If path_rec_start() returns error, call path_free() only if the path
was newly-created. If we free an existing path whose valid flag was zero,
(but do not detach it from the list) we cause corruption of the
path list (of which it is a member), and get a kernel crash.
The simplest solution is to not free an existing path -- just leave it
in the list as-is (i.e., with its valid flag cleared).
Thanks to Yossi Etigin of Voltaire for identifying the problem flow
which caused the kernel crash.

After commit fe25c561 ("IPoIB: Don't enable NAPI when it's already
enabled"), if an interface is brought up but the corresponding P_Key
never appears, then ipoib_stop() will hang in napi_disable(), because
ipoib_open() returns before it does napi_enable().
Fix this by changing ipoib_open() to call napi_enable() even if the
P_Key isn't present.

Fix bonding failover in the case both peers failover and the
gratuitous ARP is lost. In that case, the sender side will create an
ipoib_neigh and issue a path request with the old GID first. When
skb->dst->neighbour->ha changes due to ARP refresh, this ipoib_neigh
will not be added to the path->list of the path of the new GID,
because the ipoib_neigh already exists. It will not have an AH
either, because of sender-side failover. Therefore, it will not get
an AH when the path is resolved.
The solution here is to compare GIDs in ipoib_start_xmit() even if
neigh->ah is invalid. Comparing with an uninitialized value of
neigh->dgid should be fine, since a spurious match is harmless (and
astronomically unlikely too).

Fix a crash in path_rec_completion() during an SM up/down loop. If
more than one path record request is issued, the first completion
releases path->done, allowing ipoib_flush_paths() to free the path,
and thus corrupting it for the second completion.
Commit ee1e2c82 ("IPoIB: Refresh paths instead of flushing them on SM
change events") added the field path->valid and changed the test "if
(!path)" to "if (!path || !path->valid)". This change made it
possible for a path with an outstanding query to pass the test and
issue another query on the same path. Having two queries on the same
path leads to a crash.

ipoib_flush_paths() can hang during an SM up/down loop: if
path_rec_start() fails (for instance, because there is no sm_ah), the
path is still added to the path list by neigh_add_path(). Then,
ipoib_flush_paths() will wait for path->done, but it will never
complete because the request was not issued at all. Fix this by
completing path->done if issuing the query fails.

If a P_Key is not present when an interface is created, ipoib_open()
will return after doing napi_enable(). ipoib_open() will be called
again from ipoib_pkey_poll() when the P_Key appears, after NAPI has
already been enabled, and try to enable it again. This triggers a
BUG_ON() in napi_enable().
Fix this by moving the call to napi_enable() to after the test for
P_Key presence.

-- v1 has a bug where the 'result' flag in ipoib_vlan_add may be used uninitialized
Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
Currently, IPoIB is an LLTX driver that uses its own IRQ-disabling
tx_lock. Not only do we want to get rid of LLTX, this actually causes
problems because of the skb_orphan() done with this tx_lock held: some
skb destructors expect to be run with interrupts enabled.
The simplest fix for this is to get rid of the driver-private tx_lock
and stop using LLTX. We kill off priv->tx_lock and use
netif_tx_lock[_bh]() instead; the patch to do this is a tiny bit
tricky because we need to update places that take priv->lock inside
the tx_lock to disable IRQs, rather than relying on tx_lock having
already disabled IRQs.
Also, there are a couple of places where we need to disable BHs to
make sure we have a consistent context to call netif_tx_lock() (since
we no longer can use _irqsave() variants), and we also have to change
ipoib_send_comp_handler() to call drain_tx_cq() through a timer rather
than directly, because ipoib_send_comp_handler() runs in interrupt
context and drain_tx_cq() must run in BH context so it can call
netif_tx_lock().

Commit ee1e2c82 ("IPoIB: Refresh paths instead of flushing them on SM
change events") changed how paths are flushed on an SM event. This
change introduces a problem if the path record query triggered by
fails, causing path->ah to become NULL. A later successful path query
will then trigger WARN_ON() in path_rec_completion(), and crash
because path->ah has already been freed, so the ipoib_put_ah() inside
the lock in path_rec_completion() may actually drop the last reference
(contrary to the comment that claims this is safe).
Fix this by updating path->ah and freeing old_ah only when the path
record query is successful. This prevents the neighbour AH and that
path AH from getting out of sync.

Taking rtnl_lock in ipoib_mcast_join_complete() causes a deadlock with
ipoib_stop(). We avoid it by scheduling the piece of code that takes
the lock on ipoib_workqueue instead of executing it directly. This
works because we only flush the ipoib_workqueue with the RTNL not held.
The deadlock happens because ipoib_stop() calls ipoib_ib_dev_down()
which calls ipoib_mcast_dev_flush(), which calls ipoib_mcast_free(),
which calls ipoib_mcast_leave(). The latter calls
ib_sa_free_multicast(), and this waits until the multicast completion
handler finishes. This handler is ipoib_mcast_join_complete(), which
waits for the rtnl_lock(), which was already taken by ipoib_stop().
This bug was introduced in commit a77a57a1 ("IPoIB: Fix deadlock on
RTNL in ipoib_stop()").

Commit c8c2afe3 ("IPoIB: Use rtnl lock/unlock when changing device
flags") added a call to rtnl_lock() in ipoib_mcast_join_task(), which
is run from the ipoib_workqueue. However, ipoib_stop() (which is run
inside rtnl_lock()) flushes this workqueue, which leads to a deadlock
if the join task is pending.
Fix this by simply not flushing the workqueue from ipoib_stop(). It
turns out that we really don't care about workqueue tasks running
during or after ipoib_stop(), as long as we make sure to flush the
workqueue before unregistering a netdev.

The patch tries to solve the problem of device going down and paths being
flushed on an SM change event. The method is to mark the paths as candidates for
refresh (by setting the new valid flag to 0), and wait for an ARP
probe a new path record query.
The solution requires a different and less intrusive handling of SM
change event. For that, the second argument of the flush function
changes its meaning from a boolean flag to a level. In most cases, SM
failover doesn't cause LID change so traffic won't stop. In the rare
cases of LID change, the remote host (the one that hadn't changed its
LID) will lose connectivity until paths are refreshed. This is no
worse than the current state. In fact, preventing the device from
going down saves packets that otherwise would be lost.

The connected mode implementation in the IPoIB driver has a large
overhead in the way SKBs are handled in the receive flow. It usually
allocates an SKB with as big as was used in the currently received SKB
and moves unused fragments from the old SKB to the new one. This
involves a loop on all the remaining fragments and incurs overhead on
the CPU. This patch, for small SKBs, allocates an SKB just large
enough to contain the received data and copies to it the data from the
received SKB. The newly allocated SKB is passed to the stack and the
old SKB is reposted.
When running netperf, UDP small messages, without this pach I get:
UDP UNIDIRECTIONAL SEND TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to

114688 10.00 1130489 115.71
With this patch I get both send and receive at ~315 mbps.
The reason that send performance actually slows down is as follows:
When using this patch, the overhead of the CPU for handling RX packets
is dramatically reduced. As a result, we do not experience RNR NAK
messages from the receiver which cause the connection to be closed and
reopened again; when the patch is not used, the receiver cannot handle
the packets fast enough so there is less time to post new buffers and
hence the mentioned RNR NACKs. So what happens is that the
application *thinks* it posted a certain number of packets for
transmission but these packets are flushed and do not really get
transmitted. Since the connection gets opened and closed many times,
each time netperf gets the CPU time that otherwise would have been
given to IPoIB to actually transmit the packets. This can be verified
when looking at the port counters -- the output of ifconfig and the
oputput of netperf (this is for the case without the patch):
tx packets
==========
port counter: 1,543,996
ifconfig: 1,581,426

qdisc_run() now tests for queue_stopped() before calling
__qdisc_run(), and the same check is done in every iteration of
__qdisc_run(), so another check is not required in the driver xmit.
This means that ipoib_start_xmit() no longer needs to test
netif_queue_stopped(); the test was added to fix earlier kernels,
where the networking stack did not guarantee that the xmit method of
an LLTX driver would not be called after the queue was stopped, but
current kernels do provide this guarantee.

Some HCAs (such as ehca2) support SRQ, but only support fewer than 16 SG
entries for SRQs. Currently IPoIB/CM implicitly assumes all HCAs will
support 16 SG entries for SRQs (to handle a 64K MTU with 4K pages). This
patch removes that restriction by limiting the maximum MTU in connected
mode to what the maximum number of SRQ SG entries allows.

Some IB adapters (notably IBM's eHCA) do not implement SRQs (shared
receive queues). The current IPoIB connected mode support only works
on devices that support SRQs.
Fix this by adding support for using the receive queue of each
connected mode receive QP. The disadvantage of this compared to using
an SRQ is that it means a full queue of receives must be posted for
each remote connected mode peer, which means that total memory usage
is potentially much higher than when using SRQs. To manage this, add
a new module parameter "max_nonsrq_conn_qp" that limits the number of
connections allowed per interface.
The rest of the changes are fairly straightforward: we use a table of
struct ipoib_cm_rx to hold all the active connections, and put the
table index of the connection in the high bits of receive WR IDs.
This is needed because we cannot rely on the struct ib_wc.qp field for
non-SRQ receive completions. Most of the rest of the changes just
test whether or not an SRQ is available, and post receives or find
received packets in the right place depending on the answer.
Cleaning up dead connections actually becomes simpler, because we do
not have to do the "last WQE reached" dance that is required to
destroy QPs attached to an SRQ. We just move the QP to the error
state and wait for all pending receives to be flushed.

If a port goes down, ipoib_ib_dev_down() is invoked -- which flushes
the mcasts (clearing priv->broadcast) and clearing the path record
cache. If ipoib_start_xmit() is then invoked (before the broadcast
group is rejoined), a kernel oops results from attempting to access
priv->broadcast, which is still unset.
Returning NULL from path_rec_create() if priv->broadcast is NULL is a
harmless way of bypassing the problem -- the offending packet is
simply discarded "without prejudice."

IPoIB uses a two layer neighboring scheme, such that for each struct neighbour
whose device is an ipoib one, there is a struct ipoib_neigh buddy which is
created on demand at the tx flow by an ipoib_neigh_alloc(skb->dst->neighbour)
call.
When using the bonding driver, neighbours are created by the net stack on behalf
of the bonding (master) device. On the tx flow the bonding code gets an skb such
that skb->dev points to the master device, it changes this skb to point on the
slave device and calls the slave hard_start_xmit function.
Under this scheme, ipoib_neigh_destructor assumption that for each struct
neighbour it gets, n->dev is an ipoib device and hence netdev_priv(n->dev)
can be casted to struct ipoib_dev_priv is buggy.
To fix it, this patch adds a dev field to struct ipoib_neigh which is used
instead of the struct neighbour dev one, when n->dev->flags has the
IFF_MASTER bit set.

Several devices have multiple independant RX queues per net
device, and some have a single interrupt doorbell for several
queues.
In either case, it's easier to support layouts like that if the
structure representing the poll is independant from the net
device itself.
The signature of the ->poll() call back goes from:
int foo_poll(struct net_device *dev, int *budget)
to
int foo_poll(struct napi_struct *napi, int budget)
The caller is returned the number of RX packets processed (or
the number of "NAPI credits" consumed if you want to get
abstract). The callee no longer messes around bumping
dev->quota, *budget, etc. because that is all handled in the
caller upon return.
The napi_struct is to be embedded in the device driver private data
structures.
Furthermore, it is the driver's responsibility to disable all NAPI
instances in it's ->stop() device close handler. Since the
napi_struct is privatized into the driver's private data structures,
only the driver knows how to get at all of the napi_struct instances
it may have per-device.

The kernel IB stack allows (through the RDMA CM) userspace
applications to join and use multicast groups from the IPoIB MGID
range. This allows multicast traffic to be handled directly from
userspace QPs, without going through the kernel stack, which gives
better performance for some applications.
However, to fully interoperate with IP multicast, such userspace
applications need to participate in IGMP reports and queries, or else
routers may not forward the multicast traffic to the system where the
application is running. The simplest way to do this is to share the
kernel IGMP implementation by using the IP_ADD_MEMBERSHIP option to
join multicast groups that are being handled directly in userspace.
However, in such cases, the actual multicast traffic should not also
be handled by the IPoIB interface, because that would burn resources
handling multicast packets that will just be discarded in the kernel.
To handle this, this patch adds lookup on the database used for IB
multicast group reference counting when IPoIB is joining multicast
groups, and if a multicast group is already handled by user space,
then the IPoIB kernel driver ignores the group. This is controlled by
a per-interface policy flag. When the flag is set, IPoIB will not
join and attach its QP to a multicast group which already has an entry
in the database; when the flag is cleared, IPoIB will behave as before
this change.
For each IPoIB interface, the /sys/class/net/$intf/umcast attribute
controls the policy flag. The default value is off/0.
