Function Documentation

uint8_t rte_rawdev_count ( void  )

Get the total number of raw devices that have been successfully initialised.

Returns
The total number of usable raw devices.
Examples:
examples/ioat/ioatfwd.c.
uint16_t rte_rawdev_get_dev_id ( const char *  name)

Get the device identifier for the named raw device.

Parameters
nameRaw device name to select the raw device identifier.
Returns
Returns raw device identifier on success.
  • <0: Failure to find named raw device.
Examples:
examples/vhost/ioat.c.
int rte_rawdev_socket_id ( uint16_t  dev_id)

Return the NUMA socket to which a device is connected.

Parameters
dev_idThe identifier of the device.
Returns
The NUMA socket id to which the device is connected or a default of zero if the socket could not be determined. -(-EINVAL) dev_id value is out of range.
int rte_rawdev_info_get ( uint16_t  dev_id,
struct rte_rawdev_info *  dev_info,
size_t  dev_private_size 
)

Retrieve the contextual information of a raw device.

Parameters
dev_idThe identifier of the device.
[out]dev_infoA pointer to a structure of type rte_rawdev_info to be filled with the contextual information of the device. The dev_info->dev_private field should point to an appropriate buffer space for holding the device- specific info for that hardware. If the dev_private field is set to NULL, then the device-specific info function will not be called and only basic information about the device will be returned. This can be used to safely query the type of a rawdev instance without needing to know the size of the private data to return.
dev_private_sizeThe length of the memory space pointed to by dev_private in dev_info. This should be set to the size of the expected private structure to be returned, and may be checked by drivers to ensure the expected struct type is provided.
Returns
  • 0: Success, driver updates the contextual information of the raw device
  • <0: Error code returned by the driver info get function.
Examples:
examples/ioat/ioatfwd.c, examples/ntb/ntb_fwd.c, and examples/vhost/ioat.c.
int rte_rawdev_configure ( uint16_t  dev_id,
struct rte_rawdev_info *  dev_conf,
size_t  dev_private_size 
)

Configure a raw device.

This function must be invoked first before any other function in the API. This function can also be re-invoked when a device is in the stopped state.

The caller may use rte_rawdev_info_get() to get the capability of each resources available for this raw device.

Parameters
dev_idThe identifier of the device to configure.
dev_confThe raw device configuration structure encapsulated into rte_rawdev_info object. It is assumed that the opaque object has enough information which the driver/implementation can use to configure the device. It is also assumed that once the configuration is done, a queue_id type field can be used to refer to some arbitrary internal representation of a queue.
dev_private_sizeThe length of the memory space pointed to by dev_private in dev_info. This should be set to the size of the expected private structure to be used by the driver, and may be checked by drivers to ensure the expected struct type is provided.
Returns
  • 0: Success, device configured.
  • <0: Error code returned by the driver configuration function.
Examples:
examples/ioat/ioatfwd.c, examples/ntb/ntb_fwd.c, and examples/vhost/ioat.c.
int rte_rawdev_queue_conf_get ( uint16_t  dev_id,
uint16_t  queue_id,
rte_rawdev_obj_t  queue_conf,
size_t  queue_conf_size 
)

Retrieve the current configuration information of a raw queue designated by its queue_id from the raw driver for a raw device.

This function intended to be used in conjunction with rte_raw_queue_setup() where caller needs to set up the queue by overriding few default values.

Parameters
dev_idThe identifier of the device.
queue_idThe index of the raw queue to get the configuration information. The value must be in the range [0, nb_raw_queues - 1] previously supplied to rte_rawdev_configure().
[out]queue_confThe pointer to the default raw queue configuration data.
queue_conf_sizeThe size of the structure pointed to by queue_conf
Returns
  • 0: Success, driver updates the default raw queue configuration data.
  • <0: Error code returned by the driver info get function.

uint64_t *  attr_value 
)

Get an attribute value from implementation. Attribute is an opaque handle agreed upon between application and PMD.

Implementations are expected to maintain an array of attribute-value pairs based on application calls. Memory management for this structure is shared responsibility of implementation and application.

Parameters
dev_idThe identifier of the device to configure.
attr_nameOpaque object representing an attribute in implementation.
attr_value[out] Opaque response to the attribute value. In case of error, this remains untouched. This is double pointer of void type.
Returns
0 for success !0 Error; attr_value remains untouched in case of error.
Examples:
examples/ntb/ntb_fwd.c.
int rte_rawdev_set_attr ( uint16_t  dev_id,
const char *  attr_name,
const uint64_t  attr_value 
)

Set an attribute value. Attribute is an opaque handle agreed upon between application and PMD.

Parameters
dev_idThe identifier of the device to configure.
attr_nameOpaque object representing an attribute in implementation.
attr_valueValue of the attribute represented by attr_name
Returns
0 for success !0 Error
Examples:
examples/ntb/ntb_fwd.c.
int rte_rawdev_enqueue_buffers ( uint16_t  dev_id,
struct rte_rawdev_buf **  buffers,
unsigned int  count,
rte_rawdev_obj_t  context 
)

Enqueue a stream of buffers to the device.

Rather than specifying a queue, this API passes along an opaque object to the driver implementation. That object can be a queue or any other contextual information necessary for the device to enqueue buffers.

Parameters
dev_idThe identifier of the device to configure.
buffersCollection of buffers for enqueuing
countCount of buffers to enqueue
contextOpaque context information.
Returns
>=0 for buffers enqueued !0 for failure. Whether partial enqueue is failure or success is defined between app and driver implementation.
Examples:
examples/ntb/ntb_fwd.c.
int rte_rawdev_dequeue_buffers ( uint16_t  dev_id,
struct rte_rawdev_buf **  buffers,
unsigned int  count,
rte_rawdev_obj_t  context 
)

Dequeue a stream of buffers from the device.

Rather than specifying a queue, this API passes along an opaque object to the driver implementation. That object can be a queue or any other contextual information necessary for the device to dequeue buffers.

Application should have allocated enough space to store count response buffers. Releasing buffers dequeued is responsibility of the application.

Parameters
dev_idThe identifier of the device to configure.
buffersCollection of buffers dequeued
countMax buffers expected to be dequeued
contextOpaque context information.
Returns
>=0 for buffers dequeued !0 for failure. Whether partial enqueue is failure or success is defined between app and driver implementation.
Examples:
examples/ntb/ntb_fwd.c.
int rte_rawdev_xstats_names_get ( uint16_t  dev_id,
struct rte_rawdev_xstats_name xstats_names,
unsigned int  size 
)

Retrieve names of extended statistics of a raw device.

Parameters
dev_idThe identifier of the raw device.
[out]xstats_namesBlock of memory to insert names into. Must be at least size in capacity. If set to NULL, function returns required capacity.
sizeCapacity of xstats_names (number of names).
Returns
  • positive value lower or equal to size: success. The return value is the number of entries filled in the stats table.
  • positive value higher than size: error, the given statistics table is too small. The return value corresponds to the size that should be given to succeed. The entries in the table are not valid and shall not be used by the caller.
  • negative value on error: -ENODEV for invalid dev_id -ENOTSUP if the device doesn't support this function.
Examples:
examples/ioat/ioatfwd.c, and examples/ntb/ntb_fwd.c.
int rte_rawdev_xstats_get ( uint16_t  dev_id,
const unsigned int  ids[],
uint64_t  values[],
unsigned int  n 
)

Retrieve extended statistics of a raw device.

Parameters
dev_idThe identifier of the device.
idsThe id numbers of the stats to get. The ids can be got from the stat position in the stat list from rte_rawdev_get_xstats_names(), or by using rte_rawdev_get_xstats_by_name()
[out]valuesThe values for each stats request by ID.
nThe number of stats requested
Returns
  • positive value: number of stat entries filled into the values array
  • negative value on error: -ENODEV for invalid dev_id -ENOTSUP if the device doesn't support this function.
Examples:
examples/ioat/ioatfwd.c, and examples/ntb/ntb_fwd.c.
uint64_t rte_rawdev_xstats_by_name_get ( uint16_t  dev_id,
const char *  name,
unsigned int *  id 
)

Retrieve the value of a single stat by requesting it by name.

Parameters
dev_idThe identifier of the device
nameThe stat name to retrieve
[out]idIf non-NULL, the numerical id of the stat will be returned, so that further requests for the stat can be got using rte_rawdev_xstats_get, which will be faster as it doesn't need to scan a list of names for the stat. If the stat cannot be found, the id returned will be (unsigned)-1.
Returns
  • positive value or zero: the stat value
  • negative value: -EINVAL if stat not found, -ENOTSUP if not supported.
int rte_rawdev_xstats_reset ( uint16_t  dev_id,
const uint32_t  ids[],
uint32_t  nb_ids 
)

Reset the values of the xstats of the selected component in the device.

Parameters
dev_idThe identifier of the device
idsSelects specific statistics to be reset. When NULL, all statistics will be reset. If non-NULL, must point to array of at least nb_ids size.
nb_idsThe number of ids available from the ids array. Ignored when ids is NULL.
Returns
  • zero: successfully reset the statistics to zero
  • negative value: -EINVAL invalid parameters, -ENOTSUP if not supported.
