled events. An implementation
+ * is free to define the semantics between *schedule* and *dequeue*. For
+ * example, a system based on a hardware scheduler can define its
+ * rte_event_schedule() to be an NOOP, whereas a software scheduler can use
+ * the *schedule* operation to schedule events.
+ *
+ * The events are injected to event device through *enqueue* operation by
+ * event producers in the system. The typical event producers are ethdev
+ * subsystem for generating packet events, core(SW) for generating events based
+ * on different stages of application processing, cryptodev for generating
+ * crypto work completion notification etc
+ *
+ * The *dequeue* operation gets one or more events from the event ports.
+ * The application process the events and send to downstream event queue through
+ * rte_event_enqueue() if it is an intermediate stage of event processing, on
+ * the final stage, the application may send to different subsystem like ethdev
+ * to send the packet/event on the wire using ethdev rte_eth_tx_burst() API.
