2008-07-26dma-mapping: add the device argument to dma_mapping_error()FUJITA Tomonori
Add per-device dma_mapping_ops support for CONFIG_X86_64 as POWER architecture does: This enables us to cleanly fix the Calgary IOMMU issue that some devices are not behind the IOMMU (http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/5/8/423). I think that per-device dma_mapping_ops support would be also helpful for KVM people to support PCI passthrough but Andi thinks that this makes it difficult to support the PCI passthrough (see the above thread). So I CC'ed this to KVM camp. Comments are appreciated. A pointer to dma_mapping_ops to struct dev_archdata is added. If the pointer is non NULL, DMA operations in asm/dma-mapping.h use it. If it's NULL, the system-wide dma_ops pointer is used as before. If it's useful for KVM people, I plan to implement a mechanism to register a hook called when a new pci (or dma capable) device is created (it works with hot plugging). It enables IOMMUs to set up an appropriate dma_mapping_ops per device. The major obstacle is that dma_mapping_error doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA operations. So x86 can't have dma_mapping_ops per device. Note all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function so this is not a problem for POWER but x86 IOMMUs use different dma_mapping_error functions. The first patch adds the device argument to dma_mapping_error. The patch is trivial but large since it touches lots of drivers and dma-mapping.h in all the architecture. This patch: dma_mapping_error() doesn't take a pointer to the device unlike other DMA operations. So we can't have dma_mapping_ops per device. Note that POWER already has dma_mapping_ops per device but all the POWER IOMMUs use the same dma_mapping_error function. x86 IOMMUs use device argument.

2008-07-14IB/core: Add support for multicast loopback blockingRon Livne
This patch also adds a creation flag for QPs, IB_QP_CREATE_MULTICAST_BLOCK_LOOPBACK, which when set means that multicast sends from the QP to a group that the QP is attached to will not be looped back to the QP's receive queue. This can be used to save receive resources when a consumer does not want a local copy of multicast traffic; for example IPoIB must waste CPU time throwing away such local copies of multicast traffic. This patch also adds a device capability flag that shows whether a device supports this feature or not. Signed-off-by: Ron Livne <ronli@voltaire.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2008-07-14RDMA/core: Add iWARP protocol statistics attributes in sysfsSteve Wise
This patch adds a sysfs attribute group called "proto_stats" under /sys/class/infiniband/$device/ and populates this group with protocol statistics if they exist for a given device. Currently, only iWARP stats are defined, but the code is designed to allow InfiniBand protocol stats if they become available. These stats are per-device and more importantly -not- per port. Details: - Add union rdma_protocol_stats in ib_verbs.h. This union allows defining transport-specific stats. Currently only iwarp stats are defined. - Add struct iw_protocol_stats to define the current set of iwarp protocol stats. - Add new ib_device method called get_proto_stats() to return protocol statistics. - Add logic in core/sysfs.c to create iwarp protocol stats attributes if the device is an RNIC and has a get_proto_stats() method.

2008-07-14RDMA/core: Add memory management extensions supportSteve Wise
This patch adds support for the IB "base memory management extension" (BMME) and the equivalent iWARP operations (which the iWARP verbs mandates all devices must implement). The new operations are: - Allocate an ib_mr for use in fast register work requests. - Allocate/free a physical buffer lists for use in fast register work requests. This allows device drivers to allocate this memory as needed for use in posting send requests (eg via dma_alloc_coherent). - New send queue work requests: * send with remote invalidate * fast register memory region * local invalidate memory region * RDMA read with invalidate local memory region (iWARP only) Consumer interface details: - A new device capability flag IB_DEVICE_MEM_MGT_EXTENSIONS is added to indicate device support for these features. - New send work request opcodes IB_WR_FAST_REG_MR, IB_WR_LOCAL_INV, IB_WR_RDMA_READ_WITH_INV are added. - A new consumer API function, ib_alloc_mr() is added to allocate fast register memory regions. - New consumer API functions, ib_alloc_fast_reg_page_list() and ib_free_fast_reg_page_list() are added to allocate and free device-specific memory for fast registration page lists. - A new consumer API function, ib_update_fast_reg_key(), is added to allow the key portion of the R_Key and L_Key of a fast registration MR to be updated. Consumers call this if desired before posting a IB_WR_FAST_REG_MR work request. Consumers can use this as follows: - MR is allocated with ib_alloc_mr(). - Page list memory is allocated with ib_alloc_fast_reg_page_list(). - MR R_Key/L_Key "key" field is updated with ib_update_fast_reg_key(). - MR made VALID and bound to a specific page list via ib_post_send(IB_WR_FAST_REG_MR) - MR made INVALID via ib_post_send(IB_WR_LOCAL_INV), ib_post_send(IB_WR_RDMA_READ_WITH_INV) or an incoming send with invalidate operation. - MR is deallocated with ib_dereg_mr() - page lists dealloced via ib_free_fast_reg_page_list(). Applications can allocate a fast register MR once, and then can repeatedly bind the MR to different physical block lists (PBLs) via posting work requests to a send queue (SQ). For each outstanding MR-to-PBL binding in the SQ pipe, a fast_reg_page_list needs to be allocated (the fast_reg_page_list is owned by the low-level driver from the consumer posting a work request until the request completes). Thus pipelining can be achieved while still allowing device-specific page_list processing. The 32-bit fast register memory key/STag is composed of a 24-bit index and an 8-bit key. The application can change the key each time it fast registers thus allowing more control over the peer's use of the key/STag (ie it can effectively be changed each time the rkey is rebound to a page list).

2008-06-09IB/core: Remove IB_DEVICE_SEND_W_INV capability flagRoland Dreier
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.

2008-04-16IB/core: Add support for "send with invalidate" work requestsRoland Dreier
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.

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>
2007-05-06IB: Return "maybe missed event" hint from ib_req_notify_cq()Roland Dreier
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.

2007-05-06IB: Add CQ comp_vector supportMichael S. Tsirkin
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.

2007-02-04IB: Return qp pointer as part of ib_wcMichael S. Tsirkin
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. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@mellanox.co.il> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>

2006-06-17IB/uverbs: Don't serialize with ib_uverbs_idr_mutexRoland Dreier
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.

Have mthca's create_srq method return the actual capacity of the SRQ that gets created. Also update comments in <rdma/ib_verbs.h> to clarify that this is what is expected from ib_create_srq(). Signed-off-by: Dotan Barak <dotanb@mellanox.co.il> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2006-03-20IB: Add ib_modify_qp_is_ok() library functionRoland Dreier
The in-kernel mthca driver contains a table of which attributes are valid for each queue pair state transition. It turns out that both other IB drivers -- ipath and ehca -- which are being prepared for merging have copied this table, errors and all. To forestall this code duplication, move this table and the code to check parameters against it into a midlayer library function, ib_modify_qp_is_ok().

2006-03-20IB: Enable FMR pool user to set page sizeOr Gerlitz
This patch allows the consumer to set the page size of "pages" mapped by the pool FMRs, which is a feature already existing in the base verbs API. On the cosmetic side it changes ib_fmr_attr.page_size field to be named page_shift. Signed-off-by: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@voltaire.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2006-03-20IB: Allow userspace to set node descriptionRoland Dreier
Expose a writable "node_desc" sysfs attribute for InfiniBand devices. This allows userspace to update the node description with information such as the node's hostname, so that IB network management software can tie its view to the real world. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

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>
2006-01-10IB: Add node_guid to struct ib_deviceSean Hefty
Add a node_guid field to struct ib_device. It is the responsibility of the low-level driver to initialize this field before registering a device with the midlayer. Convert everyone to looking at this field instead of calling ib_query_device() when all they want is the node GUID, and remove the node_guid field from struct ib_device_attr.

2005-11-10[IB] Have cq_resize() method take an int, not int*Roland Dreier
Change the struct ib_device.resize_cq() method to take a plain integer that holds the new CQ size, rather than a pointer to an integer that it uses to return the new size. This makes the interface match the exported ib_resize_cq() signature, and allows the low-level driver to update the CQ size with proper locking if necessary. No in-tree drivers are exporting this method yet. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2005-10-25[IB] Fix MAD layer DMA mappings to avoid touching data buffer once mappedSean Hefty
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. Signed-off-by: Sean Hefty <sean.hefty@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
2005-10-17[IB] uverbs: Add a mask of device methods allowed for userspaceRoland Dreier
Give each device a uverbs_cmd_mask, so that a low-level driver can control which methods may be called on behalf of userspace. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>

2005-09-26[IB] uverbs: Close some exploitable racesRoland Dreier
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. 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>
