本文链接地址: intel万兆网卡驱动简要分析
这里分析的驱动代码是给予linux kernel 3.4.4
对应的文件在drivers/net/ethernet/intel 目录下,这个分析不涉及到很细节的地方,主要目的是理解下数据在协议栈和驱动之间是如何交互的。
首先我们知道网卡都是pci设备,因此这里每个网卡驱动其实就是一个pci驱动。并且intel这里是把好几个万兆网卡(82599/82598/x540)的驱动做在一起的。
首先我们来看对应的pci_driver的结构体,这里每个pci驱动都是一个pci_driver的结构体,而这里是多个万兆网卡共用这个结构体ixgbe_driver.

struct
pci_driver ixgbe_driver = { .name = ixgbe_driver_name, .id_table = ixgbe_pci_tbl, .probe = ixgbe_probe, . remove
= __devexit_p(ixgbe_remove), #ifdef CONFIG_PM .suspend = ixgbe_suspend, .resume = ixgbe_resume, #endif .shutdown = ixgbe_shutdown, .err_handler = &ixgbe_err_handler }; |
然后是模块初始化方法,这里其实很简单,就是调用pci的驱动注册方法,把ixgbe挂载到pci设备链中。 这里不对pci设备的初始化做太多介绍,我以前的blog有这方面的介绍,想了解的可以去看看。这里我们只需要知道最终内核会调用probe回调来初始化ixgbe。

char
ixgbe_driver_name[] = "ixgbe" ; static
const
char ixgbe_driver_string[] = "Intel(R) 10 Gigabit PCI Express Network Driver" ; static
int
__init ixgbe_init_module( void ) { int
ret; pr_info( "%s - version %s\n" , ixgbe_driver_string, ixgbe_driver_version); pr_info( "%s\n" , ixgbe_copyright); #ifdef CONFIG_IXGBE_DCA dca_register_notify(&dca_notifier); #endif ret = pci_register_driver(&ixgbe_driver); return
ret; } |
这里不去追究具体如何调用probe的细节,我们直接来看probe函数,这个函数中通过硬件的信息来确定需要初始化那个驱动(82598/82599/x540),然后核心的驱动结构就放在下面的这个数组中。

const
struct ixgbe_info *ixgbe_info_tbl[] = { [board_82598] = &ixgbe_82598_info, [board_82599] = &ixgbe_82599_info, [board_X540] = &ixgbe_X540_info, }; |
ixgbe_probe函数很长,我们这里就不详细分析了,因为这部分就是对网卡进行初始化。不过我们关注下面几个代码片段。
首先是根据硬件的参数来取得对应的驱动值:
1
|
const
struct
ixgbe_info *ii = ixgbe_info_tbl[ent->driver_data]; |
然后就是如何将不同的网卡驱动挂载到对应的回调中,这里做的很简单,就是通过对应的netdev的结构取得adapter,然后所有的核心操作都是保存在adapter中的,最后将ii的所有回调拷贝给adapter就可以了。我们来看代码:

sizeof (hw->mac.ops)); hw->mac.type = ii->mac; /* EEPROM */ memcpy (&hw->eeprom.ops, ii->eeprom_ops,
sizeof (hw->eeprom.ops)); ..................................... |
最后需要关注的就是设置网卡属性,这些属性一般来说都是通过ethtool 可以设置的属性(比如tso/checksum等),这里我们就截取一部分:

(adapter->hw.mac.type) { case
ixgbe_mac_82599EB: case
ixgbe_mac_X540: netdev->features |= NETIF_F_SCTP_CSUM; netdev->hw_features |= NETIF_F_SCTP_CSUM | NETIF_F_NTUPLE; break ; default : break ; } netdev->hw_features |= NETIF_F_RXALL; .................................................. netdev->priv_flags |= IFF_UNICAST_FLT; netdev->priv_flags |= IFF_SUPP_NOFCS; if
(adapter->flags & IXGBE_FLAG_SRIOV_ENABLED) adapter->flags &= ~(IXGBE_FLAG_RSS_ENABLED | IXGBE_FLAG_DCB_ENABLED); ................................................................... if
(pci_using_dac) { netdev->features |= NETIF_F_HIGHDMA; netdev->vlan_features |= NETIF_F_HIGHDMA; } if
(adapter->flags2 & IXGBE_FLAG2_RSC_CAPABLE) netdev->hw_features |= NETIF_F_LRO; if
(adapter->flags2 & IXGBE_FLAG2_RSC_ENABLED) netdev->features |= NETIF_F_LRO; |
然后我们来看下中断的注册,因为万兆网卡大部分都是多对列网卡(配合msix),因此对于上层软件来说,就好像有多个网卡一样,它们之间的数据是相互独立的,这里读的话主要是napi驱动的poll方法,后面我们会分析这个.
到了这里或许要问那么网卡是如何挂载回调给上层,从而上层来发送数据呢,这里是这样子的,每个网络设备都有一个回调函数表(比如ndo_start_xmit)来供上层调用,而在ixgbe中的话,就是ixgbe_netdev_ops,下面就是这个结构,不过只是截取了我们很感兴趣的几个地方.
不过这里注意,读回调并不在里面,这是因为写是软件主动的,而读则是硬件主动的。现在ixgbe是NAPI的,因此它的poll回调是ixgbe_poll,是中断注册时候通过netif_napi_add添加进去的。

struct net_device_ops ixgbe_netdev_ops = { .ndo_open = ixgbe_open, .ndo_stop = ixgbe_close, .ndo_start_xmit = ixgbe_xmit_frame, .ndo_select_queue = ixgbe_select_queue, .ndo_set_rx_mode = ixgbe_set_rx_mode, .ndo_validate_addr = eth_validate_addr, .ndo_set_mac_address = ixgbe_set_mac, .ndo_change_mtu = ixgbe_change_mtu, .ndo_tx_timeout = ixgbe_tx_timeout, ................................................. .ndo_set_features = ixgbe_set_features, .ndo_fix_features = ixgbe_fix_features, }; |
这里我们最关注的其实就是ndo_start_xmit回调,这个回调就是驱动提供给协议栈的发送回调接口。我们来看这个函数.
它的实现很简单,就是选取对应的队列,然后调用ixgbe_xmit_frame_ring来发送数据。

netdev_tx_t ixgbe_xmit_frame( struct
sk_buff *skb, struct
net_device *netdev) { struct
ixgbe_adapter *adapter = netdev_priv(netdev); struct
ixgbe_ring *tx_ring; if
(skb->len <= 0) { dev_kfree_skb_any(skb); return
NETDEV_TX_OK; } /* * The minimum packet size for olinfo paylen is 17 so pad the skb * in order to meet this minimum size requirement. */ if
(skb->len < 17) { if
(skb_padto(skb, 17)) return
NETDEV_TX_OK; skb->len = 17; } //取得对应的队列 tx_ring = adapter->tx_ring[skb->queue_mapping]; //发送数据 return
ixgbe_xmit_frame_ring(skb, adapter, tx_ring); } |
而在ixgbe_xmit_frame_ring中,我们就关注两个地方,一个是tso(什么是TSO,请自行google),一个是如何发送.

tso = ixgbe_tso(tx_ring, first, &hdr_len); if
(tso < 0) goto
out_drop; else
if
(!tso) ixgbe_tx_csum(tx_ring, first); /* add the ATR filter if ATR is on */ if
(test_bit(__IXGBE_TX_FDIR_INIT_DONE, &tx_ring->state)) ixgbe_atr(tx_ring, first); #ifdef IXGBE_FCOE xmit_fcoe: #endif /* IXGBE_FCOE */ ixgbe_tx_map(tx_ring, first, hdr_len); |
调用ixgbe_tso处理完tso之后,就会调用ixgbe_tx_map来发送数据。而ixgbe_tx_map所做的最主要是两步,第一步请求DMA,第二步写寄存器,通知网卡发送数据.

上面的操作是异步的,也就是说此时内核还不能释放SKB,而是网卡硬件发送完数据之后,会再次产生中断通知内核,然后内核才能释放内存.接下来我们来看这部分代码。
首先来看的是中断注册的代码,这里我们假设启用了MSIX,那么网卡的中断注册回调就是ixgbe_request_msix_irqs函数,这里我们可以看到调用request_irq函数来注册回调,并且每个队列都有自己的中断号。

int
ixgbe_request_msix_irqs( struct
ixgbe_adapter *adapter) { struct
net_device *netdev = adapter->netdev; int
q_vectors = adapter->num_msix_vectors - NON_Q_VECTORS; int
vector, err; int
ri = 0, ti = 0; for
(vector = 0; vector < q_vectors; vector++) { struct
ixgbe_q_vector *q_vector = adapter->q_vector[vector]; struct
msix_entry *entry = &adapter->msix_entries[vector]; ....................................................................... err = request_irq(entry->vector, &ixgbe_msix_clean_rings, 0, q_vector->name, q_vector); if
(err) { e_err(probe,
"request_irq failed for MSIX interrupt " "Error: %d\n" , err); goto
free_queue_irqs; } /* If Flow Director is enabled, set interrupt affinity */ if
(adapter->flags & IXGBE_FLAG_FDIR_HASH_CAPABLE) { /* assign the mask for this irq */ irq_set_affinity_hint(entry->vector, &q_vector->affinity_mask); } } .............................................. return
0; free_queue_irqs: ............................... return
err; } |
而对应的中断回调是ixgbe_msix_clean_rings,而这个函数呢,做的事情很简单(需要熟悉NAPI的原理,我以前的blog有介绍),就是调用napi_schedule来重新加入软中断处理.

irqreturn_t ixgbe_msix_clean_rings( int
irq, void
*data) { struct
ixgbe_q_vector *q_vector = data; /* EIAM disabled interrupts (on this vector) for us */ if
(q_vector->rx.ring || q_vector->tx.ring) napi_schedule(&q_vector->napi); return
IRQ_HANDLED; } |
而NAPI驱动我们知道,最终是会调用网卡驱动挂载的poll回调,在ixgbe中,对应的回调就是ixgbe_poll,那么也就是说这个函数要做两个工作,一个是处理读,一个是处理写完之后的清理.
