revert commit46ae40b94d("net/mlx5: Let user configure io_eq_size param") revert commita6cb08daa3("net/mlx5: Let user configure event_eq_size param") revert commit5546040619("net/mlx5: Let user configure max_macs param") The EQE parameters are applicable to more drivers, they should be configured via standard API, probably ethtool. Example of another driver needing something similar: https://lore.kernel.org/all/1633454136-14679-3-git-send-email-sbhatta@marvell.com/ The last param for "max_macs" is probably fine but the documentation is severely lacking. The meaning and implications for changing the param need to be stated. Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20211026152939.3125950-1-kuba@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>

mlx5 devlink support
|
|
====================
|
|
|
|
This document describes the devlink features implemented by the ``mlx5``
|
|
device driver.
|
|
|
|
Parameters

|
.. list-table:: Generic parameters implemented
|
|
|
|
* - Name
|
|
- Mode
|
|
* - ``enable_roce``
|
|
- driverinit
|
|
|
|
The ``mlx5`` driver also implements the following driver-specific
|
|
parameters.

|
|
|
|
* - Name
|
|
- Type
|
|
- Mode
|
|
- Description
|
|
* - ``flow_steering_mode``
|
|
- string
|
|
- runtime
|
|
- Controls the flow steering mode of the driver
|
|
|
|
* ``dmfs`` Device managed flow steering. In DMFS mode, the HW
|
|
steering entities are created and managed through firmware.
|
|
* ``smfs`` Software managed flow steering. In SMFS mode, the HW
|
|
steering entities are created and manage through the driver without
|
|
firmware intervention.
|
|
* - ``fdb_large_groups``
|
|
- u32
|
|
- driverinit
|
|
- Control the number of large groups (size > 1) in the FDB table.
|
|
|
|
* The default value is 15, and the range is between 1 and 1024.
|
|
|
|
The ``mlx5`` driver supports reloading via ``DEVLINK_CMD_RELOAD``
