Add initial chassis management support for Nvidia modular Ethernet switch systems MSN4800, providing a high performance switching solution for Enterprise Data Centers (EDC) for building Ethernet based clusters, High-Performance Computing (HPC) and embedded environments. This system could be equipped with the different types of replaceable line cards and management board. The first system flavor will support the line card type MSN4800-C16 equipped with Lattice CPLD devices aimed for system and ASIC control, one Nvidia FPGA for gearboxes (PHYs) management, and four Nvidia gearboxes for the port control and with 16x100GbE QSFP28 ports and also with various devices for electrical control. The system is equipped with eight slots for line cards, four slots for power supplies and six slots for fans. It could be configured as fully populated or with even only one line card. The line cards are hot-pluggable. In the future when more line card flavors are to be available (for example line cards with 8x200Gb Eth port, with 4x400 Eth ports, or with some kind of smart cards for offloading purpose), any type of line card could be inserted at any slot. The system is based on Nvidia Spectrum-3 ASIC. The switch height is 4U and it fits standard rack size. System could be configured as fully populated or with even only one line card. The line cards are hot-pluggable. Line cards are connected to the chassis through I2C interface for the chassis management operations and through PCIe for the networking operations. Future line cards could be connected to the chassis through InfiniBand fabric, instead of PCIe. The first type of line card supports 16x100GbE QSFP28 Ethernet ports. Those line cards equipped with the programmable devices aimed for system control of Nvidia Ethernet switch ASIC control, Nvidia FPGA, Nvidia gearboxes (PHYs). The next coming card generations are supposed to support: - Line cards with 8x200Gbe QSFP28 Ethernet ports. - Line cards with 4x400Gbe QSFP-DD Ethernet ports. - Smart cards equipped with Nvidia ARM CPU for offloading and for fast access to the storage (EBoF). - Fabric cards for inter-connection. The basic system initialization flow with input signals from the programmable device to kernel hotplug driver and with OS response to some of these signals is depicted below. lc#n_prsnt *-> Input: line card presence in/out events. Informational event. Required action - 'udev' event generation for logging. lc#n_verified *-> Input: line card verification status events coming after line card security signature validation by hardware. Required action - connect line card driver and initialized line card devices feeding from system auxiliary power domain. lc#n_pwr <-* Output: line card power on / off from OS. Action should be performed by platform power management driver. lc#n_powered *-> Input: line card power on/off events coming after line card "power good" on/off events, mean that line card power up sequence has been successfully completed or line card "power good" status has been dropped. Required action - connect line card devices feeding from system main power domain. lc#n_synced *-> Input: line card synchronization events, coming after hardware-firmware synchronization handshake. Required action - to enable line card, in case lc#n_ready has been received before. lc#n_ready *-> Input: line card ready events, indicating line card PHYs ready / unready states. Required action - enable line card, in case lc#n_synced has been received before. lc#n_enable <-* Output: line card enable from OS - release FPGA and PHYs line card devices from reset state. Action should be performed by platform power management driver. lc#n_active *-> Input: when line card "active event" is received for particular line card, its network, hardware monitoring and thermal interfaces should be configured according to the configuration obtained from the firmware. When opposite "inactive event" is received all the above interfaces should be teared down. Required action - connect / disconnect the above line card interfaces through ASIC I2C chassis management driver. For initial support: - Define new system type 'VMOD0011' to support new modular system. - Provide initial platform configuration for new system type. - Extend the registers definitions. - Add support for modular system registers related to line card specific events - insertion/removal, power on/off, verification and activation. - Add hotplug configuration for the above events. - Add configurations for hotplug actions for the modular system.
