Subject: [PATCH v3 net-next 00/14] pds_core driver
Summary:
--------
This patchset implements new driver for use with the AMD/Pensando
Distributed Services Card (DSC), intended to provide core configuration
services through the auxiliary_bus for VFio and vDPA feature specific
drivers.
To keep this patchset to a manageable size, the pds_vdpa and pds_vfio
drivers have been split out into their own patchsets to be reviewed
separately.
Detail:
-------
AMD/Pensando is making available a new set of devices for supporting vDPA,
VFio, and potentially other features in the Distributed Services Card
(DSC). These features are implemented through a PF that serves as a Core
device for controlling and configuring its VF devices. These VF devices
have separate drivers that use the auxiliary_bus to work through the Core
device as the control path.
Currently, the DSC supports standard ethernet operations using the
ionic driver. This is not replaced by the Core-based devices - these
new devices are in addition to the existing Ethernet device. Typical DSC
configurations will include both PDS devices and Ionic Eth devices.
The Core device is a new PCI PF device managed by a new driver 'pds_core'.
It sets up auxiliary_bus devices for each VF for communicating with the
drivers for the VF devices. The VFs may be for VFio or vDPA, and other
services in the future; these VF types are selected as part of the DSC
internal FW configurations, which is out of the scope of this patchset.
The Core device sets up devlink parameters for enabling available
feature sets.
Once a feature set is enabled in the core device, auxiliary_bus devices
are created for each VF that supports the feature. These auxiliary_bus
devices are named by their feature plus VF PCI bdf so that the auxiliary
device driver can find its related VF PCI driver instance. The VF's
driver then connects to and uses this auxiliary_device to do control path
configuration of the feature through the PF device.
A cheap ASCII diagram of a vDPA instance looks something like this and can
then be used with the vdpa kernel module to provide devices for virtio_vdpa
kernel module for host interfaces, or vhost_vdpa kernel module for interfaces
exported into your favorite VM.

-------------------------------------------------
Changes:
v3:
- changed names from "pensando" to "amd" and updated copyright strings
- dropped the DEVLINK_PARAM_GENERIC_ID_FW_BANK for future development
- changed the auxiliary device creation to be triggered by the
PCI bus event BOUND_DRIVER, and torn down at UNBIND_DRIVER in order
to properly handle users using the sysfs bind/unbind functions
- dropped some noisy log messages
- rebased to current net-next
RFC to v2:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20221207004443.33779-1-shannon.nelson@amd.com/
- added separate devlink param patches for DEVLINK_PARAM_GENERIC_ID_ENABLE_MIGRATION
and DEVLINK_PARAM_GENERIC_ID_FW_BANK, and dropped the driver specific implementations
- updated descriptions for the new devlink parameters
- dropped netdev support
- dropped vDPA patches, will followup later
- separated fw update and fw bank select into their own patches
