2017-07-29net/smc: synchronize buffer usage with deviceUrsula Braun
Usage of send buffer "sndbuf" is synced (a) before filling sndbuf for cpu access (b) after filling sndbuf for device access Usage of receive buffer "RMB" is synced (a) before reading RMB content for cpu access (b) after reading RMB content for device access Signed-off-by: Ursula Braun <ubraun@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2017-07-29net/smc: common functions for RMBs and send buffersUrsula Braun
Creation and deletion of SMC receive and send buffers shares a high amount of common code . This patch introduces common functions to get rid of duplicate code. Signed-off-by: Ursula Braun <ubraun@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2017-07-29net/smc: introduce sg-logic for send buffersUrsula Braun
SMC send buffers are processed the same way as RMBs. Since RMBs have been converted to sg-logic, do the same for send buffers. Signed-off-by: Ursula Braun <ubraun@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2017-07-29net/smc: register RMB-related memory regionUrsula Braun
A memory region created for a new RMB must be registered explicitly, before the peer can make use of it for remote DMA transfer. Signed-off-by: Ursula Braun <ubraun@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2017-07-29net/smc: use separate memory regions for RMBsUrsula Braun
SMC currently uses the unsafe_global_rkey of the protection domain, which exposes all memory for remote reads and writes once a connection is established. This patch introduces separate memory regions with separate rkeys for every RMB. Now the unsafe_global_rkey of the protection domain is no longer needed.

2017-07-29net/smc: introduce sg-logic for RMBsUrsula Braun
The follow-on patch makes use of ib_map_mr_sg() when introducing separate memory regions for RMBs. This function is based on scatterlists; thus this patch introduces scatterlists for RMBs. Signed-off-by: Ursula Braun <ubraun@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2017-05-16smc: switch to usage of IB_PD_UNSAFE_GLOBAL_RKEYUrsula Braun
Currently, SMC enables remote access to physical memory when a user has successfully configured and established an SMC-connection until ten minutes after the last SMC connection is closed. Because this is considered a security risk, drivers are supposed to use IB_PD_UNSAFE_GLOBAL_RKEY in such a case. This patch changes the current SMC code to use IB_PD_UNSAFE_GLOBAL_RKEY. This improves user awareness, but does not remove the security risk itself. Signed-off-by: Ursula Braun <ubraun@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2017-01-09smc: initialize IB transport incl. PD, MR, QP, CQ, event, WRUrsula Braun
Prepare the link for RDMA transport: Create a queue pair (QP) and move it into the state Ready-To-Receive (RTR). Signed-off-by: Ursula Braun <ubraun@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2017-01-09smc: work request (WR) base for use by LLC and CDCUrsula Braun
The base containers for RDMA transport are work requests and completion queue entries processed through Infiniband verbs: * allocate and initialize these areas * map these areas to DMA * implement the basic communication consisting of work request posting and receival of completion queue events Signed-off-by: Ursula Braun <ubraun@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2017-01-09smc: remote memory buffers (RMBs)Ursula Braun
* allocate data RMB memory for sending and receiving * size depends on the maximum socket send and receive buffers * allocated RMBs are kept during life time of the owning link group * map the allocated RMBs to DMA Signed-off-by: Ursula Braun <ubraun@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2017-01-09smc: connection and link group creationUrsula Braun
