2007-01-09IB/ehca: Use proper GFP_ flags for get_zeroed_page()Hoang-Nam Nguyen
Here is a patch for ehca to use proper flag, ie. GFP_ATOMIC resp. GFP_KERNEL, when calling get_zeroed_page() to prevent "Bug: scheduling while atomic...". This error does not cause a kernel panic but makes ipoib un-usable afterwards. It is reproducible on 2.6.20-rc4 if one does ifconfig down during a flood ping test. I have not observed this error in earlier releases incl. 2.6.20-rc1. This error occurs when a qp event/irq is received and ehca event handler allocates a control block/page to obtain HCA error data block. Use of GFP_ATOMIC when in interrupt context prevents this issue. Signed-off-by Hoang-Nam Nguyen <hnguyen@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2006-11-09IB/ehca: Assure 4K alignment for firmware control blocksHoang-Nam Nguyen
Assure 4K alignment for firmware control blocks in 64K page mode, because kzalloc()'s result address might not be 4K aligned if 64K pages are enabled. Thus, we introduce wrappers called ehca_{alloc,free}_fw_ctrlblock(), which use a slab cache for objects with 4K length and 4K alignment in order to alloc/free firmware control blocks in 64K page mode. In 4K page mode those wrappers just are defines of get_zeroed_page() and free_page(). Signed-off-by: Hoang-Nam Nguyen <hnguyen@de.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2006-09-22IB/uverbs: Pass userspace data to modify_srq and modify_qp methodsRalph Campbell
Pass a struct ib_udata to the low-level driver's ->modify_srq() and ->modify_qp() methods, so that it can get to the device-specific data passed in by the userspace driver. Signed-off-by: Ralph Campbell <ralph.campbell@qlogic.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
