Hi, As Bala mentioned, the intention is that user refers to an interface (by name) only once and that’s in odp_pktio_open(). The resulting handle is used in other packet IO calls after that.
We may need to specify two different handle types / APIs: one for managing interface level configuration (cf. physical function, one per interface), and one for packet IO / configuration read access (cf. virtual function, many per interface). The first would be used e.g. to set interface MAC address or promiscuous mode. The second could be used to read current MAC address, etc - in addition to packet IO. -Petri From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of ext Bala Manoharan Sent: Tuesday, August 19, 2014 12:14 PM To: Alexandru Badicioiu Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: [lng-odp] [PATCH 1/1] API support to get mac address of an interface using odp_pktio_t Hi, If we add this additional API odp_get_mac_addr(const char* dev, char* mac_addr) then we need to have a limitation that this API cannot be called in case of bare-metal implementation before calling odp_pktio_open(). The reason I am sceptical about this API is that this provides a means to access the mac_addr of an interface without using the odp_pktio_t handle which defeats the purpose of abstraction. But if there is a consensus on this new API then I can add the same and provide a patch. We can discuss this topic in detail during todays ODP call.

This is why I think there should be also an API call for getting the MAC address from a specific name.

In case of a bare-metal implementation the physical port will have to be initialized and mac address needs to be assigned to the port during initialization. Hence odp_pktio_open() call can be used to initialize the physical port and once the port gets initialized the mac_address of the port can be read using pktio handle. Pls let me know if I am missing some points from your description.

The reason I decided to go ahead with getting mac address only though odp_pktio_t is because if we have this API to get mac address directly with the device name then the user can try to get mac address of a device even without creating the PKTIO instance for the device. Which could have an issue in the systems where some initialization is done during PKTIO creation. Also the check for validating the device name could be kept in odp_pktio_open() call alone. Maybe I'm not aware of all the cases, but in Linux usually you don't need to bring up an interface (which triggers the netdev_ops open() call) to get the MAC address of the Ethernet port. However, there is no restriction that *dev argument of pktio_open() should denote an Ethernet interface or to be possible to derive a single Ethernet port from it. I think in this case a (const char *dev, char *mac_addr) function is mandatory.

From the documentation it looks like the *dev is the actual IO device: /** * Open an ODP packet IO instance * * @param dev Packet IO device * @param pool Pool to use for packet IO * @param params Set of parameters to pass to the arch dependent implementation * * @return ODP packet IO handle or ODP_PKTIO_INVALID on error */ odp_pktio_t odp_pktio_open(const char *dev, odp_buffer_pool_t pool, odp_pktio_params_t *params); Should we have also an API call : int odp_get_mac_addr(const char *dev, unsigned char* mac_addr) ?
