Finally, we need to include <linux/sched.h> directly to get the declaration of restart_syscall() (which used to be included implicitly through <linux/inet_lro.h>).

* IPoIB: Clear ipoib_neigh.dgid in ipoib_neigh_alloc()David J. Wilder2009-12-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | IPoIB can miss a change in destination GID under some conditions. The problem is caused when ipoib_neigh->dgid contains a stale address. The fix is to set ipoib_neigh->dgid to zero in ipoib_neigh_alloc(). This can happen when a system using bonding on its IPoIB interfaces has switched its active interface from interface A to B and back to A. The system that fails over will not correctly processes the 2nd address change, as described below. When an address has changed neighbor->ha is updated with the new address. Each neighbor has an associated ipoib_neigh. ipoib_neigh->dgid also holds a copy of the remote node's hardware address. When an address changes neighbor->ha is updated by the network layer (arp code) with the new address. IPoIB detects this change in ipoib_start_xmit() by comparing neighbor->ha with ipoib_neigh->dgid. The bug is that ipoib_neigh->dgid may already contain the new address (A) thus the change from B to A is missed by ipoib. Here is the sequence of events: ipoib_neigh->dgid = A and neighbor->ha = A The address is switched to B (the first switch) neighbor->ha = B The change is seen in ipoib_start_xmit() -- neighbor->ha != ipoib_neigh->dgid so ipoib_neigh is released, and a new one is allocated. The allocator may return the same chunk of memory that was just released, therefore ipoib_neigh->dgid still contains A at this point. ipoib_neigh->dgid should be updated in neigh_add_path(), but if the following conditions are true dgid is not updated: 1) __path_find() returns a path 2) path->ah is NULL The remote system now switches from address B to A, neighbor->ha is updated to A. Now we have again : ipoib_neigh->dgid = A and neighbor->ha = A Since the addresses are the same ipoib won't process the change in address. Fix this by zeroing out the dgid field when allocating a new struct ipoib_neigh. Signed-off-by: David Wilder <dwilder@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
* IPoIB: Drop priv->lock before calling ipoib_send()Roland Dreier2009-09-05
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | IPoIB currently must use irqsave locking for priv->lock, since it is taken from interrupt context in one path. However, ipoib_send() does skb_orphan(), and the network stack locking is not IRQ-safe. Therefore we need to make sure we don't hold priv->lock when calling ipoib_send() to avoid lockdep warnings (the code was almost certainly safe in practice, since the only code path that takes priv->lock from interrupt context would never call into the network stack).

* IPoIB: Disable NAPI while CQ is being drainedYossi Etigin2009-04-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If NAPI is enabled while IPoIB's CQ is being drained, it creates a race on priv->ibwc between ipoib_poll() and ipoib_drain_cq(), leading to memory corruption. The solution is to enable/disable NAPI in ipoib_ib_dev_{open/stop}() instead of in ipoib_{open/stop}(), and sync NAPI on the INITIALIZED flag instead on the ADMIN_UP flag. This way NAPI will be disabled when ipoib_drain_cq() is called. This fixes <https://bugs.openfabrics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1587>.

If we free an existing path whose valid flag was zero, (but do not detach it from the list) we cause corruption of the path list (of which it is a member), and get a kernel crash.

* IPoIB: Fix loss of connectivity after bonding failover on both sidesYossi Etigin2009-01-09
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix bonding failover in the case both peers failover and the gratuitous ARP is lost. In that case, the sender side will create an ipoib_neigh and issue a path request with the old GID first. When skb->dst->neighbour->ha changes due to ARP refresh, this ipoib_neigh will not be added to the path->list of the path of the new GID, because the ipoib_neigh already exists. It will not have an AH either, because of sender-side failover. Therefore, it will not get an AH when the path is resolved. The solution here is to compare GIDs in ipoib_start_xmit() even if neigh->ah is invalid. Comparing with an uninitialized value of neigh->dgid should be fine, since a spurious match is harmless (and astronomically unlikely too).

* IPoIB: Use netif_tx_lock() and get rid of private tx_lock, LLTXRoland Dreier2008-09-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, IPoIB is an LLTX driver that uses its own IRQ-disabling tx_lock. Not only do we want to get rid of LLTX, this actually causes problems because of the skb_orphan() done with this tx_lock held: some skb destructors expect to be run with interrupts enabled. The simplest fix for this is to get rid of the driver-private tx_lock and stop using LLTX. We kill off priv->tx_lock and use netif_tx_lock[_bh]() instead; the patch to do this is a tiny bit tricky because we need to update places that take priv->lock inside the tx_lock to disable IRQs, rather than relying on tx_lock having already disabled IRQs. Also, there are a couple of places where we need to disable BHs to make sure we have a consistent context to call netif_tx_lock() (since we no longer can use _irqsave() variants), and we also have to change ipoib_send_comp_handler() to call drain_tx_cq() through a timer rather than directly, because ipoib_send_comp_handler() runs in interrupt context and drain_tx_cq() must run in BH context so it can call netif_tx_lock().

* IPoIB: Fix crash when path record fails after path flushRoland Dreier2008-09-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit ee1e2c82 ("IPoIB: Refresh paths instead of flushing them on SM change events") changed how paths are flushed on an SM event. This change introduces a problem if the path record query triggered by fails, causing path->ah to become NULL. A later successful path query will then trigger WARN_ON() in path_rec_completion(), and crash because path->ah has already been freed, so the ipoib_put_ah() inside the lock in path_rec_completion() may actually drop the last reference (contrary to the comment that claims this is safe). Fix this by updating path->ah and freeing old_ah only when the path record query is successful. This prevents the neighbour AH and that path AH from getting out of sync.

* IPoIB: Fix deadlock on RTNL between bcast join comp and ipoib_stop()Yossi Etigin2008-09-16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Taking rtnl_lock in ipoib_mcast_join_complete() causes a deadlock with ipoib_stop(). We avoid it by scheduling the piece of code that takes the lock on ipoib_workqueue instead of executing it directly. This works because we only flush the ipoib_workqueue with the RTNL not held. The deadlock happens because ipoib_stop() calls ipoib_ib_dev_down() which calls ipoib_mcast_dev_flush(), which calls ipoib_mcast_free(), which calls ipoib_mcast_leave(). The latter calls ib_sa_free_multicast(), and this waits until the multicast completion handler finishes. This handler is ipoib_mcast_join_complete(), which waits for the rtnl_lock(), which was already taken by ipoib_stop(). This bug was introduced in commit a77a57a1 ("IPoIB: Fix deadlock on RTNL in ipoib_stop()"). Signed-off-by: Yossi Etigin <yosefe@voltaire.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>

However, ipoib_stop() (which is run inside rtnl_lock()) flushes this workqueue, which leads to a deadlock if the join task is pending. Fix this by simply not flushing the workqueue from ipoib_stop(). It turns out that we really don't care about workqueue tasks running during or after ipoib_stop(), as long as we make sure to flush the workqueue before unregistering a netdev.

* IPoIB: Refresh paths instead of flushing them on SM change eventsMoni Shoua2008-07-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch tries to solve the problem of device going down and paths being flushed on an SM change event. The method is to mark the paths as candidates for refresh (by setting the new valid flag to 0), and wait for an ARP probe a new path record query. The solution requires a different and less intrusive handling of SM change event. For that, the second argument of the flush function changes its meaning from a boolean flag to a level. In most cases, SM failover doesn't cause LID change so traffic won't stop. In the rare cases of LID change, the remote host (the one that hadn't changed its LID) will lose connectivity until paths are refreshed. This is no worse than the current state. In fact, preventing the device from going down saves packets that otherwise would be lost.

* IPoIB: Copy small received SKBs in connected modeEli Cohen2008-07-15
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The connected mode implementation in the IPoIB driver has a large overhead in the way SKBs are handled in the receive flow. It usually allocates an SKB with as big as was used in the currently received SKB and moves unused fragments from the old SKB to the new one. This involves a loop on all the remaining fragments and incurs overhead on the CPU. This patch, for small SKBs, allocates an SKB just large enough to contain the received data and copies to it the data from the received SKB. The newly allocated SKB is passed to the stack and the old SKB is reposted. When running netperf, UDP small messages, without this pach I get: UDP UNIDIRECTIONAL SEND TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to 14.4.3.178 (14.4.3.178) port 0 AF_INET Socket Message Elapsed Messages Size Size Time Okay Errors Throughput bytes bytes secs # # 10^6bits/sec 114688 128 10.00 5142034 0 526.31 114688 10.00 1130489 115.71 With this patch I get both send and receive at ~315 mbps. The reason that send performance actually slows down is as follows: When using this patch, the overhead of the CPU for handling RX packets is dramatically reduced. As a result, we do not experience RNR NAK messages from the receiver which cause the connection to be closed and reopened again; when the patch is not used, the receiver cannot handle the packets fast enough so there is less time to post new buffers and hence the mentioned RNR NACKs. So what happens is that the application *thinks* it posted a certain number of packets for transmission but these packets are flushed and do not really get transmitted. Since the connection gets opened and closed many times, each time netperf gets the CPU time that otherwise would have been given to IPoIB to actually transmit the packets. This can be verified when looking at the port counters -- the output of ifconfig and the oputput of netperf (this is for the case without the patch): tx packets ========== port counter: 1,543,996 ifconfig: 1,581,426 netperf: 5,142,034 rx packets ========== netperf 1,1304,089 Signed-off-by: Eli Cohen <eli@mellanox.co.il>

This patch farther reduces overhead by not calling poll CQ for every posted send WR -- it does polls only when there 16 or more outstanding work requests.

* IPoIB: Handle 4K IB MTU for UD (datagram) modeShirley Ma2008-04-23
| | | | | | | | | | | This patch enables IPoIB to use 4K UD messages (when the underlying device and fabrics support a 4K MTU) by using two scatter buffers when PAGE_SIZE is less than or equal to thhe HCA IB MTU size. The first buffer is for IPoIB header + GRH header, and the second buffer is the IPoIB payload, which is 4K-4.

* IPoIB: Allocate priv->tx_ring with vmalloc()Roland Dreier2008-03-12
| | | | | | | | | | | Commit 7143740d ("IPoIB: Add send gather support") made struct ipoib_tx_buf significantly larger, since the mapping member changed from a single u64 to an array with MAX_SKB_FRAGS + 1 entries. This means that allocating tx_rings with kzalloc() may fail because there is not enough contiguous memory for the new, much bigger size. Fix this regression by allocating the rings with vmalloc() instead. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
* IPoIB: Add high DMA feature flagEli Cohen2008-02-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | All current InfiniBand devices can handle all DMA addresses, and it's hard to imagine anyone would be silly enough to build a new device that couldn't. Therefore, enable the NETIF_F_HIGHDMA feature for IPoIB. This has no effect for no, but is needed when we enable gather/scatter support and checksum stateless offloads.

* IPoIB: Handle bonding failover race for connected neighbours tooOr Gerlitz2008-02-04
| | | | | | | | | | | | Move up the code that checks for a situation where the remote GID stored in the ipoib_neigh is different than the one present in the neighbour (handle gratuitous ARP) or that a bonding fail over has happened but the neighbour still has a pointer to an ipoib_neigh created by a different device than the current slave. This will cause the driver to apply the check also for connected mode neighbours. Signed-off-by: Or Gerlitz <ogerlitz@voltaire.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
* IPoIB: Remove redundant check of netif_queue_stopped() in xmit handlerKrishna Kumar2008-01-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | qdisc_run() now tests for queue_stopped() before calling __qdisc_run(), and the same check is done in every iteration of __qdisc_run(), so another check is not required in the driver xmit. This means that ipoib_start_xmit() no longer needs to test netif_queue_stopped(); the test was added to fix earlier kernels, where the networking stack did not guarantee that the xmit method of an LLTX driver would not be called after the queue was stopped, but current kernels do provide this guarantee. To validate, I put a debug in the TX_BUSY path which never hit with 64 threads running overnight exercising this code a few 100 million times.

* IPoIB/CM: Enable SRQ support on HCAs that support fewer than 16 SG entriesPradeep Satyanarayana2008-01-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Some HCAs (such as ehca2) support SRQ, but only support fewer than 16 SG entries for SRQs. Currently IPoIB/CM implicitly assumes all HCAs will support 16 SG entries for SRQs (to handle a 64K MTU with 4K pages). This patch removes that restriction by limiting the maximum MTU in connected mode to what the maximum number of SRQ SG entries allows.

* IPoIB/cm: Add connected mode support for devices without SRQsPradeep Satyanarayana2008-01-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Some IB adapters (notably IBM's eHCA) do not implement SRQs (shared receive queues). The current IPoIB connected mode support only works on devices that support SRQs. Fix this by adding support for using the receive queue of each connected mode receive QP. The disadvantage of this compared to using an SRQ is that it means a full queue of receives must be posted for each remote connected mode peer, which means that total memory usage is potentially much higher than when using SRQs. To manage this, add a new module parameter "max_nonsrq_conn_qp" that limits the number of connections allowed per interface. The rest of the changes are fairly straightforward: we use a table of struct ipoib_cm_rx to hold all the active connections, and put the table index of the connection in the high bits of receive WR IDs. This is needed because we cannot rely on the struct ib_wc.qp field for non-SRQ receive completions. Most of the rest of the changes just test whether or not an SRQ is available, and post receives or find received packets in the right place depending on the answer. Cleaning up dead connections actually becomes simpler, because we do not have to do the "last WQE reached" dance that is required to destroy QPs attached to an SRQ. We just move the QP to the error state and wait for all pending receives to be flushed.
