Roland Dreier 0d89fe2c0c IB/mthca: Fix and simplify page size calculation in mthca_reg_phys_mr()
In mthca_reg_phys_mr(), we calculate the page size for the HCA
hardware to use to map the buffer list passed in by the consumer.
For example, if the consumer passes in

    [0] addr 0x1000, size 0x1000
    [1] addr 0x2000, size 0x1000

then the algorithm would come up with a page size of 0x2000 and a list
of two pages, at 0x0000 and 0x2000.  Usually, this would work fine
since the memory region would start at an offset of 0x1000 and have a
length of 0x2000.

However, the old code did not take into account the alignment of the
IO virtual address passed in.  For example, if the consumer passed in
a virtual address of 0x6000 for the above, then the offset of 0x1000
would not be used correctly because the page mask of 0x1fff would
result in an offset of 0.

We can fix this quite neatly by making sure that the page shift we use
is no bigger than the first bit where the start of the first buffer
and the IO virtual address differ.  Also, we can further simplify the
code by removing the special case for a single buffer by noticing that
it doesn't matter if we use a page size that is too big.  This allows
the loop to compute the page shift to be replaced with __ffs().

Thanks to Bryan S Rosenburg <rosnbrg@us.ibm.com> for pointing out the
original bug and suggesting several ways to improve this patch.

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.

Michael S. Tsirkin f4fd0b224d IB: Add CQ comp_vector support
Add a num_comp_vectors member to struct ib_device and extend
ib_create_cq() to pass in a comp_vector parameter -- this parallels
the userspace libibverbs API.  Update all hardware drivers to set
num_comp_vectors to 1 and have all ULPs pass 0 for the comp_vector
value.  Pass the value of num_comp_vectors to userspace rather than
hard-coding a value of 1.

We want multiple CQ event vector support (via MSI-X or similar for
adapters that can generate multiple interrupts), but it's not clear
how many vectors we want, or how we want to deal with policy issues
such as how to decide which vector to use or how to set up interrupt
affinity.  This patch is useful for experimenting, since no core
changes will be necessary when updating a driver to support multiple
vectors, and we know that we want to make at least these changes
anyway.

David Howells f0d1b0b30d [PATCH] LOG2: Implement a general integer log2 facility in the kernel
This facility provides three entry points:

	ilog2()		Log base 2 of unsigned long
	ilog2_u32()	Log base 2 of u32
	ilog2_u64()	Log base 2 of u64

These facilities can either be used inside functions on dynamic data:

	int do_something(long q)
	{
		...;
		y = ilog2(x)
		...;
	}

Or can be used to statically initialise global variables with constant values:

	unsigned n = ilog2(27);

When performing static initialisation, the compiler will report "error:
initializer element is not constant" if asked to take a log of zero or of
something not reducible to a constant.  They treat negative numbers as
unsigned.

When not dealing with a constant, they fall back to using fls() which permits
them to use arch-specific log calculation instructions - such as BSR on
x86/x86_64 or SCAN on FRV - if available.

Jack Morgenstein 59fef3b1e9 IB/mthca: Fix max_srq_sge returned by ib_query_device for Tavor devices
The driver allocates SRQ WQEs size with a power of 2 size both for
Tavor and for memfree. For Tavor, however, the hardware only requires
the WQE size to be a multiple of 16, not a power of 2, and the max
number of scatter-gather allowed is reported accordingly by the
firmware (and this is the value currently returned by
ib_query_device() and ibv_query_device()).

If the max number of scatter/gather entries reported by the FW is used
when creating an SRQ, the creation will fail for Tavor, since the
required WQE size will be increased to the next power of 2, which
turns out to be larger than the device permitted max WQE size (which
is not a power of 2).

This patch reduces the reported SRQ max wqe size so that it can be used
successfully in creating an SRQ on Tavor HCAs.

Roland Dreier 53b8b3ffd5 [PATCH] IB uverbs: add mthca mmap support
Add support for mmap() method to mthca, so that userspace can get access to
doorbell registers.  This allows userspace to get direct access to the HCA for
data path operations.

Each userspace context gets its own copy of the doorbell registers and is only
allowed to use resources that the kernel has given it access to.  In other
words, this is safe.
