  • The RDMA CM currently infers the QP type from the port space selected
    by the user. In the future (eg with RDMA_PS_IB or XRC), there may not
    be a 1-1 correspondence between port space and QP type. For netlink
    export of RDMA CM state, we want to export the QP type to userspace,
    so it is cleaner to explicitly associate a QP type to an ID.

    Modify rdma_create_id() to allow the user to specify the QP type, and
    use it to make our selections of datagram versus connected mode.

  • Add a mutex_unlock missing on the error path. In each case, whenever the
    label out is reached from elsewhere in the function, mutex is not locked.

    The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:

    //

    expression E1;

    * mutex_lock(E1);

  • …it slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

    percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
    included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
    in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
    universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

    percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
    this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
    headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
    needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
    used as the basis of conversion.

    http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

    The script does the followings.

    * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
    only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
    gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

    * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
    blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
    to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
    core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
    alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
    doesn't seem to be any matching order.

    * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
    because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
    an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
    file.

    The conversion was done in the following steps.

    1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
    over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
    and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
    files.

    2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
    some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
    embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
    inclusions to around 150 files.

    3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
    from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

    4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
    e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
    APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

    5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
    editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
    files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
    inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
    wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
    slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
    necessary.

    6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

    7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
    were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
    distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
    more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
    build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

    * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
    * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
    * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
    * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
    * s390 SMP allmodconfig
    * alpha SMP allmodconfig
    * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

    8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
    a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

    Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
    6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
    If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
    headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
    the specific arch.

  • RDS's error messages when a connection goes down are a little
    extreme. A connection may go down, and it will be re-established,
    and everything is fine. This patch links these messages through
    rdsdebug(), instead of to printk directly.

  • We have a 64bit value that needs to be set atomically.
    This is easy and quick on all 64bit archs, and can also be done
    on x86/32 with set_64bit() (uses cmpxchg8b). However other
    32b archs don't have this.

    I actually changed this to the current state in preparation for
    mainline because the old way (using a spinlock on 32b) resulted in
    unsightly #ifdefs in the code. But obviously, being correct takes
    precedence.

  • This fixes a bug where a connection was unexpectedly
    not on *any* list while being destroyed. It also
    cleans up some code duplication and regularizes some
    function names.

    * Grab appropriate lock in conn_free() and explain in comment
    * Ensure via locking that a conn is never not on either
    a dev's list or the nodev list
    * Add rds_xx_remove_conn() to match rds_xx_add_conn()
    * Make rds_xx_add_conn() return void
    * Rename remove_{,nodev_}conns() to
    destroy_{,nodev_}conns() and unify their implementation
    in a helper function
    * Document lock ordering as nodev conn_lock before
    dev_conn_lock

  • Support for iWARP NICs is implemented as a separate
    RDS transport from IB. The code, however, is very
    similar to IB (it was forked, basically.) so let's keep
    it in one changeset.

    The reason for this duplicationis that despite its similarity
    to IB, there are a number of places where it has different
    semantics. iwarp zcopy support is still under development,
    and giving it its own sandbox ensures that IB code isn't
    disrupted while iwarp changes. Over time these transports
    will re-converge.
