Roland Dreier 4c0283fc56 IB/core: Remove IB_DEVICE_SEND_W_INV capability flag
In 2.6.26, we added some support for send with invalidate work
requests, including a device capability flag to indicate whether a
device supports such requests.  However, the support was incomplete:
the completion structure was not extended with a field for the key
contained in incoming send with invalidate requests.

Full support for memory management extensions (send with invalidate,
local invalidate, fast register through a send queue, etc) is planned
for 2.6.27.  Since send with invalidate is not very useful by itself,
just remove the IB_DEVICE_SEND_W_INV bit before the 2.6.26 final
release; we will add an IB_DEVICE_MEM_MGT_EXTENSIONS bit in 2.6.27,
which makes things simpler for applications, since they will not have
quite as confusing an array of fine-grained bits to check.

Roland Dreier 0f39cf3d54 IB/core: Add support for "send with invalidate" work requests
Add a new IB_WR_SEND_WITH_INV send opcode that can be used to mark a
"send with invalidate" work request as defined in the iWARP verbs and
the InfiniBand base memory management extensions.  Also put "imm_data"
and a new "invalidate_rkey" member in a new "ex" union in struct
ib_send_wr. The invalidate_rkey member can be used to pass in an
R_Key/STag to be invalidated.  Add this new union to struct
ib_uverbs_send_wr.  Add code to copy the invalidate_rkey field in
ib_uverbs_post_send().

Fix up low-level drivers to deal with the change to struct ib_send_wr,
and just remove the imm_data initialization from net/sunrpc/xprtrdma/,
since that code never does any send with immediate operations.

Also, move the existing IB_DEVICE_SEND_W_INV flag to a new bit, since
the iWARP drivers currently in the tree set the bit.  The amso1100
driver at least will silently fail to honor the IB_SEND_INVALIDATE bit
if passed in as part of userspace send requests (since it does not
implement kernel bypass work request queueing).  Remove the flag from
all existing drivers that set it until we know which ones are OK.

The values chosen for the new flag is not consecutive to avoid clashing
with flags defined in the XRC patches, which are not merged yet but
which are already in use and are likely to be merged soon.

This resurrects a patch sent long ago by Mikkel Hagen <mhagen@iol.unh.edu>.

Roland Dreier f7c6a7b5d5 IB/uverbs: Export ib_umem_get()/ib_umem_release() to modules
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.

Roland Dreier ed23a72778 IB: Return "maybe missed event" hint from ib_req_notify_cq()
The semantics defined by the InfiniBand specification say that
completion events are only generated when a completions is added to a
completion queue (CQ) after completion notification is requested.  In
other words, this means that the following race is possible:

	while (CQ is not empty)
		ib_poll_cq(CQ);
	// new completion is added after while loop is exited
	ib_req_notify_cq(CQ);
	// no event is generated for the existing completion

To close this race, the IB spec recommends doing another poll of the
CQ after requesting notification.

However, it is not always possible to arrange code this way (for
example, we have found that NAPI for IPoIB cannot poll after
requesting notification).  Also, some hardware (eg Mellanox HCAs)
actually will generate an event for completions added before the call
to ib_req_notify_cq() -- which is allowed by the spec, since there's
no way for any upper-layer consumer to know exactly when a completion
was really added -- so the extra poll of the CQ is just a waste.

Motivated by this, we add a new flag "IB_CQ_REPORT_MISSED_EVENTS" for
ib_req_notify_cq() so that it can return a hint about whether the a
completion may have been added before the request for notification.
The return value of ib_req_notify_cq() is extended so:

	 < 0	means an error occurred while requesting notification
	== 0	means notification was requested successfully, and if
		IB_CQ_REPORT_MISSED_EVENTS was passed in, then no
		events were missed and it is safe to wait for another
		event.
	 > 0	is only returned if IB_CQ_REPORT_MISSED_EVENTS was
		passed in.  It means that the consumer must poll the
		CQ again to make sure it is empty to avoid the race
		described above.

We add a flag to enable this behavior rather than turning it on
unconditionally, because checking for missed events may incur
significant overhead for some low-level drivers, and consumers that
don't care about the results of this test shouldn't be forced to pay
for the test.

Michael S. Tsirkin f4fd0b224d IB: Add CQ comp_vector support
Add a num_comp_vectors member to struct ib_device and extend
ib_create_cq() to pass in a comp_vector parameter -- this parallels
the userspace libibverbs API.  Update all hardware drivers to set
num_comp_vectors to 1 and have all ULPs pass 0 for the comp_vector
value.  Pass the value of num_comp_vectors to userspace rather than
hard-coding a value of 1.

We want multiple CQ event vector support (via MSI-X or similar for
adapters that can generate multiple interrupts), but it's not clear
how many vectors we want, or how we want to deal with policy issues
such as how to decide which vector to use or how to set up interrupt
affinity.  This patch is useful for experimenting, since no core
changes will be necessary when updating a driver to support multiple
vectors, and we know that we want to make at least these changes
anyway.

Michael S. Tsirkin 062dbb69f3 IB: Return qp pointer as part of ib_wc
struct ib_wc currently only includes the local QP number: this matches
the IB spec, but seems mostly useless. The following patch replaces
this with the pointer to qp itself, and updates all low level drivers
and all users.

This has the following advantages:
- Ability to get a per-qp context through wc->qp->qp_context
- Existing drivers already have the qp pointer ready in poll cq, so
  this change actually saves a tiny bit (extra memory read) on data path
  (for ehca it would actually be expensive to find the QP pointer when
  polling a CQ, but ehca does not support SRQ so we can leave wc->qp as
  NULL for ehca)
- Users that need the QP number can still get it through wc->qp->qp_num

Use case:

In IPoIB connected mode code, I have a common CQ shared by multiple
QPs.  To track connection usage, I need a way to get at some per-QP
context upon the completion, and I would like to avoid allocating
context object per work request just to stick a QP pointer into it.
With this code, I can just use wc->qp->qp_context.

Roland Dreier 9ead190bfd IB/uverbs: Don't serialize with ib_uverbs_idr_mutex
Currently, all userspace verbs operations that call into the kernel
are serialized by ib_uverbs_idr_mutex.  This can be a scalability
issue for some workloads, especially for devices driven by the ipath
driver, which needs to call into the kernel even for datapath
operations.

Fix this by adding reference counts to the userspace objects, and then
converting ib_uverbs_idr_mutex into a spinlock that only protects the
idrs long enough to take a reference on the object being looked up.
Because remove operations may fail, we have to do a slightly funky
two-step deletion, which is described in the comments at the top of
uverbs_cmd.c.

This also still leaves ib_uverbs_idr_lock as a single lock that is
possibly subject to contention.  However, the lock hold time will only
be a single idr operation, so multiple threads should still be able to
make progress, even if ib_uverbs_idr_lock is being ping-ponged.

Surprisingly, these changes even shrink the object code:

add/remove: 23/5 grow/shrink: 4/21 up/down: 633/-693 (-60)

Sean Hefty 34816ad98e [IB] Fix MAD layer DMA mappings to avoid touching data buffer once mapped
The MAD layer was violating the DMA API by touching data buffers used
for sends after the DMA mapping was done.  This causes problems on
non-cache-coherent architectures, because the device doing DMA won't
see updates to the payload buffers that exist only in the CPU cache.

Fix this by having all MAD consumers use ib_create_send_mad() to
allocate their send buffers, and moving the DMA mapping into the MAD
layer so it can be done just before calling send (and after any
modifications of the send buffer by the MAD layer).

Tested on a non-cache-coherent PowerPC 440SPe system.

Roland Dreier 883a99c702 [IB] uverbs: Add a mask of device methods allowed for userspace
Give each device a uverbs_cmd_mask, so that a low-level driver can
control which methods may be called on behalf of userspace.

Roland Dreier 63c47c286d [IB] uverbs: Close some exploitable races
Al Viro pointed out that the current IB userspace verbs interface
allows userspace to cause mischief by closing file descriptors before
we're ready, or issuing the same command twice at the same time.  This
patch closes those races, and fixes other obvious problems such as a
module reference leak.

Some other interface bogosities will require an ABI change to fix
properly, so I'm deferring those fixes until 2.6.15.

Roland Dreier a4d61e8480 [PATCH] IB: move include files to include/rdma
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.
