When set_multicast_list() is called the multicast task is restarted
and the IPOIB_MCAST_STARTED bit is cleared. As a result for some
window of time, multicast packets are not transmitted nor queued but
rather dropped by ipoib_mcast_send(). These dropped packets are
painful in two cases:
- bonding fail-over which both calls set_multicast_list() on the new
active slave and sends Gratuitous ARP through that slave.
- IP_DROP_MEMBERSHIP code which both calls set_multicast_list() on the
device and issues IGMP leave.
In both these cases, depending on the scheduling of the IPoIB
multicast task, the packets would be dropped. As a result, in the
bonding case, the failover would not be detected by the peers until
their neighbour is renewed the neighbour (which takes a few tens of
seconds). In the IGMP case, the IP router doesn't get an IGMP leave
and would only learn on that from further probes on the group (also a
delay of at least a few tens of seconds).
Fix this by allowing transmission (or queuing) depending on the
IPOIB_FLAG_OPER_UP flag instead of the IPOIB_MCAST_STARTED flag.

An IPoIB subnet on an IB fabric that spans multiple IB subnets can't
use link-local scope in multicast GIDs. The existing routines that
map IP/IPv6 multicast addresses into IB link-level addresses hard-code
the scope to link-local, and they also leave the partition key field
uninitialised. This patch adds a parameter (the link-level broadcast
address) to the mapping routines, allowing them to initialise both the
scope and the P_Key appropriately, and fixes up the call sites.
The next step will be to add a way to configure the scope for an IPoIB
interface.

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.

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.

Now that low-level drivers handle the conversion from an absolute rate

The IB SA tracks multicast join/leave requests on a per port basis and
does not do any reference counting: if two users of the same port join
the same group, and one leaves that group, then the SA will remove the
port from the group even though there is one user who wants to stay a
member left. Therefore, in order to support multiple users of the
same multicast group from the same port, we need to perform reference
counting locally.
To do this, add an multicast submodule to ib_sa to perform reference
counting of multicast join/leave operations. Modify ib_ipoib (the
only in-kernel user of multicast) to use the new interface.

The following patch adds experimental support for IPoIB connected
mode, as defined by the draft from the IETF ipoib working group. The
idea is to increase performance by increasing the MTU from the maximum
of 2K (theoretically 4K) supported by IPoIB on top of UD. With this
code, I'm able to get 800MByte/sec or more with netperf without
options on a Mellanox 4x back-to-back DDR system.
Some notes on code:
1. SRQ is used for scalability to large cluster sizes
2. Only RC connections are used (UC does not support SRQ now)
3. Retry count is set to 0 since spec draft warns against retries
4. Each connection is used for data transfers in only 1 direction, so
each connection is either active(TX) or passive (RX). 2 sides that
want to communicate create 2 connections.
5. Each active (TX) connection has a separate CQ for send completions -
this keeps the code simple without CQ resize and other tricks
6. To detect stale passive side connections (where the remote side is
down), we keep an LRU list of passive connections (updated once per
second per connection) and destroy a connection after it has been
unused for several seconds. The LRU rule makes it possible to avoid
scanning connections that have recently been active.

RFC 4391 ("Transmission of IP over InfiniBand (IPoIB)") says:
If the IB multicast group does not already exist, one must be
created first with the IPoIB link MTU. The MGID MUST use the same
P_Key, Q_Key, SL, MTU, and HopLimit as those used in the
broadcast-GID. The rest of attributes SHOULD follow the values used
in the broadcast-GID as well.
However, the current IPoIB driver is only setting the attributes
required by the InfiniBand spec to create a multicast group, so in
particular the MTU and HopLimit are not being set. Add these
attributes when creating MCGs, and also set the Rate attribute, since
IPoIB pays attention to that attribute as well.

Various drivers use xmit_lock internally to synchronise with their
transmission routines. They do so without setting xmit_lock_owner.
This is fine as long as netpoll is not in use.
With netpoll it is possible for deadlocks to occur if xmit_lock_owner
isn't set. This is because if a printk occurs while xmit_lock is held
and xmit_lock_owner is not set can cause netpoll to attempt to take
xmit_lock recursively.
While it is possible to resolve this by getting netpoll to use
trylock, it is suboptimal because netpoll's sole objective is to
maximise the chance of getting the printk out on the wire. So
delaying or dropping the message is to be avoided as much as possible.
So the only alternative is to always set xmit_lock_owner. The
following patch does this by introducing the netif_tx_lock family of
functions that take care of setting/unsetting xmit_lock_owner.
I renamed xmit_lock to _xmit_lock to indicate that it should not be
used directly. I didn't provide irq versions of the netif_tx_lock
functions since xmit_lock is meant to be a BH-disabling lock.
This is pretty much a straight text substitution except for a small
bug fix in winbond. It currently uses
netif_stop_queue/spin_unlock_wait to stop transmission. This is
unsafe as an IRQ can potentially wake up the queue. So it is safer to
use netif_tx_disable.
The hamradio bits used spin_lock_irq but it is unnecessary as
xmit_lock must never be taken in an IRQ handler.

ipoib_mcast_stop_thread currently tests mcast->query and if it is
NULL, does not perform wait_for_completion on the mcast and frees the
mcast object directly.
However, since both operations are done without locking, it is
possible that ipoib_mcast_join_complete is in progress on this mcast
object and has set mcast->query to NULL already.
Solve this by:
- taking priv->lock before we change mcast->query in ipoib_mcast_join_complete,
and keeping it until we no longer need the mcast object
- taking priv->lock around mcast->query test in ipoib_mcast_stop_thread
