[PATCH v7 0/5] Show statistics for a vdpa device

From: Eli Cohen
Date: Tue May 17 2022 - 09:14:06 EST


The following four patch series adds support to read vendor statistics
for a vdpa device.

The first patch is just a cleanup fix.
The second patch lays the ground to allow an upstream driver to provide
statistics in the form of an attribute name/attribute value pairs.

The third patch makes changes to locking scheme to use readers/writers
semaphore instead if mutex.

The fourth patch implements this for mlx5_vdpa which gives received
descriptors and completed descriptors information for all the
virtqueues.

The fifth patch changes reslock mutex to readers/writers semaphore to
achieve the same goal as done in vdpa core.

Eli Cohen (5):
vdpa: Fix error logic in vdpa_nl_cmd_dev_get_doit
vdpa: Add support for querying vendor statistics
net/vdpa: Use readers/writers semaphore instead of mutex
vdpa/mlx5: Add support for reading descriptor statistics
vdpa/mlx5: Use readers/writers semaphore instead of mutex

v6 -> v7:
1. Add a new mlx5 patch to modify reslock from a mutex to rw_semaphore
2. Clean old comments
3. Move VDPA_ATTR_DEV_NET_CFG_MAX_VQP attribute insertion from mlx5 to
vdpa core.
