+Netlink device hierarchical stats
+=================================
+
+Overview
+========
+
+*hstats* are standardized driver statistics. Both device and host driver
+statistics can be exposed.
+
+*hstats* are a partial replacement for `ethtool -S`, standard-based statistics
+and statistics common across many drivers should be added to *hstats*.
+Once statistic is exposed via *hstats* it should not be added to `ethtool -S`
+(drivers which already expose it can keep doing so, but no new driver allowed).
+
+Apart from common statistics identifiers *hstats* provide:
+ - clear indication if statistic is maintained (unlike more compact
+ fixed-structure stats, e.g. `struct rtnl_link_stats64`);
+ - hierarchical structure (see :ref:`groups` and :ref:`hierarchies`);
+ - exposes :ref:`qualifiers` - these are attributes of the statistics which
+ help determine the source of the statistics;
+ - provide flexible grouping mechanism which should reduce code duplication
+ amongst drivers.
+
+Netlink message structure
+=========================
+
+Basic structure of the `IFLA_STATS_LINK_HSTATS` attribute looks like this:
+
+::
+
+ [IFLA_STATS_LINK_HSTATS]
+ [IFLA_HSTATS_GROUP]
+ [IFLA_HSTATS_QUAL_xxx]
+ [IFLA_HSTATS_QUAL_yyy]
+ [IFLA_HSTATS_STATS]
+ [IFLA_HSTATS_STAT_a]
+ [IFLA_HSTATS_STAT_b]
+ [IFLA_HSTATS_GROUP]
+ [IFLA_HSTATS_QUAL_zzz]
+ [IFLA_HSTATS_STATS]
+ [IFLA_HSTATS_STAT_c]
+ [IFLA_HSTATS_STAT_d]
+ [IFLA_HSTATS_GROUP]
+ [IFLA_HSTATS_QUAL_zzz]
+ [IFLA_HSTATS_STATS]
+ [IFLA_HSTATS_STAT_c]
+ [IFLA_HSTATS_STAT_d]
+
+.. _groups:
+
+Groups
+------
+
+`IFLA_STATS_LINK_HSTATS` may contain zero or more `IFLA_HSTATS_GROUP`.
+
+The statistics within a root level `IFLA_HSTATS_GROUP` must not count
+events multiple times.
+
+The statistics within a root level `IFLA_HSTATS_GROUP` must include all
+of the events, excluding groups where `IFLA_HSTATS_PARTIAL` attribute is
+present and set to non-zero value or children of such groups
+(see :ref:`partials`). This removes the need to sum up statistics in the
+kernel, for example statistics maintained per queue by the driver can
+be reported only per queue and user space can do the adding.
+
+The purpose of multiple root level groups is to allow users tracking the flow
+of packets through pipelines. Let's consider the following RX NIC pipeline:
+
+.. _example_flow:
+
+.. kernel-figure:: hstats_flow_example.dot
+ :alt: statistics flow
+
+ Example device statistics flow diagram
+
+Each rectangle represents a root level `IFLA_STATS_LINK_HSTATS`. Users should
+be able to add all `IFLA_HSTATS_STAT_IEEE8023_FramesOK` within each of those
+groups, and compare them to see at which stage of the processing pipeline
+packets disappear.
+
+.. _qualifiers:
+
+Qualifiers
+----------
+
+Each `IFLA_HSTATS_GROUP` may have a set of qualifiers. Qualifiers are
+attributes which apply to the statistics like being a device statistic,
+being an RX statistic, or counting events/packets of a specific queue.
+See :ref:`qualifiers_list`.
+
+.. _hierarchies:
+
+Hierarchies
+-----------
+
+Each `IFLA_HSTATS_GROUP` can have further `IFLA_HSTATS_GROUP` s nested inside.
+Qualifiers of a parent group apply to the child group. The hierarchies have no
+perscribed meaning, or set structure. They are mostly present for the
+convenience of the driver authors.
+
+.. _partials:
+
+Partial groups
+--------------
+
+`IFLA_HSTATS_PARTIAL` attribute declares groups contents as incomplete.
+As explained in :ref:`groups` if a statistic is present it's sum within
+a root group must add up to total number of events seen at a given stage
+of processing. This mostly relates to iterative qualifiers like
+:ref:`qual_queue` or :ref:`qual_prio`.
+
+Counting events multiple times towards different statistics, including
+similar statistics from different families (e.g. IEEE stats vs IETF stats)
+is perfectly normal and acceptable.
+
+`IFLA_HSTATS_PARTIAL` is inherited to children the same as :ref:`qualifiers`.
+It can carry one of the following flags:
+
+IFLA_HSTATS_PARTIAL_CLASSIFIER
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Statistics from this group contain more detailed breakdown which may not
+be complete.
+
+For example, HW may maintain the number of packets received per priority,
+but packets received without a priority tag may not be counted separately.
+Since non-tagged packets are not counted the sum of statistics will not
+be complete.
+
+IFLA_HSTATS_PARTIAL_SLOWPATH
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+Statistics from this group count slow path events. This attribute is used
+if hardware is capable of offload packet forwarding. Some packets may still
+reach the CPU for example if they were purposefully trapped for monitoring,
+or no forwarding rule matched.
+
+User space guidelines
+=====================
+
+User space `hstat` tool can be used to query statistics. This tools is part
+of the `iproute2` package.
+
+Device driver guidelines
+========================
+
+Defining groups
+---------------
+
+The definition of a group of statistics has four sections:
+
+.. code-block:: c
+
+ static const struct rtnl_hstat_group my_group = {
+ /* Qualifiers */
+ .qualifiers = {
+ [RTNL_HSTATS_QUAL_TYPE] = {
+ .constant = IFLA_HSTATS_QUAL_TYPE_DEV,
+ },
+ [RTNL_HSTATS_QUAL_DIRECTION] = {
+ .constant = IFLA_HSTATS_QUAL_DIR_RX,
+ },
+ },
+ /* Partials */
+ .partial_flags = IFLA_HSTATS_PARTIAL_CLASSIFIER,
+
+ /* Statistics */
+ .get_stats = nfp_hstat_vnic_nfd_basic_get,
+ .stats = {
+ /* Word 0 stats */
+ [0] = RTNL_HSTATS_STAT_LINUX_CSUM_COMPLETE_BIT,
+ /* Word 1 stats */
+ [1] = RTNL_HSTATS_STAT_RFC2819_etherStatsPkts_BIT |
+ RTNL_HSTATS_STAT_RFC2819_etherStatsOctets_BIT,
+ },
+ .stats_cnt = 3,
+
+ /* Child groups */
+ .has_children = true,
+ .children = {
+ &my_child_group,
+ NULL
+ },
+ };
+
+Each section can be omitted, i.e. group may not specify any qualifiers,
+statistics or have no children. :ref:`qual_type` and :ref:`qual_direction`
+qualifiers must be specified before any statistics is declared, that is to
+say current group or one of parent groups must set them before any statistics
+are reported.
+
+If any qualifier is iterative (`max` or `get_max` set instead of `constant`)
+the group will be dumped `max` times, the driver can find out about parameters
+of current invocation with `rtnl_hstat_qual_get` helper.
+
+Partial flags are optional, and mark group as incomplete (see :ref:`partials`).
+
+Statistics are dumped by invoking `get_stats` callback. Driver should report
+the statistics with `rtnl_hstat_dump` helper. The list of reported statistics
+contains all the statistics driver will dump. It is used for sizing netlink
+replies and filtering. Drivers must not dump more statistics or different
+statistics than defined. The definition of the bitmap requires a little bit
+of care, as there is currently no automatic way to assign statistics to the
+correct 64 bit word.
+
+.. note::
+ Qualifier constants and parameters to `rtnl_hstat_dump` take constants
+ defined in include/uapi/linux/if_link.h, other constants come from
+ include/net/hstats.h and have the `RTNL_` prefix.
+
+If any child groups are attached the `has_children` member must be set to `true`
+and `children` table must be NULL-terminated. Child groups may be used in
+different parent groups, but care has to be taken to never create loops.
+
+Root groups should generally not have the direction set as a constant.
+Most root groups should contain both RX and TX subgroups, rather than having
+RX-only root groups and TX-only root groups.
+
+Reporting groups
+----------------
+
+Drivers have to define one or more `rtnl_hstat_group`.
+
+They should then implement `ndo_hstat_get_groups` callback. Inside the callback
+they can report every statistic group via `rtnl_hstat_add_grp` helper.
+
+Counter resets
+--------------
+
+Counters should not reset their values while the driver is bound to the device,
+e.g. when link is brought down.
+
+Counters may reset on driver load/probe or when device is explicitly reset
+via devlink.
+
+For iterative qualifiers like queues or priorities drivers should maintain
+statistics for all queues ever allocated (or simply always report for max).
+
+.. _qualifiers_list:
+
+List of qualifiers
+==================
+
+.. _qual_type:
+
+Type
+----
+
+Indicates the source of the statistic. Statistics can either be maintained
+by the device or the driver. Statistics may be calculated based on multiple
+counters (e.g. two counters may need to be added), but such calculation must
+not include statistics of different types.
+
+IFLA_HSTATS_QUAL_TYPE_DEV
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Device statistic, counter is maintained by the device and only reported by
+the driver. There is currently no distinction between hardware and
+microcode/firmware statistics.
+
+IFLA_HSTATS_QUAL_TYPE_DRV
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Driver statistic, fully maintained by software.
+
+.. _qual_direction:
+
+Direction
+---------
+
+Direction allows drivers to indicate whether statistics is counting incoming
+or outgoing frames. This is useful as it limmits the number of statistic IDs
+which have to be defined, but also often allows drivers to simplify the
+reporting if HW maintains the statitics for both directions in the same format,
+just in a different location.
+
+Direction and PCIe ports
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+For PCIe port netdevs (representors) all statistics are expressed from
+device's prespective. If frame is submitted for transmission on a PCIe
+interface it will be seen as "received" by the port (representor).
+
+This means it is possible to see transmission side-only statistics in receive
+direction and vice versa (e.g. `IFLA_HSTATS_STAT_LINUX_CSUM_PARTIAL`).
+
+Device statistics reported on port (representor) interfaces, count the total
+number of events on given device port. This includes both frames forwarded
+via the "fast path" and explicitly directed to the device port from the
+port (representor) interface.
+
+Driver statistics necessarily count only the "fallback path" frames, and
+should always be reported with `IFLA_HSTATS_PARTIAL` set to
+`IFLA_HSTATS_PARTIAL_SLOWPATH`.
+
+IFLA_HSTATS_QUAL_DIR_RX
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+received
+
+IFLA_HSTATS_QUAL_DIR_TX
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+transmitted
+
+.. _qual_queue:
+
+Queue
+-----
+
+Queue (or channel) is a Receive Side Scaling construct allowing multiple
+consumers and producers to communicate with the device. It is usually
+applicable to the PCIe interface "side" of the device.
+
+Number of reported queues is in no way indicative of how many queues are
+currently enabled on the system.
+
+.. _qual_prio:
+
+Priority
+--------
+
+Priority is defined as Layer 2 IEEE 802.1Q frame priority.
+
+Traffic class
+-------------
+
+Traffic class is any non-Layer 2 queuing and priritization.
+
+List of statistics
+==================
+
+All statistics are 64 bits.
+
+Common statistics
+-----------------
+
+Statistics from this section are not based on any standard but rather ones
+which commonly appear in Linux drivers.
+
+The fact that statistic ID is assigned for some event does not constitute
+a recommendation that given statistic is implemented by drivers. Maintaining
+statistics has a performance cost associated and should be considered carefully.
+
+.. _stat_linux_pkts:
+
+IFLA_HSTATS_STAT_LINUX_PKTS
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Number of packets which were successfully handed over to the next layer.
+This means packets passed up during reception and passed down during
+transmission. This differs from both IETF and IEEE definition of basic
+packet counters, which generally count at the same layer boundary in both
+directions.
+
+No error or discard counters are included in this counter.
+
+IFLA_HSTATS_STAT_LINUX_BYTES
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Same as :ref:`stat_linux_pkts` but counts bytes instead of packets.
+
+IFLA_HSTATS_STAT_LINUX_BUSY
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Number of times the driver returned `NETDEV_TX_BUSY` to the stack from
+in TX handler.
+
+This statistic is defined in to-device direction only.
+
+IFLA_HSTATS_STAT_LINUX_CSUM_PARTIAL
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Number of successfully handled descriptors with CHECKSUM_PARTIAL offload to
+the hardware.
+
+This statistic is defined in to-device direction only.
+
+IFLA_HSTATS_STAT_LINUX_CSUM_COMPLETE
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Number of successfully handled descriptors indicating CHECKSUM_COMPLETE.
+
+This statistic is defined in from-device direction only.
+
+IFLA_HSTATS_STAT_LINUX_CSUM_UNNECESSARY
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Number of successfully handled descriptors indicating CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY.
+
+This statistic is defined in from-device direction only.
+
+IFLA_HSTATS_STAT_LINUX_SEGMENTATION_OFFLOAD_PKTS
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+Number of successfully handled segmentation- and reassembly-offload descriptors,
+regardless of transport protocol (TSO, USO, etc.)
+
+For transmission it means the number of frames requiring segmentation submitted
+successfully to the device's transmission function (driver) or number of
+correctly parsed descriptors for such packets (device).
+
+For reception it can be used to count Generic Receive Offload frames, but *not*
+Large Receive Offload frames.
+
+This statistic is incremented once per each frame pre-segmentation as seen
+by the Linux stack, not once per each frame on the wire.
