This document is a guide to help users use pci-epf-ntb function driver
|
||
|
|
and ntb_hw_epf host driver for NTB functionality. The list of steps to
|
||
|
|
be followed in the host side and EP side is given below. For the hardware
|
||
|
|
configuration and internals of NTB using configurable endpoints see
|

Endpoint Device
|
||
|
|
===============
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Endpoint Controller Devices
|
||
|
|
---------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
For implementing NTB functionality at least two endpoint controller devices
|
||
|
|
are required.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To find the list of endpoint controller devices in the system::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# ls /sys/class/pci_epc/
|
||
|
|
2900000.pcie-ep 2910000.pcie-ep
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If PCI_ENDPOINT_CONFIGFS is enabled::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# ls /sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/controllers
|
||
|
|
2900000.pcie-ep 2910000.pcie-ep
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Endpoint Function Drivers
|
||
|
|
-------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To find the list of endpoint function drivers in the system::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# ls /sys/bus/pci-epf/drivers
|
||
|
|
pci_epf_ntb pci_epf_ntb
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
If PCI_ENDPOINT_CONFIGFS is enabled::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# ls /sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/functions
|
||
|
|
pci_epf_ntb pci_epf_ntb
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Creating pci-epf-ntb Device
|
||
|
|
----------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
PCI endpoint function device can be created using the configfs. To create
|
||
|
|
pci-epf-ntb device, the following commands can be used::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# mount -t configfs none /sys/kernel/config
|
||
|
|
# cd /sys/kernel/config/pci_ep/
|
||
|
|
# mkdir functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The "mkdir func1" above creates the pci-epf-ntb function device that will
|
||
|
|
be probed by pci_epf_ntb driver.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The PCI endpoint framework populates the directory with the following
|
||
|
|
configurable fields::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# ls functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1
|
||
|
|
baseclass_code deviceid msi_interrupts pci-epf-ntb.0
|
||
|
|
progif_code secondary subsys_id vendorid
|
||
|
|
cache_line_size interrupt_pin msix_interrupts primary
|
||
|
|
revid subclass_code subsys_vendor_id
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The PCI endpoint function driver populates these entries with default values
|
||
|
|
when the device is bound to the driver. The pci-epf-ntb driver populates
|
||
|
|
vendorid with 0xffff and interrupt_pin with 0x0001::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# cat functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/vendorid
|
||
|
|
0xffff
|
||
|
|
# cat functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/interrupt_pin
|
||
|
|
0x0001
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Configuring pci-epf-ntb Device
|
||
|
|
-------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The user can configure the pci-epf-ntb device using its configfs entry. In order
|
||
|
|
to change the vendorid and the deviceid, the following
|
||
|
|
commands can be used::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# echo 0x104c > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/vendorid
|
||
|
|
# echo 0xb00d > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/deviceid
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In order to configure NTB specific attributes, a new sub-directory to func1
|
||
|
|
should be created::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# mkdir functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The NTB function driver will populate this directory with various attributes
|
||
|
|
that can be configured by the user::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# ls functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/
|
||
|
|
db_count mw1 mw2 mw3 mw4 num_mws
|
||
|
|
spad_count
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A sample configuration for NTB function is given below::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# echo 4 > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/db_count
|
||
|
|
# echo 128 > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/spad_count
|
||
|
|
# echo 2 > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/num_mws
|
||
|
|
# echo 0x100000 > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/mw1
|
||
|
|
# echo 0x100000 > functions/pci_epf_ntb/func1/pci_epf_ntb.0/mw2
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Binding pci-epf-ntb Device to EP Controller
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
NTB function device should be attached to two PCI endpoint controllers
|
||
|
|
connected to the two hosts. Use the 'primary' and 'secondary' entries
|
||
|
|
inside NTB function device to attach one PCI endpoint controller to
|
||
|
|
primary interface and the other PCI endpoint controller to the secondary
|
||
|
|
interface::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# ln -s controllers/2900000.pcie-ep/ functions/pci-epf-ntb/func1/primary
|
||
|
|
# ln -s controllers/2910000.pcie-ep/ functions/pci-epf-ntb/func1/secondary
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Once the above step is completed, both the PCI endpoint controllers are ready to
|
||
|
|
establish a link with the host.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Start the Link
|
||
|
|
--------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In order for the endpoint device to establish a link with the host, the _start_
|
||
|
|
field should be populated with '1'. For NTB, both the PCI endpoint controllers
|
||
|
|
should establish link with the host::
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
# echo 1 > controllers/2900000.pcie-ep/start
|
||
|
|
# echo 1 > controllers/2910000.pcie-ep/start
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

Using ntb_hw_epf Device
|
||
|
|
-----------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The host side software follows the standard NTB software architecture in Linux.
|
||
|
|
All the existing client side NTB utilities like NTB Transport Client and NTB
|
||
|
|
Netdev, NTB Ping Pong Test Client and NTB Tool Test Client can be used with NTB
|
||
|
|
function device.
