1. Overview
|
||||
|
||||
1.1 What is SR-IOV
|
||||
|
||||
Single Root I/O Virtualization (SR-IOV) is a PCI Express Extended
|
||||
capability which makes one physical device appear as multiple virtual
|
||||
devices. The physical device is referred to as Physical Function (PF)
|
||||
while the virtual devices are referred to as Virtual Functions (VF).
|
||||
Allocation of the VF can be dynamically controlled by the PF via
|
||||
registers encapsulated in the capability. By default, this feature is
|
||||
not enabled and the PF behaves as traditional PCIe device. Once it's
|
||||
turned on, each VF's PCI configuration space can be accessed by its own
|
||||
Bus, Device and Function Number (Routing ID). And each VF also has PCI
|
||||
Memory Space, which is used to map its register set. VF device driver
|
||||
operates on the register set so it can be functional and appear as a
|
||||
real existing PCI device.
|
||||
|
||||
2. User Guide
|
||||
|
||||
2.1 How can I enable SR-IOV capability
|
||||
|
||||
The device driver (PF driver) will control the enabling and disabling
|
||||
of the capability via API provided by SR-IOV core. If the hardware
|
||||
has SR-IOV capability, loading its PF driver would enable it and all
|
||||
VFs associated with the PF.
|
||||
|
||||
2.2 How can I use the Virtual Functions
|
||||
|
||||
The VF is treated as hot-plugged PCI devices in the kernel, so they
|
||||
should be able to work in the same way as real PCI devices. The VF
|
||||
requires device driver that is same as a normal PCI device's.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Developer Guide
|
||||
|
||||
3.1 SR-IOV API
|
||||
|
||||
To enable SR-IOV capability:
|
||||
int pci_enable_sriov(struct pci_dev *dev, int nr_virtfn);
|
||||
'nr_virtfn' is number of VFs to be enabled.
|
||||
|
||||
To disable SR-IOV capability:
|
||||
void pci_disable_sriov(struct pci_dev *dev);
|
||||
|
||||
To notify SR-IOV core of Virtual Function Migration:
|
||||
irqreturn_t pci_sriov_migration(struct pci_dev *dev);
|
||||
|
||||
3.2 Usage example
|
||||
|
||||
Following piece of code illustrates the usage of the SR-IOV API.
|
||||
|
||||
static int __devinit dev_probe(struct pci_dev *dev, const struct pci_device_id *id)
|
||||
{
|
||||
pci_enable_sriov(dev, NR_VIRTFN);
|
||||
|
||||
...
|
||||
|
||||
return 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
static void __devexit dev_remove(struct pci_dev *dev)
|
||||
{
|
||||
pci_disable_sriov(dev);
|
||||
|
||||
...
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
static int dev_suspend(struct pci_dev *dev, pm_message_t state)
|
||||
{
|
||||
...
|
||||
|
||||
return 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
static int dev_resume(struct pci_dev *dev)
|
||||
{
|
||||
...
|
||||
|
||||
return 0;
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
static void dev_shutdown(struct pci_dev *dev)
|
||||
{
|
||||
...
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
static struct pci_driver dev_driver = {
|
||||
.name = "SR-IOV Physical Function driver",
|
||||
.id_table = dev_id_table,
|
||||
.probe = dev_probe,
|
||||
.remove = __devexit_p(dev_remove),
|
||||
.suspend = dev_suspend,
|
||||
.resume = dev_resume,
|
||||
.shutdown = dev_shutdown,
|
||||
};
