• NAPI support.
• Full/Partial Checksum offload support

• Multi-queue support

Missing Features and Known Issues/Limitations in Driver

• The driver assumes that Axi Ethernet IP is connected to the DMA at the hardware level.
• The driver doesn't use dma engine framework and contains DMA programming sequence i.e doesn't use separate DMA driver. Hence compatibility string of axidma node (DTS) is set to a dummy device-tree property compatible = "xlnx,eth-dma";
• The driver doesn't support software time-stamping. It supports only hardware time-stamping.
• No support for fixed-link.
• For 1588 testing the Current driver assumes that AXI Stream FIFO is connected to the MAC TX Time stamp Stream interface at the design level.
• 10G/25G and USXGMII configurations do not support dynamic link status/change in the background as there is no external PHY using PHY framework.
• Pause frame solution is not supported and hence there could be RX overruns errors in bidirectional throughput.
• The driver supports MCDMA using kernel config i.e CONFIG_AXIENET_HAS_MCDMA option. So in multi-instance scenario driver will only support a single DMA type i.e 1G + MCDMA and 10G + MCDMA.

Kernel Configuration

The following config options should be enabled in order to build the Axi Ethernet driver
CONFIG_ETHERNET
CONFIG_NET_VENDOR_XILINX
CONFIG_XILINX_AXI_EMAC
CONFIG_AXIENET_HAS_MCDMA (Select this option In the design if Axi Ethernet is configured with Axi MCDMA)
CONFIG_XILINX_PHY (For testing SGMII/1000Base-x Configuration with PCS/PMA Core)

When Soft Ethernet MAC configured with MCDMA, The driver supports several features of the MCDMA- 

• The driver supports random Queue/Channel selection.

           Assume in vivado design MCDMA is configured for 16 channels and user don't want Linux driver to use all the 16 channels.
           Below example, pl.dtsi ( AXI ethernet node) marks channel 2, 5 and 10 to be used by Linux driver. 
         

          xlnx,num-queues = <0x3>;
          xlnx,channel-ids = "2","5","10";

          

• The driver supports channel observer feature through sysfs. This custom feature is useful in multi-core (Observer) system where MCDMA is a shared resource for all cores. MCDMA IP supports a maximum of six cores and 16 Channels can be distributed across each core as a static configuration. The Channel Observer is available for each group and provides the status about the channels in a group being serviced.
• The driver supports per channel weight configuration through sysfs. This custom feature specifies the channel weight i.e number of packets to be sent in one iteration.

• The driver supports Linux multiqueue networking. It uses the alloc_etherdev_mq() function to allocate the subqueues for the device.

  The userspace command 'tc,' part of the iproute2 package, is used to configure qdiscs. To add the MULTIQ qdisc assuming the device is called eth0, run the following command: 

  # tc qdisc add dev eth0 root handle 1: multiq

  The qdisc will allocate the number of bands to equal the number of queues that the device reports, and bring the qdisc online.

  Assuming eth0 has 4 Tx queues, the band mapping would look like:

  band 0 => queue 0
  band 1 => queue 1
  band 2 => queue 2
  band 3 => queue 3

         

         The behavior of tc filters remains the same. However, a new tc action, skbedit, has been added.
         Assuming we want to route all traffic to a specific host, for example 192.168.0.3, through a specific queue we could use this action and establish a filter such as:

         # tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1: protocol ip prio 1 u32 match ip dst 192.168.0.3 action skbedit queue_mapping 3

IEEE 1588 Support

The Existing Axi Ethernet driver in the Xilinx git hub supports 1588 for 1G MAC and legacy 10G MAC and 10G/25G MAC
It does timestamp at the MAC level. 1588 is supported in 7-series and Zynq.
The Current driver assumes that AXI Stream FIFO is connected to the MAC TX Time stamp Stream interface at the design level.

Note:
In order to test the hardware platform, a 1588 timestamp capable timer is required at the h/w level.

Prerequisite for 1588 testing:
Need to enable XILINX_AXI_EMAC_HWTSTAMP in the kernel config which does the timestamping at the MAC level (Tx/Rx)
Users should write their own timer driver for time stamping which does time adjustment/ freq adjustment.

For testing 1588 please refer to Testing tools section below.

Performance

These benchmark performance numbers were obtained by connecting Xilinx boards to Linux PCs/server machines (Ubuntu/Red Hat Enterprise). 
The tools used are netperf or iperf (Refer to tool information below).

Performance benchmark numbers mentioned in below tables are for reference and dependent on multiple factors i.e setup , vivado design configuration  etc. 

NOTE: CPU utilization reported in below performance tables is an aggregate of all CPU's. i.e on ZynqMP platform, it reports combined utilization of all four A53 cores.

Test Procedure

Diagnostic and Protocol Tests

PING
This utility used to test the reachability of a host on an Internet Protocol(IP) network and to measure the round trip time for messages sent from the originating host to a destination computer

How to Run
ping


Telnet
telnet


Pkt Generator
Please refer the below link for how to run and various options
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/networking/pktgen.txt
 

Stress Test

Iperf with option -d
Run iperf in dual testing mode. This will cause the server to connect back to the client on the port specified in the -L option (or defaults to the port the client connected to the server on). This is done immediately therefore running the tests simultaneously.

./iperf -c -d

Ping flood test
Users can send hundred or more packets per second using -f option. It prints a ‘.’ when a packet is sent, and a backspace is printed when a packet is received

ping -f localhost

Performance Test

Netperf

1588 Testing

ptp4l implements the PTP boundary clock and ordinary clock. When hardware time stamping is enabled, ptp4l synchronizes the PTP hardware clock to the master clock. With software time stamping, it synchronizes the system clock to the master clock. phc2sys is needed only with hardware time stamping to synchronize the system clock to the PTP hardware clock on the network interface card (NIC).

Build Instructions for ptp4l application

• Get the source 

     git clone http://git.code.sf.net/p/linuxptp/code linuxptp

• Set the CROSS_COMPILE environment variable arm toolchain
• Install the kernel headers

          https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/kbuild/headers_install.txt

• Include the headers path in makefile

          INC = -I/proj/epdsw/punnaiah/git/test/ethernet/1588/header/include
          CFLAGS = -Wall $(VER) $(incdefs) $(DEBUG) $(INC) $(EXTRA_CFLAGS)

• run make

Execution steps

In order to perform master-slave sync, run the following:

Master (linux server) : ptp4l -i < interface name> -m
Slave (xilinx board) :   ptp4l -i -m -s

NOTE: If intended before synchronization phc2sys -s -w & can be run to synchronize the system clock to a PTP hardware clock.

Synchronization is stabilized in a few secs.
