* IB/uverbs: Export ib_umem_get()/ib_umem_release() to modulesRoland Dreier2007-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Export ib_umem_get()/ib_umem_release() and put low-level drivers in control of when to call ib_umem_get() to pin and DMA map userspace, rather than always calling it in ib_uverbs_reg_mr() before calling the low-level driver's reg_user_mr method. Also move these functions to be in the ib_core module instead of ib_uverbs, so that driver modules using them do not depend on ib_uverbs. This has a number of advantages: - It is better design from the standpoint of making generic code a library that can be used or overridden by device-specific code as the details of specific devices dictate. - Drivers that do not need to pin userspace memory regions do not need to take the performance hit of calling ib_mem_get(). For example, although I have not tried to implement it in this patch, the ipath driver should be able to avoid pinning memory and just use copy_{to,from}_user() to access userspace memory regions. - Buffers that need special mapping treatment can be identified by the low-level driver. For example, it may be possible to solve some Altix-specific memory ordering issues with mthca CQs in userspace by mapping CQ buffers with extra flags. - Drivers that need to pin and DMA map userspace memory for things other than memory regions can use ib_umem_get() directly, instead of hacks using extra parameters to their reg_phys_mr method. For example, the mlx4 driver that is pending being merged needs to pin and DMA map QP and CQ buffers, but it does not need to create a memory key for these buffers. So the cleanest solution is for mlx4 to call ib_umem_get() in the create_qp and create_cq methods. Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
* RDMA/cxgb3: Fix MR permission problemsSteve Wise2007-03-06
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fix memory region permission problems: - remove useless and redundant iwch_mem_perms enum. - create ib_to_tpt_access_rights() for mapping ib access rights to T3 TPT permissions. - create ib_to_mwbind_access_rights() for mapping ib access rights to T3 MWBIND WR permissions. - fix up the mem reg code to utilize the new functions.

* RDMA/cxgb3: cleanupsAdrian Bunk2007-02-23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - don't mark static functions in C files as inline - gcc should know best whether inlining makes sense - never compile the unused cxio_dbg.c - make the following needlessly global functions static: - cxio_hal.c: cxio_hal_clear_qp_ctx() - iwch_provider.c: iwch_get_qp() - remove the following unused global functions: - cxio_hal.c: cxio_allocate_stag() - cxio_resource.: cxio_hal_get_rhdl() - cxio_resource.: cxio_hal_put_rhdl() Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de> Acked-by: Steve Wise <swise@opengridcomputing.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>
