The path_rec_completion() callback may be invoked asynchronously even
at the middle of "driver uninit" process. This can lead to scheduling
a task that tries to touch members of the priv object that are no
longer valid. For example the function cm_create_tx_qp can attempt to
create qp with no valid priv->pd object.
The following crash is one of the results:

The driver should avoid calling ib_sa_free_multicast on the mcast->mc
object until it finishes its initialization state. Otherwise we can
crash when ipoib_mcast_dev_flush() attempts to use the uninitialized
multicast object.
Instead, only call wait_for_completion() for multicast entries that
started the join process, meaning that ib_sa_join_multicast() finished.

When ipoib interface is going down it takes all of its children with
it, under mutex.
For each child, dev_change_flags() is called. That function calls
ipoib_stop() via the ndo, and causes flush of the workqueue.
Sometimes in the workqueue an __ipoib_dev_flush work() is waiting and
when invoked tries to get the same mutex, which leads to a deadlock,
as seen below.
The solution is to switch to rw-sem instead of mutex.

If napi has never been enabled when calling ipoib_ib_dev_stop, a
kernel crash occurs, because the verbs layer completion handler
(ipoib_ib_completion) calls napi_schedule unconditionally.
If the napi structure passed in the napi_schedule call has not
been initialized, napi will crash.
The cleanest solution is to simply enable napi before calling
ipoib_ib_dev_stop in the dev_open error flow. (dev_stop then
immediately disables napi).

In several places, this snippet is used when removing neigh entries:
list_del(&neigh->list);
ipoib_neigh_free(neigh);
The list_del() removes neigh from the associated struct ipoib_path, while
ipoib_neigh_free() removes neigh from the device's neigh entry lookup
table. Both of these operations are protected by the priv->lock
spinlock. The table however is also protected via RCU, and so naturally
the lock is not held when doing reads.
This leads to a race condition, in which a thread may successfully look
up a neigh entry that has already been deleted from neigh->list. Since
the previous deletion will have marked the entry with poison, a second
list_del() on the object will cause a panic:

We move the list_del() into ipoib_neigh_free(), so that deletion happens

IPoIB's required behaviour w.r.t to the pkey used by the device is the following:
- For "parent" interfaces (e.g ib0, ib1, etc) who are created
automatically as a result of hot-plug events from the IB core, the
driver needs to take whatever pkey vlaue it finds in index 0, and
stick to that index.
- For child interfaces (e.g ib0.8001, etc) created by admin directive,
the driver needs to use and stick to the value provided during its
creation.
In SR-IOV environment its possible for the VF probe to take place
before the cloud management software provisions the suitable pkey for
the VF in the paravirtualed PKEY table index 0. When this is the case,
the VF IB stack will find in index 0 an invalide pkey, which is all
zeros.
Moreover, the cloud managment can assign the pkey value at index 0 at
any time of the guest life cycle.
The correct behavior for IPoIB to address these requirements for
parent interfaces is to use PKEY_CHANGE event as trigger to optionally
re-init the device pkey value and re-create all the relevant resources
accordingly, if the value of the pkey in index 0 has changed (from
invalid to valid or from valid value X to invalid value Y).
This patch enhances the heavy flushing code which is triggered by pkey
change event, to behave correctly for parent devices. For child
devices, the code remains the same, namely chases pkey value and not
index.

Support TIPC in the IPoIB driver. Since IPoIB now keeps track of its own
neighbour entries and doesn't require the packet to have a dst_entry
anymore, the only necessary changes are to:
- not drop multicast TIPC packets because of the unknown ethernet type
- handle unicast TIPC packets similar to IPv4/IPv6 unicast packets
in ipoib_start_xmit().
An alternative would be to remove all ethertype limitations since they're
not necessary anymore, all TIPC needs to know about is ARP and RARP since
it wants to always perform "path find", even if a path is already known.

If you have a patched up dhcp server (and dhclient), they will use
AF_PACKET/SOCK_DGRAM pair to send dhcp packets over IPoIB.
However, when testing an upstream kernel, this has been broken for a
very long time (I tested 2.6.34, 2.6.38, 3.0, 3.1, 3.8, HEAD).
It turns out that the hard_header routine in ipoib is not following
the API and is returning 0 even when it pushed data onto the skb.
This then causes af_packet.c to overwrite the header just pushed with
data from user space.
Fixing this gets DHCP working on IPoIB.

Commit f0dc117abd ("IPoIB: Fix TX queue lockup with mixed UD/CM

completions can deadlock the netdev.
The patch doesn't fully resolve the issue because if more than half
the tx_outstanding's were UD and all of the destinations are RC
reachable, arming the CQ doesn't solve the issue.
This patch uses the IB_CQ_REPORT_MISSED_EVENTS on the
ib_req_notify_cq(). If the rc is above 0, the UD send cq completion
callback is called directly to re-arm the send completion timer.
This issue is seen in very large parallel filesystem deployments
and the patch has been shown to correct the issue.

If IPoIB fails to look up a path record (eg if it tries during an SM
failover when one SM is dead but the new one hasn't taken over yet), the
driver ends up with a neighbour structure but no address handle (AH).
There's no mechanism to recover from this: any further packets sent to
this destination will be silently dumped in ipoib_start_xmit().
Fix this by freeing the neighbour structures when a path rec query
fails, so that the next packet queued to be sent will trigger a new path
record query.

After commit b13912bbb4 ("IPoIB: Call skb_dst_drop() once skb is
enqueued for sending"), using connected mode and running multithreaded
iperf for long time, ie
iperf -c <IP> -P 16 -t 3600
results in a crash.
After the above-mentioned patch, the driver is calling skb_orphan() and
skb_dst_drop() after calling post_send() in ipoib_cm.c::ipoib_cm_send()
(also in ipoib_ib.c::ipoib_send())
The problem with this is, as is written in a comment in both routines,
"it's entirely possible that the completion handler will run before we
execute anything after the post_send()." This leads to running the
skb cleanup routines simultaneously in two different contexts.
The solution is to always perform the skb_orphan() and skb_dst_drop()
before queueing the send work request. If an error occurs, then it
will be no different than the regular case where dev_free_skb_any() in
the completion path, which is assumed to be after these two routines.

Currently, IPoIB delays collecting send completions for TX packets in
order to batch work more efficiently. It does skb_orphan() right after
queuing the packets so that destructors run early, to avoid problems
like holding socket send buffers for too long (since we might not
collect a send completion until a long time after the packet is
actually sent).
However, IPoIB clears IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE because it actually looks
at skb_dst() to update the PMTU when it gets a too-long packet. This
means that the packets sitting in the TX ring with uncollected send
completions are holding a reference on the dst. We've seen this lead
to pathological behavior with respect to route and neighbour GC. The
easy fix for this is to call skb_dst_drop() when we call skb_orphan().
Also, give packets sent via connected mode (CM) the same skb_orphan()
/ skb_dst_drop() treatment that packets sent via datagram mode get.

Merge tag 'rdma-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/roland/infiniband
Pull infiniband updates from Roland Dreier:
"First batch of InfiniBand/RDMA changes for the 3.7 merge window:
- mlx4 IB support for SR-IOV
- A couple of SRP initiator fixes
- Batch of nes hardware driver fixes
- Fix for long-standing use-after-free crash in IPoIB
- Other miscellaneous fixes"
This merge also removes a new use of __cancel_delayed_work(), and
replaces it with the regular cancel_delayed_work() that is now irq-safe
thanks to the workqueue updates.
That said, I suspect the sequence in question should probably use
"mod_delayed_work()". I just did the minimal "don't use deprecated
functions" fixup, though.

Fix a crash in ipoib_mcast_join_task(). (with help from Or Gerlitz)
Commit c8c2afe360 ("IPoIB: Use rtnl lock/unlock when changing device
flags") added a call to rtnl_lock() in ipoib_mcast_join_task(), which
is run from the ipoib_workqueue, and hence the workqueue can't be
flushed from the context of ipoib_stop().
In the current code, ipoib_stop() (which doesn't flush the workqueue)
calls ipoib_mcast_dev_flush(), which goes and deletes all the
multicast entries. This takes place without any synchronization with
a possible running instance of ipoib_mcast_join_task() for the same
ipoib device, leading to a crash due to NULL pointer dereference.
Fix this by making sure that the workqueue is flushed before
ipoib_mcast_dev_flush() is called. To make that possible, we move the
RTNL-lock wrapped code to ipoib_mcast_join_finish().

Add rtnl_link_ops to IPoIB, with the first usage being child device
create/delete through them. Childs devices are now either legacy ones,
created/deleted through the ipoib sysfs entries, or RTNL ones.
Adding support for RTNL childs involved refactoring of ipoib_vlan_add
which is now used by both the sysfs and the link_ops code.
Also, added ndo_uninit entry to support calling unregister_netdevice_queue
from the rtnl dellink entry. This required removal of calls to
ipoib_dev_cleanup from the driver in flows which use unregister_netdevice,
since the networking core will invoke ipoib_uninit which does exactly that.

Lockdep points out a circular locking dependency betwwen the ipoib
device priv spinlock (priv->lock) and the neighbour table rwlock
(ntbl->rwlock).
In the normal path, ie neigbour garbage collection task, the neigh
table rwlock is taken first and then if the neighbour needs to be
deleted, priv->lock is taken.
However in some error paths, such as in ipoib_cm_handle_tx_wc(),
priv->lock is taken first and then ipoib_neigh_free routine is called
which in turn takes the neighbour table ntbl->rwlock.
The solution is to get rid the neigh table rwlock completely and use
only priv->lock.

If the neighbours hash table is empty when unloading the module, then
ipoib_flush_neighs(), the cleanup routine, isn't called and the
memory used for the hash table itself leaked.
To fix this, ipoib_flush_neighs() is allways called, and another
completion object is added to signal when the table is freed.
Once invoked, ipoib_flush_neighs() flushes all the neighbours (if
there are any), calls the the hash table RCU free routine, which now
signals completion of the deletion process, and waits for the last
neighbour to be freed.

Commit b63b70d877 ("IPoIB: Use a private hash table for path lookup
in xmit path") introduced a bug where in ipoib_cm_destroy_tx() a CM
object is moved between lists without any supported locking. Under a
stress test, this eventually leads to list corruption and a crash.
Previously when this routine was called, callers were taking the
device priv lock. Currently this function is called from the RCU
callback associated with neighbour deletion. Fix the race by taking
the same lock we used to before.

Dave Miller <davem@davemloft.net> provided a detailed description of
why the way IPoIB is using neighbours for its own ipoib_neigh struct
is buggy:
Any time an ipoib_neigh is changed, a sequence like the following is made:
spin_lock_irqsave(&priv->lock, flags);
/*
* It's safe to call ipoib_put_ah() inside
* priv->lock here, because we know that
* path->ah will always hold one more reference,
* so ipoib_put_ah() will never do more than
* decrement the ref count.
*/
if (neigh->ah)
ipoib_put_ah(neigh->ah);
list_del(&neigh->list);
ipoib_neigh_free(dev, neigh);
spin_unlock_irqrestore(&priv->lock, flags);
ipoib_path_lookup(skb, n, dev);
This doesn't work, because you're leaving a stale pointer to the freed up
ipoib_neigh in the special neigh->ha pointer cookie. Yes, it even fails
with all the locking done to protect _changes_ to *ipoib_neigh(n), and
with the code in ipoib_neigh_free() that NULLs out the pointer.
The core issue is that read side calls to *to_ipoib_neigh(n) are not
being synchronized at all, they are performed without any locking. So
whether we hold the lock or not when making changes to *ipoib_neigh(n)
you still can have threads see references to freed up ipoib_neigh
objects.
cpu 1 cpu 2
n = *ipoib_neigh()
*ipoib_neigh() = NULL
kfree(n)
n->foo == OOPS
[..]
Perhaps the ipoib code can have a private path database it manages
entirely itself, which holds all the necessary information and is
looked up by some generic key which is available easily at transmit
time and does not involve generic neighbour entries.
See <http://marc.info/?l=linux-rdma&m=132812793105624&w=2> and
<http://marc.info/?l=linux-rdma&w=2&r=1&s=allows+references+to+freed+memory&q=b>
for the full discussion.
This patch aims to solve the race conditions found in the IPoIB driver.
The patch removes the connection between the core networking neighbour
structure and the ipoib_neigh structure. In addition to avoiding the
race described above, it allows us to handle SKBs carrying IP packets
that don't have any associated neighbour.
We add an ipoib_neigh hash table with N buckets where the key is the
destination hardware address. The ipoib_neigh is fetched from the
hash table and instead of the stashed location in the neighbour
structure. The hash table uses both RCU and reference counting to
guarantee that no ipoib_neigh instance is ever deleted while in use.
Fetching the ipoib_neigh structure instance from the hash also makes
the special code in ipoib_start_xmit that handles remote and local
bonding failover redundant.
Aged ipoib_neigh instances are deleted by a garbage collection task
that runs every M seconds and deletes every ipoib_neigh instance that
was idle for at least 2*M seconds. The deletion is safe since the
ipoib_neigh instances are protected using RCU and reference count
mechanisms.
The number of buckets (N) and frequency of running the GC thread (M),
are taken from the exported arb_tbl.

This will be used so that we can compose a full flow key.
Even though we have a route in this context, we need more. In the
future the routes will be without destination address, source address,
etc. keying. One ipv4 route will cover entire subnets, etc.
In this environment we have to have a way to possess persistent storage
for redirects and PMTU information. This persistent storage will exist
in the FIB tables, and that's why we'll need to be able to rebuild a
full lookup flow key here. Using that flow key will do a fib_lookup()
and create/update the persistent entry.

Use a bit in wc_flags rather then a whole integer to hold the
"checksum OK" flag. By itself, this change doesn't reduce the size of
struct ib_wc on 64bit machines -- it stays on 56 bytes because of
padding. However, it will allow to add more fields in the future
without enlarging the struct. Also, it will let us have a unified
approach with future libibverbs checksum offload reporting, because a
bit flag doesn't break the library ABI.

Reduce the number of dst_get_neighbour_noref() calls within a single

Handle dst_get_neighbour_noref() returning NULL in ipoib_start_xmit()

that should only happen when skb_dst() is NULL.

Coinciding with stack trace is the following message:
ib0: ib_address_create failed
The code below in ipoib_mcast_join_finish() will note the above
failure in the address handle but otherwise continue:
ah = ipoib_create_ah(dev, priv->pd, &av);
if (!ah) {
ipoib_warn(priv, "ib_address_create failed\n");
} else {
The while loop at the bottom of ipoib_mcast_join_finish() will attempt
to send queued multicast packets in mcast->pkt_queue and eventually
end up in ipoib_mcast_send():
if (!mcast->ah) {
if (skb_queue_len(&mcast->pkt_queue) < IPOIB_MAX_MCAST_QUEUE)
skb_queue_tail(&mcast->pkt_queue, skb);
else {
++dev->stats.tx_dropped;
dev_kfree_skb_any(skb);
}
My read is that the code will requeue the packet and return to the
ipoib_mcast_join_finish() while loop and the stage is set for the
"hung" task diagnostic as the while loop never sees a non-NULL ah, and
will do nothing to resolve.
There are GFP_ATOMIC allocates in the provider routines, so this is
possible and should be dealt with.
The test that induced the failure is associated with a host SM on the
same server during a shutdown.
This patch causes ipoib_mcast_join_finish() to exit with an error
which will flush the queued mcast packets. Nothing is done to unwind

The meaning of CONFIG_EMBEDDED has long since been obsoleted; the option
is used to configure any non-standard kernel with a much larger scope than
only small devices.
This patch renames the option to CONFIG_EXPERT in init/Kconfig and fixes
references to the option throughout the kernel. A new CONFIG_EMBEDDED
option is added that automatically selects CONFIG_EXPERT when enabled and
can be used in the future to isolate options that should only be
considered for embedded systems (RISC architectures, SLOB, etc).
Calling the option "EXPERT" more accurately represents its intention: only
expert users who understand the impact of the configuration changes they
are making should enable it.

IGMP processing is broken because the IPOIB does not set the
skb->pkt_type the right way for multicast traffic. All incoming
packets are set to PACKET_HOST which means that igmp_recv() will
ignore the IGMP broadcasts/multicasts.
This in turn means that the IGMP timers are firing and are sending
information about multicast subscriptions unnecessarily. In a large

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.

The IPoIB UD QP reports send completions to priv->send_cq, which is
usually left unarmed; it only gets armed when the number of
outstanding send requests reaches the size of the TX queue. This
arming is done only in the send path for the UD QP. However, when
sending CM packets, the net queue may be stopped for the same reasons
but no measures are taken to recover the UD path from a lockup.
Consider this scenario: a host sends high rate of both CM and UD
packets, with a TX queue length of N. If at some time the number of
outstanding UD packets is more than N/2 and the overall outstanding
packets is N-1, and CM sends a packet (making the number of
outstanding sends equal N), the TX queue will be stopped. When all
the CM packets complete, the number of outstanding packets will still
be higher than N/2 so the TX queue will not be restarted.
Fix this by calling ib_req_notify_cq() when the queue is stopped in
the CM path.

IPoIB can miss a change in destination GID under some conditions. The
problem is caused when ipoib_neigh->dgid contains a stale address.
The fix is to set ipoib_neigh->dgid to zero in ipoib_neigh_alloc().
This can happen when a system using bonding on its IPoIB interfaces
has switched its active interface from interface A to B and back to A.
The system that fails over will not correctly processes the 2nd
address change, as described below.
When an address has changed neighbor->ha is updated with the new
address. Each neighbor has an associated ipoib_neigh.
ipoib_neigh->dgid also holds a copy of the remote node's hardware
address. When an address changes neighbor->ha is updated by the
network layer (arp code) with the new address. IPoIB detects this
change in ipoib_start_xmit() by comparing neighbor->ha with
ipoib_neigh->dgid. The bug is that ipoib_neigh->dgid may already
contain the new address (A) thus the change from B to A is missed by
ipoib. Here is the sequence of events:
ipoib_neigh->dgid = A and neighbor->ha = A
The address is switched to B (the first switch)
neighbor->ha = B
The change is seen in ipoib_start_xmit() -- neighbor->ha !=
ipoib_neigh->dgid so ipoib_neigh is released, and a new one is
allocated.
The allocator may return the same chunk of memory that was just
released, therefore ipoib_neigh->dgid still contains A at this point.
ipoib_neigh->dgid should be updated in neigh_add_path(), but if the
following conditions are true dgid is not updated:
1) __path_find() returns a path
2) path->ah is NULL
The remote system now switches from address B to A, neighbor->ha is
updated to A.
Now we have again : ipoib_neigh->dgid = A and neighbor->ha = A
Since the addresses are the same ipoib won't process the change in
address. Fix this by zeroing out the dgid field when allocating a new
struct ipoib_neigh.

RDMA/nes: Remove duplicate .ndo_set_mac_address field initialization

Multicast joins can succeed even if the IB port is down. This happens
when the SM runs on the same port with the requesting port. However,
IPoIB calls netif_carrier_on() when the join of the broadcast group
succeeds, without caring about the state of the IB port. The result
is an IPoIB interface in RUNNING state but without an active IB port
to support it.
If a bonding interface uses this IPoIB interface as a slave it might
not detect that this slave is almost useless and failover
functionality will be damaged. The fix checks the state of the IB
port in the carrier_task before calling netif_carrier_on().

IPoIB currently must use irqsave locking for priv->lock, since it is
taken from interrupt context in one path. However, ipoib_send() does
skb_orphan(), and the network stack locking is not IRQ-safe.
Therefore we need to make sure we don't hold priv->lock when calling
ipoib_send() to avoid lockdep warnings (the code was almost certainly
safe in practice, since the only code path that takes priv->lock from
interrupt context would never call into the network stack).

If NAPI is enabled while IPoIB's CQ is being drained, it creates a
race on priv->ibwc between ipoib_poll() and ipoib_drain_cq(), leading
to memory corruption.
The solution is to enable/disable NAPI in ipoib_ib_dev_{open/stop}()
instead of in ipoib_{open/stop}(), and sync NAPI on the INITIALIZED
flag instead on the ADMIN_UP flag. This way NAPI will be disabled when
ipoib_drain_cq() is called.

If path_rec_start() returns error, call path_free() only if the path
was newly-created. If we free an existing path whose valid flag was zero,
(but do not detach it from the list) we cause corruption of the
path list (of which it is a member), and get a kernel crash.
The simplest solution is to not free an existing path -- just leave it
in the list as-is (i.e., with its valid flag cleared).

Fix a deadlock between child interface creation/deletion and ipoib
start/stop. The former takes vlan_mutex, and then might take RTNL via
register_netdev()/unregister_netdev(). The latter is executed with
RTNL held, and tries to take vlan_mutex, which can lead to an AB-BA
deadlock.
Fix this by having the child interface creation/deletion code take the
RTNL first so vlan_mutex always nests inside RTNL. We can use
register_netdevice() for child interfaces because we form the
interface name from the parent interface and hence don't need the '%'
expansion of register_netdev().

Fix bonding failover in the case both peers failover and the
gratuitous ARP is lost. In that case, the sender side will create an
ipoib_neigh and issue a path request with the old GID first. When
skb->dst->neighbour->ha changes due to ARP refresh, this ipoib_neigh
will not be added to the path->list of the path of the new GID,
because the ipoib_neigh already exists. It will not have an AH
either, because of sender-side failover. Therefore, it will not get
an AH when the path is resolved.
The solution here is to compare GIDs in ipoib_start_xmit() even if
neigh->ah is invalid. Comparing with an uninitialized value of
neigh->dgid should be fine, since a spurious match is harmless (and
astronomically unlikely too).

Currently, IPoIB is an LLTX driver that uses its own IRQ-disabling
tx_lock. Not only do we want to get rid of LLTX, this actually causes
problems because of the skb_orphan() done with this tx_lock held: some
skb destructors expect to be run with interrupts enabled.
The simplest fix for this is to get rid of the driver-private tx_lock
and stop using LLTX. We kill off priv->tx_lock and use
netif_tx_lock[_bh]() instead; the patch to do this is a tiny bit
tricky because we need to update places that take priv->lock inside
the tx_lock to disable IRQs, rather than relying on tx_lock having
already disabled IRQs.
Also, there are a couple of places where we need to disable BHs to
make sure we have a consistent context to call netif_tx_lock() (since
we no longer can use _irqsave() variants), and we also have to change
ipoib_send_comp_handler() to call drain_tx_cq() through a timer rather
than directly, because ipoib_send_comp_handler() runs in interrupt
context and drain_tx_cq() must run in BH context so it can call
netif_tx_lock().

Commit ee1e2c82 ("IPoIB: Refresh paths instead of flushing them on SM
change events") changed how paths are flushed on an SM event. This
change introduces a problem if the path record query triggered by
fails, causing path->ah to become NULL. A later successful path query
will then trigger WARN_ON() in path_rec_completion(), and crash
because path->ah has already been freed, so the ipoib_put_ah() inside
the lock in path_rec_completion() may actually drop the last reference
(contrary to the comment that claims this is safe).
Fix this by updating path->ah and freeing old_ah only when the path
record query is successful. This prevents the neighbour AH and that
path AH from getting out of sync.

Taking rtnl_lock in ipoib_mcast_join_complete() causes a deadlock with
ipoib_stop(). We avoid it by scheduling the piece of code that takes
the lock on ipoib_workqueue instead of executing it directly. This
works because we only flush the ipoib_workqueue with the RTNL not held.
The deadlock happens because ipoib_stop() calls ipoib_ib_dev_down()
which calls ipoib_mcast_dev_flush(), which calls ipoib_mcast_free(),
which calls ipoib_mcast_leave(). The latter calls
ib_sa_free_multicast(), and this waits until the multicast completion
handler finishes. This handler is ipoib_mcast_join_complete(), which
waits for the rtnl_lock(), which was already taken by ipoib_stop().

The patch tries to solve the problem of device going down and paths being
flushed on an SM change event. The method is to mark the paths as candidates for
refresh (by setting the new valid flag to 0), and wait for an ARP
probe a new path record query.
The solution requires a different and less intrusive handling of SM
change event. For that, the second argument of the flush function
changes its meaning from a boolean flag to a level. In most cases, SM
failover doesn't cause LID change so traffic won't stop. In the rare
cases of LID change, the remote host (the one that hadn't changed its
LID) will lose connectivity until paths are refreshed. This is no
worse than the current state. In fact, preventing the device from
going down saves packets that otherwise would be lost.

However, ipoib_cm_post_receive_nonsrq() always reuses the same receive

up stepping on each other, which leads to posting garbled work

The connected mode implementation in the IPoIB driver has a large
overhead in the way SKBs are handled in the receive flow. It usually
allocates an SKB with as big as was used in the currently received SKB
and moves unused fragments from the old SKB to the new one. This
involves a loop on all the remaining fragments and incurs overhead on
the CPU. This patch, for small SKBs, allocates an SKB just large
enough to contain the received data and copies to it the data from the
received SKB. The newly allocated SKB is passed to the stack and the
old SKB is reposted.
When running netperf, UDP small messages, without this pach I get:
UDP UNIDIRECTIONAL SEND TEST from 0.0.0.0 (0.0.0.0) port 0 AF_INET to

With this patch I get both send and receive at ~315 mbps.
The reason that send performance actually slows down is as follows:
When using this patch, the overhead of the CPU for handling RX packets
is dramatically reduced. As a result, we do not experience RNR NAK
messages from the receiver which cause the connection to be closed and
reopened again; when the patch is not used, the receiver cannot handle
the packets fast enough so there is less time to post new buffers and
hence the mentioned RNR NACKs. So what happens is that the
application *thinks* it posted a certain number of packets for
transmission but these packets are flushed and do not really get
transmitted. Since the connection gets opened and closed many times,
each time netperf gets the CPU time that otherwise would have been
given to IPoIB to actually transmit the packets. This can be verified
when looking at the port counters -- the output of ifconfig and the
oputput of netperf (this is for the case without the patch):
tx packets
