igc: Add launch time support to XDP ZC
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Enable Launch Time Control (LTC) support for XDP zero copy via XDP Tx
metadata framework.

This patch has been tested with tools/testing/selftests/bpf/xdp_hw_metadata
on Intel I225-LM Ethernet controller. Below are the test steps and result.

Test 1: Send a single packet with the launch time set to 1 s in the future.

Test steps:
1. On the DUT, start the xdp_hw_metadata selftest application:
   $ sudo ./xdp_hw_metadata enp2s0 -l 1000000000 -L 1

2. On the Link Partner, send a UDP packet with VLAN priority 1 to port 9091
   of the DUT.

Result:
When the launch time is set to 1 s in the future, the delta between the
launch time and the transmit hardware timestamp is 0.016 us, as shown in
printout of the xdp_hw_metadata application below.

Test 2: Send 1000 packets with a 10 ms interval and the launch time set to
        500 us in the future.

Test steps:
1. On the DUT, start the xdp_hw_metadata selftest application:
   $ sudo chrt -f 99 ./xdp_hw_metadata enp2s0 -l 500000 -L 1 > \
     /dev/shm/result.log

2. On the Link Partner, send 1000 UDP packets with a 10 ms interval and
   VLAN priority 1 to port 9091 of the DUT.

Result:
When the launch time is set to 500 us in the future, the average delta
between the launch time and the transmit hardware timestamp is 0.016 us,
as shown in the analysis of /dev/shm/result.log below. The XDP launch time
works correctly in sending 1000 packets continuously.
  Min delta: 0.005 us
  Avr delta: 0.016 us
  Max delta: 0.031 us
  Total packets forwarded: 1000
