implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

ib_ud_header_init() first clears header and then fills up the various
fields. Later on, it tests header->immediate_present, which it has
already cleared, so the condition is always false. Fix this by adding

as is done with grh_present. Also remove unused calculation of

Current code has a limitation: an LSO header is not allowed to cross a
64 byte boundary. This patch removes this limitation by setting the
WQE RR for large headers thus allowing LSO headers of any size. The
extra buffer reserved for MLX4_IB_QP_LSO QPs has been doubled, from 64
to 128 bytes, assuming this is reasonable upper limit for header
length. Also, this patch will cause IB_DEVICE_UD_TSO to be set only
for HCA FW versions that set MLX4_DEV_CAP_FLAG_BLH; e.g. FW version
2.6.000 and higher.

Userspace apps are supposed to release all ib device resources if they
receive a fatal async event (IBV_EVENT_DEVICE_FATAL). However, the
app has no way of knowing when the device has come back up, except to
repeatedly attempt ibv_open_device() until it succeeds.
However, currently there is no protection against the open succeeding
while the device is in being removed following the fatal event. In
this case, the open will succeed, but as a result the device waits in
the middle of its removal until the new app releases its resources --
and the new app will not do so, since the open succeeded at a point
following the fatal event generation.
This patch adds an "active" flag to the device. The active flag is set
to false (in the fatal event flow) before the "fatal" event is
generated, so any subsequent ibv_dev_open() call to the device will
fail until the device comes back up, thus preventing the above
deadlock.

The ConnectX Programmer's Reference Manual states that the "SO" bit
must be set when posting Fast Register and Local Invalidate send work
requests. When this bit is set, the work request will be executed
only after all previous work requests on the send queue have been
executed. (If the bit is not set, Fast Register and Local Invalidate
WQEs may begin execution too early, which violates the defined
semantics for these operations)

The low-level mlx4 driver modified the page-list addresses for fast
register work requests post send to big-endian, and set a "present"
bit. This caused problems later when the consumer attempted to unmap
the pages using the page-list (using the list addresses which were
assumed to be still in CPU-endian order). Fix the mlx4 driver to
allocate two buffers and use a private buffer for the hardware-format
bus addresses.
This patch fixes <https://bugs.openfabrics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1571>,

When snooping a PortInfo MAD, its client_reregister bit is checked.
If the bit is ON then a CLIENT_REREGISTER event is dispatched,
otherwise a LID_CHANGE event is dispatched. This way of decision
ignores the cases where the MAD changes the LID along with an
instruction to reregister (so a necessary LID_CHANGE event won't be
dispatched) or the MAD is neither of these (and an unnecessary
LID_CHANGE event will be dispatched).
This causes problems at least with IPoIB, which will do a "light"
flush on reregister, rather than the "heavy" flush required due to a
LID change.
Fix this by dispatching a CLIENT_REREGISTER event if the
client_reregister bit is set, but also compare the LID in the MAD to
the current LID. If and only if they are not identical then a
LID_CHANGE event is dispatched.

The current work request posting code writes the LSO segment before
writing any data segments. This leaves a window where the LSO segment
overwrites the stamping in one cacheline that the HCA prefetches
before the rest of the cacheline is filled with the correct data
segments. When the HCA processes this work request, a local
protection error may result.
Fix this by saving the LSO header size field off and writing it only
after all data segments are written. This fix is a cleaned-up version
of a patch from Jack Morgenstein <jackm@dev.mellanox.co.il>.

When resizing a CQ, MTTs associated with the old CQE buffer were not
freed. As a result, if any app used resize CQ repeatedly, all MTTs
were eventually exhausted, which led to all memory registration
operations failing until the driver is reloaded.
Once the RESIZE_CQ command returns successfully from FW, FW no longer
accesses the old CQ buffer, so it is safe to deallocate the MTT
entries used by the old CQ buffer.
Finally, if the RESIZE_CQ command fails, the MTTs allocated for the
new CQEs buffer also need to be de-allocated.

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).

The idea is that for QPs with fixed size work requests (eg selective
signaling QPs), before stamping the WQE, we read the value of the DS
field, which gives the effective size of the descriptor as used in the
previous post. Then we stamp only that area, since the rest of the
descriptor is already stamped.
When initializing the send queue buffer, make sure the DS field is
initialized to the max descriptor size so that the subsequent stamping
will be done on the entire descriptor area.
