2019-03-18vmxnet3: auto bind supportSteven Luong1-7/+14
For creating the vmxnet3 interface, add the bind option to automatically bind the pci to vfio-pci module which removes the need for manual bind. Manual bind still works, should people prefer to go that route. Change-Id: Ife75926f8755d754a08dd0ecff0f1de326ad5ba1 Signed-off-by: Steven Luong <sluong@cisco.com>

2018-10-16vmxnet3: show vmxnet3 with filtering capability [VPP-1452]Steven1-1/+2
show vmxnet3 desc may display 5000 lines of output since it has 5 tables. Each table may have 1000 entries. It would not be very useful to debug problem. We need filtering capability for the subject show command. We need to be able to display the descriptor table per interface, per interface per table, and per interface per table per slot. The latter is the most useful. tested the following valid combinations show vmxnet3 show vmxnet3 desc show vmxnet3 vmxnet3-0/13/0/0 show vmxnet3 vmxnet3-0/13/0/0 desc show vmxnet3 vmxnet3-0/13/0/0 rx-comp show vmxnet3 vmxnet3-0/13/0/0 rx-comp 1 show vmxnet3 vmxnet3-0/13/0/0 tx-comp show vmxnet3 vmxnet3-0/13/0/0 tx-comp 1 show vmxnet3 vmxnet3-0/13/0/0 rx-desc-0 show vmxnet3 vmxnet3-0/13/0/0 rx-desc-0 1 show vmxnet3 vmxnet3-0/13/0/0 rx-desc-1 show vmxnet3 vmxnet3-0/13/0/0 rx-desc-1 1 show vmxnet3 vmxnet3-0/13/0/0 tx-desc show vmxnet3 vmxnet3-0/13/0/0 tx-desc 1 negative tests and command is rejected show vmxnet3 abc show vmxnet3 desc abc show vmxnet3 vmxnet3-0/13/0/0 abc show vmxnet3 vmxnet3-0/13/0/0 desc abc show vmxnet3 vmxnet3-0/13/0/0 rx-comp abc show vmxnet3 vmxnet3-0/13/0/0 rx-comp 1 abc Change-Id: I0ff233413496e58236f8fb4a94e493494c20c5cb Signed-off-by: Steven <sluong@cisco.com>
