개요

이 문서는 `mlx5` 드라이버가 제공하는 ethtool 카운터를 설명합니다. 카운터는 관측 지점과 범위에 따라 링, netdev, vPort, 물리 포트, 우선순위 포트, 장치 그룹으로 나뉩니다.

카운터 그룹

• 링 카운터: 드라이버가 소프트웨어에서 관리하는 각 RX/TX 링의 통계입니다.
• netdev 카운터: 링 카운터를 소프트웨어 포트 단위로 합산한 통계입니다.
• vPort 카운터: eSwitch에 연결된 NIC 포트의 트래픽, 조향 실패, 버퍼 부족 드롭을 셉니다. Ethernet, Raw Ethernet QP/DPDK와 RDMA/RoCE 트래픽을 구분합니다.
• 물리 포트 카운터: 외부 네트워크에 연결된 물리 포트의 표준 IEEE 802.3, RFC 2863, RFC 2819, RFC 3635 통계와 flow control, FEC 진단을 제공합니다. VM에는 노출되지 않습니다.
• 우선순위 포트 카운터: 물리 포트 카운터 일부를 L2 우선순위 0~7별로 제공합니다.
• 장치 카운터: PCIe 신호 무결성, 대역폭 혼잡과 장치 내부 버퍼 상태를 제공합니다.

카운터 유형

• 정보(Informative): 일반 동작량과 상태를 나타냅니다.
• 가속(Acceleration): NIC가 가속한 트래픽을 셉니다. 같은 트래픽이 표준 카운터에도 포함되므로 두 번 집계됩니다.
• 오류(Error): 패킷 손실, 복구, 자원 부족 또는 하드웨어 이상을 나타냅니다.

XSK, PTP, QoS 카운터 가운데 기존 카운터와 의미가 같은 대응 항목은 표에 별도로 반복하지 않습니다. 예를 들어 `ptp_tx[i]_packets`는 정밀 시간 프로토콜을 사용할 때만 집계됩니다.

링 / netdev 카운터

아래 이름은 링과 소프트웨어 포트 카운터를 함께 나타냅니다. 링 이름의 `[i]`는 실제 출력에서 괄호 없이 인덱스로 바뀌고, 포트 이름에서는 `[i]`가 빠집니다. 따라서 `rx[i]_packets`는 링 0에서 `rx0_packets`, 소프트웨어 포트에서 `rx_packets`로 출력됩니다.

Overview
========

There are several counter groups based on where the counter is being counted. In
addition, each group of counters may have different counter types.

These counter groups are based on which component in a networking setup,
illustrated below, that they describe::

Groups
======

Ring
  Software counters populated by the driver stack.

Netdev
  An aggregation of software ring counters.

vPort counters
  Traffic counters and drops due to steering or no buffers. May indicate issues
  with NIC. These counters include Ethernet traffic counters (including Raw
  Ethernet) and RDMA/RoCE traffic counters.

Physical port counters
  Counters that collect statistics about the PFs and VFs. May indicate issues
  with NIC, link, or network. This measuring point holds information on
  standardized counters like IEEE 802.3, RFC2863, RFC 2819, RFC 3635 and
  additional counters like flow control, FEC and more. Physical port counters
  are not exposed to virtual machines.

Priority Port Counters
  A set of the physical port counters, per priority per port.

Types
=====

Counters are divided into three types.

Traffic Informative Counters
  Counters which count traffic. These counters can be used for load estimation
  or for general debug.

Traffic Acceleration Counters
  Counters which count traffic that was accelerated by Mellanox driver or by
  hardware. The counters are an additional layer to the informative counter set,
  and the same traffic is counted in both informative and acceleration counters.

.. [#accel] Traffic acceleration counter.

Error Counters
  Increment of these counters might indicate a problem. Each of these counters
  has an explanation and correction action.

Statistic can be fetched via the `ip link` or `ethtool` commands. `ethtool`
provides more detailed information.::

    ip –s link show <if-name>
    ethtool -S <if-name>

Descriptions
============

XSK, PTP, and QoS counters that are similar to counters defined previously will
not be separately listed. For example, `ptp_tx[i]_packets` will not be
explicitly documented since `tx[i]_packets` describes the behavior of both
counters, except `ptp_tx[i]_packets` is only counted when precision time
protocol is used.

Ring / Netdev Counter
----------------------------
The following counters are available per ring or software port.

These counters provide information on the amount of traffic that was accelerated
by the NIC. The counters are counting the accelerated traffic in addition to the
standard counters which counts it (i.e. accelerated traffic is counted twice).

The counter names in the table below refers to both ring and port counters. The
notation for ring counters includes the [i] index without the braces. The
notation for port counters doesn't include the [i]. A counter name
`rx[i]_packets` will be printed as `rx0_packets` for ring 0 and `rx_packets` for
the software port.

링 및 소프트웨어 포트 카운터

가속 카운터는 NIC가 가속한 양을 보여 주며 동일 트래픽을 세는 표준 카운터와 함께 증가합니다. 아래 표는 링 인덱스 표기와 소프트웨어 포트 전역 표기를 모두 보존합니다.

`[#ring_global]`이 붙은 항목은 대응하는 링 카운터와 전역 카운터가 공통 명명 규칙을 따르지 않아 이름이 서로 다릅니다.
