Hi all, Anybody got a chance to look into ? BTW, am using below two patches for VF reset on DPDK 16.11 http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2016-June/040287.html ::lib/librte_ether: support device reset http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2016-June/040290.html <http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2016-June/040289.html> ::ixgbe: implement device reset on VF Having few queries based above patches. 1) Are above patches are sufficient to reset VF ? Along with 2 patches, do we need to have more fix ? 2) May know, Why above patches are not submitted, Were there any side effect of both patches ? 3) Is the patch applicable to DPDK 2.1 also along with mailbox process patch ? 4) Is there any plan to submit above fixes in latest dpdk code ? Awaiting for the reply .. Thanks in advance. On Fri, May 26, 2017 at 6:41 PM, Shashikant Poonia < shashikantpoonia89@gmail.com> wrote:
Hi All, I am running Link Status Interrupt(LSI) DPDK sample application to test link status by making PF up/down using 'ip link set dev <intface> up/down'. I would think, it should trigger 'ixgbe_dev_interrupt_handler()' when we do interface up/down. But looks like it is not triggered 'ixgbe_dev_interrupt_handler()' to update link status. setup details: DPDK 16.11.1 LSI sample application Host: rhel 7.2 having Intel X540 10G card Guest: KVM hypervisor attached VFs Execute LSI binary on Guest using ./link_status_interrupt -c 2 -n 4 -- -q 2 -p 0x3 My main goal to check the link status of VF's on Guest machine, but looks like its not updated on PF itself. So once this works then i hope it works for VF as well Please do let me know, whether i am missing any configuraion/patch ? Any help would be appreciated -- Regards, Shashikant Poonia
