dcb pfc is used to configure Priority-based Flow Control
attributes through Linux DCB (Data Center Bridging) interface.
PFC permits marking flows with a certain priority as lossless,
and holds related configuration, as well as PFC counters.
For read-write parameters, the following describes only the write
direction, i.e. as used with the set command. For the show
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 PFC configuration.
pfc-cap
A read-only property that shows the number of traffic
classes that may simultaneously support PFC.
requests
A read-only count of the sent PFC frames per traffic
class. Only shown when -s is given, or when requested
explicitly.
indications
A read-only count of the received PFC frames per traffic
class. Only shown when -s is given, or when requested
explicitly.
macsec-bypass { on | off }
Whether the sending station is capable of bypassing MACsec
processing when MACsec is disabled.
prio-pfc PFC-MAP
PFC-MAP uses the array parameter syntax, see dcb(8) for
details. Keys are priorities, values are on / off
indicators of whether PFC is enabled for a given priority.
delay INTEGER
The allowance made for round-trip propagation delay of the
link in bits. The value shall be 0..65535.
Enable PFC on priorities 6 and 7, leaving the rest intact:
# dcb pfc set dev eth0 prio-pfc 6:on 7:on
Disable PFC of all priorities except 6 and 7, and configure delay
to 4096 bits:
# dcb pfc set dev eth0 prio-pfc all:off 6:on 7:on delay 0x1000
Show what was set:
# dcb pfc show dev eth0
pfc-cap 8 macsec-bypass off delay 4096
prio-pfc 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:on 7:on
Exit status is 0 if command was successful or a positive integer
upon failure.
