Every function that returns COMPST_ERROR must set wqe-&gt;status to another
value than IB_WC_SUCCESS before returning COMPST_ERROR. Fix the only code
path for which this is not yet the case.

<title>RDMA, core and ULPs: Declare ib_post_send() and ib_post_recv() arguments const</title>

<id>d34ac5cd3a73aacd11009c4fc3ba15d7ea62c411</id>
<content type='text'>
Since neither ib_post_send() nor ib_post_recv() modify the data structure
their second argument points at, declare that argument const. This change
makes it necessary to declare the 'bad_wr' argument const too and also to
modify all ULPs that call ib_post_send(), ib_post_recv() or
ib_post_srq_recv(). This patch does not change any functionality but makes
it possible for the compiler to verify whether the
ib_post_(send|recv|srq_recv) really do not modify the posted work request.

To make this possible, only one cast had to be introduce that casts away
constness, namely in rpcrdma_post_recvs(). The only way I can think of to
avoid that cast is to introduce an additional loop in that function or to
change the data type of bad_wr from struct ib_recv_wr ** into int
(an index that refers to an element in the work request list). However,
both approaches would require even more extensive changes than this
patch.

<title>IB/rxe: Drop QP0 silently</title>

According to "Annex A16: RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE)":

A16.4.3 MANAGEMENT INTERFACES

As defined in the base specification, a special Queue Pair, QP0 is defined
solely for communication between subnet manager(s) and subnet management
agents. Since such an IB-defined subnet management architecture is outside
the scope of this annex, it follows that there is also no requirement that
a port which conforms to this annex be associated with a QP0. Thus, for
end nodes designed to conform to this annex, the concept of QP0 is
undefined and unused for any port connected to an Ethernet network.

CA16-8: A packet arriving at a RoCE port containing a BTH with the
destination QP field set to QP0 shall be silently dropped.

Do not call sk_dst_set() on every packet transfer because
that calls sk_tx_queue_clear(), which clears the tx queue.
A QP must stay on the same tx queue to maintain packet order.

This patch replaces the ib_device_attr.max_sge with max_send_sge and
max_recv_sge. It allows ulps to take advantage of devices that have very
different send and recv sge depths.  For example cxgb4 has a max_recv_sge
of 4, yet a max_send_sge of 16.  Splitting out these attributes allows
much more efficient use of the SQ for cxgb4 with ulps that use the RDMA_RW
API. Consider a large RDMA WRITE that has 16 scattergather entries.
With max_sge of 4, the ulp would send 4 WRITE WRs, but with max_sge of
16, it can be done with 1 WRITE WR.
