NTB: Alter MW API to support multi-ports devices Multi-port NTB devices permit to share a memory between all accessible peers. Memory Windows API is altered to correspondingly initialize and map memory windows for such devices: ntb_mw_count(pidx); - number of inbound memory windows, which can be allocated for shared buffer with specified peer device. ntb_mw_get_align(pidx, widx); - get alignment and size restriction parameters to properly allocate inbound memory region. ntb_peer_mw_count(); - get number of outbound memory windows. ntb_peer_mw_get_addr(widx); - get mapping address of an outbound memory window If hardware supports inbound translation configured on the local ntb port: ntb_mw_set_trans(pidx, widx); - set translation address of allocated inbound memory window so a peer device could access it. ntb_mw_clear_trans(pidx, widx); - clear the translation address of an inbound memory window. If hardware supports outbound translation configured on the peer ntb port: ntb_peer_mw_set_trans(pidx, widx); - set translation address of a memory window retrieved from a peer device ntb_peer_mw_clear_trans(pidx, widx); - clear the translation address of an outbound memory window Signed-off-by: Serge Semin <fancer.lancer@gmail.com> Acked-by: Allen Hubbe <Allen.Hubbe@dell.com> Signed-off-by: Jon Mason <jdmason@kudzu.us>

NTB: Add Messaging NTB API Some IDT NTB-capable PCIe-switches have message registers to communicate with peer devices. This patch adds new NTB API callback methods, which can be used to utilize these registers functionality: ntb_msg_count(); - get number of message registers ntb_msg_inbits(); - get bitfield of inbound message registers status ntb_msg_outbits(); - get bitfield of outbound message registers status ntb_msg_read_sts(); - read the inbound and outbound message registers status ntb_msg_clear_sts(); - clear status bits of message registers ntb_msg_set_mask(); - mask interrupts raised by status bits of message registers. ntb_msg_clear_mask(); - clear interrupts mask bits of message registers ntb_msg_read(midx, *pidx); - read message register with specified index, additionally getting peer port index which data received from ntb_msg_write(midx, pidx); - write data to the specified message register sending it to the passed peer device connected over a pidx port ntb_msg_event(); - notify driver context of a new message event Of course there is hardware which doesn't support Message registers, so this API is made optional.

NTB: Add indexed ports NTB API There is some NTB hardware, which can combine more than just two domains over NTB. For instance, some IDT PCIe-switches can have NTB-functions activated on more than two-ports. The different domains are distinguished by ports they are connected to. So the new port-related methods are added to the NTB API: ntb_port_number() - return local port ntb_peer_port_count() - return number of peers local port can connect to ntb_peer_port_number(pdix) - return port number by it index ntb_peer_port_idx(port) - return port index by it number Current test-drivers aren't changed much. They still support two-ports devices for the time being while multi-ports hardware drivers aren't added. By default port-related API is declared for two-ports hardware. So corresponding hardware drivers won't need to implement it. Signed-off-by: Serge Semin <fancer.lancer@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jon Mason <jdmason@kudzu.us>
