Roland Dreier a96e4e2ffe IB/uverbs: New macro to set pointers to NULL if length is 0 in INIT_UDATA()
Trying to have a ternary operator to choose between NULL (or 0) and the
real pointer value in invocations leads to an impossible choice between
a sparse error about a literal 0 used as a NULL pointer, and a gcc
warning about "pointer/integer type mismatch in conditional expression."

Rather than clutter the source with more casts, move the ternary
operator into a new INIT_UDATA_BUF_OR_NULL() macro, which makes it
easier to use and simplifies its callers.

Yann Droneaud f21519b23c IB/core: extended command: an improved infrastructure for uverbs commands
Commit 400dbc9658 ("IB/core: Infrastructure for extensible uverbs
commands") added an infrastructure for extensible uverbs commands
while later commit 436f2ad05a ("IB/core: Export ib_create/destroy_flow
through uverbs") exported ib_create_flow()/ib_destroy_flow() functions
using this new infrastructure.

According to the commit 400dbc9658, the purpose of this
infrastructure is to support passing around provider (eg. hardware)
specific buffers when userspace issue commands to the kernel, so that
it would be possible to extend uverbs (eg. core) buffers independently
from the provider buffers.

But the new kernel command function prototypes were not modified to
take advantage of this extension. This issue was exposed by Roland
Dreier in a previous review[1].

So the following patch is an attempt to a revised extensible command
infrastructure.

This improved extensible command infrastructure distinguish between
core (eg. legacy)'s command/response buffers from provider
(eg. hardware)'s command/response buffers: each extended command
implementing function is given a struct ib_udata to hold core
(eg. uverbs) input and output buffers, and another struct ib_udata to
hold the hw (eg. provider) input and output buffers.

Having those buffers identified separately make it easier to increase
one buffer to support extension without having to add some code to
guess the exact size of each command/response parts: This should make
the extended functions more reliable.

Additionally, instead of relying on command identifier being greater
than IB_USER_VERBS_CMD_THRESHOLD, the proposed infrastructure rely on
unused bits in command field: on the 32 bits provided by command
field, only 6 bits are really needed to encode the identifier of
commands currently supported by the kernel. (Even using only 6 bits
leaves room for about 23 new commands).

So this patch makes use of some high order bits in command field to
store flags, leaving enough room for more command identifiers than one
will ever need (eg. 256).

The new flags are used to specify if the command should be processed
as an extended one or a legacy one. While designing the new command
format, care was taken to make usage of flags itself extensible.

Using high order bits of the commands field ensure that newer
libibverbs on older kernel will properly fail when trying to call
extended commands. On the other hand, older libibverbs on newer kernel
will never be able to issue calls to extended commands.

The extended command header includes the optional response pointer so
that output buffer length and output buffer pointer are located
together in the command, allowing proper parameters checking. This
should make implementing functions easier and safer.

Additionally the extended header ensure 64bits alignment, while making
all sizes multiple of 8 bytes, extending the maximum buffer size:

                             legacy      extended

   Maximum command buffer:  256KBytes   1024KBytes (512KBytes + 512KBytes)
  Maximum response buffer:  256KBytes   1024KBytes (512KBytes + 512KBytes)

For the purpose of doing proper buffer size accounting, the headers
size are no more taken in account in "in_words".

One of the odds of the current extensible infrastructure, reading
twice the "legacy" command header, is fixed by removing the "legacy"
command header from the extended command header: they are processed as
two different parts of the command: memory is read once and
information are not duplicated: it's making clear that's an extended
command scheme and not a different command scheme.

The proposed scheme will format input (command) and output (response)
buffers this way:

- command:

  legacy header +
  extended header +
  command data (core + hw):

    +----------------------------------------+
    | flags     |   00      00    |  command |
    |        in_words    |   out_words       |
    +----------------------------------------+
    |                 response               |
    |                 response               |
    | provider_in_words | provider_out_words |
    |                 padding                |
    +----------------------------------------+
    |                                        |
    .              <uverbs input>            .
    .              (in_words * 8)            .
    |                                        |
    +----------------------------------------+
    |                                        |
    .             <provider input>           .
    .          (provider_in_words * 8)       .
    |                                        |
    +----------------------------------------+

- response, if present:

    +----------------------------------------+
    |                                        |
    .          <uverbs output space>         .
    .             (out_words * 8)            .
    |                                        |
    +----------------------------------------+
    |                                        |
    .         <provider output space>        .
    .         (provider_out_words * 8)       .
    |                                        |
    +----------------------------------------+

The overall design is to ensure that the extensible infrastructure is
itself extensible while begin more reliable with more input and bound
checking.

Note:

The unused field in the extended header would be perfect candidate to
hold the command "comp_mask" (eg. bit field used to handle
compatibility).  This was suggested by Roland Dreier in a previous
review[2].  But "comp_mask" field is likely to be present in the uverb
input and/or provider input, likewise for the response, as noted by
Matan Barak[3], so it doesn't make sense to put "comp_mask" in the
header.

Yann Droneaud 2490f20be4 IB/core: Remove ib_uverbs_flow_spec structure from userspace
The structure holding any types of flow_spec is of no use to
userspace.  It would be wrong for userspace to do:

  struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec flow_spec;

  flow_spec.type = IB_FLOW_SPEC_TCP;
  flow_spec.size = sizeof(flow_spec);

Instead, userspace should use the dedicated flow_spec structure for
  - Ethernet : struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec_eth,
  - IPv4     : struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec_ipv4,
  - TCP/UDP  : struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec_tcp_udp.

In other words, struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec is a "virtual" data
structure that can only be use by the kernel as an alias to the other.

staging to reenable it if desired).

The feature will be enabled after proper cleanup for v3.13.

Roland Dreier f7c6a7b5d5 IB/uverbs: Export ib_umem_get()/ib_umem_release() to modules
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.

Roland Dreier 9ead190bfd IB/uverbs: Don't serialize with ib_uverbs_idr_mutex
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.

Surprisingly, these changes even shrink the object code:

Jack Morgenstein f4e401562c IB/uverbs: track multicast group membership for userspace QPs
uverbs needs to track which multicast groups is each qp
attached to, in order to properly detach when cleanup
is performed on device file close.

Roland Dreier 7162a3e0db [IB] uverbs: Avoid NULL pointer deref on CQ async event
Userspace CQs that have no completion event channel attached end up
with their cq_context set to NULL.  However, asynchronous events like
"CQ overrun" can still occur on such CQs, so add a uverbs_file member
to struct ib_ucq_object that we can follow to deliver these events.

Roland Dreier 70a30e16a8 [IB] uverbs: Fix device lifetime problems
Move ib_uverbs module to using cdev_alloc() and class_device_create()
so that we can handle device lifetime properly.  Now we can make sure
we keep all of our data structures around until the last way to reach
them is gone.

Roland Dreier 67cdb40ca4 [IB] uverbs: Implement more commands
Add kernel support for userspace calling poll CQ, request CQ
notification, post send, post receive, post SRQ receive, create AH and
destroy AH commands.  These commands allow us to support userspace
verbs for devices that can't perform these operations directly from
userspace (eg the PathScale HCA).

Roland Dreier 6b73597e70 [IB] uverbs: ABI-breaking fixes for userspace verbs
Introduce new userspace verbs ABI version 3.  This eliminates some
unneeded commands, and adds support for user-created completion
channels.  This cleans up problems with file leaks on error paths, and
also makes sure that file descriptors are always installed into the
correct process.

Roland Dreier 63c47c286d [IB] uverbs: Close some exploitable races
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.

Roland Dreier 63aaf64752 Make sure that userspace does not retrieve stale asynchronous or
completion events after destroying a CQ, QP or SRQ.  We do this by
sweeping the event lists before returning from a destroy calls, and
then return the number of events already reported before the destroy
call.  This allows userspace wait until it has processed all events
for an object returned from the kernel before it frees its context for
the object.

The ABI of the destroy CQ, destroy QP and destroy SRQ commands has to
change to return the event count, so bump the ABI version from 1 to 2.
The userspace libibverbs library has already been updated to handle
both the old and new ABI versions.

Roland Dreier a4d61e8480 [PATCH] IB: move include files to include/rdma
Move the InfiniBand headers from drivers/infiniband/include to include/rdma.
This allows InfiniBand-using code to live elsewhere, and lets us remove the

Roland Dreier f520ba5aa4 [PATCH] IB: userspace SRQ support
Add SRQ support to userspace verbs module.  This adds several commands
and associated structures, but it's OK to do this without bumping the
ABI version because the commands are added at the end of the list so
they don't change the existing numbering.  There are two cases to
worry about:

1. New kernel, old userspace.  This is OK because old userspace simply
   won't try to use the new SRQ commands.  None of the old commands are
   changed.

2. Old kernel, new userspace.  This works perfectly as long as
   userspace doesn't try to use SRQ commands.  If userspace tries to
   use SRQ commands, it will get EINVAL, which is perfectly
   reasonable: the kernel doesn't support SRQs, so we couldn't do any
   better.
