2006-06-17IB: common handling for marshalling parameters to/from userspaceSean Hefty
Provide common handling for marshalling data between userspace clients and kernel InfiniBand drivers. Signed-off-by: Sean Hefty <sean.hefty@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2006-03-20IB/uverbs: Return actual capacity from create SRQ operationDotan Barak
Pass actual capacity of created SRQ back to userspace, so that userspace can report accurate capacities. This requires an ABI bump, to change struct ib_uverbs_create_srq_resp. Signed-off-by: Dotan Barak <dotanb@mellanox.co.il> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2006-03-20IB/uverbs: Fix alignment of struct ib_uverbs_create_qp_respRoland Dreier
The size of struct ib_uverbs_create_qp_resp is not even multiple of 8 bytes. This causes problems for low-level drivers that add private data after the structure: 32-bit userspace will look in the wrong place for a response from a 64-bit kernel. Fix this by adding a reserved field. Also, bump the ABI version because this changes the size of a structure. Pointed out by Hoang-Nam Nguyen <HNGUYEN@de.ibm.com>.

2006-03-20IB/uverbs: Support for query SRQ from userspaceDotan Barak
Add support to uverbs to handle querying userspace SRQs (shared receive queues), including adding an ABI for marshalling requests and responses. The kernel midlayer already has the underlying ib_query_srq() function. Signed-off-by: Dotan Barak <dotanb@mellanox.co.il> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2006-03-20IB/uverbs: Support for query QP from userspaceDotan Barak
Add support to uverbs to handle querying userspace QPs (queue pairs), including adding an ABI for marshalling requests and responses. The kernel midlayer already has the underlying ib_query_qp() function. Signed-off-by: Dotan Barak <dotanb@mellanox.co.il> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2006-03-20IB: Whitespace cleanupsRoland Dreier
Remove trailing whitespace and fix indentation that with spaces instead of tabs. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2006-03-20IB: Add userspace support for resizing CQsRoland Dreier
Add support to uverbs to handle resizing userspace CQs (completion queues), including adding an ABI for marshalling requests and responses. The kernel midlayer already has ib_resize_cq(). Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2005-11-10[IB] uverbs: have kernel return QP capabilitiesJack Morgenstein
Move the computation of QP capabilities (max scatter/gather entries, max inline data, etc) into the kernel, and have the uverbs module return the values as part of the create QP response. This keeps precise knowledge of device limits in the low-level kernel driver. This requires an ABI bump, so while we're making changes, get rid of the max_sge parameter for the modify SRQ command -- it's not used and shouldn't be there.

2005-10-17[IB] uverbs: Add ABI structures for more commandsRoland Dreier
Add kernel/user ABI structures for marshalling poll CQ, request CQ notification, post send, post receive, post SRQ receive, create AH and destroy AH commands. These commands allow us to support userspace verbs for devices that can't perform these operations directly from userspace (eg the PathScale HCA). Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2005-10-17[IB] uverbs: ABI-breaking fixes for userspace verbsRoland Dreier
Introduce new userspace verbs ABI version 3. This eliminates some unneeded commands, and adds support for user-created completion channels. This cleans up problems with file leaks on error paths, and also makes sure that file descriptors are always installed into the correct process. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2005-09-09Make sure that userspace does not retrieve stale asynchronous orRoland Dreier
completion events after destroying a CQ, QP or SRQ. We do this by sweeping the event lists before returning from a destroy calls, and then return the number of events already reported before the destroy call. This allows userspace wait until it has processed all events for an object returned from the kernel before it frees its context for the object. The ABI of the destroy CQ, destroy QP and destroy SRQ commands has to change to return the event count, so bump the ABI version from 1 to 2. The userspace libibverbs library has already been updated to handle both the old and new ABI versions. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2005-08-26[PATCH] IB: move include files to include/rdmaRoland Dreier
Move the InfiniBand headers from drivers/infiniband/include to include/rdma. This allows InfiniBand-using code to live elsewhere, and lets us remove the ugly EXTRA_CFLAGS include path from the InfiniBand Makefiles. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
