    octeontx2-pf: PFC config support with DCBx · 8e675581
    Hariprasad Kelam authored
    Data centric bridging designed to eliminate packet loss due to
    queue overflow by adding enhancements to ethernet network such as
    proprity flow control etc. This patch adds support for management
    of Priority flow control(PFC) on Octeontx2 and CN10K interfaces.
    
    To enable PFC for all priorities
    	dcb pfc set dev eth0 prio-pfc all:on/off
    
    To enable PFC on selected priorites
    	dcb pfc set dev eth0 prio-pfc 0:on/off 1:on/off ..7:on/off
    
    With the ntuple commands user can map Priority to receive queues.
    On queue overflow NIX will assert backpressure such that PFC pause frames
    are genarated with mapped priority.
    
    To map priority 7 to Queue 1
    ethtool -U eth0 flow-type ether dst xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx vlan 0xe00a
    m 0x1fff  queue 1
