2007-06-07[IPV4]: Convert IPv4 devconf to an arrayHerbert Xu
This patch converts the ipv4_devconf config members (everything except sysctl) to an array. This allows easier manipulation which will be needed later on to provide better management of default config values. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

2007-05-29IB/cm: Fix stale connection detectionSean Hefty
The ib_cm can incorrectly detect a stale connection (a new connection request for a QPN that is already connected) as a duplicate connection request.

2007-05-29IPoIB/cm: Fix performance regression on MellanoxMichael S. Tsirkin
commit 518b1646 ("IPoIB/cm: Fix SRQ WR leak") introduced a severe performance regression on Mellanox cards, because keeping a QP in the error state for extended periods of time moves hardware to the slow path (until the QP is destroyed). For example, MPI latency goes from ~3 usecs to ~7 usecs. Fix this by posting a send WR on one of the QPs that are being flushed, instead of using a separate drain QP that is kept in the error state. This fixes bug <https://bugs.openfabrics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=636>, reported and bisected by Scott Weitzenkamp at Cisco and debugged by Sasha Mikheev at Voltaire. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2007-05-29IB/mthca: Fix handling of send CQE with error for QPs connected to SRQMichael S. Tsirkin
mthca_free_err_wqe() currently treats both send and receive CQEs identically if a QP is using an SRQ. But for Tavor hardware, send CQEs with error can be chained together even if the RQ is part of SRQ, so we may miss some CQEs. Fix by following the WQE chain for all send CQEs even for non-SRQ QPs.

2007-05-24IB/mlx4: Initialize send queue entry ownership bitsEli Cohen
We need to initialize the owner bit of send queue WQEs to hardware ownership whenever the QP is modified from reset to init, not just when the QP is first allocated.

2007-05-21IB/cm: Improve local id allocationMichael S. Tsirkin
The IB CM uses an idr for local id allocations, with a running counter as start_id. This fails to generate distinct ids if 1. An id is constantly created and destroyed 2. A chunk of ids just beyond the current next_id value is occupied This in turn leads to an increased chance of connection request being mis-detected as a duplicate, sometimes for several retries, until next_id gets past the block of allocated ids. This has been observed in practice. As a fix, remember the last id allocated and start immediately above it. This also fixes a problem with the old code, where next_id might overflow and become negative. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

2007-05-21IPoIB/cm: Fix SRQ WR leakMichael S. Tsirkin
SRQ WR leakage has been observed with IPoIB/CM: e.g. flipping ports on and off will, with time, leak out all WRs and then all connections will start getting RNR NAKs. Fix this in the way suggested by spec: move the QP being destroyed to the error state, wait for "Last WQE Reached" event and then post WR on a "drain QP" connected to the same CQ. Once we observe a completion on the drain QP, it's safe to call ib_destroy_qp. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@dev.mellanox.co.il> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>

2007-05-21Detach sched.h from mm.hAlexey Dobriyan
First thing mm.h does is including sched.h solely for can_do_mlock() inline function which has "current" dereference inside. By dealing with can_do_mlock() mm.h can be detached from sched.h which is good. See below, why. This patch a) removes unconditional inclusion of sched.h from mm.h b) makes can_do_mlock() normal function in mm/mlock.c c) exports can_do_mlock() to not break compilation d) adds sched.h inclusions back to files that were getting it indirectly. e) adds less bloated headers to some files (asm/signal.h, jiffies.h) that were getting them indirectly Net result is: a) mm.h users would get less code to open, read, preprocess, parse, ... if they don't need sched.h b) sched.h stops being dependency for significant number of files: on x86_64 allmodconfig touching sched.h results in recompile of 4083 files, after patch it's only 3744 (-8.3%).

2007-05-19IB/ipath: Fix potential deadlock with multicast spinlocksRoland Dreier
Lockdep found the following potential deadlock between mcast_lock and n_mcast_grps_lock: mcast_lock is taken from both interrupt context and process context, so spin_lock_irqsave() must be used to take it. n_mcast_grps_lock is only taken from process context, so at first it seems safe to take it with plain spin_lock(); however, it also nests inside mcast_lock, and hence we could deadlock: cpu A cpu B ipath_mcast_add(): spin_lock_irq(&mcast_lock); ipath_mcast_detach(): spin_lock(&n_mcast_grps_lock); <enter interrupt> ipath_mcast_find(): spin_lock_irqsave(&mcast_lock); spin_lock(&n_mcast_grps_lock); Fix this by using spin_lock_irq() to take n_mcast_grps_lock.

2007-05-14IB/ipath: Shadow the gpio_mask registerArthur Jones
Once upon a time, GPIO interrupts were rare. But then a chip bug in the waldo series forced the use of a GPIO interrupt to signal packet reception. This greatly increased the frequency of GPIO interrupts which have the gpio_mask bits set on the waldo chips. Other bits in the gpio_status register are used for I2C clock and data lines, these bits are usually on. An "unlikely" annotation leftover from the old days was improperly applied to these bits, and an unnecessary chip mmio read was being accessed in the interrupt fast path on waldo. Remove the stagnant unlikely annotation in the interrupt handler and keep a shadow copy of the gpio_mask register to avoid the slow mmio read when testing for interruptable GPIO bits.

Add an InfiniBand driver for Mellanox ConnectX adapters. Because these adapters can also be used as ethernet NICs and Fibre Channel HBAs, the driver is split into two modules: mlx4_core: Handles low-level things like device initialization and processing firmware commands.

2007-05-08IB: Put rlimit accounting struct in struct ib_umemRoland Dreier
When memory pinned with ib_umem_get() is released, ib_umem_release() needs to subtract the amount of memory being unpinned from mm->locked_vm. However, ib_umem_release() may be called with mm->mmap_sem already held for writing if the memory is being released as part of an munmap() call, so it is sometimes necessary to defer this accounting into a workqueue. However, the work struct used to defer this accounting is dynamically allocated before it is queued, so there is the possibility of failing that allocation. If the allocation fails, then ib_umem_release has no choice except to bail out and leave the process with a permanently elevated locked_vm. Fix this by allocating the structure to defer accounting as part of the original struct ib_umem, so there's no possibility of failing a later allocation if creating the struct ib_umem and pinning memory succeeds.

2007-05-08IB/uverbs: Export ib_umem_get()/ib_umem_release() to modulesRoland Dreier
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. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
