These files are non modular, but need to export symbols using
the macros now living in export.h -- call out the include so
that things won't break when we remove the implicit presence
of module.h from everywhere.Signed-off-by: Paul Gortmaker

The trivial amount of memory saved isn't worth the cost of dealing with section
mismatches.Signed-off-by: Zach Brown

We were seeing very nasty bugs due to fundamental assumption the current code
makes about concurrent work struct processing. The code simpy isn't able to
handle concurrent connection shutdown work function execution today, for
example, which is very much possible once a multi-threaded krdsd was
introduced. The problem compounds as additional work structs are added to the
mix.krdsd is no longer perforance critical now that send and receive posting and
FMR flushing are done elsewhere, so the safest fix is to move back to the
single threaded krdsd that the current code was built around.Signed-off-by: Zach Brown

rds_send_xmit() was changed to hold an interrupt masking spinlock instead of a
mutex so that it could be called from the IB receive tasklet path. This broke
the TCP transport because its xmit method can block and masks and unmasks
interrupts.This patch serializes callers to rds_send_xmit() with a simple bit instead of
the current spinlock or previous mutex. This enables rds_send_xmit() to be
called from any context and to call functions which block. Getting rid of the
c_send_lock exposes the bare c_lock acquisitions which are changed to block
interrupts.A waitqueue is added so that rds_conn_shutdown() can wait for callers to leave
rds_send_xmit() before tearing down partial send state. This lets us get rid
of c_senders.rds_send_xmit() is changed to check the conn state after acquiring the
RDS_IN_XMIT bit to resolve races with the shutdown path. Previously both
worked with the conn state and then the lock in the same order, allowing them
to race and execute the paths concurrently.rds_send_reset() isn't racing with rds_send_xmit() now that rds_conn_shutdown()
properly ensures that rds_send_xmit() can't start once the conn state has been
changed. We can remove its previous use of the spinlock.Finally, c_send_generation is redundant. Callers can race to test the c_flags
bit by simply retrying instead of racing to test the c_send_generation atomic.Signed-off-by: Zach Brown

Now that rdma and tcp transports will be modularized,
we need to export a number of functions so they can call them.Signed-off-by: Andy Grover

While arguably the fact that the underlying transport needs a
connection to convey RDS's datagrame reliably is not important
to rds proper, the transports implemented so far (IB and TCP)
have both been connection-oriented, and so the connection
state machine-related code is in the common rds code.This patch also includes several work items, to handle connecting,
sending, receiving, and shutdown.Signed-off-by: Andy Grover
