If the completer is in the middle of a large read operation, one
lost packet can cause havoc. Going to COMPST_ERROR_RETRY will
cause the requester to resend the request. After that, any packet
from the first attempt still in the receive queue will be
interpreted as an error, restarting the error/retry sequence.
The transfer will quickly exhaust its retries.
This behavior is very noticeable when doing 512KB reads on a
QEMU system configured with 1500B MTU.
Also, a resent request here will prompt the responder on the
other side to immediately start resending, but the resent
packets will get stuck in the already-loaded receive queue and
will never be processed.
Rather than erroring out every time an unexpected future packet
arrives, just drop it. Eventually the retry timer will send a
duplicate request; the completer will be able to make progress since
the queue will start relatively empty.

Pull rdma updates from Doug Ledford:
"This is the complete update for the rdma stack for this release cycle.
Most of it is typical driver and core updates, but there is the
entirely new VMWare pvrdma driver. You may have noticed that there
were changes in DaveM's pull request to the bnxt Ethernet driver to
support a RoCE RDMA driver. The bnxt_re driver was tentatively set to
be pulled in this release cycle, but it simply wasn't ready in time
and was dropped (a few review comments still to address, and some
multi-arch build issues like prefetch() not working across all
arches).

It might be possible for all of a QP's references to be dropped
while one of that QP's tasklets is running.
For example, the completer might run during QP destroy.
If qp->valid is false, it will drop all of the packets on
the resp_pkts list, potentially removing the last reference.
Then it tries to advance the SQ consumer pointer. If the
SQ's buffer has already been destroyed, the system will
panic.
To be safe, hold a reference on the QP for the duration
of each tasklet.

The system may crash when a malformed request is received and
the error is detected by the responder.
NodeA: $ ibv_rc_pingpong -g 0 -d rxe0 -i 1 -n 1 -s 50000
NodeB: $ ibv_rc_pingpong -g 0 -d rxe0 -i 1 -n 1 -s 1024 <NodeA_ip>
The responder generates a receive error on node B since the incoming
SEND is oversized. If the client tears down the QP before the responder
or the completer finish running, a page fault may occur.
The fix makes the destroy operation spin until the tasks complete, which
appears to be original intent of the design.

This avoids missed completions due to a race between posting

A client might post a read followed by a send. The partner receives
and acknowledges both transactions, posting an RCQ entry for the
send, but something goes wrong with the read ACK. When the client
retries the read, the partner's responder processes the duplicate
read but incorrectly resets the PSN to the value preceding the
original send. When the duplicate send arrives, the responder cannot
tell that it is a duplicate, so the responder generates a duplicate
RCQ entry, confusing the client.

To correctly handle a erroneous WR this fix does the following
1. Make sure the bad WQE causes a user completion event.
2. Call rxe_completer to handle the erred WQE.
Before the fix, when rxe_requester found a bad WQE, it changed its
status to IB_WC_LOC_PROT_ERR and exit with 0 for non RC QPs.
If this was the 1st WQE then there would be no ACK to invoke the
completer and this bad WQE would be stuck in the QP's send-q.
On top of that the requester exiting with 0 caused rxe_do_task to
endlessly invoke rxe_requester, resulting in a soft-lockup attached
below.
In case the WQE was not the 1st and rxe_completer did get a chance to
handle the bad WQE, it did not cause a complete event since the WQE's
IB_SEND_SIGNALED flag was not set.
Setting WQE status to IB_SEND_SIGNALED is subject to IBA spec
version 1.2.1, section 10.7.3.1 Signaled Completions.

Soft RoCE (RXE) - The software RoCE driver
ib_rxe implements the RDMA transport and registers to the RDMA core
device as a kernel verbs provider. It also implements the packet IO
layer. On the other hand ib_rxe registers to the Linux netdev stack
as a udp encapsulating protocol, in that case RDMA, for sending and
receiving packets over any Ethernet device. This yields a RDMA
transport over the UDP/Ethernet network layer forming a RoCEv2
compatible device.
The configuration procedure of the Soft RoCE drivers requires
binding to any existing Ethernet network device. This is done with
/sys interface.
A userspace Soft RoCE library (librxe) provides user applications
the ability to run with Soft RoCE devices. The use of rxe verbs ins
user space requires the inclusion of librxe as a device specifics
plug-in to libibverbs. librxe is packaged separately.
