[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v3] ethdev: add tm support for shaper config in pkt mode

Wed Apr 22 09:59:44 CEST 2020


From: Nithin Dabilpuram <ndabilpuram at marvell.com>

Some NIC hardware support shaper to work in packet mode i.e
shaping or ratelimiting traffic is in packets per second (PPS) as
opposed to default bytes per second (BPS). Hence this patch
adds support to configure shared or private shaper in packet mode,
provide rate in PPS and add related tm capabilities in port/level/node
capability structures.

This patch also updates tm port/level/node capability structures with
exiting features of scheduler wfq packet mode, scheduler wfq byte mode
and private/shared shaper byte mode.

SoftNIC PMD is also updated with new capabilities.

v2..v3:
- Fix typo's
- Add shaper_shared_(packet, byte)_mode_supported in level and node cap
- Fix comment in pkt_length_adjust.
- Move rte_eth_softnic_tm.c capability update to patch 1/4 to 
  avoid compilations issues in node and level cap array in softnicpmd.

  ../drivers/net/softnic/rte_eth_softnic_tm.c:782:4: error: field name not in record or union initializer
   {.nonleaf = {

v1..v2:
- Add seperate capability for shaper and scheduler pktmode and bytemode.
- Add packet_mode field in struct rte_tm_shaper_params to indicate
packet mode shaper profile.
