RTE Event Device API
In a polling model, lcores poll ethdev ports and associated rx queues directly to look for packet. In an event driven model, by contrast, lcores call the scheduler that selects packets for them based on programmer specified criteria. Eventdev library adds support for event driven programming model, which offer applications automatic multicore scaling, dynamic load balancing, pipelining, packet ingress order maintenance and synchronization services to simplify application packet processing.
The Event Device API is composed of two parts:
Event device components:
+-----------------+ | +-------------+ | +-------+ | | flow 0 | | |Packet | | +-------------+ | |event | | +-------------+ | | | | | flow 1 | |port_link(port0, queue0) +-------+ | +-------------+ | | +--------+ +-------+ | +-------------+ o-----v-----o |dequeue +------+ |Crypto | | | flow n | | | event +------->|Core 0| |work | | +-------------+ o----+ | port 0 | | | |done ev| | event queue 0 | | +--------+ +------+ +-------+ +-----------------+ | +-------+ | |Timer | +-----------------+ | +--------+ |expiry | | +-------------+ | +------o |dequeue +------+ |event | | | flow 0 | o-----------o event +------->|Core 1| +-------+ | +-------------+ | +----o port 1 | | | Event enqueue | +-------------+ | | +--------+ +------+ o-------------> | | flow 1 | | | enqueue( | +-------------+ | | queue_id, | | | +--------+ +------+ flow_id, | +-------------+ | | | |dequeue |Core 2| sched_type, | | flow n | o-----------o event +------->| | event_type, | +-------------+ | | | port 2 | +------+ subev_type, | event queue 1 | | +--------+ event) +-----------------+ | +--------+ | | |dequeue +------+ +-------+ +-----------------+ | | event +------->|Core n| |Core | | +-------------+ o-----------o port n | | | |(SW) | | | flow 0 | | | +--------+ +--+---+ |event | | +-------------+ | | | +-------+ | +-------------+ | | | ^ | | flow 1 | | | | | | +-------------+ o------+ | | | +-------------+ | | | | | flow n | | | | | +-------------+ | | | | event queue n | | | +-----------------+ | | | +-----------------------------------------------------------+
Event device: A hardware or software-based event scheduler.
Event: A unit of scheduling that encapsulates a packet or other datatype like SW generated event from the CPU, Crypto work completion notification, Timer expiry event notification etc as well as metadata. The metadata includes flow ID, scheduling type, event priority, event_type, sub_event_type etc.
Event queue: A queue containing events that are scheduled by the event dev. An event queue contains events of different flows associated with scheduling types, such as atomic, ordered, or parallel.
Event port: An application's interface into the event dev for enqueue and dequeue operations. Each event port can be linked with one or more event queues for dequeue operations.
By default, all the functions of the Event Device API exported by a PMD are lock-free functions which assume to not be invoked in parallel on different logical cores to work on the same target object. For instance, the dequeue function of a PMD cannot be invoked in parallel on two logical cores to operates on same event port. Of course, this function can be invoked in parallel by different logical cores on different ports. It is the responsibility of the upper level application to enforce this rule.
In all functions of the Event API, the Event device is designated by an integer >= 0 named the device identifier dev_id
At the Event driver level, Event devices are represented by a generic data structure of type rte_event_dev.
Event devices are dynamically registered during the PCI/SoC device probing phase performed at EAL initialization time. When an Event device is being probed, a rte_event_dev structure and a new device identifier are allocated for that device. Then, the event_dev_init() function supplied by the Event driver matching the probed device is invoked to properly initialize the device.
The role of the device init function consists of resetting the hardware or software event driver implementations.
If the device init operation is successful, the correspondence between the device identifier assigned to the new device and its associated rte_event_dev structure is effectively registered. Otherwise, both the rte_event_dev structure and the device identifier are freed.
The functions exported by the application Event API to setup a device designated by its device identifier must be invoked in the following order:
Then, the application can invoke, in any order, the functions exported by the Event API to schedule events, dequeue events, enqueue events, change event queue(s) to event port [un]link establishment and so on.
Application may use rte_event_[queue/port]_default_conf_get() to get the default configuration to set up an event queue or event port by overriding few default values.
If the application wants to change the configuration (i.e. call rte_event_dev_configure(), rte_event_queue_setup(), or rte_event_port_setup()), it must call rte_event_dev_stop() first to stop the device and then do the reconfiguration before calling rte_event_dev_start() again. The schedule, enqueue and dequeue functions should not be invoked when the device is stopped.
Finally, an application can close an Event device by invoking the rte_event_dev_close() function.
Each function of the application Event API invokes a specific function of the PMD that controls the target device designated by its device identifier.
For this purpose, all device-specific functions of an Event driver are supplied through a set of pointers contained in a generic structure of type event_dev_ops. The address of the event_dev_ops structure is stored in the rte_event_dev structure by the device init function of the Event driver, which is invoked during the PCI/SoC device probing phase, as explained earlier.
In other words, each function of the Event API simply retrieves the rte_event_dev structure associated with the device identifier and performs an indirect invocation of the corresponding driver function supplied in the event_dev_ops structure of the rte_event_dev structure.
For performance reasons, the address of the fast-path functions of the Event driver is not contained in the event_dev_ops structure. Instead, they are directly stored at the beginning of the rte_event_dev structure to avoid an extra indirect memory access during their invocation.
RTE event device drivers do not use interrupts for enqueue or dequeue operation. Instead, Event drivers export Poll-Mode enqueue and dequeue functions to applications.
The events are injected to event device through enqueue operation by event producers in the system. The typical event producers are ethdev subsystem for generating packet events, CPU(SW) for generating events based on different stages of application processing, cryptodev for generating crypto work completion notification etc
The dequeue operation gets one or more events from the event ports. The application process the events and send to downstream event queue through rte_event_enqueue_burst() if it is an intermediate stage of event processing, on the final stage, the application may use Tx adapter API for maintaining the ingress order and then send the packet/event on the wire.
The point at which events are scheduled to ports depends on the device. For hardware devices, scheduling occurs asynchronously without any software intervention. Software schedulers can either be distributed (each worker thread schedules events to its own port) or centralized (a dedicated thread schedules to all ports). Distributed software schedulers perform the scheduling in rte_event_dequeue_burst(), whereas centralized scheduler logic need a dedicated service core for scheduling. The RTE_EVENT_DEV_CAP_DISTRIBUTED_SCHED capability flag is not set indicates the device is centralized and thus needs a dedicated scheduling thread that repeatedly calls software specific scheduling function.
An event driven worker thread has following typical workflow on fastpath:

Event scheduling prioritization is based on the priority associated with each event queue.
Definition at line 231 of file rte_eventdev.h.
#define RTE_EVENT_DEV_CAP_EVENT_QOS (1ULL << 1) |
Event scheduling prioritization is based on the priority associated with each event. Priority of each event is supplied in rte_event structure on each enqueue operation.
Definition at line 238 of file rte_eventdev.h.
#define RTE_EVENT_DEV_CAP_DISTRIBUTED_SCHED (1ULL << 2) |
Event device operates in distributed scheduling mode. In distributed scheduling mode, event scheduling happens in HW or rte_event_dequeue_burst() or the combination of these two. If the flag is not set then eventdev is centralized and thus needs a dedicated service core that acts as a scheduling thread .
Definition at line 247 of file rte_eventdev.h.
#define RTE_EVENT_DEV_CAP_QUEUE_ALL_TYPES (1ULL << 3) |
Event device is capable of enqueuing events of any type to any queue. If this capability is not set, the queue only supports events of the RTE_SCHED_TYPE_ type that it was created with.
Definition at line 254 of file rte_eventdev.h.
#define RTE_EVENT_DEV_CAP_BURST_MODE (1ULL << 4) |
Event device is capable of operating in burst mode for enqueue(forward, release) and dequeue operation. If this capability is not set, application still uses the rte_event_dequeue_burst() and rte_event_enqueue_burst() but PMD accepts only one event at a time.
Definition at line 262 of file rte_eventdev.h.
#define RTE_EVENT_DEV_CAP_IMPLICIT_RELEASE_DISABLE (1ULL << 5) |
Event device ports support disabling the implicit release feature, in which the port will release all unreleased events in its dequeue operation. If this capability is set and the port is configured with implicit release disabled, the application is responsible for explicitly releasing events using either the RTE_EVENT_OP_FORWARD or the RTE_EVENT_OP_RELEASE event enqueue operations.
Definition at line 272 of file rte_eventdev.h.
#define RTE_EVENT_DEV_CAP_NONSEQ_MODE (1ULL << 6) |
Event device is capable of operating in none sequential mode. The path of the event is not necessary to be sequential. Application can change the path of event at runtime. If the flag is not set, then event each event will follow a path from queue 0 to queue 1 to queue 2 etc. If the flag is set, events may be sent to queues in any order. If the flag is not set, the eventdev will return an error when the application enqueues an event for a qid which is not the next in the sequence.
Definition at line 282 of file rte_eventdev.h.
#define RTE_EVENT_DEV_CAP_RUNTIME_PORT_LINK (1ULL << 7) |
Event device is capable of configuring the queue/port link at runtime. If the flag is not set, the eventdev queue/port link is only can be configured during initialization.
Definition at line 288 of file rte_eventdev.h.
#define RTE_EVENT_DEV_CAP_MULTIPLE_QUEUE_PORT (1ULL << 8) |
Event device is capable of setting up the link between multiple queue with single port. If the flag is not set, the eventdev can only map a single queue to each port or map a single queue to many port.
Definition at line 294 of file rte_eventdev.h.
#define RTE_EVENT_DEV_CAP_CARRY_FLOW_ID (1ULL << 9) |
Event device preserves the flow ID from the enqueued event to the dequeued event if the flag is set. Otherwise, the content of this field is implementation dependent.
Definition at line 300 of file rte_eventdev.h.
#define RTE_EVENT_DEV_CAP_MAINTENANCE_FREE (1ULL << 10) |
Event device does not require calls to rte_event_maintain(). An event device that does not set this flag requires calls to rte_event_maintain() during periods when neither rte_event_dequeue_burst() nor rte_event_enqueue_burst() are called on a port. This will allow the event device to perform internal processing, such as flushing buffered events, return credits to a global pool, or process signaling related to load balancing.

Ordered scheduling
Events from an ordered flow of an event queue can be scheduled to multiple ports for concurrent processing while maintaining the original event order. This scheme enables the user to achieve high single flow throughput by avoiding SW synchronization for ordering between ports which bound to cores.
The source flow ordering from an event queue is maintained when events are enqueued to their destination queue within the same ordered flow context. An event port holds the context until application call rte_event_dequeue_burst() from the same port, which implicitly releases the context. User may allow the scheduler to release the context earlier than that by invoking rte_event_enqueue_burst() with RTE_EVENT_OP_RELEASE operation.
Events from the source queue appear in their original order when dequeued from a destination queue. Event ordering is based on the received event(s), but also other (newly allocated or stored) events are ordered when enqueued within the same ordered context. Events not enqueued (e.g. released or stored) within the context are considered missing from reordering and are skipped at this time (but can be ordered again within another context).
Definition at line 1056 of file rte_eventdev.h.
#define RTE_SCHED_TYPE_ATOMIC 1 |
Atomic scheduling
Events from an atomic flow of an event queue can be scheduled only to a single port at a time. The port is guaranteed to have exclusive (atomic) access to the associated flow context, which enables the user to avoid SW synchronization. Atomic flows also help to maintain event ordering since only one port at a time can process events from a flow of an event queue.
The atomic queue synchronization context is dedicated to the port until application call rte_event_dequeue_burst() from the same port, which implicitly releases the context. User may allow the scheduler to release the context earlier than that by invoking rte_event_enqueue_burst() with RTE_EVENT_OP_RELEASE operation.
Definition at line 1075 of file rte_eventdev.h.
#define RTE_SCHED_TYPE_PARALLEL 2 |
Parallel scheduling
The scheduler performs priority scheduling, load balancing, etc. functions but does not provide additional event synchronization or ordering. It is free to schedule events from a single parallel flow of an event queue to multiple events ports for concurrent processing. The application is responsible for flow context synchronization and event ordering (SW synchronization).

Definition at line 1139 of file rte_eventdev.h.
#define RTE_EVENT_OP_RELEASE 2 |
Release the flow context associated with the schedule type.
If current flow's scheduler type method is RTE_SCHED_TYPE_ATOMIC then this function hints the scheduler that the user has completed critical section processing in the current atomic context. The scheduler is now allowed to schedule events from the same flow from an event queue to another port. However, the context may be still held until the next rte_event_dequeue_burst() call, this call allows but does not force the scheduler to release the context early.
Early atomic context release may increase parallelism and thus system performance, but the user needs to design carefully the split into critical vs non-critical sections.
If current flow's scheduler type method is RTE_SCHED_TYPE_ORDERED then this function hints the scheduler that the user has done all that need to maintain event order in the current ordered context. The scheduler is allowed to release the ordered context of this port and avoid reordering any following enqueues.
Early ordered context release may increase parallelism and thus system performance.
If current flow's scheduler type method is RTE_SCHED_TYPE_PARALLEL or no scheduling context is held then this function may be an NOOP, depending on the implementation.
This operation must only be enqueued to the same port that the event to be released was dequeued from.

Dequeue a burst of events objects or an event object from the event port designated by its event_port_id, on an event device designated by its dev_id.
rte_event_dequeue_burst() does not dictate the specifics of scheduling algorithm as each eventdev driver may have different criteria to schedule an event. However, in general, from an application perspective scheduler may use the following scheme to dispatch an event to the port.
1) Selection of event queue based on a) The list of event queues are linked to the event port. b) If the device has RTE_EVENT_DEV_CAP_QUEUE_QOS capability then event queue selection from list is based on event queue priority relative to other event queue supplied as priority in rte_event_queue_setup() c) If the device has RTE_EVENT_DEV_CAP_EVENT_QOS capability then event queue selection from the list is based on event priority supplied as priority in rte_event_enqueue_burst() 2) Selection of event a) The number of flows available in selected event queue. b) Schedule type method associated with the event
The nb_events parameter is the maximum number of event objects to dequeue which are returned in the ev array of rte_event structure.
The rte_event_dequeue_burst() function returns the number of events objects it actually dequeued. A return value equal to nb_events means that all event objects have been dequeued.
The number of events dequeued is the number of scheduler contexts held by this port. These contexts are automatically released in the next rte_event_dequeue_burst() invocation if the port supports implicit releases, or invoking rte_event_enqueue_burst() with RTE_EVENT_OP_RELEASE operation can be used to release the contexts early.
Event operations RTE_EVENT_OP_FORWARD and RTE_EVENT_OP_RELEASE must only be enqueued to the same port that their associated events were dequeued from.

Maintain an event device.
This function is only relevant for event devices which do not have the RTE_EVENT_DEV_CAP_MAINTENANCE_FREE flag set. Such devices require an application thread using a particular port to periodically call rte_event_maintain() on that port during periods which it is neither attempting to enqueue events to nor dequeue events from the port. rte_event_maintain() is a low-overhead function and should be called at a high rate (e.g., in the application's poll loop).
No port may be left unmaintained.
At the application thread's convenience, rte_event_maintain() may (but is not required to) be called even during periods when enqueue or dequeue functions are being called, at the cost of a slight increase in overhead.
rte_event_maintain() may be called on event devices which have set RTE_EVENT_DEV_CAP_MAINTENANCE_FREE, in which case it is a no-operation.
dev_id | The identifier of the device. |
port_id | The identifier of the event port. |
