doc: Add a man page for OPAL_PCI_SET_PHB_CAPI_MODE
We add a man page describing the opal call OPAL_PCI_SET_PHB_CAPI_MODE used for activating/deactivating CAPP attached to a PEC for CAPI 1 & 2.

OPAL_PCI_SET_PHB_CAPI_MODE | ||
=========================== | ||
|
||
Switch the CAPP attached to the given PHB in one of the supported CAPI modes | ||
|
||
Parameters | ||
---------- | ||
``uint64_t phb_id`` | ||
the ID of the PHB which identifies attached CAPP to perform mode switch on | ||
|
||
``uint64_t mode`` | ||
A mode id as described below | ||
|
||
``pe_number`` | ||
PE number for the initiating device | ||
|
||
Calling | ||
------- | ||
|
||
Switch CAPP attached to the given PHB in one of the following supported modes: | ||
|
||
OPAL_PHB_CAPI_MODE_PCIE = 0 | ||
OPAL_PHB_CAPI_MODE_CAPI = 1 | ||
OPAL_PHB_CAPI_MODE_SNOOP_OFF = 2 | ||
OPAL_PHB_CAPI_MODE_SNOOP_ON = 3 | ||
OPAL_PHB_CAPI_MODE_DMA = 4 | ||
OPAL_PHB_CAPI_MODE_DMA_TVT1 = 5 | ||
|
||
Modes `OPAL_PHB_CAPI_MODE_PCIE` and `OPAL_PHB_CAPI_MODE_CAPI` are used to | ||
enable/disable CAPP attached to the PHB. | ||
|
||
Modes `OPAL_PHB_CAPI_MODE_SNOOP_OFF` and `OPAL_PHB_CAPI_MODE_SNOOP_ON` are | ||
used to enable/disable CAPP snooping of Powerbus traffic for cache line | ||
invalidates. | ||
|
||
Mode `OPAL_PHB_CAPI_MODE_DMA` and `OPAL_PHB_CAPI_MODE_DMA_TVT1` are used to | ||
enable CAPP DMA mode. | ||
|
||
Presently Mode `OPAL_PHB_CAPI_MODE_DMA_TVT1` is exclusively used by the Mellanox | ||
CX5 adapter. Requesting this mode will also indicate to opal that the card | ||
requests maximum number of DMA read engines allocated to improve DMA read | ||
performance at cost of reduced bandwidth available to other traffic including | ||
CAPP-PSL transactions. | ||
|
||
Notes: | ||
----- | ||
* If PHB is in PEC2 then requesting mode `OPAL_PHB_CAPI_MODE_DMA_TVT1` will | ||
allocate extra 16/8 dma read engines to the PHB depending on its stack | ||
(stack 0/ stack 1). This is needed to improve the Direct-GPU DMA read | ||
performance for the Mellanox CX5 card. | ||
* Mode `OPAL_PHB_CAPI_MODE_PCIE` not yet supported on Power-9. | ||
* Requesting mode `OPAL_PHB_CAPI_MODE_CAPI` on Power-9 will disable fast-reboot. | ||
* Modes `OPAL_PHB_CAPI_MODE_DMA`, `OPAL_PHB_CAPI_MODE_SNOOP_OFF` are | ||
not supported on Power-9 yet. | ||
|
||
Return Codes | ||
------------ | ||
OPAL_SUCCESS | ||
Switch to the requested capi mode performed successfully. | ||
|
||
OPAL_PARAMETER | ||
The requested value of mode or phb_id parameter is not valid. | ||
|
||
OPAL_HARDWARE | ||
An error occurred while switching the CAPP to requested mode. | ||
|
||
OPAL_UNSUPPORTED | ||
Switching to requested capi mode is not possible at the moment | ||
|
||
OPAL_RESOURCE | ||
CAPP ucode not available hence activating CAPP not supported. | ||
|
||
OPAL_BUSY | ||
CAPP is presently in recovery-mode and mode switch cannot be performed. |
