2009-11-19RDMA/cm: fix loopback address supportSean Hefty
The RDMA CM is intended to support the use of a loopback address when establishing a connection; however, the behavior of the CM when loopback addresses are used is confusing and does not always work, depending on whether loopback was specified by the server, the client, or both. The defined behavior of rdma_bind_addr is to associate an RDMA device with an rdma_cm_id, as long as the user specified a non- zero address. (ie they weren't just trying to reserve a port) Currently, if the loopback address is passed to rdam_bind_addr, no device is associated with the rdma_cm_id. Fix this. If a loopback address is specified by the client as the destination address for a connection, it will fail to establish a connection. This is true even if the server is listing across all addresses or on the loopback address itself. The issue is that the server tries to translate the IP address carried in the REQ message to a local net_device address, which fails. The translation is not needed in this case, since the REQ carries the actual HW address that should be used. Finally, cleanup loopback support to be more transport neutral. Replace separate calls to get/set the sgid and dgid from the device address to a single call that behaves correctly depending on the format of the device address. And support both IPv4 and IPv6 address formats.

2009-08-23RDS: Track transports via an array, not a listAndy Grover
Now that transports can be loaded in arbitrary order, it is important for rds_trans_get_preferred() to look for them in a particular order, instead of walking the list until it finds a transport that works for a given address. Now, each transport registers for a specific transport slot, and these are ordered so that preferred transports come first, and then if they are not loaded, other transports are queried.

2009-07-20RDS/IB: Always use PAGE_SIZE for FMR page sizeAndy Grover
While FMRs allow significant flexibility in what size of pages they can use, we really just want FMR pages to match CPU page size. Roland says we can count on this always being supported, so this simplifies things. Signed-off-by: Andy Grover <andy.grover@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-07-20RDS: Set retry_count to 2 and make modifiable via modparamAndy Grover
This will be default cause IB connections to failover faster, but allow a longer retry count to be used if desired. Signed-off-by: Andy Grover <andy.grover@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2009-04-02RDS: Rewrite connection cleanup, fixing oops on rmmodAndy Grover
This fixes a bug where a connection was unexpectedly not on *any* list while being destroyed. It also cleans up some code duplication and regularizes some function names. * Grab appropriate lock in conn_free() and explain in comment * Ensure via locking that a conn is never not on either a dev's list or the nodev list * Add rds_xx_remove_conn() to match rds_xx_add_conn() * Make rds_xx_add_conn() return void * Rename remove_{,nodev_}conns() to destroy_{,nodev_}conns() and unify their implementation in a helper function * Document lock ordering as nodev conn_lock before dev_conn_lock Reported-by: Yosef Etigin <yosefe@voltaire.com> Signed-off-by: Andy Grover <andy.grover@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Registers as an RDS transport and an IB client, and uses IB CM API to allocate ids, queue pairs, and the rest of that fun stuff. Signed-off-by: Andy Grover <andy.grover@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
