In the near future, the driver core is going to not allow direct access
to the driver_data pointer in struct device. Instead, the functions
dev_get_drvdata() and dev_set_drvdata() should be used. These functions
have been around since the beginning, so are backwards compatible with
all older kernel versions.

When doing rdma_resolve_addr(), if the relevant IB port is down, the
function fails and the cm_id is not bound to the correct device.
Therefore, application does not have a device handle and cannot wait
for the port to become active. The function fails because the
underlying IPoIB interface is not joined to the broadcast group and
therefore the SA does not have a multicast record to take a Q_Key
from.
The fix is to use lazy Q_Key resolution - cma_set_qkey() will set
id_priv->qkey if it was not set, and will be called just before the
Q_Key is really required.

When joining an IPoIB multicast group, use the same rate as in the
broadcast group. Otherwise, if the RDMA CM creates this group before
IPoIB does, it might get a different rate. This will cause IPoIB to
fail joining to the same group later on, because IPoIB uses strict
rate selection.

Some attribute show functions test ibdev_is_alive() to make sure that
it's OK to access device state. However, the sysfs attributes will
not be registered until the device is fully initialized, and they'll
be unregistered before anything is torn down, so ibdev_is_alive()
doesn't do anything useful. Remove it.

Our testing uncovered a race condition in ib_sa_event():
spin_lock_irqsave(&port->ah_lock, flags);
if (port->sm_ah)
kref_put(&port->sm_ah->ref, free_sm_ah);
port->sm_ah = NULL;
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&port->ah_lock, flags);
schedule_work(&sa_dev->port[event->element.port_num -
sa_dev->start_port].update_task);
If two events occur back-to-back (e.g., client-reregister and LID
change), both may pass the spinlock-protected code above before the
scheduled work updates the port->sm_ah handle. Then if the scheduled
work ends up running twice, the second operation will then find a
non-NULL port->sm_ah, and will simply overwrite it in update_sm_ah --
resulting in an AH leak.

If ib_post_send_mad() returns 0, the API guarantees that there will be
a callback to send_buf->mad_agent->send_handler() so that the sender
can call ib_free_send_mad(). Otherwise, the ib_mad_send_buf will be
leaked and the mad_agent reference count will never go to zero and the
IB device module cannot be unloaded. The above can happen without
this patch if process_mad() returns (IB_MAD_RESULT_SUCCESS |
IB_MAD_RESULT_CONSUMED).
If process_mad() returns IB_MAD_RESULT_SUCCESS and there is no agent
registered to receive the mad being sent, handle_outgoing_dr_smp()
returns zero which causes a MAD packet which is at the end of the
directed route to be incorrectly sent on the wire but doesn't cause a
hang since the HCA generates a send completion.

There is a potential race in ib_register_mad_agent() where the struct
ib_mad_agent_private is not fully initialized before it is added to
the list of agents per IB port. This means the ib_mad_agent_private
could be seen before the refcount, spin locks, and linked lists are
initialized. The fix is to initialize the structure earlier.

handle_outgoing_dr_smp() can queue a struct ib_mad_local_private
*local on the mad_agent_priv->local_work work queue with
local->mad_priv == NULL if device->process_mad() returns
IB_MAD_RESULT_SUCCESS | IB_MAD_RESULT_REPLY and
(!ib_response_mad(&mad_priv->mad.mad) ||
!mad_agent_priv->agent.recv_handler).
In this case, local_completions() will be called with local->mad_priv
== NULL. The code does check for this case and skips calling
recv_mad_agent->agent.recv_handler() but recv == 0 so
kmem_cache_free() is called with a NULL pointer.
Also, since recv isn't reinitialized each time through the loop, it
can cause a memory leak if recv should have been zero.

Move the ib_device_unregister_sysfs() call from ib_dealloc_device() to
ib_unregister_device(). The old code allows device unregister to
proceed even if some sysfs files are open, which leaves a window where
userspace can open a file before a device is removed but then end up
reading the file after the device is removed, which leads to various
kernel crashes either because the device data structure is freed or
because the low-level driver code is gone after module removal.
By not returning from ib_unregister_device() until after all sysfs
entries are removed, we make sure that data structures and/or module
code is not freed until after all sysfs access is done.

Commit 38617c64 ("RDMA/addr: Add support for translating IPv6
addresses") broke the build when CONFIG_IPV6=n, because the ib_addr
module unconditionally attempted to call ipv6_chk_addr() and other
IPv6 functions that are not defined when IPv6 is disabled. Fix this
by only building IPv6 support if CONFIG_IPV6 is turned on, and
add a Kconfig dependency to prevent the ib_addr code from being built
in when IPv6 is built modular.

So let's keep our lives simple - let __fput() check FASYNC in

Tejun's commit 7b595756ec1f49e0049a9e01a1298d53a7faaa15 made sysfs
attribute->owner unnecessary. But the field was left in the structure to
ease the merge. It's been over a year since that change and it is now
time to start killing attribute->owner along with its users - one arch at
a time!
This patch is attempt #1 to get rid of attribute->owner only for
CONFIG_X86_64 or CONFIG_X86_32 . We will deal with other arches later on
as and when possible - avr32 will be the next since that is something I
can test. Compile (make allyesconfig / make allmodconfig / custom config)
and boot tested.
akpm: the idea is that we put the declaration of sttribute.owner inside
`#ifndef CONFIG_X86'. But that proved to be too ambitious for now because
new usages kept on turning up in subsystem trees.

Use the netevent notification for sensing that a change has happened
in the IP stack, then scan the rdma-cm ID list to see if there is an
ID that is "misaligned" with respect to the IP stack, and deliver
RDMA_CM_EVENT_ADDR_CHANGE for this ID. The consumer can act on the

The RDMA CM has some logic in place to make sure that callbacks on a
given CM ID are delivered to the consumer in a serialized manner.
Specifically it has code to protect against a device removal racing
with a running callback function.
This patch simplifies this logic by using a mutex per ID instead of a
wait queue and atomic variable. This means that cma_disable_remove()
now is more properly named to cma_disable_callback(), and
cma_enable_remove() can now be removed because it just would become a
trivial wrapper around mutex_unlock().

This patch adds a sysfs attribute group called "proto_stats" under
/sys/class/infiniband/$device/ and populates this group with protocol
statistics if they exist for a given device. Currently, only iWARP
stats are defined, but the code is designed to allow InfiniBand
protocol stats if they become available. These stats are per-device
and more importantly -not- per port.
Details:
- Add union rdma_protocol_stats in ib_verbs.h. This union allows
defining transport-specific stats. Currently only iwarp stats are
defined.
- Add struct iw_protocol_stats to define the current set of iwarp
protocol stats.
- Add new ib_device method called get_proto_stats() to return protocol
statistics.
- Add logic in core/sysfs.c to create iwarp protocol stats attributes
if the device is an RNIC and has a get_proto_stats() method.

I was reviewing the QP state transition diagram in the IB 1.2.1 spec
and the code for qp_state_table[], and noticed that the code allows a
QP to be modified from IB_QPS_RESET to IB_QPS_ERR whereas the notes
for figure 124 (pg 457) specifically says that this transition isn't
allowed. This is a clarification from earlier versions of the IB
spec, which were ambiguous in this area and suggested that the RESET
to ERR transition was allowed.
Fix up the qp_state_table[] to make RESET->ERR not allowed.

This patch adds support for the IB "base memory management extension"
(BMME) and the equivalent iWARP operations (which the iWARP verbs
mandates all devices must implement). The new operations are:
- Allocate an ib_mr for use in fast register work requests.
- Allocate/free a physical buffer lists for use in fast register work
requests. This allows device drivers to allocate this memory as
needed for use in posting send requests (eg via dma_alloc_coherent).
- New send queue work requests:
* send with remote invalidate
* fast register memory region
* local invalidate memory region
* RDMA read with invalidate local memory region (iWARP only)
Consumer interface details:
- A new device capability flag IB_DEVICE_MEM_MGT_EXTENSIONS is added
to indicate device support for these features.
- New send work request opcodes IB_WR_FAST_REG_MR, IB_WR_LOCAL_INV,
IB_WR_RDMA_READ_WITH_INV are added.
- A new consumer API function, ib_alloc_mr() is added to allocate
fast register memory regions.
- New consumer API functions, ib_alloc_fast_reg_page_list() and
ib_free_fast_reg_page_list() are added to allocate and free
device-specific memory for fast registration page lists.
- A new consumer API function, ib_update_fast_reg_key(), is added to
allow the key portion of the R_Key and L_Key of a fast registration
MR to be updated. Consumers call this if desired before posting
a IB_WR_FAST_REG_MR work request.
Consumers can use this as follows:
- MR is allocated with ib_alloc_mr().
- Page list memory is allocated with ib_alloc_fast_reg_page_list().
- MR R_Key/L_Key "key" field is updated with ib_update_fast_reg_key().
- MR made VALID and bound to a specific page list via
ib_post_send(IB_WR_FAST_REG_MR)
- MR made INVALID via ib_post_send(IB_WR_LOCAL_INV),
ib_post_send(IB_WR_RDMA_READ_WITH_INV) or an incoming send with
invalidate operation.
- MR is deallocated with ib_dereg_mr()
- page lists dealloced via ib_free_fast_reg_page_list().
Applications can allocate a fast register MR once, and then can
repeatedly bind the MR to different physical block lists (PBLs) via
posting work requests to a send queue (SQ). For each outstanding
MR-to-PBL binding in the SQ pipe, a fast_reg_page_list needs to be
allocated (the fast_reg_page_list is owned by the low-level driver
from the consumer posting a work request until the request completes).
Thus pipelining can be achieved while still allowing device-specific
page_list processing.
The 32-bit fast register memory key/STag is composed of a 24-bit index
and an 8-bit key. The application can change the key each time it
fast registers thus allowing more control over the peer's use of the
key/STag (ie it can effectively be changed each time the rkey is
rebound to a page list).

This patch solves a race that occurs after an event occurs that causes
the SA query module to flush its SM address handle (AH). When SM AH
becomes invalid and needs an update it is handled by the global
workqueue. On the other hand this event is also handled in the IPoIB
driver by queuing work in the ipoib_workqueue that does multicast
joins. Although queuing is in the right order, it is done to 2
different workqueues and so there is no guarantee that the first to be
queued is the first to be executed.
This causes a problem because IPoIB may end up sending an request to
the old SM, which will take a long time to time out (since the old SM
is gone); this leads to a much longer than necessary interruption in
multicast traffer.
The patch sets the SA query module's SM AH to NULL when the event
occurs, and until update_sm_ah() is done, any request that needs sm_ah
fails with -EAGAIN return status.
For consumers, the patch doesn't make things worse. Before the patch,
MADs are sent to the wrong SM so the request gets lost. Consumers can
be improved if they examine the return code and respond to EAGAIN
properly but even without an improvement the situation is not getting
worse.
