Devlink Resource
================
``devlink`` provides the ability for drivers to register resources, which
can allow administrators to see the device restrictions for a given
resource, as well as how much of the given resource is currently
in use. Additionally, these resources can optionally have configurable size.
This could enable the administrator to limit the number of resources that
are used.
For example, the ``netdevsim`` driver enables ``/IPv4/fib`` and
``/IPv4/fib-rules`` as resources to limit the number of IPv4 FIB entries and
rules for a given device.
Resource Ids
============
Each resource is represented by an id, and contains information about its
current size and related sub resources. To access a sub resource, you
specify the path of the resource. For example ``/IPv4/fib`` is the id for
the ``fib`` sub-resource under the ``IPv4`` resource.
Generic Resources
=================
Generic resources are used to describe resources that can be shared by multiple
device drivers and their description must be added to the following table:
.. list-table:: List of Generic Resources
:widths: 10 90
* - Name
- Description
* - ``physical_ports``
- A limited capacity of physical ports that the switch ASIC can support
example usage
-------------
The resources exposed by the driver can be observed, for example:
.. code:: shell
$devlink resource show pci/0000:03:00.0
pci/0000:03:00.0:
name kvd size 245760 unit entry
resources:
name linear size 98304 occ 0 unit entry size_min 0 size_max 147456 size_gran 128
name hash_double size 60416 unit entry size_min 32768 size_max 180224 size_gran 128
name hash_single size 87040 unit entry size_min 65536 size_max 212992 size_gran 128
Some resource's size can be changed. Examples:
.. code:: shell
$devlink resource set pci/0000:03:00.0 path /kvd/hash_single size 73088
$devlink resource set pci/0000:03:00.0 path /kvd/hash_double size 74368
The changes do not apply immediately, this can be validated by the 'size_new'
attribute, which represents the pending change in size. For example:
.. code:: shell
$devlink resource show pci/0000:03:00.0
pci/0000:03:00.0:
name kvd size 245760 unit entry size_valid false
resources:
name linear size 98304 size_new 147456 occ 0 unit entry size_min 0 size_max 147456 size_gran 128
name hash_double size 60416 unit entry size_min 32768 size_max 180224 size_gran 128
name hash_single size 87040 unit entry size_min 65536 size_max 212992 size_gran 128
Note that changes in resource size may require a device reload to properly
take effect.
Port-level Resources and Full Dump
==================================
In addition to device-level resources, ``devlink`` also supports port-level
resources. These resources are associated with a specific devlink port rather
than the device as a whole.
To list resources for all devlink devices and ports:
.. code:: shell
$ devlink resource show
pci/0000:03:00.0:
name max_local_SFs size 128 unit entry dpipe_tables none
name max_external_SFs size 128 unit entry dpipe_tables none
pci/0000:03:00.0/196608:
name max_SFs size 128 unit entry dpipe_tables none
pci/0000:03:00.0/196609:
name max_SFs size 128 unit entry dpipe_tables none
pci/0000:03:00.1:
name max_local_SFs size 128 unit entry dpipe_tables none
name max_external_SFs size 128 unit entry dpipe_tables none
pci/0000:03:00.1/196708:
name max_SFs size 128 unit entry dpipe_tables none
pci/0000:03:00.1/196709:
name max_SFs size 128 unit entry dpipe_tables none
To show resources for a specific port:
.. code:: shell
$ devlink resource show pci/0000:03:00.0/196608
pci/0000:03:00.0/196608:
name max_SFs size 128 unit entry dpipe_tables none
Resource Scope Filtering
========================
When dumping resources for all devices, ``devlink resource show`` accepts
an optional ``scope`` parameter to restrict the response to device-level
resources, port-level resources, or both (the default).
To dump only device-level resources across all devices:
.. code:: shell
$ devlink resource show scope dev
pci/0000:03:00.0:
name max_local_SFs size 128 unit entry dpipe_tables none
name max_external_SFs size 128 unit entry dpipe_tables none
pci/0000:03:00.1:
name max_local_SFs size 128 unit entry dpipe_tables none
name max_external_SFs size 128 unit entry dpipe_tables none
To dump only port-level resources across all devices:
.. code:: shell
$ devlink resource show scope port
pci/0000:03:00.0/196608:
name max_SFs size 128 unit entry dpipe_tables none
pci/0000:03:00.0/196609:
name max_SFs size 128 unit entry dpipe_tables none
pci/0000:03:00.1/196708:
name max_SFs size 128 unit entry dpipe_tables none
pci/0000:03:00.1/196709:
name max_SFs size 128 unit entry dpipe_tables none
Note that port-level resources are read-only.
