When running ibv_devinfo, the active_mtu returned is garbage. This is
due to the field not being populated in the query_port function in the
driver. The patch below populates the active_mtu field with a MTU of
2k. It also zeros the struct, so that any new additions to it will
return 0.

Running 'ifconfig up' on the cxgb3 interface with iw_cxgb3 loaded
causes a deadlock. The rtnl lock is already held in this path. The
function fw_supports_fastreg() was introduced in 2.6.27 to
conditionally set the IB_DEVICE_MEM_MGT_EXTENSIONS bit iff the
firmware was at 7.0 or greater, and this function also acquires the
rtnl lock and which thus causes a deadlock. Further, if iw_cxgb3 is
loaded _after_ the nic interface is brought up, then the deadlock does
not occur and therefore fw_supports_fastreg() does need to grab the
rtnl lock in that path.
It turns out this code is all useless anyway. The low level driver
will NOT allow the open if the firmware isn't 7.0, so iw_cxgb3 can
always set the MEM_MGT_EXTENSIONS bit. Simplify...

Handling the zero STag in receive work request requires some extra
logic in the driver:
- Only set the QP_PRIV bit for kernel mode QPs.
- Add a zero STag build function for recv wrs. The uP needs a PBL
allocated and passed down in the recv WR so it can construct a HW
PBL for the zero STag S/G entries. Note: we need to place a few
restrictions on zero STag usage because of this:
1) all SGEs in a recv WR must either be zero STag or not. No mixing.
2) an individual SGE length cannot exceed 128MB for a zero-stag SGE.
This should be OK since it's not really practical to allocate
such a large chunk of pinned contiguous DMA mapped memory.
- Add an optimized non-zero-STag recv wr format for kernel users.
This is needed to optimize both zero and non-zero STag cracking in
the recv path for kernel users.
- Remove the iwch_ prefix from the static build functions.
- Bump required FW version.

The change to iwch_provider.c in commit f4e91eb4 ("IB: convert struct
class_device to struct device") undid the fix done in commit 7f049f2f
("RDMA/cxgb3: Hold rtnl_lock() around ethtool get_drvinfo call"). It
removed the calls to rtnl_lock() that serialized the iw_cxgb3 ethtool
ops calls into the cxgb3 driver. This locking is needed to avoid
messing up the internal state of the cxgb3 driver.

Currently, iw_cxgb3 is severely limited on the amount of userspace
memory that can be registered in in a single memory region, which
causes big problems for applications that expect to be able to
register 100s of MB.
The problem is that the driver uses a single kmalloc()ed buffer to
hold the physical buffer list (PBL) for the entire memory region
during registration, which means that 8 bytes of contiguous memory are
required for each page of memory being registered. For example, a 64
MB registration will require 128 KB of contiguous memory with 4 KB
pages, and it unlikely that such an allocation will succeed on a busy
system.
This is purely a driver problem: the temporary page list buffer is not
needed by the hardware, so we can fix this by writing the PBL to the
hardware in page-sized chunks rather than all at once. We do this by
splitting the memory registration operation up into several steps:
- Allocate PBL space in adapter memory for the full registration
- Copy PBL to adapter memory in chunks
- Allocate STag and enable memory region
This also allows several other cleanups to the __cxio_tpt_op()
interface and related parts of the driver.
This change leaves the reregister memory region and memory window
operations broken, but they already didn't work due to other
longstanding bugs, so fixing them will be left to a later patch.

Current iw_cxgb3 code adds PBL memory to the driver's gen_pool in 2 MB
chunks. This limits the largest single allocation that can be done to
the same size, which means that with 4 KB pages, each of which takes 8
bytes of PBL memory, the largest memory region that can be allocated
is 1 GB (256K PBL entries * 4 KB/entry).
Remove this limit by adding all the PBL memory in a single gen_pool
chunk, if possible. Add code that falls back to smaller chunks if
gen_pool_add() fails, which can happen if there is not sufficient
contiguous lowmem for the internal gen_pool bitmap.

Open MPI, Intel MPI and other applications don't respect the iWARP
requirement that the client (active) side of the connection send the
first RDMA message. This class of application connection setup is
called peer-to-peer. Typically once the connection is setup, _both_
sides want to send data.
This patch enables supporting peer-to-peer over the chelsio RNIC by
enforcing this iWARP requirement in the driver itself as part of RDMA
connection setup.
Connection setup is extended, when the peer2peer module option is 1,
such that the MPA initiator will send a 0B Read (the RTR) just after
connection setup. The MPA responder will suspend SQ processing until
the RTR message is received and reply-to.
In the longer term, this will be handled in a standardized way by
enhancing the MPA negotiation so peers can indicate whether they
want/need the RTR and what type of RTR (0B read, 0B write, or 0B send)
should be sent. This will be done by standardizing a few bits of the
private data in order to negotiate all this. However this patch
enables peer-to-peer applications now and allows most of the required
firmware and driver changes to be done and tested now.
Design:
- Add a module option, peer2peer, to enable this mode.
- New firmware support for peer-to-peer mode:
- a new bit in the rdma_init WR to tell it to do peer-2-peer
and what form of RTR message to send or expect.
- process _all_ preposted recvs before moving the connection
into rdma mode.
- passive side: defer completing the rdma_init WR until all
pre-posted recvs are processed. Suspend SQ processing until
the RTR is received.
- active side: expect and process the 0B read WR on offload TX
queue. Defer completing the rdma_init WR until all
pre-posted recvs are processed. Suspend SQ processing until
the 0B read WR is processed from the offload TX queue.
- If peer2peer is set, driver posts 0B read request on offload TX
queue just after posting the rdma_init WR to the offload TX queue.
- Add CQ poll logic to ignore unsolicitied read responses.

Open MPI and other stress testing exposed a few bad bugs in handling
aborts in the middle of a normal close. Fix these by:
- serializing abort reply and peer abort processing with disconnect
processing
- warning (and ignoring) if ep timer is stopped when it wasn't running
- cleaning up disconnect path to correctly deal with aborting and
dead endpoints
- in iwch_modify_qp(), taking a ref on the ep before releasing the qp
lock if iwch_ep_disconnect() will be called. The ref is dropped
after calling disconnect.

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>.

Because of a typo in iwch_accept_cr(), the cxgb3 connection handling
code programs the hardware IRD (incoming RDMA read queue depth) with
the value that is passed in for the ORD (outgoing RDMA read queue
depth). In particular this means that if an application passes in IRD
> 0 and ORD = 0 (which is a completely sane and valid thing to do for
an app that expects only incoming RDMA read requests), then the
hardware will end up programmed with IRD = 0 and the app will fail in
a mysterious way.
Fix this by using "ep->ird" instead of "ep->ord" in the intended place.

This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe. This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables. The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl
were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.
vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.
So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces. The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace. This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.
For now the ifindex generator is left global.
Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.
At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change. Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.
