Validate MADs sent by userspace clients for spec compliance with
C13-18.1.1 (prevent duplicate requests and responses sent on the
same port).  Without this, RMPP transactions get aborted because
of duplicate packets.

This patch is similar to that provided by Jack Morgenstein.

ib_fmr_pool_map_phys gets the virtual address by pointer but never writes
there, and users (e.g.  srp) seem to assume this and ignore the value
returned.  This patch cleans up the API to get the VA by value, and updates
all users.

<title>IB/uverbs: Don't serialize with ib_uverbs_idr_mutex</title>
<updated>2006-06-18T03:44:49+00:00</updated>

<name>Roland Dreier</name>

<id>9ead190bfde2a434c74ea604382d08acb2eceef5</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently, all userspace verbs operations that call into the kernel
are serialized by ib_uverbs_idr_mutex.  This can be a scalability
issue for some workloads, especially for devices driven by the ipath
driver, which needs to call into the kernel even for datapath
operations.

Fix this by adding reference counts to the userspace objects, and then
converting ib_uverbs_idr_mutex into a spinlock that only protects the
idrs long enough to take a reference on the object being looked up.
Because remove operations may fail, we have to do a slightly funky
two-step deletion, which is described in the comments at the top of
uverbs_cmd.c.

This also still leaves ib_uverbs_idr_lock as a single lock that is
possibly subject to contention.  However, the lock hold time will only
be a single idr operation, so multiple threads should still be able to
make progress, even if ib_uverbs_idr_lock is being ping-ponged.

Surprisingly, these changes even shrink the object code:

add/remove: 23/5 grow/shrink: 4/21 up/down: 633/-693 (-60)

The P_Key is provided into a SIDR REQ in two places, once as a
parameter, and again in the path record.  Remove the P_Key as a
parameter and always use the one given in the path record.

This change has no practical effect on ABI functionality.
