It can be also used to inspect the current +configuration, as well as total device memory that the port buffers take. + +.SH PARAMETERS + +For read-write parameters, the following describes only the write direction, +i.e. as used with the \fBset\fR command. For the \fBshow\fR command, the +parameter name is to be used as a simple keyword without further arguments. This +instructs the tool to show the value of a given parameter. When no parameters +are given, the tool shows the complete buffer configuration. + +.TP +.B total-size +A read-only property that shows the total device memory taken up by port +buffers. This might be more than a simple sum of individual buffer sizes if +there are any hidden or internal buffers. + +.TP +.B prio-buffer \fIPRIO-MAP +\fIPRIO-MAP\fR uses the array parameter syntax, see +.BR dcb (8) +for details. Keys are priorities, values are buffer indices. For each priority +sets a buffer where traffic with that priority is directed to. + +.TP +.B buffer-size \fISIZE-MAP +\fISIZE-MAP\fR uses the array parameter syntax, see +.BR dcb (8) +for details. Keys are buffer indices, values are sizes of that buffer in bytes. +The sizes can use the notation documented in section PARAMETERS at +.BR tc (8). +Note that the size requested by the tool can be rounded or capped by the driver +to satisfy the requirements of the device. + +.SH EXAMPLE & USAGE + +Configure the priomap in a one-to-one fashion: + +.P +# dcb buffer set dev eth0 prio-buffer 0:0 1:1 2:2 3:3 4:4 5:5 6:6 7:7 + +Set sizes of all buffers to 10KB, except for buffer 6, which will have the size +1MB: + +.P +# dcb buffer set dev eth0 buffer-size all:10K 6:1M + +Show what was set: + +.P +# dcb buffer show dev eth0 +.br +prio-buffer 0:0 1:1 2:2 3:3 4:4 5:5 6:6 7:7 +.br +buffer-size 0:10Kb 1:10Kb 2:10Kb 3:10Kb 4:10Kb 5:10Kb 6:1Mb 7:10Kb +.br +total-size 1222Kb + +.SH EXIT STATUS +Exit status is 0 if command was successful or a positive integer upon failure. + +.SH SEE ALSO +.BR dcb (8) + +.SH REPORTING BUGS +Report any bugs to the Network Developers mailing list +.B <netdev@vger.kernel.org> +where the development and maintenance is primarily done. +You do not have to be subscribed to the list to send a message there. + +.SH AUTHOR +Petr Machata <me@pmachata.org> |
