2007-02-16RDMA/cma: Add multicast communication supportSean Hefty
Extend rdma_cm to support multicast communication. Multicast support is added to the existing RDMA_PS_UDP port space, as well as a new RDMA_PS_IPOIB port space. The latter port space allows joining the multicast groups used by IPoIB, which enables offloading IPoIB traffic to a separate QP. The port space determines the signature used in the MGID when joining the group. The newly added RDMA_PS_IPOIB also allows for unicast operations, similar to RDMA_PS_UDP. Supporting the RDMA_PS_IPOIB requires changing how UD QPs are initialized, since we can no longer assume that the qkey is constant. This requires saving the Q_Key to use when attaching to a device, so that it is available when creating the QP. The Q_Key information is exported to the user through the existing rdma_init_qp_attr() interface. Multicast support is also exported to userspace through the rdma_ucm.

2006-12-12RDMA/cma: Add support for RDMA_PS_UDPSean Hefty
Allow the use of UD QPs through the rdma_cm, in order to provide address translation services for resolving IB addresses for datagram messages using SIDR. Signed-off-by: Sean Hefty <sean.hefty@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2006-12-12RDMA/cma: Allow early transition to RTS to handle lost CM messagesSean Hefty
During connection establishment, the passive side of a connection can receive messages from the active side before the connection event has been delivered to the user. Allow the passive side to send messages in response to received data before the event is delivered. To handle the case where the connection messages are lost, a new rdma_notify() function is added that users may invoke to force a connection into the established state.

2006-12-12RDMA/cma: Report connect info with connect eventsSean Hefty
Connection information was never given to the recipient of a connection request or reply message. Only the event was delivered. Report the connection data with the event to allows user to reject the connection based on the requested parameters, or adjust their resources to match the request.

2006-12-12RDMA/cma: Remove unneeded qp_type parameter from rdma_cmSean Hefty
The qp_type parameter into the rdma_cm is unneeded, and can be misleading. The QP type should be determined from the port space. Signed-off-by: Sean Hefty <sean.hefty@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>

2006-06-17IB: IP address based RDMA connection managerSean Hefty
Kernel connection management agent over InfiniBand that connects based on IP addresses. The agent defines a generic RDMA connection abstraction to support clients wanting to connect over different RDMA devices. The agent also handles RDMA device hotplug events on behalf of clients.
