/*
 *
 * The TILE-Gx mPIPE&tm; shim provides Ethernet connectivity, packet
 * classification, and packet load balancing services.  The
 * gxio_mpipe_ API, declared in <gxio/mpipe.h>, allows applications to
 * allocate mPIPE IO channels, configure packet distribution
 * parameters, and send and receive Ethernet packets.  The API is
 * designed to be a minimal wrapper around the mPIPE hardware, making
 * system calls only where necessary to preserve inter-process
 * protection guarantees.
 *
 * The APIs described below allow the programmer to allocate and
 * configure mPIPE resources.  As described below, the mPIPE is a
 * single shared hardware device that provides partitionable resources
 * that are shared between all applications in the system.  The
 * gxio_mpipe_ API allows userspace code to make resource request
 * calls to the hypervisor, which in turns keeps track of the
 * resources in use by all applications, maintains protection
 * guarantees, and resets resources upon application shutdown.
 *
 * We strongly recommend reading the mPIPE section of the IO Device
 * Guide (UG404) before working with this API.  Most functions in the
 * gxio_mpipe_ API are directly analogous to hardware interfaces and
 * the documentation assumes that the reader understands those
 * hardware interfaces.
 *
 * @section mpipe__ingress mPIPE Ingress Hardware Resources
 *
 * The mPIPE ingress hardware provides extensive hardware offload for
 * tasks like packet header parsing, load balancing, and memory
 * management.  This section provides a brief introduction to the
 * hardware components and the gxio_mpipe_ calls used to manage them;
 * see the IO Device Guide for a much more detailed description of the
 * mPIPE's capabilities.
 *
 * When a packet arrives at one of the mPIPE's Ethernet MACs, it is
 * assigned a channel number indicating which MAC received it.  It
 * then proceeds through the following hardware pipeline:
 *
 * @subsection mpipe__classification Classification
 *
 * A set of classification processors run header parsing code on each
 * incoming packet, extracting information including the destination
 * MAC address, VLAN, Ethernet type, and five-tuple hash.  Some of
 * this information is then used to choose which buffer stack will be
 * used to hold the packet, and which bucket will be used by the load
 * balancer to determine which application will receive the packet.
 *
 * The rules by which the buffer stack and bucket are chosen can be
 * configured via the @ref gxio_mpipe_classifier API.  A given app can
 * specify multiple rules, each one specifying a bucket range, and a
 * set of buffer stacks, to be used for packets matching the rule.
 * Each rule can optionally specify a restricted set of channels,
 * VLANs, and/or dMACs, in which it is interested.  By default, a
 * given rule starts out matching all channels associated with the
 * mPIPE context's set of open links; all VLANs; and all dMACs.
 * Subsequent restrictions can then be added.
 *
 * @subsection mpipe__load_balancing Load Balancing
 *
 * The mPIPE load balancer is responsible for choosing the NotifRing
 * to which the packet will be delivered.  This decision is based on
 * the bucket number indicated by the classification program.  In
 * general, the bucket number is based on some number of low bits of
 * the packet's flow hash (applications that aren't interested in flow
 * hashing use a single bucket).  Each load balancer bucket keeps a
 * record of the NotifRing to which packets directed to that bucket
 * are currently being delivered.  Based on the bucket's load
 * balancing mode (@ref gxio_mpipe_bucket_mode_t), the load balancer
 * either forwards the packet to the previously assigned NotifRing or
 * decides to choose a new NotifRing.  If a new NotifRing is required,
 * the load balancer chooses the least loaded ring in the NotifGroup
 * associated with the bucket.
 *
 * The load balancer is a shared resource.  Each application needs to
 * explicitly allocate NotifRings, NotifGroups, and buckets, using
 * gxio_mpipe_alloc_notif_rings(), gxio_mpipe_alloc_notif_groups(),
 * and gxio_mpipe_alloc_buckets().  Then the application needs to
 * configure them using gxio_mpipe_init_notif_ring() and
 * gxio_mpipe_init_notif_group_and_buckets().
 *
 * @subsection mpipe__buffers Buffer Selection and Packet Delivery
 *
 * Once the load balancer has chosen the destination NotifRing, the
 * mPIPE DMA engine pops at least one buffer off of the 'buffer stack'
 * chosen by the classification program and DMAs the packet data into
 * that buffer.  Each buffer stack provides a hardware-accelerated
 * stack of data buffers with the same size.  If the packet data is
 * larger than the buffers provided by the chosen buffer stack, the
 * mPIPE hardware pops off multiple buffers and chains the packet data
 * through a multi-buffer linked list.  Once the packet data is
 * delivered to the buffer(s), the mPIPE hardware writes the
 * ::gxio_mpipe_idesc_t metadata object (calculated by the classifier)
 * into the NotifRing and increments the number of packets delivered
 * to that ring.
 *
 * Applications can push buffers onto a buffer stack by calling
 * gxio_mpipe_push_buffer() or by egressing a packet with the
 * ::gxio_mpipe_edesc_t::hwb bit set, indicating that the egressed
 * buffers should be returned to the stack.
 *
 * Applications can allocate and initialize buffer stacks with the
 * gxio_mpipe_alloc_buffer_stacks() and gxio_mpipe_init_buffer_stack()
 * APIs.
 *
 * The application must also register the memory pages that will hold
 * packets.  This requires calling gxio_mpipe_register_page() for each
 * memory page that will hold packets allocated by the application for
 * a given buffer stack.  Since each buffer stack is limited to 16
 * registered pages, it may be necessary to use huge pages, or even
 * extremely huge pages, to hold all the buffers.
 *
 * @subsection mpipe__iqueue NotifRings
 *
 * Each NotifRing is a region of shared memory, allocated by the
 * application, to which the mPIPE delivers packet descriptors
 * (::gxio_mpipe_idesc_t).  The application can allocate them via
 * gxio_mpipe_alloc_notif_rings().  The application can then either
 * explicitly initialize them with gxio_mpipe_init_notif_ring() and
 * then read from them manually, or can make use of the convenience
 * wrappers provided by @ref gxio_mpipe_wrappers.
 *
 * @section mpipe__egress mPIPE Egress Hardware
 *
 * Applications use eDMA rings to queue packets for egress.  The
 * application can allocate them via gxio_mpipe_alloc_edma_rings().
 * The application can then either explicitly initialize them with
 * gxio_mpipe_init_edma_ring() and then write to them manually, or
 * can make use of the convenience wrappers provided by
 * @ref gxio_mpipe_wrappers.
 *
 * @section gxio__shortcomings Plans for Future API Revisions
 *
 * The API defined here is only an initial version of the mPIPE API.
 * Future plans include:
 *
 * - Higher level wrapper functions to provide common initialization
 * patterns.  This should help users start writing mPIPE programs
 * without having to learn the details of the hardware.
 *
 * - Support for reset and deallocation of resources, including
 * cleanup upon application shutdown.
 *
 * - Support for calling these APIs in the BME.
 *
 * - Support for IO interrupts.
 *
 * - Clearer definitions of thread safety guarantees.
 *
 * @section gxio__mpipe_examples Examples
 *
 * See the following mPIPE example programs for more information about
 * allocating mPIPE resources and using them in real applications:
 *
 * - @ref mpipe/ingress/app.c : Receiving packets.
 *
 * - @ref mpipe/forward/app.c : Forwarding packets.
 *
 * Note that there are several more examples.

 * Functions for loading or configuring the mPIPE classifier program.

 * The mPIPE classification processors all run a special "classifier"
 * program which, for each incoming packet, parses the packet headers,
 * encodes some packet metadata in the "idesc", and either drops the
 * packet, or picks a notif ring to handle the packet, and a buffer
 * stack to contain the packet, usually based on the channel, VLAN,
 * dMAC, flow hash, and packet size, under the guidance of the "rules"
 * API described below.
 *
 * @section gxio_mpipe_classifier_default Default Classifier
 *
 * The MDE provides a simple "default" classifier program.  It is
 * shipped as source in "$TILERA_ROOT/src/sys/mpipe/classifier.c",
 * which serves as its official documentation.  It is shipped as a
 * binary program in "$TILERA_ROOT/tile/boot/classifier", which is
 * automatically included in bootroms created by "tile-monitor", and
 * is automatically loaded by the hypervisor at boot time.
 *
 * The L2 analysis handles LLC packets, SNAP packets, and "VLAN
 * wrappers" (keeping the outer VLAN).
 *
 * The L3 analysis handles IPv4 and IPv6, dropping packets with bad
 * IPv4 header checksums, requesting computation of a TCP/UDP checksum
 * if appropriate, and hashing the dest and src IP addresses, plus the
 * ports for TCP/UDP packets, into the flow hash.  No special analysis
 * is done for "fragmented" packets or "tunneling" protocols.  Thus,
 * the first fragment of a fragmented TCP/UDP packet is hashed using
 * src/dest IP address and ports and all subsequent fragments are only
 * hashed according to src/dest IP address.
 *
 * The L3 analysis handles other packets too, hashing the dMAC
 * smac into a flow hash.
 *
 * The channel, VLAN, and dMAC used to pick a "rule" (see the
 * "rules" APIs below), which in turn is used to pick a buffer stack
 * (based on the packet size) and a bucket (based on the flow hash).
 *
 * To receive traffic matching a particular (channel/VLAN/dMAC
 * pattern, an application should allocate its own buffer stacks and
 * load balancer buckets, and map traffic to those stacks and buckets,
 * as decribed by the "rules" API below.
 *
 * Various packet metadata is encoded in the idesc.  The flow hash is
 * four bytes at 0x0C.  The VLAN is two bytes at 0x10.  The ethtype is
 * two bytes at 0x12.  The l3 start is one byte at 0x14.  The l4 start
 * is one byte at 0x15 for IPv4 and IPv6 packets, and otherwise zero.
 * The protocol is one byte at 0x16 for IPv4 and IPv6 packets, and
 * otherwise zero.
 *
 * @section gxio_mpipe_classifier_custom Custom Classifiers.
 *
 * A custom classifier may be created using "tile-mpipe-cc" with a
 * customized version of the default classifier sources.

 * using gxio_mpipe_classifier_load_from_file().

 *                     Ingress Queue Wrapper                      *
 ******************************************************************/

/*
 *
 * Convenience functions for receiving packets from a NotifRing and
 * sending packets via an eDMA ring.
 *
 * The mpipe ingress and egress hardware uses shared memory packet
 * descriptors to describe packets that have arrived on ingress or
 * are destined for egress.  These descriptors are stored in shared
 * memory ring buffers and written or read by hardware as necessary.
 * The gxio library provides wrapper functions that manage the head and
 * tail pointers for these rings, allowing the user to easily read or
 * write packet descriptors.
 *
 * The initialization interface for ingress and egress rings is quite
 * similar.  For example, to create an ingress queue, the user passes
 * a ::gxio_mpipe_iqueue_t state object, a ring number from
 * gxio_mpipe_alloc_notif_rings(), and the address of memory to hold a
 * ring buffer to the gxio_mpipe_iqueue_init() function.  The function
 * returns success when the state object has been initialized and the
 * hardware configured to deliver packets to the specified ring
 * buffer.  Similarly, gxio_mpipe_equeue_init() takes a
 * ::gxio_mpipe_equeue_t state object, a ring number from
 * gxio_mpipe_alloc_edma_rings(), and a shared memory buffer.
 *
 * @section gxio_mpipe_iqueue Working with Ingress Queues
 *
 * Once initialized, the gxio_mpipe_iqueue_t API provides two flows
 * for getting the ::gxio_mpipe_idesc_t packet descriptor associated
 * with incoming packets.  The simplest is to call
 * gxio_mpipe_iqueue_get() or gxio_mpipe_iqueue_try_get().  These
 * functions copy the oldest packet descriptor out of the NotifRing and
 * into a descriptor provided by the caller.  They also immediately
 * inform the hardware that a descriptor has been processed.
 *
 * For applications with stringent performance requirements, higher
 * efficiency can be achieved by avoiding the packet descriptor copy
 * and processing multiple descriptors at once.  The
 * gxio_mpipe_iqueue_peek() and gxio_mpipe_iqueue_try_peek() functions
 * allow such optimizations.  These functions provide a pointer to the
 * next valid ingress descriptor in the NotifRing's shared memory ring
 * buffer, and a count of how many contiguous descriptors are ready to
 * be processed.  The application can then process any number of those
 * descriptors in place, calling gxio_mpipe_iqueue_consume() to inform
 * the hardware after each one has been processed.
 *
 * @section gxio_mpipe_equeue Working with Egress Queues
 *
 * Similarly, the egress queue API provides a high-performance
 * interface plus a simple wrapper for use in posting
 * ::gxio_mpipe_edesc_t egress packet descriptors.  The simple
 * version, gxio_mpipe_equeue_put(), allows the programmer to wait for
 * an eDMA ring slot to become available and write a single descriptor
 * into the ring.
 *
 * Alternatively, you can reserve slots in the eDMA ring using
 * gxio_mpipe_equeue_reserve() or gxio_mpipe_equeue_try_reserve(), and
 * then fill in each slot using gxio_mpipe_equeue_put_at().  This
 * capability can be used to amortize the cost of reserving slots
 * across several packets.  It also allows gather operations to be
 * performed on a shared equeue, by ensuring that the edescs for all
 * the fragments are all contiguous in the eDMA ring.
 *
 * The gxio_mpipe_equeue_reserve() and gxio_mpipe_equeue_try_reserve()
 * functions return a 63-bit "completion slot", which is actually a
 * sequence number, the low bits of which indicate the ring buffer
 * index and the high bits the number of times the application has
 * gone around the egress ring buffer.  The extra bits allow an
 * application to check for egress completion by calling
 * gxio_mpipe_equeue_is_complete() to see whether a particular 'slot'
 * number has finished.  Given the maximum packet rates of the Gx
 * processor, the 63-bit slot number will never wrap.
 *
 * In practice, most applications use the ::gxio_mpipe_edesc_t::hwb
 * bit to indicate that the buffers containing egress packet data
 * should be pushed onto a buffer stack when egress is complete.  Such
 * applications generally do not need to know when an egress operation
 * completes (since there is no need to free a buffer post-egress),
 * and thus can use the optimized gxio_mpipe_equeue_reserve_fast() or
 * gxio_mpipe_equeue_try_reserve_fast() functions, which return a 24
 * bit "slot", instead of a 63-bit "completion slot".
 *
 * Once a slot has been "reserved", it MUST be filled.  If the
 * application reserves a slot and then decides that it does not
 * actually need it, it can set the ::gxio_mpipe_edesc_t::ns (no send)
 * bit on the descriptor passed to gxio_mpipe_equeue_put_at() to
 * indicate that no data should be sent.  This technique can also be
 * used to drop an incoming packet, instead of forwarding it, since
 * any buffer will still be pushed onto the buffer stack when the
 * egress descriptor is processed.

/*
 *
 * Functions for manipulating and sensing the state and configuration
 * of physical network links.
 *
 * @section gxio_mpipe_link_perm Link Permissions
 *
 * Opening a link (with gxio_mpipe_link_open()) requests a set of link
 * permissions, which control what may be done with the link, and potentially
 * what permissions may be granted to other processes.
 *
 * Data permission allows the process to receive packets from the link by
 * specifying the link's channel number in mPIPE packet distribution rules,
 * and to send packets to the link by using the link's channel number as
 * the target for an eDMA ring.
 *
 * Stats permission allows the process to retrieve link attributes (such as
 * the speeds it is capable of running at, or whether it is currently up), and
 * to read and write certain statistics-related registers in the link's MAC.
 *
 * Control permission allows the process to retrieve and modify link attributes
 * (so that it may, for example, bring the link up and take it down), and
 * read and write many registers in the link's MAC and PHY.
 *
 * Any permission may be requested as shared, which allows other processes
 * to also request shared permission, or exclusive, which prevents other
 * processes from requesting it.  In keeping with GXIO's typical usage in
 * an embedded environment, the defaults for all permissions are shared.
 *
 * Permissions are granted on a first-come, first-served basis, so if two
 * applications request an exclusive permission on the same link, the one
 * to run first will win.  Note, however, that some system components, like
 * the kernel Ethernet driver, may get an opportunity to open links before
 * any applications run.
 *
 * @section gxio_mpipe_link_names Link Names
 *
 * Link names are of the form gbe<em>number</em> (for Gigabit Ethernet),
 * xgbe<em>number</em> (for 10 Gigabit Ethernet), loop<em>number</em> (for
 * internal mPIPE loopback), or ilk<em>number</em>/<em>channel</em>
 * (for Interlaken links); for instance, gbe0, xgbe1, loop3, and
 * ilk0/12 are all possible link names.  The correspondence between
 * the link name and an mPIPE instance number or mPIPE channel number is
 * system-dependent; all links will not exist on all systems, and the set
 * of numbers used for a particular link type may not start at zero and may
 * not be contiguous.  Use gxio_mpipe_link_enumerate() to retrieve the set of
 * links which exist on a system, and always use gxio_mpipe_link_instance()
 * to determine which mPIPE controls a particular link.
 *
 * Note that in some cases, links may share hardware, such as PHYs, or
 * internal mPIPE buffers; in these cases, only one of the links may be
 * opened at a time.  This is especially common with xgbe and gbe ports,
 * since each xgbe port uses 4 SERDES lanes, each of which may also be
 * configured as one gbe port.
 *
 * @section gxio_mpipe_link_states Link States
 *
 * The mPIPE link management model revolves around three different states,
 * which are maintained for each link:
 *
 * 1. The <em>current</em> link state: is the link up now, and if so, at
 *    what speed?
 *
 * 2. The <em>desired</em> link state: what do we want the link state to be?
 *    The system is always working to make this state the current state;
 *    thus, if the desired state is up, and the link is down, we'll be
 *    constantly trying to bring it up, automatically.
 *
 * 3. The <em>possible</em> link state: what speeds are valid for this
 *    particular link?  Or, in other words, what are the capabilities of
 *    the link hardware?
 *
 * These link states are not, strictly speaking, related to application
 * state; they may be manipulated at any time, whether or not the link
 * is currently being used for data transfer.  However, for convenience,
 * gxio_mpipe_link_open() and gxio_mpipe_link_close() (or application exit)
 * can affect the link state.  These implicit link management operations
 * may be modified or disabled by the use of link open flags.
 *
 * From an application, you can use gxio_mpipe_link_get_attr()
 * and gxio_mpipe_link_set_attr() to manipulate the link states.
 * gxio_mpipe_link_get_attr() with ::GXIO_MPIPE_LINK_POSSIBLE_STATE
 * gets you the possible link state.  gxio_mpipe_link_get_attr() with
 * ::GXIO_MPIPE_LINK_CURRENT_STATE gets you the current link state.
 * Finally, gxio_mpipe_link_set_attr() and gxio_mpipe_link_get_attr()
 * with ::GXIO_MPIPE_LINK_DESIRED_STATE allow you to modify or retrieve
 * the desired link state.
 *
 * If you want to manage a link from a part of your application which isn't
 * involved in packet processing, you can use the ::GXIO_MPIPE_LINK_NO_DATA
 * flags on a gxio_mpipe_link_open() call.  This opens the link, but does
 * not request data permission, so it does not conflict with any exclusive
 * permissions which may be held by other processes.  You can then can use
 * gxio_mpipe_link_get_attr() and gxio_mpipe_link_set_attr() on this link
 * object to bring up or take down the link.
 *
 * Some links support link state bits which support various loopback
 * modes. ::GXIO_MPIPE_LINK_LOOP_MAC tests datapaths within the Tile
 * Processor itself; ::GXIO_MPIPE_LINK_LOOP_PHY tests the datapath between
 * the Tile Processor and the external physical layer interface chip; and
 * ::GXIO_MPIPE_LINK_LOOP_EXT tests the entire network datapath with the
 * aid of an external loopback connector.  In addition to enabling hardware
 * testing, such configuration can be useful for software testing, as well.
 *
 * When LOOP_MAC or LOOP_PHY is enabled, packets transmitted on a channel
 * will be received by that channel, instead of being emitted on the
 * physical link, and packets received on the physical link will be ignored.
 * Other than that, all standard GXIO operations work as you might expect.
 * Note that loopback operation requires that the link be brought up using
 * one or more of the GXIO_MPIPE_LINK_SPEED_xxx link state bits.
 *
 * Those familiar with previous versions of the MDE on TILEPro hardware
 * will notice significant similarities between the NetIO link management
 * model and the mPIPE link management model.  However, the NetIO model
 * was developed in stages, and some of its features -- for instance,
 * the default setting of certain flags -- were shaped by the need to be
 * compatible with previous versions of NetIO.  Since the features provided
 * by the mPIPE hardware and the mPIPE GXIO library are significantly
 * different than those provided by NetIO, in some cases, we have made
 * different choices in the mPIPE link management API.  Thus, please read
 * this documentation carefully before assuming that mPIPE link management
 * operations are exactly equivalent to their NetIO counterparts.
