* IB/hfi1: Remove redundant sysfs irq affinity entryTadeusz Struk2016-11-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | The IRQ affinity entry is not needed after the irq notifier patch has been added to the hfi1 driver. The irq affinity settings for SDMA engine should be set using the standard /proc/irq/<N>/ interface.

* IB/hfi1: Fix locking scheme for affinity settingsTadeusz Struk2016-10-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Existing locking scheme in affinity.c file using the &node_affinity.lock spinlock is not very elegant. We acquire the lock to get hfi1_affinity_node entry, unlock, and then use the entry without the lock held. With more functions being added, which access and modify the entries, this can lead to race conditions. This patch makes this locking scheme more consistent. It changes the spinlock to mutex. Since all the code is executed in a user process context there is no need for a spinlock. This also allows to keep the lock not only while we look up for the node affinity entry, but over the whole section where the entry is being used.

* IB/hfi1: Refine user process affinity algorithmSebastian Sanchez2016-08-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When performing process affinity recommendations for MPI ranks, the current algorithm doesn't take into account multiple HFI units. Also, real cores and HT cores are not distinguished from one another. Therefore, all HT cores are recommended to be assigned first within the local NUMA node before recommending the assignments of cores in other NUMA nodes. It's ideal to assign all real cores across all NUMA nodes first, then all HT 1 cores, then all HT 2 cores, and so on to balance CPU workload. CPU cores in other NUMA nodes could be running interrupt handlers, and this is not taken into account. To balance the CPU workload for user processes, the following recommendation algorithm is used: For each user process that is opening a context on HFI Y: a) If all cores are assigned to user processes, start assignments all over from the first core b) Assign real cores first, then HT cores (First set of HT cores on all physical cores, then second set of HT cores, and, so on) in the following order: 1. Same NUMA node as HFI Y and not running an IRQ handler 2. Same NUMA node as HFI Y and running an IRQ handler 3. Different NUMA node to HFI Y and not running an IRQ handler 4. Different NUMA node to HFI Y and running an IRQ handler c) Mark core as assigned in the global affinity structure. As user processes are done, remove core assignments from global affinity structure. This implementation allows an arbitrary number of HT cores and provides support for multiple HFIs. This is being included in the kernel rather than user space due to the fact that user space has no way of knowing the CPU recommendations for contexts running as part of other jobs.

* IB/hfi1: Reserve and collapse CPU cores for contextsSebastian Sanchez2016-08-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Kernel receive queues oversubscribe CPU cores on multi-HFI systems. To prevent this, the kernel receive queues are separated onto different cores, and the SDMA engine interrupts are constrained to a lesser number of cores. hfi1s_on_numa_node*krcvqs is the number of CPU cores that are reserved for kernel receive queues for all HFIs. Each HFI initializes its kernel receive queues to one of the reserved CPU cores. If there ends up being 0 CPU cores leftover for SDMA engines, use the same CPU cores as receive contexts. In addition, general and control contexts are assigned to their own CPU core, however, both types of contexts tend to have low traffic. To save CPU cores, collapse general and control contexts to one CPU core for all HFI units. This change prevents SDMA engine interrupts from wrapping around general contexts.

* IB/hfi1: Add global structure for affinity assignmentsDennis Dalessandro2016-08-02
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When HFI units get initialized, they each use their own mask copy for affinity assignments. On a multi-HFI system, affinity assignments overbook CPU cores as each HFI doesn't have knowledge of affinity assignments for other HFI units. Therefore, some CPU cores are never used for interrupt handlers in systems with high number of CPU cores per NUMA node. For multi-HFI systems, SDMA engine interrupt assignments start all over from the first CPU in the local NUMA node after the first HFI initialization. This change allows assignments to continue where the last HFI unit left off. Add global structure for affinity assignments for multiple HFIs to share affinity mask.

* IB/hfi1: Move driver out of stagingDennis Dalessandro2016-05-26
The TODO list for the hfi1 driver was completed during 4.6. In addition other objections raised (which are far beyond what was in the TODO list) have been addressed as well. It is now time to remove the driver from staging and into the drivers/infiniband sub-tree.
