Portcounterinc Algorithm, Intotaldiscards | Intel IXP1200 manual

IXP1200 Network Processor Family ATM OC-3/12/Ethernet IP Router Example Design

Parameter	Description

IN_TOTAL_DISCARDS	Address of global discard counter.

	Highest valid port number -- from a per-port counters point of view.
	If the sum of IN_PORT_BASE and in_port_index exceeds
IN_MAX_PORT_NUMBER	IN_MAX_PORT_NUMBER, then the port number is truncated to
IN_MAX_PORT_NUMBER	IN_MAX_PORT_NUMBER. This allows limiting the scratchpad
	RAM dedicated to counters while still allowing event counting on
	very high numbered ports (e.g., logical ports used by the
	StrongARM core)

	Counter increment flag. Must match the
	COUNTERS_ENABLE_MASK bit. If set to
IN_ENABLE_FLAGS	COUNT_PORT_EXCEPTIONS, the global counter at
	IN_TOTAL_DISCARDS will be incremented in addition to the per-
	port counter.

port_counter_inc() Algorithm

#if (IN_ENABLE_FLAGS & COUNTERS_ENABLE_MASK)

addr = IN_PORT_COUNTERS_BASE + 16 * (IN_PORT_BASE + in_port_index) +

IN_EXCEPTION_INDEX *addr += 1

#endif

#if (IN_ENABLE_FLAGS & COUNT_PORT_EXCEPTIONS) IN_TOTAL_DISCARDS += 1

#endif

Example

#define COUNT_PORT_EVENTS (1 << 11) // normal port activity #define COUNT_PORT_EXCEPTIONS (1 << 12) // per-port exceptions

The 16 per-port counters are named by various include files, as summarized by the string table that counters_print() uses to print the per-port counters:

char *port_counter_strings [] = { "PORT_FULLQ",//0x00 port.uc "PORT_RXERROR", //0x01 port.uc "PORT_RXFAIL",//0x02 port.uc "port counter 3", "PORT_RXCANCEL",//0x04 port.uc "PORT_SHDBE_SOP",//0x05 port.uc "PORT_SHDBE_NOT_SOP", //0x06 port.uc "port counter 7", "IP_BAD_TOTAL_LENGTH", //0x08 ip.uc "IP_BAD_TTL", //0x09 ip.uc "IP_BAD_CHECKSUM", //0x0a ip.uc "IP_NO_ROUTE", //0x0b ip.uc "IP_INVALID_ADDRESS", //0x0c ip.uc "MAC_INVALID_ADDRESS", //0x0d ether.uc "IP_DBCAST_ADDRESS", //0x0e ip.uc "PORT_DISABLED", //0x0f ip.uc

#define PORT_EXCEPTION EXCEPTION_COUNTERS, TOTAL_DISCARDS, ATM_PORT3,

COUNT_PORT_EXCEPTIONS
