After OS requests to down a link on a physical network port, the traffic is no longer being processed but the physical link with a link partner is still established. Currently there is a feature (Link down on close) which allows to physically bring the link down (after OS request). With this patch new feature with similar capability is introduced: TOTAL_PORT_SHUTDOWN Allows to physically disable the link on the NIC's port. If enabled, (after link down request from the OS) no link, traffic or led activity is possible on that port. If I40E_FLAG_TOTAL_PORT_SHUTDOWN is enabled, the I40E_FLAG_LINK_DOWN_ON_CLOSE_ENABLED must be explicitly forced to true and cannot be disabled at that time. The functionalities are exclusive in terms of configuration, but they also have similar behavior (allowing to disable physical link of the port), with following differences: - LINK_DOWN_ON_CLOSE_ENABLED is configurable at host OS run-time and is supported by whole family of 7xx Intel Ethernet Controllers - TOTAL_PORT_SHUTDOWN may be enabled only before OS loads (in BIOS) only if motherboard's BIOS and NIC's FW has support of it - when LINK_DOWN_ON_CLOSE_ENABLED is used, the link is being brought down by sending phy_type=0 to NIC's FW - when TOTAL_PORT_SHUTDOWN is used, phy_type is not altered, instead the link is being brought down by clearing bit (I40E_AQ_PHY_ENABLE_LINK) in abilities field of i40e_aq_set_phy_config structure Introduced changes: - new private flag I40E_FLAG_TOTAL_PORT_SHUTDOWN for handling the feature - probe of NVM if the feature was enabled at driver's port initialization - special handling on link-down procedure to let FW physically shutdown the port if the feature was enabled Signed-off-by: Arkadiusz Kubalewski <arkadiusz.kubalewski@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Aleksandr Loktionov <aleksandr.loktionov@intel.com> Tested-by: Andrew Bowers <andrewx.bowers@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Tony Nguyen <anthony.l.nguyen@intel.com> |
