When multiple VFs do FLR at the same time, the firmware is
processed serially, resulting in some VF FLRs being delayed more
than 100ms, when the virtual machine restarts and the device
driver is loaded, the firmware is doing the corresponding VF
FLR, causing the driver to fail to load.

To solve this problem, add host and firmware status synchronization
during FLR.

Is this because the Huawei Intelligent NIC isn't following the spec,
or is it because Linux isn't correctly waiting for the FLR to
complete?

Seems like a spec compliance issue, I don't recall anything in the spec
about coordinating FLR between VFs.

The spec stipulates that the FLR time of a single VF does not exceed
100ms, but when multiple VMs are reset concurrently in Linux, there will
be multiple VF parallel FLRs, VF of Huawei Intelligent NIC
FLR will exceed 100ms in this case.

If this is a Huawei Intelligent NIC defect, is there documentation
somewhere (errata) that you can reference? Will it be fixed in future
designs, so we don't have to add future Device IDs to the quirk?

I don't know exactly what this is testing, but it seems like a
feature/capability test that can fail, why is it not done as part of
the probe? Can we define bit 6 with a macro? Same for bit 10 in the
VF op register below.

The firmware of Huawei Intelligent NIC does not support this feature in
the old version. here is the reading ability to determine whether the
firmware supports it.
In the next patch, I will add a comment here and replace bit 6 and bit
10 with macro definitions.


The question remains why this is not done as part of the probe. If the
device firmware doesn't support it, isn't it better to try a regular
FLR and have it return error if the time is exceeded rather than claim
we have a functional device specific reset quirk that will always fail
without ever attempting to FLR the VF? Thanks,

Alex


The firmware has always supported regular FLR. The regular FLR process waits for 100ms after the FLR is triggered and the FLR is considered to be completed, but the Huawei Intelligent NIC will exceed 100ms when the VF FLR is parallel, so we now need to increase the host to confirm that the firmware completes the FLR processing operation.
So in the probe stage, we return to support FLR, but there is no place to return whether the firmware supports FLR completion ack capability. We need to add checks during FLR, If the firmware does not support FLR completion ack capability, then return -ENOTTY, the kernel will still execute the regular FLR process.

Yikes, 15s timeout!

Huawei Intelligent NIC supports a maximum of 496 VFs, so the total
timeout period is set to 15s, which will not reach the timeout time
under normal circumstances.
