47PCI Configuration Space
48-----------------------
49
50Each switch instance registers as a PCI device with PCI configuration space:

80SECTION 3: Memory-Mapped Register Space
81=======================================
82
83There are two memory-mapped BARs.  BAR0 maps device register space and is
840x2000 in size.  BAR1 maps MSI-X vector and PBA tables and is also 0x2000 in
85size, allowing for 256 MSI-X vectors.
86
87All registers are 4 or 8 bytes long.  It is assumed host software will access 4
88byte registers with one 4-byte access, and 8 byte registers with either two
894-byte accesses or a single 8-byte access.  In the case of two 4-byte accesses,
90access must be lower and then upper 4-bytes, in that order.
91
92BAR0 device register space is organized as follows:
93
94	offset		description
95	------------------------------------------------------
96	0x0000-0x000f	Bogus registers to catch misbehaving
97			drivers.  Writes do nothing.  Reads
98			back as 0xDEADBABE.
99	0x0010-0x00ff	Test registers
100	0x0300-0x03ff	General purpose registers
101	0x1000-0x1fff	Descriptor control
102
103Holes in register space are reserved.  Writes to reserved registers do nothing.
104Reads to reserved registers read back as 0.
105
106No fancy stuff like write-combining is enabled on any of the registers.
107
108BAR1 MSI-X register space is organized as follows:
109
110	offset		description
111	------------------------------------------------------
112	0x0000-0x0fff	MSI-X vector table (256 vectors total)
113	0x1000-0x1fff	MSI-X PBA table
114
115
116SECTION 4: Interrupts, DMA, and Endianness
117==========================================
118
119PCI Interrupts
120--------------
121
122The device supports only MSI-X interrupts.  BAR1 memory-mapped region contains
123the MSI-X vector and PBA tables, with support for up to 256 MSI-X vectors.
124
125The vector assignment is:
126
127	vector		description
128	-----------------------------------------------------
129	0		Command descriptor ring completion
130	1		Event descriptor ring completion
131	2		Test operation completion
132	3		RSVD
133	4-255		Tx and Rx descriptor ring completion
134			  Tx vector is even
135			  Rx vector is odd
136
137A MSI-X vector table entry is 16 bytes:
138
139	field		offset	width	description
140	-------------------------------------------------------------
141	lower_addr	0x0	4	[31:2] message address[31:2]
142					[1:0] Rsvd (4 byte alignment
143						    required)
144	upper_addr	0x4	4	[31:19] Rsvd
145					[14:0] message address[46:32]
146	data		0x8	4	message data[31:0]
147	control		0xc	4	[31:1] Rsvd
148					[0] mask (0 = enable,
149						  1 = masked)
150
151Software should install the Interrupt Service Routine (ISR) before any ports
152are enabled or any commands are issued on the command ring.
153
154DMA Operations
155--------------
156
157DMA operations are used for packet DMA to/from the CPU, command and event
158processing.  Command processing includes statistical counters and table dumps,
159table insertion/deletion, and more.  Event processing provides an async
160notification method for device-originating events.  Each DMA operation has a
161set of control registers to manage a descriptor ring.  The descriptor rings are
162allocated from contiguous host DMA-able memory and registers specify the rings
163base address, size and current head and tail indices.  Software always writes
164the head, and hardware always writes the tail.
165
166The higher-order bit of DMA_DESC_COMP_ERR is used to mark hardware completion
167of a descriptor.  Software will clear this bit when posting a descriptor to the
168ring, and hardware will set this bit when the descriptor is complete.
169
170Descriptor ring sizes must be a power of 2 and range from 2 to 64K entries.
171Descriptor rings' base address must be 8-byte aligned.  Descriptors must be
172packed within ring.  Each descriptor in each ring must also be aligned on an 8
173byte boundary.  Each descriptor ring will have these registers:
174
175	DMA_DESC_xxx_BASE_ADDR, offset 0x1000 + (x * 32), 64-bit, (R/W)
176	DMA_DESC_xxx_SIZE, offset 0x1008 + (x * 32), 32-bit, (R/W)
177	DMA_DESC_xxx_HEAD, offset 0x100c + (x * 32), 32-bit, (R/W)
178	DMA_DESC_xxx_TAIL, offset 0x1010 + (x * 32), 32-bit, (R)
179	DMA_DESC_xxx_CTRL, offset 0x1014 + (x * 32), 32-bit, (W)
180	DMA_DESC_xxx_CREDITS, offset 0x1018 + (x * 32), 32-bit, (R/W)
181	DMA_DESC_xxx_RSVD1, offset 0x101c + (x * 32), 32-bit, (R/W)
182
183Where x is descriptor ring index:
184
185	index		ring
186	--------------------
187	0		CMD
188	1		EVENT
189	2		TX (port 0)
190	3		RX (port 0)
191	4		TX (port 1)
192	5		RX (port 1)
193	.
194	.
195	.
196	124		TX (port 61)
197	125		RX (port 61)
198	126		Resv
199	127		Resv
200
201Writing BASE_ADDR or SIZE will reset HEAD and TAIL to zero.  HEAD cannot be
202written past TAIL.  To do so would wrap the ring.  An empty ring is when HEAD
203== TAIL.  A full ring is when HEAD is one position behind TAIL.  Both HEAD and
204TAIL increment and modulo wrap at the ring size.
205
206CTRL register bits:
207
208	bit	name		description
209	------------------------------------------------------------------------
210	[0]	CTRL_RESET	Reset the descriptor ring
211	[1:31]	Reserved
212
213All descriptor types share some common fields:
214
215	field			width	description
216	-------------------------------------------------------------------
217	DMA_DESC_BUF_ADDR	8	Phys addr of desc payload, 8-byte
218					aligned
219	DMA_DESC_COOKIE		8	Desc cookie for completion matching,
220					upper-most bit is reserved
221	DMA_DESC_BUF_SIZE	2	Desc payload size in bytes
222	DMA_DESC_TLV_SIZE	2	Desc payload total size in bytes
223					used for TLVs.  Must be <=
224					DMA_DESC_BUF_SIZE.
225	DMA_DESC_COMP_ERR	2	Completion status of associated
226					desc payload.  High order bit is
227					clear on new descs, toggled by
228					hw for completed items.
229
230To support forward- and backward-compatibility, descriptor and completion
231payloads are specified in TLV format.  Fields are packed with Type=field name,
232Length=field length, and Value=field value.  Software will ignore unknown fields
233filled in by the switch.  Likewise, the switch will ignore unknown fields
234filled in by software.
235
236Descriptor payload buffer is 8-byte aligned and TLVs are 8-byte aligned.  The
237value within a TLV is also 8-byte aligned.  The (packed, 8 byte) TLV header is:
238
239	field	width	description
240	-----------------------------
241	type	4	TLV type
242	len	2	TLV value length
243	pad	2	Reserved
244
245The alignment requirements for descriptors and TLVs are to avoid unaligned
246access exceptions in software.  Note that the payload for each TLV is also
2478 byte aligned.
248
249Figure 1 shows an example descriptor buffer with two TLVs.

280Interrupt credits
281^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
282
283MSI-X vectors used for descriptor ring completions use a credit mechanism for
284efficient device, PCIe bus, OS and driver operations.  Each descriptor ring has
285a credit count which represents the number of outstanding descriptors to be
286processed by the driver.  As the device marks descriptors complete, the credit
287count is incremented.  As the driver processes those outstanding descriptors,
288it returns credits back to the device.  This way, the device knows the driver's
289progress and can make decisions about when to fire the next interrupt or not.
290When the credit count is zero, and the first descriptors are posted for the
291driver, a single interrupt is fired.  Once the interrupt is fired, the
292interrupt is disabled (auto-masked*).  In response to the interrupt, the driver
293will process descriptors and PIO write a returned credit value for that
294descriptor ring.  If the driver returns all credits (the driver caught up with
295the device and there is no outstanding work), then the interrupt is unmasked,
296but not fired.  If only partial credits are returned, the interrupt remains
297masked but the device generates an interrupt, signaling the driver that more
298outstanding work is available.
299
300(* this masking is unrelated to to the MSI-X interrupt mask register)
301
302Endianness
303----------
304
305Device registers are hard-coded to little-endian (LE).  The driver should
306convert to/from host endianess to LE for device register accesses.
307
308Descriptors are LE.  Descriptor buffer TLVs will have LE type and length
309fields, but the value field can either be LE or network-byte-order, depending
310on context.  TLV values containing network packet data will be in network-byte
311order.  A TLV value containing a field or mask used to compare against network
312packet data is network-byte order.  For example, flow match fields (and masks)
313are network-byte-order since they're matched directly, byte-by-byte, against
314network packet data.  All non-network-packet TLV multi-byte values will be LE.
315
316TLV values in network-byte-order are designated with (N).
317
318
319SECTION 5: Test Registers
320=========================
321
322Rocker has several test registers to support troubleshooting register access,
323interrupt generation, and DMA operations:
324
325	TEST_REG, offset 0x0010, 32-bit (R/W)
326	TEST_REG64, offset 0x0018, 64-bit (R/W)
327	TEST_IRQ, offset 0x0020, 32-bit (R/W)
328	TEST_DMA_ADDR, offset 0x0028, 64-bit (R/W)
329	TEST_DMA_SIZE, offset 0x0030, 32-bit (R/W)
330	TEST_DMA_CTRL, offset 0x0034, 32-bit (R/W)
331
332Reads to TEST_REG and TEST_REG64 will read a value equal to twice the last
333value written to the register.  The 32-bit and 64-bit versions are for testing
33432-bit and 64-bit host accesses.
335
336A vector can be written to TEST_IRQ and the device will generate an interrupt
337for that vector.
338
339To test basic DMA operations, allocate a DMA-able host buffer and put the
340buffer address into TEST_DMA_ADDR and size into TEST_DMA_SIZE.  Then, write to
341TEST_DMA_CTRL to manipulate the buffer contents.  TEST_DMA_CTRL operations are:
342
343	operation		value	description
344	-----------------------------------------------------------
345	TEST_DMA_CTRL_CLEAR	1	clear buffer
346	TEST_DMA_CTRL_FILL	2	fill buffer bytes with 0x96
347	TEST_DMA_CTRL_INVERT	4	invert bytes in buffer
348
349Various buffer address and sizes should be tested to verify no address boundary
350issue exists.  In particular, buffers that start on odd-8-byte boundary and/or
351span multiple PAGE sizes should be tested.
352
353
354SECTION 6: Ports
355================
356
357Physical and Logical Ports
358------------------------------------
359
360The switch supports up to 62 physical (front-panel) ports.  Register
361PORT_PHYS_COUNT returns the actual number of physical ports available:
362
363	PORT_PHYS_COUNT, offset 0x0304, 32-bit, (R)
364
365In addition to front-panel ports, the switch supports logical ports for
366tunnels.
367
368Front-panel ports and logical tunnel ports are mapped into a single 32-bit port
369space.  A special CPU port is assigned port 0.  The front-panel ports are
370mapped to ports 1-62.  A special loopback port is assigned port 63.  Logical
371tunnel ports are assigned ports 0x0001000-0x0001ffff.
372To summarize the port assignments:
373
374	port			mapping
375	-------------------------------------------------------
376	0			CPU port (for packets to/from host CPU)
377	1-62			front-panel physical ports
378	63			loopback port
379	64-0x0000ffff		RSVD
380	0x00010000-0x0001ffff	logical tunnel ports
381	0x00020000-0xffffffff	RSVD
382
383Physical Port Mode
384------------------
385
386Switch front-panel ports operate in a mode.  Currently, the only mode is
387OF-DPA.  OF-DPA[1] mode is based on OpenFlow Data Plane Abstraction (OF-DPA)
388Abstract Switch Specification, Version 1.0, from Broadcom Corporation.  To
389set/get the mode for front-panel ports, see port settings, below.
390
391Port Settings
392-------------
393
394Link status for all front-panel ports is available via PORT_PHYS_LINK_STATUS:
395
396	PORT_PHYS_LINK_STATUS, offset 0x0310, 64-bit, (R)
397
398	Value is port bitmap.  Bits 0 and 63 always read 0.  Bits 1-62
399	read 1 for link UP and 0 for link DOWN for respective front-panel ports.
400
401Other properties for front-panel ports are available via DMA CMD descriptors:
402
403	Get PORT_SETTINGS descriptor:
404
405		field		width	description
406		----------------------------------------------
407		PORT_SETTINGS	2	CMD_GET

433		AUTONEG		1	1 = enabled, 0 = disabled
434		MACADDR		6	Port MAC address
435		MODE		1	0 = OF-DPA
436
437Port Enable
438-----------
439
440Front-panel ports are initially disabled, which means port ingress and egress
441packets will be dropped.  To enable or disable a port, use PORT_PHYS_ENABLE:
442
443	PORT_PHYS_ENABLE: offset 0x0318, 64-bit, (R/W)
444
445	Value is bitmap of first 64 ports.  Bits 0 and 63 are ignored
446	and always read as 0.  Write 1 to enable port; write 0 to disable it.
447	Default is 0.
448
449
450SECTION 7: Switch Control
451=========================
452
453This section covers switch-wide register settings.
454
455Control
456-------
457
458This register is used for low level control of the switch.

464	[0]	CONTROL_RESET	If set, device will perform reset
465	[1:31]	Reserved
466
467Switch ID
468---------
469
470The switch has a SWITCH_ID to be used by software to uniquely identify the
471switch:
472
473	SWITCH_ID: offset 0x0320, 64-bit, (R)
474
475	Value is opaque to switch software and no special encoding is implied.
476
477
478SECTION 8: Events
479=================
480
481Non-I/O asynchronous events from the device are notified to the host using the
482event ring.  The TLV structure for events is:
483
484	field		width	description
485	---------------------------------------------------
486	TYPE		4	Event type, one of:

505-------------------
506
507When a packet ingresses on a port and the source MAC/VLAN isn't known to the
508device, the device will generate this event.  In response to the event, the
509driver should install to the device the MAC/VLAN on the port into the bridge
510table.  Once installed, the MAC/VLAN is known on the port and this event will
511no longer be generated.

521SECTION 9: CPU Packet Processing
522================================
523
524Ingress packets directed to the host CPU for further processing are delivered
525in the DMA RX ring.  Likewise, host CPU originating packets destined to egress
526on switch ports are scheduled by software using the DMA TX ring.
527
528Tx Packet Processing
529--------------------
530
531Software schedules packets for egress on switch ports using the DMA TX ring.  A
532TX descriptor buffer describes the packet location and size in host DMA-able
533memory, the destination port, and any hardware-offload functions (such as L3
534payload checksum offload).  Software then bumps the descriptor head to signal
535hardware of new Tx work.  In response, hardware will DMA read Tx descriptors up
536to head, DMA read descriptor buffer and packet data, perform offloading
537functions, and finally frame packet on wire (network).  Once packet processing
538is complete, hardware will writeback status to descriptor(s) to signal to
539software that Tx is complete and software resources (e.g. skb) backing packet
540can be released.
541
542Figure 2 shows an example 3-fragment packet queued with one Tx descriptor.  A
543TLV is used for each packet fragment.

617rather directed to the host CPU for further processing are delivered in the DMA
618RX ring.  Rx descriptor buffers are allocated by software and placed on the
619ring.  Hardware will fill Rx descriptor buffers with packet data, write the
620completion, and signal to software that a new packet is ready.  Since Rx packet
621size is not known a-priori, the Rx descriptor buffer must be allocated for
622worst-case packet size.  A single Rx descriptor will contain the entire Rx
623packet data in one RX_FRAG.  Other Rx TLVs describe and hardware offloads
624performed on the packet, such as checksum validation.

659SECTION 10: OF-DPA Mode
660======================
661
662OF-DPA mode allows the switch to offload flow packet processing functions to
663hardware.  An OpenFlow controller would communicate with an OpenFlow agent
664installed on the switch.  The OpenFlow agent would (directly or indirectly)
665communicate with the Rocker switch driver, which in turn would program switch
666hardware with flow functionality, as defined in OF-DPA.  The block diagram is:
667
668		+–––––––––––––––----–––+
669		|        OF            |
670		|  Remote Controller   |

684		|   Rocker Switch  |
685		+––––––––––––––––––+
686
687To participate in flow functions, ports must be configure for OF-DPA mode
688during switch initialization.

690OF-DPA Flow Table Interface
691---------------------------
692
693There are commands to add, modify, delete, and get stats of flow table entries.
694The commands are issued using the DMA CMD descriptor ring.  The following
695commands are defined:
696
697	CMD_ADD:		add an entry to flow table
698	CMD_MOD:		modify an entry in flow table
699	CMD_DEL:		delete an entry from flow table
700	CMD_GET_STATS:		get stats for flow entry

926entries.  The commands are issued using the DMA CMD descriptor ring.  The
927following commands are defined:
928
929	CMD_ADD:		add an entry to group table
930	CMD_MOD:		modify an entry in group table
931	CMD_DEL:		delete an entry from group table
932	CMD_GET_STATS:		get stats for group entry
933
934TLVs for add and modify commands are:

971	-----------------------------------------------------------
972	FLOW_GROUP_CMD		2	CMD_[DEL|GET_STATS]
973	FLOW_GROUP_ID		2	Flow group ID
