Yes. Thanks David. I will finish internal review next week and more test to bring here.
Linux vdpa interface allows vdpa device management functionality. This includes adding, removing, querying vdpa devices. vdpa interface also includes showing supported management devices which support such operations. This patchset includes kernel uapi headers and a vdpa tool. examples: $ vdpa mgmtdev show vdpasim: supported_classes net $ vdpa mgmtdev show -jp { "show": { "vdpasim": { "supported_classes": [ "net" ] } } } Create a vdpa device of type networking named as "foo2" from the management device vdpasim_net: $ vdpa dev add mgmtdev vdpasim_net name foo2 Show the newly created vdpa device by its name: $ vdpa dev show foo2 foo2: type network mgmtdev vdpasim_net vendor_id 0 max_vqs 2 max_vq_size 256 $ vdpa dev show foo2 -jp { "dev": { "foo2": { "type": "network", "mgmtdev": "vdpasim_net", "vendor_id": 0, "max_vqs": 2, "max_vq_size": 256 } } } Delete the vdpa device after its use: $ vdpa dev del foo2 An example of PCI PF, VF and SF management device: pci/0000:03.00:0 supported_classes net pci/0000:03.00:4 supported_classes net auxiliary/mlx5_core.sf.8 supported_classes net Patch summary: Patch-1 adds kernel headers for vdpa subsystem Patch-2 adds library routines for indent handling Patch-3 adds library routines for generic socket communication PAtch-4 adds library routine for number to string mapping Patch-5 adds vdpa tool Kernel headers are from the linux-next [1].
