[PATCH 1/1] net/mlx5: add dynamic logging for mlx5_dump_err_cqe

[PATCH 1/1] net/mlx5: add dynamic logging for mlx5_dump_err_cqe

[Aru Kolappan]

From: Arumugam Kolappan <aru.kolappan@oracle.com>

Presently, mlx5 driver dumps error CQE by default for few syndromes. Some
syndromes are expected due to application behavior[Ex: REMOTE_ACCESS_ERR
for revoking rkey before RDMA operation is completed]. There is no option
to disable the log if the application decided to do so. This patch
converts the log into dynamic print and by default, this debug print is
disabled. Users can enable/disable this logging at runtime if needed.

This path should be handled in switch<->case of mlx5_handle_error_cqe()
by skipping dump_cqe for MLX5_CQE_SYNDROME_REMOTE_ACCESS_ERR.

[Aru]

Hi Leon,

Thank you for reviewing the patch.

The method you mentioned disables the dump permanently for the kernel.
We thought vendor might have enabled it for their consumption when needed.
Hence we made it dynamic, so that it can be enabled/disabled at run time.

Especially, in a production environment, having the option to turn this 
log on/off
at runtime will be helpful.

Feel free to share your thoughts.

Thanks,
Aru

While you are interested on/off this specific warning, your change will
cause "to hide" all syndromes as it is unlikely that anyone runs in
production with debug prints.

 -   mlx5_ib_warn(dev, "dump error cqe\n");
 +   mlx5_ib_dbg(dev, "dump error cqe\n");

Something like this will do the trick without interrupting to the others.

Hi Leon,

Thank you for the reply and your suggested method to handle this debug 
logging.

We set 'dump=2' for the syndromes applicable to our scenario:  
MLX5_CQE_SYNDROME_REMOTE_ACCESS_ERR,
MLX5_CQE_SYNDROME_REMOTE_OP_ERR and MLX5_CQE_SYNDROME_LOCAL_PROT_ERR.
We verified this code change and by default, the dump_cqe is not printed 
to syslog until
the level is changed to KERN_DEBUG level. This works as expected.

I will send out another email with the patch using your method.

Is it fine with you If I add your name in the 'suggested-by' field in 
the new patch?

Thanks
Aru
