IB/ehca: Deprecate driver, move to staging, schedule deletion

2015-09-11T22:13:35+00:00

The ehca driver is only supported on IBM machines with a custom EBus.
As they have opted to build their newer machines using more industry
standard technology and haven't really been pushing EBus capable
machines for a while, this driver can now safely be moved to the
staging area and scheduled for eventual removal.  This plan was brought
to IBM's attention and received their sign-off.

RDMA/amso1100: Deprecate the amso1100 driver and move to staging

2015-08-29T02:54:49+00:00

The HW hasn't been sold since 2005, and the SW has definite bit rot.
Its time to remove it.  So move it to staging for a few releases and
then remove it after that.

IB/ipath: Deprecate ipath driver and move to staging.

2015-08-29T02:54:49+00:00

It is now time for the ipath driver to begin to be phased out of the kernel.
This patch moves the ipath driver from the Infiniband sub tree to the staging
area where it will remain until the code is removed from the kernel in a few
releases.

IB/core: Implement support for MMU notifiers regarding on demand paging regions

2014-12-16T02:13:36+00:00

* Add an interval tree implementation for ODP umems. Create an
  interval tree for each ucontext (including a count of the number of
  ODP MRs in this context, semaphore, etc.), and register ODP umems in
  the interval tree.
* Add MMU notifiers handling functions, using the interval tree to
  notify only the relevant umems and underlying MRs.
* Register to receive MMU notifier events from the MM subsystem upon
  ODP MR registration (and unregister accordingly).
* Add a completion object to synchronize the destruction of ODP umems.
* Add mechanism to abort page faults when there's a concurrent invalidation.

The way we synchronize between concurrent invalidations and page
faults is by keeping a counter of currently running invalidations, and
a sequence number that is incremented whenever an invalidation is
caught. The page fault code checks the counter and also verifies that
the sequence number hasn't progressed before it updates the umem's
page tables. This is similar to what the kvm module does.

In order to prevent the case where we register a umem in the middle of
an ongoing notifier, we also keep a per ucontext counter of the total
number of active mmu notifiers. We only enable new umems when all the
running notifiers complete.

IB/core: Add flags for on demand paging support

2014-12-16T02:13:35+00:00

* Add a configuration option for enable on-demand paging support in
  the infiniband subsystem (CONFIG_INFINIBAND_ON_DEMAND_PAGING). In a
  later patch, this configuration option will select the MMU_NOTIFIER
  configuration option to enable mmu notifiers.
* Add a flag for on demand paging (ODP) support in the IB device capabilities.
* Add a flag to request ODP MR in the access flags to reg_mr.
* Fail registrations done with the ODP flag when the low-level driver
  doesn't support this.
* Change the conditions in which an MR will be writable to explicitly
  specify the access flags.  This is to avoid making an MR writable just
  because it is an ODP MR.
* Add a ODP capabilities to the extended query device verb.

IB/core: Make ib_addr a core IB module

2014-01-19T23:14:04+00:00

IP based addressing introduces the usage of rdma_addr_find_dmac_by_grh()
within ib_core.  Since this function is declared in ib_addr, ib_addr
should be a part of the core INFINIBAND modules, rather than
INFINIBAND_ADDR_TRANS.

IB/usnic: Add Cisco VIC low-level hardware driver

2014-01-14T08:44:28+00:00

This adds a driver that allows userspace to use UD-like QPs over a
proprietary Cisco transport with Cisco's Virtual Interface Cards (VICs),
including VIC 1240 and 1280 cards.

IB/core: Re-enable create_flow/destroy_flow uverbs

2013-11-17T16:22:09+00:00

This commit reverts commit 7afbddfae993 ("IB/core: Temporarily disable
create_flow/destroy_flow uverbs").  Since the uverbs extensions
functionality was experimental for v3.12, this patch re-enables the
support for them and flow-steering for v3.13.

IB/core: Temporarily disable create_flow/destroy_flow uverbs

2013-10-21T16:44:17+00:00

The create_flow/destroy_flow uverbs and the associated extensions to
the user-kernel verbs ABI are under review and are too experimental to
freeze at this point.

So userspace is not exposed to experimental features and an uinstable
ABI, temporarily disable this for v3.12 (with a Kconfig option behind
staging to reenable it if desired).

The feature will be enabled after proper cleanup for v3.13.
