Currently following inconsistencies exist. 1. ib_query_gid() returns GID from the software cache for a RoCE port and returns GID from the HCA for an IB port. This is incorrect because software GID cache is maintained regardless of HCA port type. 2. GID is queries from the HCA via ib_query_gid and updated in the software cache for IB link layer. Both of them might not be in sync. ULPs such as SRP initiator, SRP target, IPoIB driver have historically used ib_query_gid() API to query the GID. However CM used cached version during CM processing, When software cache was introduced, this inconsitency remained. In order to simplify, improve readability and avoid link layer specific above inconsistencies, this patch brings following changes. 1. ib_query_gid() always refers to the cache layer regardless of link layer. 2. cache module who reads the GID entry from HCA and builds the cache, directly invokes the HCA provider verb's query_gid() callback function. 3. ib_query_port() is being called in early stage where GID cache is not yet build while reading port immutable property. Therefore it needs to read the default GID from the HCA for IB link layer to publish the subnet prefix.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
