6371ea3d48 IPoIB/cm: Fix DMA direction typo
Receive buffers need to be mapped with DMA_FROM_DEVICE.  Incorrectly
mapping with DMA_TO_DEVICE causes a hard lock on ppc64 machines with
an IOMMU.

This fixes <https://bugs.openfabrics.org/show_bug.cgi?id=431>

1d426d6418 IB/iser: Don't defer connection failure notification to workqueue
When a connection is terminated asynchronously from the iSCSI layer's
perspective, iSER needs to notify the iSCSI layer that the connection
has failed.  This is done using a workqueue (switched to from the iSER
tasklet context).  Meanwhile, the connection object (that holds the
work struct) is released.  If the workqueue function wasn't called
yet, it will be called later with a NULL pointer, which will crash the
kernel.

The context switch (tasklet to workqueue) is not required, and
everything can be done from the iSER tasklet. This eliminates the NULL
work struct bug (and simplifies the code).

3104a2175d IB/iser: Handle aborting a command after it is sent
The SCSI midlayer may abort a command that was already sent.  If the
initiator is still trying to send the command (or data-out PDUs for
that command), the QP may time out after the midlayer times
out. Therefore, when aborting the command, iSER may still have
references for the command's buffers.  When sending these PDUs, the
sends will complete with an error and their resources will be released
then.

ecbb416939 [NET]: Fix neighbour destructor handling.
->neigh_destructor() is killed (not used), replaced with
->neigh_cleanup(), which is called when neighbor entry goes to dead
state. At this point everything is still valid: neigh->dev,
neigh->parms etc.

The device should guarantee that dead neighbor entries (neigh->dead !=
0) do not get private part initialized, otherwise nobody will cleanup
it.

I think this is enough for ipoib which is the only user of this thing.
Initialization private part of neighbor entries happens in ipib
start_xmit routine, which is not reached when device is down.  But it
would be better to add explicit test for neigh->dead in any case.

77d8e1efea IB/ipoib: Fix thinko in packet length checks
The packet length checks in ipoib are broken: we add 4 bytes (IPoIB
encapsulation header) when sending a packet, not 20 bytes (hardware
address length) to each packet.  Therefore, if connected mode is
enabled so that the interface MTU is larger than the multicast MTU,
IPoIB may end up trying to send too-long multicast packets.  For
example, multicast is broken if a message of size 2048 bytes is sent
on an interface with UD MTU 2048, because 2048 is bigger than the real
limit of 2044 but the code tests against the wrong limit of 2060.

There's a race between ipoib_mcast_leave() and ipoib_mcast_join_finish()
where we can try to detach from a multicast group before we've
attached to it.  Fix this by reordering the code in ipoib_mcast_leave

faec2f7b96 IB/sa: Track multicast join/leave requests
The IB SA tracks multicast join/leave requests on a per port basis and
does not do any reference counting: if two users of the same port join
the same group, and one leaves that group, then the SA will remove the
port from the group even though there is one user who wants to stay a
member left.  Therefore, in order to support multiple users of the
same multicast group from the same port, we need to perform reference
counting locally.

To do this, add an multicast submodule to ib_sa to perform reference
counting of multicast join/leave operations.  Modify ib_ipoib (the
only in-kernel user of multicast) to use the new interface.

839fcaba35 IPoIB: Connected mode experimental support
The following patch adds experimental support for IPoIB connected
mode, as defined by the draft from the IETF ipoib working group.  The
idea is to increase performance by increasing the MTU from the maximum
of 2K (theoretically 4K) supported by IPoIB on top of UD.  With this
code, I'm able to get 800MByte/sec or more with netperf without
options on a Mellanox 4x back-to-back DDR system.

Some notes on code:
1. SRQ is used for scalability to large cluster sizes
2. Only RC connections are used (UC does not support SRQ now)
3. Retry count is set to 0 since spec draft warns against retries
4. Each connection is used for data transfers in only 1 direction, so
   each connection is either active(TX) or passive (RX).  2 sides that
   want to communicate create 2 connections.
5. Each active (TX) connection has a separate CQ for send completions -
   this keeps the code simple without CQ resize and other tricks
6. To detect stale passive side connections (where the remote side is
   down), we keep an LRU list of passive connections (updated once per
   second per connection) and destroy a connection after it has been
   unused for several seconds. The LRU rule makes it possible to avoid
   scanning connections that have recently been active.

1033ff670d IB/srp: Don't wait for response when QP is in error state.
When there is a call to send_tsk_mgmt SRP posts a send and waits for 5
seconds to get a response.

When the QP is in the error state it is obvious that there will be no
response so it is quite useless to wait.  In fact, the timeout causes
SRP to wait a long time to reconnect when a QP error occurs. (Each
abort and each reset_device calls send_tsk_mgmt, which waits for the
timeout).  The following patch solves this problem by identifying the
failure and returning an immediate error code.

f0d1b0b30d [PATCH] LOG2: Implement a general integer log2 facility in the kernel
This facility provides three entry points:

	ilog2()		Log base 2 of unsigned long
	ilog2_u32()	Log base 2 of u32
	ilog2_u64()	Log base 2 of u64

These facilities can either be used inside functions on dynamic data:

	int do_something(long q)
	{
		...;
		y = ilog2(x)
		...;
	}

Or can be used to statically initialise global variables with constant values:

	unsigned n = ilog2(27);

When performing static initialisation, the compiler will report "error:
initializer element is not constant" if asked to take a log of zero or of
something not reducible to a constant.  They treat negative numbers as
unsigned.

When not dealing with a constant, they fall back to using fls() which permits
them to use arch-specific log calculation instructions - such as BSR on
x86/x86_64 or SCAN on FRV - if available.

Without this, only one connection can be made from any given HCA, even

74a2078061 IB/iser: DMA unmap unaligned for RDMA data before touching it
iSER uses the DMA mapping api to map the page holding the
SCSI command data to the HCA DMA address space. When the
command data is not aligned for RDMA, the data is copied
to/from an allocated buffer which in turn is used for
executing this command. The pages associated with the
command must be unmapped before being touched.

87e8df7a27 IB/iser: Have iSER data transaction object point to iSER conn
iSER uses a data transaction object (struct iser_dto) as part
of its IB data descriptors (struct iser_desc) management.
It also uses a hierarchy of connection structures pointing to
each other. A DTO may exist even after the iscsi_iser connection
pointed by it is destroyed (eg one that is bound to a post
receive buffer which was flushed by the IB HW). Hence DTOs need
point to the lowest connection, which is struct iser_conn.

8e18e2941c [PATCH] inode_diet: Replace inode.u.generic_ip with inode.i_private
The following patches reduce the size of the VFS inode structure by 28 bytes
on a UP x86.  (It would be more on an x86_64 system).  This is a 10% reduction
in the inode size on a UP kernel that is configured in a production mode
(i.e., with no spinlock or other debugging functions enabled; if you want to
save memory taken up by in-core inodes, the first thing you should do is
disable the debugging options; they are responsible for a huge amount of bloat
in the VFS inode structure).

This patch:

The filesystem or device-specific pointer in the inode is inside a union,
which is pretty pointless given that all 30+ users of this field have been
using the void pointer.  Get rid of the union and rename it to i_private, with
a comment to explain who is allowed to use the void pointer.  This is just a
cleanup, but it allows us to reuse the union 'u' for something something where
the union will actually be used.
