[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 1/4] eventdev: add eth Tx adapter APIs

Nikhil Rao nikhil.rao at intel.com
Fri Jul 6 08:42:06 CEST 2018


The ethernet Tx adapter abstracts the transmit stage of an
event driven packet processing application. The transmit
stage may be implemented with eventdev PMD support or use a
rte_service function implemented in the adapter. These APIs
provide a common configuration and control interface and
an transmit API for the eventdev PMD implementation.

The transmit port is specified using mbuf::port. The transmit
queue is specified using the rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_txq_set()
function. The mbuf will specify a queue ID in the future
(http://mails.dpdk.org/archives/dev/2018-February/090651.html)
at which point this function will be replaced with a macro.

This patch series adds the event ethernet Tx adapter which is
based on a previous RFC 
 * RFCv1 - http://mails.dpdk.org/archives/dev/2018-May/102936.html
 * RFCv2 - http://mails.dpdk.org/archives/dev/2018-June/104075.html

RFC -> V1:
=========

* Move port and tx queue id to mbuf from mbuf private area. (Jerin Jacob)

* Support for PMD transmit function. (Jerin Jacob)

* mbuf change has been replaced with rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_txq_set(). 
The goal is to align with the mbuf change for a qid field. 
(http://mails.dpdk.org/archives/dev/2018-February/090651.html). Once the mbuf
change is available, the function can be replaced with a macro with no impact
to applications.

* Various cleanups (Jerin Jacob)

+ * @file
+ *
+ * RTE Event Ethernet Tx Adapter
+ *
+ * The event ethernet Tx adapter provides configuration and data path APIs
+ * for the ethernet transmit stage of an event driven packet processing
+ * application. These APIs abstract the implementation of the transmit stage
+ * and allow the the application to use eventdev PMD support or a common
+ * implementation.
+ *
+ * In the common implementation, the application enqueues mbufs to the adapter
+ * which runs as a rte_service function. The service function dequeues events
+ * from its event port and transmits the mbufs referenced by these events.
+ *
+ * The ethernet Tx event adapter APIs are:
+ *
+ *  - rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_create()
+ *  - rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_create_ext()
+ *  - rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_free()
+ *  - rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_start()
+ *  - rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_stop()
+ *  - rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_queue_add()
+ *  - rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_queue_del()
+ *  - rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_stats_get()
+ *  - rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_stats_reset()
+ *  - rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_enqueue()
+ *  - rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_event_port_get()
+ *  - rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_service_id_get()
+ *
+ * The application creates the adapter using
+ * rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_create() or rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_create_ext().
+ *
+ * The adapter will use the common implementation when the eventdev PMD
+ * does not have the RTE_EVENT_ETH_TX_ADAPTER_CAP_INTERNAL_PORT capability.
+ * The common implementation uses an event port that is created using the port
+ * configuration parameter passed to rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_create(). The
+ * application can get the port identifier using
+ * rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_event_port_get() and must link an event queue to
+ * this port.
+ *
+ * If the eventdev PMD has the RTE_EVENT_ETH_TX_ADAPTER_CAP_INTERNAL_PORT
+ * flags set, Tx adapter events should be enqueued using the
+ * rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_enqueue() function, else the application should
+ * use rte_event_enqueue_burst().
+ *
+ * Transmit queues can be added and deleted from the adapter using
+ * rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_queue_add()/del() APIs respectively.
+ *
+ * The application can start and stop the adapter using the
+ * rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_start/stop() calls.
+ *
+ * The common adapter implementation uses an EAL service function as described
+ * before and its execution is controlled using the rte_service APIs. The
+ * rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_service_id_get()
+ * function can be used to retrieve the adapter's service function ID.
+ *
+ * The ethernet port and transmit queue index to transmit the mbuf on are
+ * specified in the mbuf using rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_txq_set().
