Atomic operations on the NFP are currently always in big endian.
The driver keeps track of regions of memory storing atomic values
and byte swaps them accordingly. There are corner cases where
the map values may be initialized before the driver knows they
are used as atomic counters. This can happen either when the
datapath is performing the update and the stack contents are
unknown or when map is updated before the program which will
use it for atomic values is loaded.
To avoid situation where user initializes the value to 0 1 2 3
and then after loading a program which uses the word as an atomic
counter starts reading 3 2 1 0 - only allow atomic counters to be
initialized to endian-neutral values.
For updates from the datapath the stack information may not be
as precise, so just allow initializing such values to 0.
Example code which would break:
struct bpf_map_def SEC("maps") rxcnt = {
.type = BPF_MAP_TYPE_HASH,
.key_size = sizeof(__u32),
.value_size = sizeof(__u64),
.max_entries = 1,
};
int xdp_prog1()
{
__u64 nonzeroval = 3;
__u32 key = 0;
__u64 *value;
value = bpf_map_lookup_elem(&rxcnt, &key);
if (!value)
bpf_map_update_elem(&rxcnt, &key, &nonzeroval, BPF_ANY);
else
__sync_fetch_and_add(value, 1);
return XDP_PASS;
}
$ offload bpftool map dump
key: 00 00 00 00 value: 00 00 00 03 00 00 00 00
should be:
$ offload bpftool map dump
key: 00 00 00 00 value: 03 00 00 00 00 00 00 00

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
