Linux kernel source tree
SFs (Sub Functions) currently use IRQs from the global IRQ table their parent Physical Function have. In order to better scale, we need to allocate more IRQs and share them between different SFs. Driver will maintain 3 separated irq pools: 1. A pool that serve the PF consumer (PF's netdev, rdma stacks), similar to what the driver had before this patch. i.e, this pool will share irqs between rdma and netev, and will keep the irq indexes and allocation order. The last is important for PF netdev rmap (aRFS). 2. A pool of control IRQs for SFs. The size of this pool is the number of SFs that can be created divided by SFS_PER_IRQ. This pool will serve the control path EQs of the SFs. 3. A pool of completion data path IRQs for SFs transport queues. The size of this pool is: num_irqs_allocated - pf_pool_size - sf_ctrl_pool_size. This pool will served netdev and rdma stacks. Moreover, rmap is not supported on SFs. Sharing methodology of the SFs pools is explained in the next patch. Important note: rmap is not supported on SFs because rmap mapping cannot function correctly for IRQs that are shared for different core/netdev RX rings.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
