Project/Component Working Name: oce - Emulex PCIe converged NIC driver 1.2. Name of Document Author/Supplier: Author: Sukumar Swaminathan 1.3 Date of This Document: 30 September, 2009 4. Technical Description This oce driver will support Emulex PCIe Converged Network Adapter. The driver and adapter will support 10GB interface only. 10GBASE-SR and IEEE 802.3aq-2006 PHY layers will be supported. Model numbers for initial Emulex adapers are OCe10102-N and OCe10102-F. Source code for this oce driver will be coming from Emulex. This driver will be open sourced in Nevada and will also go into s10u9. Patch binding is needed for s10u9 support. Driver will be integrated into ON Consolidation. This is a gldv3 based driver. This will support core gldv3 functions on both SPARC and x86 platforms. Brussels and Quiesce Features will be supported in Nevada only. HW checksum offload, LSO offload, and Jumbo frames Features will be supported in both Nevada and S10. Driver source will be open. This case should be run as Open case. 6870995 FCoE, oce driver - Add NIC side of support for new Emulex FCoE adapter, Europa 6880011 oce NIC driver from Emulex need new man page oce(7d) 6.

I think I'm going to be asking the same question Rich did in the other case. What does it really mean that this is a converged NIC driver. From what I can tell from both of these cases there is a physical bit of hardware that does two things. Yet the drivers for these cases only mention the GLDv3 networking part. So how are these different to other NIC drivers for things on the motherboard ? Is there going to be a single driver for the GLDv3 part and the "other" part ? What is the "other" part ? If it is separate drivers then I don't see what the issue really is. The only thing I can relate to is the vca(7D) driver for the SCA-4000 that you were involved in. -- Darren J Moffat From Mark.Carlson@sun.com Thu Oct 1 02:48:03 2009 Received: from sunmail5.uk.sun.com (sunmail5.UK.Sun.COM [129.156.85.165]) by sac.sfbay.sun.com (8.13.8+Sun/8.13.8) with ESMTP id n919m2oR001331 for ; Thu, 1 Oct 2009 02:48:03 -0700 (PDT) Received: from nwk-avmta-1.SFBay.Sun.COM (nwk-avmta-1.SFBay.Sun.COM [129.146.11.74]) by sunmail5.uk.sun.com (8.13.8+Sun/8.13.8/ENSMAIL,v2.2) with ESMTP id n919lpGm005540 for <@sunmail2sca.sfbay.sun.com:PSARC-ext@sun.com>; Thu, 1 Oct 2009 10:48:02 +0100 (BST) Received: from pmxchannel-daemon.nwk-avmta-1.sfbay.Sun.COM by nwk-avmta-1.sfbay.Sun.COM (Sun Java System Messaging Server 6.2-3.04 (built Jul 15 2005)) id <0KQT00901XW1KG00@nwk-avmta-1.sfbay.Sun.COM> for PSARC-ext@sun.com (ORCPT PSARC-ext@sun.com); Thu, 01 Oct 2009 02:48:01 -0700 (PDT) Received: from brmea-mail-1.sun.com ([192.18.98.31]) by nwk-avmta-1.sfbay.Sun.COM (Sun Java System Messaging Server 6.2-3.04 (built Jul 15 2005)) with ESMTP id <0KQT005U4XW0U520@nwk-avmta-1.sfbay.Sun.COM> for PSARC-ext@sun.com (ORCPT PSARC-ext@sun.com); Thu, 01 Oct 2009 02:48:00 -0700 (PDT) Received: from fe-amer-10.sun.com ([192.18.109.80]) by brmea-mail-1.sun.com (8.13.6+Sun/8.12.9) with ESMTP id n919m0oF014955 for ; Thu, 01 Oct 2009 09:48:00 +0000 (GMT) Received: from conversion-daemon.mail-amer.sun.com by mail-amer.sun.com (Sun Java(tm) System Messaging Server 7u2-7.04 64bit (built Jul 2 2009)) id <0KQT00700XJPBD00@mail-amer.sun.com> for PSARC-ext@sun.com (ORCPT PSARC-ext@sun.com); Thu, 01 Oct 2009 03:48:00 -0600 (MDT) Received: from vpn-129-150-64-43.east.sun.com ([unknown] [129.150.64.43]) by mail-amer.sun.com (Sun Java(tm) System Messaging Server 7u2-7.04 64bit (built Jul 2 2009)) with ESMTPSA id <0KQT00CUOXVYKM80@mail-amer.sun.com>; Thu, 01 Oct 2009 03:48:00 -0600 (MDT) Date: Thu, 01 Oct 2009 03:47:58 -0600 From: "Mark A.

My guess is that these adapters probably also register with SCSA.

So two completely separate drivers and the HBA and NIC drivers don't need to be aware of each other. In that case I'd say the fact that this is "converged" hardware doesn't seem that relevant. -- Darren J Moffat From Sukumar.Swaminathan@sun.com Thu Oct 1 07:31:24 2009 Received: from newsunmail1brm.central.sun.com (newsunmail1brm.Central.Sun.COM [129.147.62.245]) by sac.sfbay.sun.com (8.13.8+Sun/8.13.8) with ESMTP id n91EVOaJ005021 for ; Thu, 1 Oct 2009 07:31:24 -0700 (PDT) Received: from nwk-avmta-1.SFBay.Sun.COM (nwk-avmta-1.SFBay.Sun.COM [129.146.11.74]) by newsunmail1brm.central.sun.com (8.13.7+Sun/8.13.7/ENSMAIL,v2.2) with ESMTP id n91EVJ3u036809 for <@sunmail2sca.sfbay.sun.com:PSARC-ext@sun.com>; Thu, 1 Oct 2009 08:31:24 -0600 (MDT) Received: from pmxchannel-daemon.nwk-avmta-1.sfbay.Sun.COM by nwk-avmta-1.sfbay.Sun.COM (Sun Java System Messaging Server 6.2-3.04 (built Jul 15 2005)) id <0KQU00L1LB0AXI00@nwk-avmta-1.sfbay.Sun.COM> for PSARC-ext@sun.com (ORCPT PSARC-ext@sun.com); Thu, 01 Oct 2009 07:31:22 -0700 (PDT) Received: from brmea-mail-1.sun.com ([192.18.98.31]) by nwk-avmta-1.sfbay.Sun.COM (Sun Java System Messaging Server 6.2-3.04 (built Jul 15 2005)) with ESMTP id <0KQU00BC5B0AD4B0@nwk-avmta-1.sfbay.Sun.COM> for PSARC-ext@sun.com (ORCPT PSARC-ext@sun.com); Thu, 01 Oct 2009 07:31:22 -0700 (PDT) Received: from fe-amer-09.sun.com ([192.18.109.79]) by brmea-mail-1.sun.com (8.13.6+Sun/8.12.9) with ESMTP id n91EVMS0005748 for ; Thu, 01 Oct 2009 14:31:22 +0000 (GMT) Received: from conversion-daemon.mail-amer.sun.com by mail-amer.sun.com (Sun Java(tm) System Messaging Server 7u2-7.04 64bit (built Jul 2 2009)) id <0KQU00300ASWK500@mail-amer.sun.com> for PSARC-ext@sun.com (ORCPT PSARC-ext@sun.com); Thu, 01 Oct 2009 08:31:22 -0600 (MDT) Received: from [192.192.192.100] ([unknown] [75.171.179.165]) by mail-amer.sun.com (Sun Java(tm) System Messaging Server 7u2-7.04 64bit (built Jul 2 2009)) with ESMTPSA id <0KQU00D2FB03HK60@mail-amer.sun.com>; Thu, 01 Oct 2009 08:31:20 -0600 (MDT) Date: Thu, 01 Oct 2009 08:31:12 -0600 From: Sukumar Swaminathan Subject: Re: oce - Emulex PCIe converged NIC driver [PSARC/2009/526 FastTrack timeout 10/07/2009] In-reply-to: <4AC47ACE.5090708@sun.com> Sender: Sukumar.Swaminathan@sun.com To: "Mark A.

I think I'm going to be asking the same question Rich did in the other case.

What does it really mean that this is a converged NIC driver.  From what I can tell from both of these cases there is a physical bit of hardware that does two things.  Yet the drivers for these cases only mention the GLDv3 networking part.   So how are these different to other NIC drivers for things on the motherboard ?

Is there going to be a single driver for the GLDv3 part and the "other" part ?  What is the "other" part ?  If it is separate drivers then I don't see what the issue really is.

The only thing I can relate to is the vca(7D) driver for the SCA-4000 that you were involved in.
