Hello, Xiaoyun,

Thanks indeed for the advice, and so fast reply, will check these 
implementation like i40e_dev_tx_queue_setup_runtime() in i40e, to see how to 
use it in ixgbe😊

Best Regards,
Dave(Jianyue)

Hi

You probably can do runtime tx/rx queue for ixgbe vf too.
And you’re right, you need to add RTE_ETH_DEV_CAPA_RUNTIME_RX_QUEUE_SETUP | 
RTE_ETH_DEV_CAPA_RUNTIME_TX_QUEUE_SETUP for dev_capa.

And the most important thing is you need to do something like 
i40e_dev_rx_queue_setup_runtime() for i40e.
This function does some queue configuration check and the most important thing 
queue_init. Because queue_init is in dev_start, so runtime queue needs extra 
queue_init first.
And don’t forget that the first queue needs to set rx_funtion.

Anyway, you need to do similar things (i40e_dev_rx/tx_queue_setup_runtime) for 
ixgbevf.

I don’t see anything else you need to be careful about but not 100% sure.

BRs
Xiaoyun

Hello,

How can we do it like this? Thanks😊
https://doc.dpdk.org/dts/test_plans/dynamic_queue_test_plan.html#:~:text=Dynamic%20queue%20%C2%B6%20Currently%2C%20to%20configure%20a%20DPDK,the%20device%2C%20at%20this%20point%20traffic%20can%20flow.

Dynamic queue lets etherdev driver exposes the capability flag through 
rte_eth_dev_info_get when it supports deferred queue configuraiton, then base 
on this flag, rte_eth_[rx|tx]_queue_setup could decide to continue to setup the 
queue or just return fail when device already started.
rte_eth_dev_info_get->dev_info_get for X552 VF didn’t set flag of 
RTE_ETH_DEV_CAPA_RUNTIME_TX_QUEUE_SETUP.

Hello,

How can we enable runtime tx queue setup in XEON X552 eth device? Thanks indeed!
Now try to add queue in runtime in X552 VF, error will be reported.
“rte_eth_tx_quuee_setup: err=-16, port = 1”
Here -16 means EBUSY, because the eth device is already started, if configure 
this interface before start, it is fine.

If I try to add dev_capa in ixgbevf_dev_info_get() in DPDK code, then another 
error will be reported.
“Ethdev port_id=0 tx_queue_id=1, new added offloads 0x4000 must be within 
per-queue offload capabilities 0x0 in rte_eth_tx_queue_setup()”

While in X552 datasheet, it says it is supported.

In DPDK i40e driver, seems runtime tx queue setup is supported(setup TxQ when 
eth interface is running)
drivers/net/i40e/i40e_ethdev.c
                dev_info->dev_capa =
                                RTE_ETH_DEV_CAPA_RUNTIME_RX_QUEUE_SETUP |
                                RTE_ETH_DEV_CAPA_RUNTIME_TX_QUEUE_SETUP;
