The existing method of reserving unicast filter count leads to wasted MCAM entries if the functionality is not used or fewer entries are used. Furthermore, the amount of MCAM entries differs amongst Octeon SoCs. We implemented a means to adjust the UC filter count via devlink, allowing for better use of MCAM entries across Netdev apps. commands: To get the current unicast filter count # devlink dev param show pci/0002:02:00.0 name unicast_filter_count To change/set the unicast filter count # devlink dev param set pci/0002:02:00.0 name unicast_filter_count value 5 cmode runtime Signed-off-by: Sai Krishna <saikrishnag@marvell.com> Reviewed-by: Simon Horman <horms@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

|
=========================
|
|
|
|
This document describes the devlink features implemented by the ``octeontx2 AF, PF and VF``
|
|
device drivers.
|
|
|
|
Parameters
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
The ``octeontx2 PF and VF`` drivers implement the following driver-specific parameters.

|
|
- Description
|
|
* - ``mcam_count``
|
|
- u16
|
|
- runtime
|
|
- Select number of match CAM entries to be allocated for an interface.
|
|
The same is used for ntuple filters of the interface. Supported by
|
|
PF and VF drivers.
|
|
|
|
The ``octeontx2 AF`` driver implements the following driver-specific parameters.

- Description
|
|
* - ``dwrr_mtu``
|
|
- u32
|
|
- runtime
|
|
- Use to set the quantum which hardware uses for scheduling among transmit queues.
|
|
Hardware uses weighted DWRR algorithm to schedule among all transmit queues.
|
|
|
|
The ``octeontx2 PF`` driver implements the following driver-specific parameters.

|
- Description
|
|
* - ``unicast_filter_count``
|
|
- u8
|
|
- runtime
|
|
- Set the maximum number of unicast filters that can be programmed for
|
|
the device. This can be used to achieve better device resource
|
|
utilization, avoiding over consumption of unused MCAM table entries.
