Detailed Description

RTE PMD Driver Registration Interface

This file manages the list of device drivers.

Definition in file rte_dev.h.

Macro Definition Documentation

#define RTE_PMD_REGISTER_KMOD_DEP (   name,
  str 
)
Value:
static const char DRV_EXP_TAG(name, kmod_dep_export)[] \
__attribute__((used)) = str

Advertise the list of kernel modules required to run this driver

This string lists the kernel modules required for the devices associated to a PMD. The format of each line of the string is: "<device-pattern> <kmod-expression>".

The possible formats for the device pattern are: "*" all devices supported by this driver "pci:*" all PCI devices supported by this driver "pci:v8086:d*:sv*:sd*" all PCI devices supported by this driver whose vendor id is 0x8086.

The format of the kernel modules list is a parenthesized expression containing logical-and (&) and logical-or (|).

The device pattern and the kmod expression are separated by a space.

Example:

  • "* igb_uio | uio_pci_generic | vfio"

Typedef Documentation

typedef int(* rte_dev_cmp_t) (const struct rte_device *dev, const void *data)

Device comparison function.

This type of function is used to compare an rte_device with arbitrary data.

Parameters
devDevice handle.
dataData to compare against. The type of this parameter is determined by the kind of comparison performed by the function.
Returns
0 if the device matches the data. !0 if the device does not match. <0 if ordering is possible and the device is lower than the data. >0 if ordering is possible and the device is greater than the data.

Definition at line 206 of file rte_dev.h.

typedef void*(* rte_dev_iterate_t) (const void *start, const char *devstr, const struct rte_dev_iterator *it)

Device iteration function.

Find the next device matching properties passed in parameters. The function takes an additional start parameter, that is used as starting context when relevant.

The function returns the current element in the iteration. This return value will potentially be used as a start parameter in subsequent calls to the function.

The additional iterator parameter is only there if a specific implementation needs additional context. It must not be modified by the iteration function itself.

Parameters
startStarting iteration context.
devstrDevice description string.
itDevice iterator.
Returns
The address of the current element matching the device description string.

Function Documentation

__rte_experimental int rte_dev_is_probed ( const struct rte_device dev)
Warning
EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice

Query status of a device.

Parameters
devGeneric device pointer.
Returns
(int)true if already probed successfully, 0 otherwise.
int rte_eal_hotplug_add ( const char *  busname,
const char *  devname,
const char *  drvargs 
)

Hotplug add a given device to a specific bus.

In multi-process, it will request other processes to add the same device. A failure, in any process, will rollback the action

Parameters
busnameThe bus name the device is added to.
devnameThe device name. Based on this device name, eal will identify a driver capable of handling it and pass it to the driver probing function.
drvargsDevice arguments to be passed to the driver.
Returns
0 on success, negative on error.
Examples:
examples/multi_process/hotplug_mp/commands.c.
int rte_dev_probe ( const char *  devargs)

Add matching devices.

In multi-process, it will request other processes to add the same device. A failure, in any process, will rollback the action

Parameters
devargsDevice arguments including bus, class and driver properties.
Returns
0 on success, negative on error.
int rte_eal_hotplug_remove ( const char *  busname,
const char *  devname 
)

Hotplug remove a given device from a specific bus.

In multi-process, it will request other processes to remove the same device. A failure, in any process, will rollback the action

Parameters
busnameThe bus name the device is removed from.
devnameThe device name being removed.
Returns
0 on success, negative on error.
Examples:
examples/multi_process/hotplug_mp/commands.c.
int rte_dev_remove ( struct rte_device dev)

Remove one device.

In multi-process, it will request other processes to remove the same device. A failure, in any process, will rollback the action

Parameters
devData structure of the device to remove.
Returns
0 on success, negative on error.
__rte_experimental int rte_dev_iterator_init ( struct rte_dev_iterator it,
const char *  str 
)

Initializes a device iterator.

This iterator allows accessing a list of devices matching a criteria. The device matching is made among all buses and classes currently registered, filtered by the device description given as parameter.

This function will not allocate any memory. It is safe to stop the iteration at any moment and let the iterator go out of context.

Parameters
itDevice iterator handle.
strDevice description string.
Returns
0 on successful initialization. <0 on error.
__rte_experimental struct rte_device* rte_dev_iterator_next ( struct rte_dev_iterator it)

Iterates on a device iterator.

Generates a new rte_device handle corresponding to the next element in the list described in comprehension by the iterator.

The next object is returned, and the iterator is updated.

Parameters
itDevice iterator handle.
Returns
An rte_device handle if found. NULL if an error occurred (rte_errno is set). NULL if no device could be found (rte_errno is not set).
int __rte_experimental rte_dev_event_callback_register ( const char *  device_name,
rte_dev_event_cb_fn  cb_fn,
void *  cb_arg 
)
Warning
EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice

It registers the callback for the specific device. Multiple callbacks can be registered at the same time.

Parameters

int __rte_experimental rte_dev_event_callback_unregister ( const char *  device_name,
rte_dev_event_cb_fn  cb_fn,
void *  cb_arg 
)
Warning
EXPERIMENTAL: this API may change without prior notice

It unregisters the callback according to the specified device.

Parameters
