Texas Instruments CPSW ethernet driver¶
Multiqueue & CBS & MQPRIO¶
The cpsw has 3 CBS shapers for each external ports. This document describes MQPRIO and CBS Qdisc offload configuration for cpsw driver based on examples. It potentially can be used in audio video bridging (AVB) and time sensitive networking (TSN).
The following examples were tested on AM572x EVM and BBB boards.
Test setup¶
Under consideration two examples with AM572x EVM running cpsw driver in dual_emac mode.
Several prerequisites:
TX queues must be rated starting from txq0 that has highest priority
Traffic classes are used starting from 0, that has highest priority
CBS shapers should be used with rated queues
The bandwidth for CBS shapers has to be set a little bit more then potential incoming rate, thus, rate of all incoming tx queues has to be a little less
Real rates can differ, due to discreetness
Map skb-priority to txq is not enough, also skb-priority to l2 prio map has to be created with ip or vconfig tool
Any l2/socket prio (0 - 7) for classes can be used, but for simplicity default values are used: 3 and 2
only 2 classes tested: A and B, but checked and can work with more, maximum allowed 4, but only for 3 rate can be set.
