Linux kernel driver for Elastic Network Adapter (ENA) family: | ||
============================================================= | ||
|
||
Overview: | ||
========= | ||
ENA is a networking interface designed to make good use of modern CPU | ||
features and system architectures. | ||
|
||
The ENA device exposes a lightweight management interface with a | ||
minimal set of memory mapped registers and extendable command set | ||
through an Admin Queue. | ||
|
||
The driver supports a range of ENA devices, is link-speed independent | ||
(i.e., the same driver is used for 10GbE, 25GbE, 40GbE, etc.), and has | ||
a negotiated and extendable feature set. | ||
|
||
Some ENA devices support SR-IOV. This driver is used for both the | ||
SR-IOV Physical Function (PF) and Virtual Function (VF) devices. | ||
|
||
ENA devices enable high speed and low overhead network traffic | ||
processing by providing multiple Tx/Rx queue pairs (the maximum number | ||
is advertised by the device via the Admin Queue), a dedicated MSI-X | ||
interrupt vector per Tx/Rx queue pair, adaptive interrupt moderation, | ||
and CPU cacheline optimized data placement. | ||
|
||
The ENA driver supports industry standard TCP/IP offload features such | ||
as checksum offload and TCP transmit segmentation offload (TSO). | ||
Receive-side scaling (RSS) is supported for multi-core scaling. | ||
|
||
The ENA driver and its corresponding devices implement health | ||
monitoring mechanisms such as watchdog, enabling the device and driver | ||
to recover in a manner transparent to the application, as well as | ||
debug logs. | ||
|
||
Some of the ENA devices support a working mode called Low-latency | ||
Queue (LLQ), which saves several more microseconds. | ||
|
||
Supported PCI vendor ID/device IDs: | ||
=================================== | ||
1d0f:0ec2 - ENA PF | ||
1d0f:1ec2 - ENA PF with LLQ support | ||
1d0f:ec20 - ENA VF | ||
1d0f:ec21 - ENA VF with LLQ support | ||
|
||
ENA Source Code Directory Structure: | ||
==================================== | ||

responsible for the handling all the management | ||
(admin) communication between the device and the | ||
driver. | ||

ena_admin_defs.h - Definition of ENA management interface. | ||
ena_eth_io_defs.h - Definition of ENA data path interface. | ||
ena_common_defs.h - Common definitions for ena_com layer. | ||
ena_regs_defs.h - Definition of ENA PCI memory-mapped (MMIO) registers. | ||
ena_netdev.[ch] - Main Linux kernel driver. | ||
ena_syfsfs.[ch] - Sysfs files. | ||
ena_ethtool.c - ethtool callbacks. | ||
ena_pci_id_tbl.h - Supported device IDs. | ||
|
||
Management Interface: | ||
===================== | ||
ENA management interface is exposed by means of: | ||
- PCIe Configuration Space | ||
- Device Registers | ||
- Admin Queue (AQ) and Admin Completion Queue (ACQ) | ||
- Asynchronous Event Notification Queue (AENQ) | ||
|
||
ENA device MMIO Registers are accessed only during driver | ||
initialization and are not involved in further normal device | ||
operation. | ||
|
||
AQ is used for submitting management commands, and the | ||
results/responses are reported asynchronously through ACQ. | ||
|
||
ENA introduces a very small set of management commands with room for | ||
vendor-specific extensions. Most of the management operations are | ||
framed in a generic Get/Set feature command. | ||
|
||
The following admin queue commands are supported: | ||
- Create I/O submission queue | ||
- Create I/O completion queue | ||
- Destroy I/O submission queue | ||
- Destroy I/O completion queue | ||
- Get feature | ||
- Set feature | ||
- Configure AENQ | ||
- Get statistics | ||
|
||
Refer to ena_admin_defs.h for the list of supported Get/Set Feature | ||
properties. | ||
|
||
The Asynchronous Event Notification Queue (AENQ) is a uni-directional | ||
queue used by the ENA device to send to the driver events that cannot | ||
be reported using ACQ. AENQ events are subdivided into groups. Each | ||
group may have multiple syndromes, as shown below | ||
|
||
The events are: | ||
Group Syndrome | ||
Link state change - X - | ||
Fatal error - X - | ||
Notification Suspend traffic | ||
Notification Resume traffic | ||
Keep-Alive - X - | ||
|
||
ACQ and AENQ share the same MSI-X vector. | ||
|
||
Keep-Alive is a special mechanism that allows monitoring of the | ||
device's health. The driver maintains a watchdog (WD) handler which, | ||
if fired, logs the current state and statistics then resets and | ||
restarts the ENA device and driver. A Keep-Alive event is delivered by | ||
the device every second. The driver re-arms the WD upon reception of a | ||
Keep-Alive event. A missed Keep-Alive event causes the WD handler to | ||
fire. | ||
|
||
Data Path Interface: | ||
==================== | ||
I/O operations are based on Tx and Rx Submission Queues (Tx SQ and Rx | ||
SQ correspondingly). Each SQ has a completion queue (CQ) associated | ||
with it. | ||
|
||
The SQs and CQs are implemented as descriptor rings in contiguous | ||
physical memory. | ||
|
||
The ENA driver supports two Queue Operation modes for Tx SQs: | ||
- Regular mode | ||
* In this mode the Tx SQs reside in the host's memory. The ENA | ||
device fetches the ENA Tx descriptors and packet data from host | ||
memory. | ||
- Low Latency Queue (LLQ) mode or "push-mode". | ||
* In this mode the driver pushes the transmit descriptors and the | ||
first 128 bytes of the packet directly to the ENA device memory | ||
space. The rest of the packet payload is fetched by the | ||
device. For this operation mode, the driver uses a dedicated PCI | ||
device memory BAR, which is mapped with write-combine capability. | ||
|
||
The Rx SQs support only the regular mode. | ||
|
||
Note: Not all ENA devices support LLQ, and this feature is negotiated | ||
with the device upon initialization. If the ENA device does not | ||
support LLQ mode, the driver falls back to the regular mode. | ||
|
||
The driver supports multi-queue for both Tx and Rx. This has various | ||
benefits: | ||
- Reduced CPU/thread/process contention on a given Ethernet interface. | ||
- Cache miss rate on completion is reduced, particularly for data | ||
cache lines that hold the sk_buff structures. | ||
- Increased process-level parallelism when handling received packets. | ||
- Increased data cache hit rate, by steering kernel processing of | ||
packets to the CPU, where the application thread consuming the | ||
packet is running. | ||
- In hardware interrupt re-direction. | ||
|
||
Interrupt Modes: | ||
================ | ||
The driver assigns a single MSI-X vector per queue pair (for both Tx | ||
and Rx directions). The driver assigns an additional dedicated MSI-X vector | ||
for management (for ACQ and AENQ). | ||
|
||
Management interrupt registration is performed when the Linux kernel | ||
probes the adapter, and it is de-registered when the adapter is | ||
removed. I/O queue interrupt registration is performed when the Linux | ||
interface of the adapter is opened, and it is de-registered when the | ||
interface is closed. | ||
|
||
The management interrupt is named: | ||
ena-mgmnt@pci:<PCI domain:bus:slot.function> | ||
and for each queue pair, an interrupt is named: | ||
<interface name>-Tx-Rx-<queue index> | ||
|
||
The ENA device operates in auto-mask and auto-clear interrupt | ||
modes. That is, once MSI-X is delivered to the host, its Cause bit is | ||
automatically cleared and the interrupt is masked. The interrupt is | ||
unmasked by the driver after NAPI processing is complete. | ||
|
||
Interrupt Moderation: | ||
===================== | ||
ENA driver and device can operate in conventional or adaptive interrupt | ||
moderation mode. | ||
|
||
In conventional mode the driver instructs device to postpone interrupt | ||
posting according to static interrupt delay value. The interrupt delay | ||
value can be configured through ethtool(8). The following ethtool | ||
parameters are supported by the driver: tx-usecs, rx-usecs | ||
|
||
In adaptive interrupt moderation mode the interrupt delay value is | ||
updated by the driver dynamically and adjusted every NAPI cycle | ||
according to the traffic nature. | ||
|
||
By default ENA driver applies adaptive coalescing on Rx traffic and | ||
conventional coalescing on Tx traffic. | ||
|
||
Adaptive coalescing can be switched on/off through ethtool(8) | ||
adaptive_rx on|off parameter. | ||
|
||
The driver chooses interrupt delay value according to the number of | ||
bytes and packets received between interrupt unmasking and interrupt | ||
posting. The driver uses interrupt delay table that subdivides the | ||
range of received bytes/packets into 5 levels and assigns interrupt | ||
delay value to each level. | ||
|
||
The user can enable/disable adaptive moderation, modify the interrupt | ||
delay table and restore its default values through sysfs. | ||
|
||
The rx_copybreak is initialized by default to ENA_DEFAULT_RX_COPYBREAK | ||
and can be configured by the ETHTOOL_STUNABLE command of the | ||
SIOCETHTOOL ioctl. | ||
|
||
SKB: | ||
The driver-allocated SKB for frames received from Rx handling using | ||
NAPI context. The allocation method depends on the size of the packet. | ||
If the frame length is larger than rx_copybreak, napi_get_frags() | ||
is used, otherwise netdev_alloc_skb_ip_align() is used, the buffer | ||
content is copied (by CPU) to the SKB, and the buffer is recycled. | ||
|
||
Statistics: | ||
=========== | ||
The user can obtain ENA device and driver statistics using ethtool. | ||
The driver can collect regular or extended statistics (including | ||
per-queue stats) from the device. | ||
|
||
In addition the driver logs the stats to syslog upon device reset. | ||
|
||
MTU: | ||
==== | ||
The driver supports an arbitrarily large MTU with a maximum that is | ||
negotiated with the device. The driver configures MTU using the | ||
SetFeature command (ENA_ADMIN_MTU property). The user can change MTU | ||
via ip(8) and similar legacy tools. | ||
|
||
Stateless Offloads: | ||
=================== | ||
The ENA driver supports: | ||
- TSO over IPv4/IPv6 | ||
- TSO with ECN | ||
- IPv4 header checksum offload | ||
- TCP/UDP over IPv4/IPv6 checksum offloads | ||
|
||
RSS: | ||
==== | ||
- The ENA device supports RSS that allows flexible Rx traffic | ||
steering. | ||
- Toeplitz and CRC32 hash functions are supported. | ||
- Different combinations of L2/L3/L4 fields can be configured as | ||
inputs for hash functions. | ||
- The driver configures RSS settings using the AQ SetFeature command | ||
(ENA_ADMIN_RSS_HASH_FUNCTION, ENA_ADMIN_RSS_HASH_INPUT and | ||
ENA_ADMIN_RSS_REDIRECTION_TABLE_CONFIG properties). | ||
- If the NETIF_F_RXHASH flag is set, the 32-bit result of the hash | ||
function delivered in the Rx CQ descriptor is set in the received | ||
SKB. | ||
- The user can provide a hash key, hash function, and configure the | ||
indirection table through ethtool(8). | ||
|
||
DATA PATH: | ||
========== | ||
Tx: | ||
--- | ||
end_start_xmit() is called by the stack. This function does the following: | ||
- Maps data buffers (skb->data and frags). | ||
- Populates ena_buf for the push buffer (if the driver and device are | ||
in push mode.) | ||
- Prepares ENA bufs for the remaining frags. | ||
- Allocates a new request ID from the empty req_id ring. The request | ||
ID is the index of the packet in the Tx info. This is used for | ||
out-of-order TX completions. | ||
- Adds the packet to the proper place in the Tx ring. | ||
- Calls ena_com_prepare_tx(), an ENA communication layer that converts | ||
the ena_bufs to ENA descriptors (and adds meta ENA descriptors as | ||
needed.) | ||
* This function also copies the ENA descriptors and the push buffer | ||
to the Device memory space (if in push mode.) | ||
- Writes doorbell to the ENA device. | ||
- When the ENA device finishes sending the packet, a completion | ||
interrupt is raised. | ||
- The interrupt handler schedules NAPI. | ||
- The ena_clean_tx_irq() function is called. This function handles the | ||
completion descriptors generated by the ENA, with a single | ||
completion descriptor per completed packet. | ||
* req_id is retrieved from the completion descriptor. The tx_info of | ||
the packet is retrieved via the req_id. The data buffers are | ||
unmapped and req_id is returned to the empty req_id ring. | ||
* The function stops when the completion descriptors are completed or | ||
the budget is reached. | ||
|
||
Rx: | ||
--- | ||
- When a packet is received from the ENA device. | ||
- The interrupt handler schedules NAPI. | ||
- The ena_clean_rx_irq() function is called. This function calls | ||
ena_rx_pkt(), an ENA communication layer function, which returns the | ||
number of descriptors used for a new unhandled packet, and zero if | ||
no new packet is found. | ||
- Then it calls the ena_clean_rx_irq() function. | ||
- ena_eth_rx_skb() checks packet length: | ||
* If the packet is small (len < rx_copybreak), the driver allocates | ||
a SKB for the new packet, and copies the packet payload into the | ||
SKB data buffer. | ||
- In this way the original data buffer is not passed to the stack | ||
and is reused for future Rx packets. | ||
* Otherwise the function unmaps the Rx buffer, then allocates the | ||
new SKB structure and hooks the Rx buffer to the SKB frags. | ||
- The new SKB is updated with the necessary information (protocol, | ||
checksum hw verify result, etc.), and then passed to the network | ||
stack, using the NAPI interface function napi_gro_receive(). |
