The SRC ("scalable RC") transport has been renamed to XRC ("extended
RC"), to avoid having an abbreviation that is so easily confused with an
abbreviation for "source." Update the HCA capability decoding output to
use the new name.Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier

Upcoming firmware introduces command interface revision 3, which
changes the way port capabilities are queried and set. Update the
driver to handle both the new and old command interfaces by adding a
new MLX4_FLAG_OLD_PORT_CMDS that it is set after querying the firmware
interface revision and then using the correct interface based on the
setting of the flag.Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier

New ConnectX firmware introduces FW command interface revision 2,
which requires that for each QP, a chunk of send queue entries (the
"headroom") is kept marked as invalid, so that the HCA doesn't get
confused if it prefetches entries that haven't been posted yet. Add
code to the driver to do this, and also update the user ABI so that
userspace can request that the prefetcher be turned off for userspace
QPs (we just leave the prefetcher on for all kernel QPs).Unfortunately, marking send queue entries this way is confuses older
firmware, so we change the driver to allow only FW command interface
revisions 2. This means that users will have to update their firmware
to work with the new driver, but the firmware is changing quickly and
the old firmware has lots of other bugs anyway, so this shouldn't be too
big a deal.Based on a patch from Jack Morgenstein .

HCA firmware with incompatible changes to the FW commmand interface is
coming soon. Add a check of the interface revision during
initialization and bail out if the firmware advertises a revision that
the driver doesn't know about. This will avoid strange failures later
if the driver goes on using the wrong interface revision.Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier

Add an InfiniBand driver for Mellanox ConnectX adapters. Because
these adapters can also be used as ethernet NICs and Fibre Channel
HBAs, the driver is split into two modules:mlx4_core: Handles low-level things like device initialization and
processing firmware commands. Also controls resource allocation
so that the InfiniBand, ethernet and FC functions can share a
device without stepping on each other.mlx4_ib: Handles InfiniBand-specific things; plugs into the
InfiniBand midlayer.Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier
