Currently, iw_cxgb3 is severely limited on the amount of userspace
memory that can be registered in in a single memory region, which
causes big problems for applications that expect to be able to
register 100s of MB.
The problem is that the driver uses a single kmalloc()ed buffer to
hold the physical buffer list (PBL) for the entire memory region
during registration, which means that 8 bytes of contiguous memory are
required for each page of memory being registered. For example, a 64
MB registration will require 128 KB of contiguous memory with 4 KB
pages, and it unlikely that such an allocation will succeed on a busy
system.
This is purely a driver problem: the temporary page list buffer is not
needed by the hardware, so we can fix this by writing the PBL to the
hardware in page-sized chunks rather than all at once. We do this by
splitting the memory registration operation up into several steps:
- Allocate PBL space in adapter memory for the full registration
- Copy PBL to adapter memory in chunks
- Allocate STag and enable memory region
This also allows several other cleanups to the __cxio_tpt_op()
interface and related parts of the driver.
This change leaves the reregister memory region and memory window
operations broken, but they already didn't work due to other
longstanding bugs, so fixing them will be left to a later patch.

Current iw_cxgb3 code adds PBL memory to the driver's gen_pool in 2 MB
chunks. This limits the largest single allocation that can be done to
the same size, which means that with 4 KB pages, each of which takes 8
bytes of PBL memory, the largest memory region that can be allocated
is 1 GB (256K PBL entries * 4 KB/entry).
Remove this limit by adding all the PBL memory in a single gen_pool
chunk, if possible. Add code that falls back to smaller chunks if
gen_pool_add() fails, which can happen if there is not sufficient
contiguous lowmem for the internal gen_pool bitmap.

Open MPI, Intel MPI and other applications don't respect the iWARP
requirement that the client (active) side of the connection send the
first RDMA message. This class of application connection setup is
called peer-to-peer. Typically once the connection is setup, _both_
sides want to send data.
This patch enables supporting peer-to-peer over the chelsio RNIC by
enforcing this iWARP requirement in the driver itself as part of RDMA
connection setup.
Connection setup is extended, when the peer2peer module option is 1,
such that the MPA initiator will send a 0B Read (the RTR) just after
connection setup. The MPA responder will suspend SQ processing until
the RTR message is received and reply-to.
In the longer term, this will be handled in a standardized way by
enhancing the MPA negotiation so peers can indicate whether they
want/need the RTR and what type of RTR (0B read, 0B write, or 0B send)
should be sent. This will be done by standardizing a few bits of the
private data in order to negotiate all this. However this patch
enables peer-to-peer applications now and allows most of the required
firmware and driver changes to be done and tested now.
Design:
- Add a module option, peer2peer, to enable this mode.
- New firmware support for peer-to-peer mode:
- a new bit in the rdma_init WR to tell it to do peer-2-peer
and what form of RTR message to send or expect.
- process _all_ preposted recvs before moving the connection
into rdma mode.
- passive side: defer completing the rdma_init WR until all
pre-posted recvs are processed. Suspend SQ processing until
the RTR is received.
- active side: expect and process the 0B read WR on offload TX
queue. Defer completing the rdma_init WR until all
pre-posted recvs are processed. Suspend SQ processing until
the 0B read WR is processed from the offload TX queue.
- If peer2peer is set, driver posts 0B read request on offload TX
queue just after posting the rdma_init WR to the offload TX queue.
- Add CQ poll logic to ignore unsolicitied read responses.

Add a new IB_WR_SEND_WITH_INV send opcode that can be used to mark a
"send with invalidate" work request as defined in the iWARP verbs and
the InfiniBand base memory management extensions. Also put "imm_data"
and a new "invalidate_rkey" member in a new "ex" union in struct
ib_send_wr. The invalidate_rkey member can be used to pass in an
R_Key/STag to be invalidated. Add this new union to struct
ib_uverbs_send_wr. Add code to copy the invalidate_rkey field in
ib_uverbs_post_send().
Fix up low-level drivers to deal with the change to struct ib_send_wr,
and just remove the imm_data initialization from net/sunrpc/xprtrdma/,
since that code never does any send with immediate operations.
Also, move the existing IB_DEVICE_SEND_W_INV flag to a new bit, since
the iWARP drivers currently in the tree set the bit. The amso1100
driver at least will silently fail to honor the IB_SEND_INVALIDATE bit
if passed in as part of userspace send requests (since it does not
implement kernel bypass work request queueing). Remove the flag from
all existing drivers that set it until we know which ones are OK.
The values chosen for the new flag is not consecutive to avoid clashing
with flags defined in the XRC patches, which are not merged yet but
which are already in use and are likely to be merged soon.

Because of a typo in iwch_accept_cr(), the cxgb3 connection handling
code programs the hardware IRD (incoming RDMA read queue depth) with

an app that expects only incoming RDMA read requests), then the

This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe. This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables. The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl
were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.
vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.
So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces. The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace. This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.
For now the ifindex generator is left global.
Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.
At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change. Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.

Export ib_umem_get()/ib_umem_release() and put low-level drivers in
control of when to call ib_umem_get() to pin and DMA map userspace,
rather than always calling it in ib_uverbs_reg_mr() before calling the
low-level driver's reg_user_mr method.
Also move these functions to be in the ib_core module instead of
ib_uverbs, so that driver modules using them do not depend on
ib_uverbs.
This has a number of advantages:
- It is better design from the standpoint of making generic code a
library that can be used or overridden by device-specific code as
the details of specific devices dictate.
- Drivers that do not need to pin userspace memory regions do not
need to take the performance hit of calling ib_mem_get(). For
example, although I have not tried to implement it in this patch,
the ipath driver should be able to avoid pinning memory and just
use copy_{to,from}_user() to access userspace memory regions.
- Buffers that need special mapping treatment can be identified by
the low-level driver. For example, it may be possible to solve
some Altix-specific memory ordering issues with mthca CQs in
userspace by mapping CQ buffers with extra flags.
- Drivers that need to pin and DMA map userspace memory for things
other than memory regions can use ib_umem_get() directly, instead
of hacks using extra parameters to their reg_phys_mr method. For
example, the mlx4 driver that is pending being merged needs to pin
and DMA map QP and CQ buffers, but it does not need to create a
memory key for these buffers. So the cleanest solution is for mlx4
to call ib_umem_get() in the create_qp and create_cq methods.

The semantics defined by the InfiniBand specification say that
completion events are only generated when a completions is added to a
completion queue (CQ) after completion notification is requested. In
other words, this means that the following race is possible:
while (CQ is not empty)
ib_poll_cq(CQ);
// new completion is added after while loop is exited
ib_req_notify_cq(CQ);
// no event is generated for the existing completion
To close this race, the IB spec recommends doing another poll of the
CQ after requesting notification.
However, it is not always possible to arrange code this way (for
example, we have found that NAPI for IPoIB cannot poll after
requesting notification). Also, some hardware (eg Mellanox HCAs)
actually will generate an event for completions added before the call
to ib_req_notify_cq() -- which is allowed by the spec, since there's
no way for any upper-layer consumer to know exactly when a completion
was really added -- so the extra poll of the CQ is just a waste.
Motivated by this, we add a new flag "IB_CQ_REPORT_MISSED_EVENTS" for
ib_req_notify_cq() so that it can return a hint about whether the a
completion may have been added before the request for notification.
The return value of ib_req_notify_cq() is extended so:
< 0 means an error occurred while requesting notification
== 0 means notification was requested successfully, and if
IB_CQ_REPORT_MISSED_EVENTS was passed in, then no
events were missed and it is safe to wait for another
event.
> 0 is only returned if IB_CQ_REPORT_MISSED_EVENTS was
passed in. It means that the consumer must poll the
CQ again to make sure it is empty to avoid the race
described above.
We add a flag to enable this behavior rather than turning it on
unconditionally, because checking for missed events may incur
significant overhead for some low-level drivers, and consumers that
don't care about the results of this test shouldn't be forced to pay
for the test.

Add a num_comp_vectors member to struct ib_device and extend
ib_create_cq() to pass in a comp_vector parameter -- this parallels

num_comp_vectors to 1 and have all ULPs pass 0 for the comp_vector
value. Pass the value of num_comp_vectors to userspace rather than
hard-coding a value of 1.
We want multiple CQ event vector support (via MSI-X or similar for
adapters that can generate multiple interrupts), but it's not clear
how many vectors we want, or how we want to deal with policy issues
such as how to decide which vector to use or how to set up interrupt
affinity. This patch is useful for experimenting, since no core
changes will be necessary when updating a driver to support multiple
vectors, and we know that we want to make at least these changes
anyway.

The HW now posts 2 ABORT_RPL and/or PEER_ABORT_REQ messages. We need
to handle them by silenty dropping the 1st but mark that we're ready
for the final message. This plugs some close races between the uP and
HW. Also update the minimum required firmware version.
