devlink: Add packet trap infrastructure Add the basic packet trap infrastructure that allows device drivers to register their supported packet traps and trap groups with devlink. Each driver is expected to provide basic information about each supported trap, such as name and ID, but also the supported metadata types that will accompany each packet trapped via the trap. The currently supported metadata type is just the input port, but more will be added in the future. For example, output port and traffic class. Trap groups allow users to set the action of all member traps. In addition, users can retrieve per-group statistics in case per-trap statistics are too narrow. In the future, the trap group object can be extended with more attributes, such as policer settings which will limit the amount of traffic generated by member traps towards the CPU. Beside registering their packet traps with devlink, drivers are also expected to report trapped packets to devlink along with relevant metadata. devlink will maintain packets and bytes statistics for each packet trap and will potentially report the trapped packet with its metadata to user space via drop monitor netlink channel. The interface towards the drivers is simple and allows devlink to set the action of the trap. Currently, only two actions are supported: 'trap' and 'drop'. When set to 'trap', the device is expected to provide the sole copy of the packet to the driver which will pass it to devlink. When set to 'drop', the device is expected to drop the packet and not send a copy to the driver. In the future, more actions can be added, such as 'mirror'.

devlink: Support for pipeline debug (dpipe) The pipeline debug is used to export the pipeline abstractions for the main objects - tables, headers and entries. The only support for set is for changing the counter parameter on specific table. The basic structures: Header - can represent a real protocol header information or internal metadata. Generic protocol headers like IPv4 can be shared between drivers. Each driver can add local headers. Field - part of a header. Can represent protocol field or specific ASIC metadata field. Hardware special metadata fields can be mapped to different resources, for example switch ASIC ports can have internal number which from the systems point of view is mapped to netdeivce ifindex. Match - represent specific match rule. Can describe match on specific field or header. The header index should be specified as well in order to support several header instances of the same type (tunneling). Action - represents specific action rule. Actions can describe operations on specific field values for example like set, increment, etc. And header operation like add and delete. Value - represents value which can be associated with specific match or action. Table - represents a hardware block which can be described with match/ action behavior. The match/action can be done on the packets data or on the internal metadata that it gathered along the packets traversal throw the pipeline which is vendor specific and should be exported in order to provide understanding of ASICs behavior. Entry - represents single record in a specific table. The entry is identified by specific combination of values for match/action. Prior to accessing the tables/entries the drivers provide the header/ field data base which is used by driver to user-space. The data base is split between the shared headers and unique headers.

Match - represent specific match rule. Can describe match on specific field or header. The header index should be specified as well in order to support several header instances of the same type (tunneling). Action - represents specific action rule. Actions can describe operations on specific field values for example like set, increment, etc. And header operation like add and delete. Value - represents value which can be associated with specific match or action. Table - represents a hardware block which can be described with match/ action behavior. The match/action can be done on the packets data or on the internal metadata that it gathered along the packets traversal throw the pipeline which is vendor specific and should be exported in order to provide understanding of ASICs behavior. Entry - represents single record in a specific table. The entry is identified by specific combination of values for match/action. Prior to accessing the tables/entries the drivers provide the header/ field data base which is used by driver to user-space. The data base is split between the shared headers and unique headers.

devlink: add version reporting to devlink info API ethtool -i has a few fixed-size fields which can be used to report firmware version and expansion ROM version. Unfortunately, modern hardware has more firmware components. There is usually some datapath microcode, management controller, PXE drivers, and a CPLD load. Running ethtool -i on modern controllers reveals the fact that vendors cram multiple values into firmware version field. Here are some examples from systems I could lay my hands on quickly: tg3: "FFV20.2.17 bc 5720-v1.39" i40e: "6.01 0x800034a4 1.1747.0" nfp: "0.0.3.5 0.25 sriov-2.1.16 nic" Add a new devlink API to allow retrieving multiple versions, and provide user-readable name for those versions. While at it break down the versions into three categories: - fixed - this is the board/fixed component version, usually vendors report information like the board version in the PCI VPD, but it will benefit from naming and common API as well; - running - this is the running firmware version; - stored - this is firmware in the flash, after firmware update this value will reflect the flashed version, while the running version may only be updated after reboot. v3: - add per-type helpers instead of using the special argument (Jiri). RFCv2: - remove the nesting in attr DEVLINK_ATTR_INFO_VERSIONS (now versions are mixed with other info attrs)l - have the driver report versions from the same callback as other info.

devlink: Add packet trap infrastructure Add the basic packet trap infrastructure that allows device drivers to register their supported packet traps and trap groups with devlink. Each driver is expected to provide basic information about each supported trap, such as name and ID, but also the supported metadata types that will accompany each packet trapped via the trap. The currently supported metadata type is just the input port, but more will be added in the future. For example, output port and traffic class. Trap groups allow users to set the action of all member traps. In addition, users can retrieve per-group statistics in case per-trap statistics are too narrow. In the future, the trap group object can be extended with more attributes, such as policer settings which will limit the amount of traffic generated by member traps towards the CPU. Beside registering their packet traps with devlink, drivers are also expected to report trapped packets to devlink along with relevant metadata. devlink will maintain packets and bytes statistics for each packet trap and will potentially report the trapped packet with its metadata to user space via drop monitor netlink channel. The interface towards the drivers is simple and allows devlink to set the action of the trap. Currently, only two actions are supported: 'trap' and 'drop'. When set to 'trap', the device is expected to provide the sole copy of the packet to the driver which will pass it to devlink. When set to 'drop', the device is expected to drop the packet and not send a copy to the driver. In the future, more actions can be added, such as 'mirror'.
