net/mlx5: E-Switch, Avoid setup attempt if not being e-switch manager

2018-06-26T22:26:29+00:00

In smartnic env, the host (PF) driver might not be an e-switch manager, hence the FW will err on driver attempts to deal with setting/unsetting the eswitch and as a result the overall setup of sriov will fail. Fix that by avoiding the operation if e-switch management is not allowed for this driver instance. While here, move to use the correct name for the esw manager capability name.

net/mlx5: E-Switch, Add definition of IB representor

2018-02-23T20:36:38+00:00

Create a new representor type: REP_IB. which will be initialized by an IB device that is used as a logical representor of a eswitch vport (VF or uplink) just like we have a net device today in switchdev mode.

net/mlx5: E-Switch, Move representors definition to a global scope

2018-02-23T20:36:38+00:00

In preparation for IB representors, move representors structs to a global scope, also expose functions needed for registration, unregistration, eswitch mode and creating a flow rule to direct traffic from SQs to the right VF.
