RDMA/core: Fix stale RoCE GIDs during netdev events at registration

2026-03-04T12:21:33+00:00

[ Upstream commit 9af0feae8016ba58ad7ff784a903404986b395b1 ] RoCE GID entries become stale when netdev properties change during the IB device registration window. This is reproducible with a udev rule that sets a MAC address when a VF netdev appears: ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="net", KERNEL=="eth4", \ RUN+="/sbin/ip link set eth4 address 88:22:33:44:55:66" After VF creation, show_gids displays GIDs derived from the original random MAC rather than the configured one. The root cause is a race between netdev event processing and device registration: CPU 0 (driver) CPU 1 (udev/workqueue) ────────────── ────────────────────── ib_register_device() ib_cache_setup_one() gid_table_setup_one() _gid_table_setup_one() ← GID table allocated rdma_roce_rescan_device() ← GIDs populated with OLD MAC ip link set eth4 addr NEW_MAC NETDEV_CHANGEADDR queued netdevice_event_work_handler() ib_enum_all_roce_netdevs() ← Iterates DEVICE_REGISTERED ← Device NOT marked yet, SKIP! enable_device_and_get() xa_set_mark(DEVICE_REGISTERED) ← Too late, event was lost The netdev event handler uses ib_enum_all_roce_netdevs() which only iterates devices marked DEVICE_REGISTERED. However, this mark is set late in the registration process, after the GID cache is already populated. Events arriving in this window are silently dropped. Fix this by introducing a new xarray mark DEVICE_GID_UPDATES that is set immediately after the GID table is allocated and initialized. Use the new mark in ib_enum_all_roce_netdevs() function to iterate devices instead of DEVICE_REGISTERED. This is safe because: - After _gid_table_setup_one(), all required structures exist (port_data, immutable, cache.gid) - The GID table mutex serializes concurrent access between the initial rescan and event handlers - Event handlers correctly update stale GIDs even when racing with rescan - The mark is cleared in ib_cache_cleanup_one() before teardown This also fixes similar races for IP address events (inetaddr_event, inet6addr_event) which use the same enumeration path.

RDMA/core: always drop device refcount in ib_del_sub_device_and_put()

[ Upstream commit fa3c411d21ebc26ffd175c7256c37cefa35020aa ] Since nldev_deldev() (introduced by commit 060c642b2ab8 ("RDMA/nldev: Add support to add/delete a sub IB device through netlink") grabs a reference using ib_device_get_by_index() before calling ib_del_sub_device_and_put(), we need to drop that reference before returning -EOPNOTSUPP error.

RDMA/nldev: Add support for RDMA monitoring

Introduce a new netlink command to allow rdma event monitoring. The rdma events supported now are IB device registration/unregistration and net device attachment/detachment. Example output of rdma monitor and the commands which trigger the events: $ rdma monitor $ rmmod mlx5_ib [UNREGISTER] dev 1 rocep8s0f1 [UNREGISTER] dev 0 rocep8s0f0 $ modprobe mlx5_ib [REGISTER] dev 2 mlx5_0 [NETDEV_ATTACH] dev 2 mlx5_0 port 1 netdev 4 eth2 [REGISTER] dev 3 mlx5_1 [NETDEV_ATTACH] dev 3 mlx5_1 port 1 netdev 5 eth3 $ devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:08:00.0 mode switchdev [UNREGISTER] dev 2 rocep8s0f0 [REGISTER] dev 4 mlx5_0 [NETDEV_ATTACH] dev 4 mlx5_0 port 30 netdev 4 eth2 $ echo 4 > /sys/class/net/eth2/device/sriov_numvfs [NETDEV_ATTACH] dev 4 rdmap8s0f0 port 2 netdev 7 eth4 [NETDEV_ATTACH] dev 4 rdmap8s0f0 port 3 netdev 8 eth5 [NETDEV_ATTACH] dev 4 rdmap8s0f0 port 4 netdev 9 eth6 [NETDEV_ATTACH] dev 4 rdmap8s0f0 port 5 netdev 10 eth7 [REGISTER] dev 5 mlx5_0 [NETDEV_ATTACH] dev 5 mlx5_0 port 1 netdev 11 eth8 [REGISTER] dev 6 mlx5_0 [NETDEV_ATTACH] dev 6 mlx5_0 port 1 netdev 12 eth9 [REGISTER] dev 7 mlx5_0 [NETDEV_ATTACH] dev 7 mlx5_0 port 1 netdev 13 eth10 [REGISTER] dev 8 mlx5_0 [NETDEV_ATTACH] dev 8 mlx5_0 port 1 netdev 14 eth11 $ echo 0 > /sys/class/net/eth2/device/sriov_numvfs [UNREGISTER] dev 5 rocep8s0f0v0 [UNREGISTER] dev 6 rocep8s0f0v1 [UNREGISTER] dev 7 rocep8s0f0v2 [UNREGISTER] dev 8 rocep8s0f0v3 [NETDEV_DETACH] dev 4 rdmap8s0f0 port 2 [NETDEV_DETACH] dev 4 rdmap8s0f0 port 3 [NETDEV_DETACH] dev 4 rdmap8s0f0 port 4 [NETDEV_DETACH] dev 4 rdmap8s0f0 port 5 Signed-off-by: Chiara Meiohas Signed-off-by: Michael Guralnik Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20240909173025.30422-7-michaelgur@nvidia.com Signed-off-by: Leon Romanovsky

RDMA/mlx5: Use IB set_netdev and get_netdev functions

2024-09-13T05:27:40+00:00

The IB layer provides a common interface to store and get net devices associated to an IB device port (ib_device_set_netdev() and ib_device_get_netdev()). Previously, mlx5_ib stored and managed the associated net devices internally. Replace internal net device management in mlx5_ib with ib_device_set_netdev() when attaching/detaching a net device and ib_device_get_netdev() when retrieving the net device. Export ib_device_get_netdev(). For mlx5 representors/PFs/VFs and lag creation we replace the netdev assignments with the IB set/get netdev functions. In active-backup mode lag the active slave net device is stored in the lag itself. To assure the net device stored in a lag bond IB device is the active slave we implement the following: - mlx5_core: when modifying the slave of a bond we send the internal driver event MLX5_DRIVER_EVENT_ACTIVE_BACKUP_LAG_CHANGE_LOWERSTATE. - mlx5_ib: when catching the event call ib_device_set_netdev() This patch also ensures the correct IB events are sent in switchdev lag. While at it, when in multiport eswitch mode, only a single IB device is created for all ports. The said IB device will receive all netdev events of its VFs once loaded, thus to avoid overwriting the mapping of PF IB device to PF netdev, ignore NETDEV_REGISTER events if the ib device has already been mapped to a netdev.

RDMA/device: Remove optimization in ib_device_get_netdev()

2024-09-13T05:27:40+00:00

The caller of ib_device_get_netdev() relies on its result to accurately match a given netdev with the ib device associated netdev. ib_device_get_netdev returns NULL when the IB device associated netdev is unregistering, preventing the caller of matching netdevs properly. Thus, remove this optimization and return the netdev even if it is undergoing unregistration, allowing matching by the caller. This change ensures proper netdev matching and reference count handling by the caller of ib_device_get_netdev/ib_device_set_netdev API.

RDMA: Fix netdev tracker in ib_device_set_netdev

2024-07-14T07:32:57+00:00

If a netdev has already been assigned, ib_device_set_netdev needs to release the reference on the older netdev but it is mistakenly being called for the new netdev. Fix it and in the process use netdev_put to be symmetrical with the netdev_hold.

RDMA/core: Support IB sub device with type "SMI"

2024-07-01T12:38:04+00:00

This patch adds 2 APIs, as well as driver operations to support adding and deleting an IB sub device, which provides part of functionalities of it's parent. A sub device has a type; for a sub device with type "SMI", it provides the smi capability through umad for its parent, meaning uverb is not supported. A sub device cannot live without a parent. So when a parent is released, all it's sub devices are released as well.
