It was found that when a process was rapidly sending MADs other processes could
be hung in their unregister calls.
This would happen when process A was injecting packets fast enough that the
single threaded workqueue was never exiting ib_mad_completion_handler.
Therefore when process B called flush_workqueue via the unregister call it
would hang until process A stopped sending MADs.
The fix is to periodically reschedule ib_mad_completion_handler after
processing a large number of completions. The number of completions chosen was
decided based on the defaults for the recv queue size. However, it was kept
fixed such that increasing those queue sizes would not adversely affect
fairness in the future.

The cross-channel feature allows to execute WQEs that involve
synchronization of I/O operations’ on different QPs.
This capability enables to program complex flows with a single
function call, hereby significantly reducing overhead associated
with I/O processing.
Cross-channel operations support is indicated by HCA capability
information.
The queue pairs can be configured to work as a “sync master queue”
or “sync slave queues”.
The added flags are:
1. Device capability flag IB_DEVICE_CROSS_CHANNEL for the
devices that can perform cross-channel operations.
2. CQ property flag IB_CQ_FLAGS_IGNORE_OVERRUN to disable CQ overrun
check. This check is useless in cross-channel scenario.
3. QP property flags to indicate if queues are slave or master:
* IB_QP_CREATE_MANAGED_SEND indicates that posted send work requests
will not be executed immediately and requires enabling.
* IB_QP_CREATE_MANAGED_RECV indicates that posted receive work
requests will not be executed immediately and requires enabling.
* IB_QP_CREATE_CROSS_CHANNEL declares the QP to work in cross-channel
mode. If IB_QP_CREATE_MANAGED_SEND and IB_QP_CREATE_MANAGED_RECV are
not provided, this QP will be sync master queue, else it will be sync
slave.

This adds an abstraction that allows ULPs to simply pass a completion
object and completion callback with each submitted WR and let the RDMA
core handle the nitty gritty details of how to handle completion
interrupts and poll the CQ.
In detail there is a new ib_cqe structure which just contains the
completion callback, and which can be used to get at the containing
object using container_of. It is pointed to by the WR and WC as an
alternative to the wr_id field, similar to how many ULPs already use
the field to store a pointer using casts.
A driver using the new completion callbacks allocates it's CQs using
the new ib_create_cq API, which in addition to the number of CQEs and
the completion vectors also takes a mode on how we poll for CQEs.
Three modes are available: direct for drivers that never take CQ
interrupts and just poll for them, softirq to poll from softirq context
using the to be renamed blk-iopoll infrastructure which takes care of
rearming and budgeting, or a workqueue for consumer who want to be
called from user context.
Thanks a lot to Sagi Grimberg who helped reviewing the API, wrote
the current version of the workqueue code because my two previous
attempts sucked too much and converted the iSER initiator to the new
API.

A new SRP target has been observed to respond to Send CM REQ

with IBA spec but exposes a vulnerability in the current MAD/CM
code which will respond to the incoming GetResp of CM REQ as if
it was a valid incoming Send of CM REQ rather than tossing
this on the floor. It also causes the MAD layer not to

Fix the code for detecting gaps. A gap occurs not only if the

any scatterlist element other than the last does not end at a

In the code for coalescing contiguous elements, ensure that
mr->length is correct and that last_page_addr is up-to-date.
Ensure that this function returns a negative

__GFP_WAIT has been used to identify atomic context in callers that hold
spinlocks or are in interrupts. They are expected to be high priority and
have access one of two watermarks lower than "min" which can be referred
to as the "atomic reserve". __GFP_HIGH users get access to the first
lower watermark and can be called the "high priority reserve".
Over time, callers had a requirement to not block when fallback options
were available. Some have abused __GFP_WAIT leading to a situation where
an optimisitic allocation with a fallback option can access atomic
reserves.
This patch uses __GFP_ATOMIC to identify callers that are truely atomic,
cannot sleep and have no alternative. High priority users continue to use
__GFP_HIGH. __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM identifies callers that can sleep and
are willing to enter direct reclaim. __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM to identify
callers that want to wake kswapd for background reclaim. __GFP_WAIT is
redefined as a caller that is willing to enter direct reclaim and wake
kswapd for background reclaim.
This patch then converts a number of sites
o __GFP_ATOMIC is used by callers that are high priority and have memory
pools for those requests. GFP_ATOMIC uses this flag.
o Callers that have a limited mempool to guarantee forward progress clear
__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM but keep __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. bio allocations fall
into this category where kswapd will still be woken but atomic reserves
are not used as there is a one-entry mempool to guarantee progress.
o Callers that are checking if they are non-blocking should use the
helper gfpflags_allow_blocking() where possible. This is because
checking for __GFP_WAIT as was done historically now can trigger false
positives. Some exceptions like dm-crypt.c exist where the code intent
is clearer if __GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM is used instead of the helper due to
flag manipulations.
o Callers that built their own GFP flags instead of starting with GFP_KERNEL
and friends now also need to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM.
The first key hazard to watch out for is callers that removed __GFP_WAIT
and was depending on access to atomic reserves for inconspicuous reasons.
In some cases it may be appropriate for them to use __GFP_HIGH.
The second key hazard is callers that assembled their own combination of
GFP flags instead of starting with something like GFP_KERNEL. They may
now wish to specify __GFP_KSWAPD_RECLAIM. It's almost certainly harmless
if it's missed in most cases as other activity will wake kswapd.

The new fast registration verb ib_map_mr_sg receives a scatterlist
and converts it to a page list under the verbs API thus hiding
the specific HW mapping details away from the consumer.
The provider drivers are provided with a generic helper ib_sg_to_pages
that converts a scatterlist into a vector of page addresses. The
drivers can still perform any HW specific page address setting
by passing a set_page function pointer which will be invoked for
each page address. This allows drivers to avoid keeping a shadow
page vectors and convert them to HW specific translations by doing
extra copies.
This API will allow ULPs to remove the duplicated code of constructing
a page vector from a given sg list.
The send work request ib_reg_wr also shrinks as it will contain only
mr, key and access flags in addition.
