* 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>

* IPoIB: Fix deadlock on RTNL in ipoib_stop()Roland Dreier2008-08-19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit c8c2afe3 ("IPoIB: Use rtnl lock/unlock when changing device flags") added a call to rtnl_lock() in ipoib_mcast_join_task(), which is run from the ipoib_workqueue. 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.

| | * [SCSI] libiscsi, iscsi_tcp, ib_iser: fix setting of can_queue with old tools.Mike Christie2008-07-12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes two bugs that are related. 1. Old tools did not set can_queue/cmds_max. This patch modifies libiscsi so that when we add the host we catch this and set it to the default. 2. iscsi_tcp thought that the scsi command that was passed to the eh functions needed a iscsi_cmd_task allocated for it. It only needed a mgmt task, and now it does not matter since it all comes from the same pool and libiscsi handles this for the drivers. ib_iser had copied iscsi_tcp's code and set can_queue to its max - 1 to handle this. So this patch removes the max -1, and just sets it to the max. Signed-off-by: Mike Christie <michaelc@cs.wisc.edu> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The recv lock was defined so the iscsi layer could block the recv path from processing IO during recovery. It turns out iser just set a lock to that pointer which was pointless. We now disconnect the transport connection before doing recovery so we do not need the recv lock. For iscsi_tcp we still stop the recv path incase older tools are being used. This patch also has iscsi_itt_to_ctask user grab the session lock and has the caller access the task with the lock or get a ref to it in case the target is broken and sends a tmf success response then sends data or a response for the command that was supposed to be affected bty the tmf.

The session level initiatorname: Since bnx2i does a scsi_host per host device, we need to add the iface initiator port settings on the session, so we can create multiple initiator ports (each with different inames) per device/scsi_host. The current iname reflects that qla4xxx can have one iname per hba, and we are allocating a host per session for software. The iname on the host will remain so we can export and set the hba level qla4xxx setting. The ifacename attr: To bind a session to a some peice of hardware in userspace we maintain some mappings, but during boot or iscsid restart (iscsid contains the user space part of the driver) we need to be able to figure out which of those host mappings abstractions maps to certain sessions. This patch adds a ifacename attr, which userspace can set to id the host side of the endpoint across pivot_roots and iscsid restarts.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

However, ipoib_cm_post_receive_nonsrq() always reuses the same receive work request and scatter list structures, so multiple callers can end up stepping on each other, which leads to posting garbled work requests. Fix this by having the caller pass in the ib_recv_wr and ib_sge structures to use, and allocating new local structures in ipoib_cm_nonsrq_init_rx().

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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>

| * | IB/srp: Remove use of cached P_Key/GID queriesRoland Dreier2008-07-15
| |/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The SRP initiator is currently using ib_find_cached_pkey() and ib_get_cached_gid() in situations where the uncached ib_find_pkey() and ib_query_gid() functions serve just as well: sleeping is allowed and performance is not an issue. Since we want to eliminate the cached operations in the long term, convert SRP to use the uncached variants. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>

* IPoIB: Test for NULL broadcast object in ipiob_mcast_join_finish()Jack Morgenstein2008-05-20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We saw a kernel oops in our regression testing when a multicast "join finish" occurred just after the interface was -- this is <https://bugs.openfabrics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1040>. The test randomly causes the HCA physical port to go down then up. The cause of this is that ipoib_mcast_join_finish() processing happen just after ipoib_mcast_dev_flush() was invoked (in which case the broadcast pointer is NULL). This patch tests for and handles the case where priv->broadcast is NULL.

* IB/ipoib: Fix transmit queue stalling foreverEli Cohen2008-04-30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit f56bcd80 ("IPoIB: Use separate CQ for UD send completions") introduced a bug where the transmit queue could get stopped and never woken up. The problem is that send completions are only polled at the end of the xmit function, so if the send queue fills up and the xmit path stops the queue, then there is no way for send completions to ever get polled, and so the transmit queue stays stopped forever. Fix this by arming the send CQ just before posting the last send request that fills the send queue. Then, when the completion event handler is called, drain the send CQ. Since it is possible that not enough send completions are in the CQ, verify that the the net queue has been woken up after draining the send CQ, and if not arm a timer and drain again at the timer function.

* IPoIB: Copy child MTU from parentEli Cohen2008-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | | | | When creating a child interface, copy the MTU information from the parent. Otherwise when the child's multicast join completes, the MTU will not be updated since the code does dev->mtu = min(priv->mcast_mtu, priv->admin_mtu); and priv->admin_mtu will be set to 0.

* IPoIB: Use separate CQ for UD send completionsEli Cohen2008-04-29
| | | | | | | | | | Use a dedicated CQ for UD send completions. Also, do not arm the UD send CQ, which reduces the number of interrupts generated. 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.
