When rules are inserted into the A-TCAM they are associated with a mask,
which is part of the lookup key: { masked key, mask ID, region ID }.
These masks are called rule patterns (RP) and the aggregation of several
masks into one (to be introduced in follow-up patch sets) is called an
extended RP (eRP).
When a packet undergoes a lookup in an ACL region it is masked by the
current set of eRPs used by the region, looking for an exact match.
Eventually, the rule with the highest priority is picked.
These eRPs are stored in several global banks to allow for lookup to
occur using several eRPs simultaneously.
At first, an ACL region will only require a single mask - upon the
insertion of the first rule. In this case, the region can use the
"master RP" which is composed by OR-ing all the masks used by the
region. This mask is a property of the region and thus there is no need
to use the above mentioned banks.
At some point, a second mask will be needed. In this case, the region
will need to allocate an eRP table from the above mentioned banks and
insert its masks there.
>From now on, upon lookup, the eRP table used by the region will be
fetched from the eRP banks - using {eRP bank, Index within the bank} -
and the eRPs present in the table will be used to mask the packet. Note
that masks with consecutive indexes are inserted into consecutive banks.
When rules are deleted and a region only needs a single mask once again
it can free its eRP table and use the master RP.
The above logic is implemented in the eRP core and represented using the
following state machine:
+------------+ create mask - as master RP +---------------+
| +--------------------------------> |
| no masks | | single mask |
| <--------------------------------+ |
+------------+ delete mask +-----+--^------+
| |
| |
create mask - | | delete mask -
create mask transition to use eRP | | transition to
+--------+ table | | use master RP
| | | |
| | | |
+----v--------+----+ create mask +----v--+-----+
| <-------------------------------+ |
| multiple masks | | two masks |
| +-------------------------------> |
+------------------+ delete mask - if two +-------------+
remaining
The code that actually configures rules in the A-TCAM will interface
with the eRP core by getting or putting an eRP based on the required
mask used by the rule.
