2008-07-26dma-mapping: add the device argument to dma_mapping_error()FUJITA Tomonori
Add per-device dma_mapping_ops support for CONFIG_X86_64 as POWER architecture does: This enables us to cleanly fix the Calgary IOMMU issue that some devices are not behind the IOMMU (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/8/423). I think that per-device dma_mapping_ops support would be also helpful for KVM people to support PCI passthrough but Andi thinks that this makes it difficult to support the PCI passthrough (see the above thread). So I CC'ed this to KVM camp. Comments are appreciated. A pointer to dma_mapping_ops to struct dev_archdata is added. If the pointer is non NULL, DMA operations in asm/dma-mapping.h use it. If it's NULL, the system-wide dma_ops pointer is used as before. If it's useful for KVM people, I plan to implement a mechanism to register a hook called when a new pci (or dma capable) device is created (it works with hot plugging). It enables IOMMUs to set up an appropriate dma_mapping_ops per device. The major obstacle is that dma_mapping_error doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA operations. So x86 can't have dma_mapping_ops per device. Note all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function so this is not a problem for POWER but x86 IOMMUs use different dma_mapping_error functions. The first patch adds the device argument to dma_mapping_error. The patch is trivial but large since it touches lots of drivers and dma-mapping.h in all the architecture. This patch: dma_mapping_error() doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA operations. So we can't have dma_mapping_ops per device. Note that POWER already has dma_mapping_ops per device but all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function. x86 IOMMUs use device argument.

2008-07-22IB/mthca: Keep free count for MTT buddy allocatorRoland Dreier
MTT entries are allocated with a buddy allocator, which just keeps bitmaps for each level of the buddy table. However, all free space starts out at the highest order, and small allocations start scanning from the lowest order. When the lowest order tables have no free space, this can lead to scanning potentially millions of bits before finding a free entry at a higher order. We can avoid this by just keeping a count of how many free entries each order has, and skipping the bitmap scan when an order is completely empty. This provides a nice performance boost for a negligible increase in memory usage. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>

2008-07-14RDMA/cxgb3: Fixes for zero STagSteve Wise
Handling the zero STag in receive work request requires some extra logic in the driver: - Only set the QP_PRIV bit for kernel mode QPs. - Add a zero STag build function for recv wrs. The uP needs a PBL allocated and passed down in the recv WR so it can construct a HW PBL for the zero STag S/G entries. Note: we need to place a few restrictions on zero STag usage because of this: 1) all SGEs in a recv WR must either be zero STag or not. No mixing. 2) an individual SGE length cannot exceed 128MB for a zero-stag SGE. This should be OK since it's not really practical to allocate such a large chunk of pinned contiguous DMA mapped memory. - Add an optimized non-zero-STag recv wr format for kernel users. This is needed to optimize both zero and non-zero STag cracking in the recv path for kernel users. - Remove the iwch_ prefix from the static build functions. - Bump required FW version.

2008-07-14IB/ipath: Use IEEE OUI for vendor_id reported by ibv_query_device()Ralph Campbell
The IB spe. for SubnGet(NodeInfo) and query HCA says that the vendor ID field should be the IEEE OUI assigned to the vendor. The ipath driver was returning the PCI vendor ID instead. This will affect applications which call ibv_query_device(). The old value was 0x001fc1 or 0x001077, the new value is 0x001175. The vendor ID doesn't appear to be exported via /sys so that should reduce possible compatibility issues.

2008-07-14RDMA/core: Add memory management extensions supportSteve Wise
This patch adds support for the IB "base memory management extension" (BMME) and the equivalent iWARP operations (which the iWARP verbs mandates all devices must implement). The new operations are: - Allocate an ib_mr for use in fast register work requests. - Allocate/free a physical buffer lists for use in fast register work requests. This allows device drivers to allocate this memory as needed for use in posting send requests (eg via dma_alloc_coherent). - New send queue work requests: * send with remote invalidate * fast register memory region * local invalidate memory region * RDMA read with invalidate local memory region (iWARP only) Consumer interface details: - A new device capability flag IB_DEVICE_MEM_MGT_EXTENSIONS is added to indicate device support for these features. - New send work request opcodes IB_WR_FAST_REG_MR, IB_WR_LOCAL_INV, IB_WR_RDMA_READ_WITH_INV are added. - A new consumer API function, ib_alloc_mr() is added to allocate fast register memory regions. - New consumer API functions, ib_alloc_fast_reg_page_list() and ib_free_fast_reg_page_list() are added to allocate and free device-specific memory for fast registration page lists. - A new consumer API function, ib_update_fast_reg_key(), is added to allow the key portion of the R_Key and L_Key of a fast registration MR to be updated. Consumers call this if desired before posting a IB_WR_FAST_REG_MR work request. Consumers can use this as follows: - MR is allocated with ib_alloc_mr(). - Page list memory is allocated with ib_alloc_fast_reg_page_list(). - MR R_Key/L_Key "key" field is updated with ib_update_fast_reg_key(). - MR made VALID and bound to a specific page list via ib_post_send(IB_WR_FAST_REG_MR) - MR made INVALID via ib_post_send(IB_WR_LOCAL_INV), ib_post_send(IB_WR_RDMA_READ_WITH_INV) or an incoming send with invalidate operation. - MR is deallocated with ib_dereg_mr() - page lists dealloced via ib_free_fast_reg_page_list(). Applications can allocate a fast register MR once, and then can repeatedly bind the MR to different physical block lists (PBLs) via posting work requests to a send queue (SQ). For each outstanding MR-to-PBL binding in the SQ pipe, a fast_reg_page_list needs to be allocated (the fast_reg_page_list is owned by the low-level driver from the consumer posting a work request until the request completes). Thus pipelining can be achieved while still allowing device-specific page_list processing. The 32-bit fast register memory key/STag is composed of a 24-bit index and an 8-bit key. The application can change the key each time it fast registers thus allowing more control over the peer's use of the key/STag (ie it can effectively be changed each time the rkey is rebound to a page list).

2008-07-14IB/mlx4: Optimize QP stampingEli Cohen
The idea is that for QPs with fixed size work requests (eg selective signaling QPs), before stamping the WQE, we read the value of the DS field, which gives the effective size of the descriptor as used in the previous post. Then we stamp only that area, since the rest of the descriptor is already stamped. When initializing the send queue buffer, make sure the DS field is initialized to the max descriptor size so that the subsequent stamping will be done on the entire descriptor area.

2008-06-20Add a bunch of cycle_kernel_lock() callsJonathan Corbet
All of the open() functions which don't need the BKL on their face may still depend on its acquisition to serialize opens against driver initialization. So make those functions acquire then release the BKL to be on the safe side. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
2008-06-20Add "no BKL needed" comments to several driversJonathan Corbet
This documents the fact that somebody looked at the relevant open() functions and concluded that, due to their trivial nature, no locking was needed. Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
