6 supports Ethernet functionality over Omni-Path fabric by encapsulating
7 the Ethernet packets between HFI nodes.
11 The patterns of exchanges of Omni-Path encapsulated Ethernet packets
12 involves one or more virtual Ethernet switches overlaid on the Omni-Path
14 permitted to exchange encapsulated Ethernet packets across a particular
15 virtual Ethernet switch. The virtual Ethernet switches are logical
18 nodes across the fabric exchange encapsulated Ethernet packets over a
19 single virtual Ethernet switch. A virtual Ethernet switch, is effectively
20 an independent Ethernet network. The configuration is performed by an
21 Ethernet Manager (EM) which is part of the trusted Fabric Manager (FM)
23 different virtual Ethernet switch. The below diagram presents a case
24 of two virtual Ethernet switches with two HFI nodes::
28 | Ethernet |
36 | Virtual Ethernet Switch | | Virtual Ethernet Switch |
52 The Omni-Path encapsulated Ethernet packet format is as described below.
69 0-7 L4 type (=0x78 ETHERNET)
79 32-63 Ethernet Packet
82 0-63 Ethernet packet (pad extended)
85 0-23 Ethernet packet (pad extended)
91 Ethernet packet is padded on the transmit side to ensure that the VNIC OPA

122 It consists of two parts. The VNIC Ethernet Management Agent (VEMA)
124 IB MAD stack. It exchanges the management information with the Ethernet
128 operation. It also handles the encapsulation of Ethernet packets with an
