Honggang Li 547ed331bb RDMA/srp: Add parse function for maximum initiator to target IU size
According to SRP specifications 'srp-r16a' and 'srp2r06',
IOControllerProfile attributes for SRP target port include the maximum
initiator to target IU size.

SRP connection daemons, such as srp_daemon, can get the value from the
subnet manager. The SRP connection daemon can pass this value to kernel.

This patch adds a parse function for it.

Upstream commit [1] enables the kernel parameter, 'use_imm_data', by
default. [1] also use (8 * 1024) as the default value for kernel parameter
'max_imm_data'. With those default values, the maximum initiator to target
IU size will be 8260.

In case the SRPT modules, which include the in-tree 'ib_srpt.ko' module,
do not support SRP-2 'immediate data' feature, the default maximum
initiator to target IU size is significantly smaller than 8260. For
'ib_srpt.ko' module, which built from source before [2], the default
maximum initiator to target IU is 2116.

[1] introduces a regression issue for old srp targets with default kernel
parameters, as the connection will be rejected because of a too large
maximum initiator to target IU size.

[1] commit 882981f4a4 ("RDMA/srp: Add support for immediate data")
[2] commit 5dabcd0456 ("RDMA/srpt: Add support for immediate data")

Description: Interface for making ib_srp connect to a new target.
One can request ib_srp to connect to a new target by writing
a comma-separated list of login parameters to this sysfs
attribute. The supported parameters are:
* id_ext, a 16-digit hexadecimal number specifying the eight
byte identifier extension in the 16-byte SRP target port
identifier. The target port identifier is sent by ib_srp
to the target in the SRP_LOGIN_REQ request.
* ioc_guid, a 16-digit hexadecimal number specifying the eight
byte I/O controller GUID portion of the 16-byte target port
identifier.
* dgid, a 32-digit hexadecimal number specifying the
destination GID.
* pkey, a four-digit hexadecimal number specifying the
InfiniBand partition key.
* service_id, a 16-digit hexadecimal number specifying the
InfiniBand service ID used to establish communication with
the SRP target. How to find out the value of the service ID
is specified in the documentation of the SRP target.
* max_sect, a decimal number specifying the maximum number of
512-byte sectors to be transferred via a single SCSI command.
* max_cmd_per_lun, a decimal number specifying the maximum
number of outstanding commands for a single LUN.
* io_class, a hexadecimal number specifying the SRP I/O class.
Must be either 0xff00 (rev 10) or 0x0100 (rev 16a). The I/O
class defines the format of the SRP initiator and target
port identifiers.
* initiator_ext, a 16-digit hexadecimal number specifying the
identifier extension portion of the SRP initiator port
identifier. This data is sent by the initiator to the target
in the SRP_LOGIN_REQ request.
* cmd_sg_entries, a number in the range 1..255 that specifies
the maximum number of data buffer descriptors stored in the
SRP_CMD information unit itself. With allow_ext_sg=0 the
parameter cmd_sg_entries defines the maximum S/G list length
for a single SRP_CMD, and commands whose S/G list length
exceeds this limit after S/G list collapsing will fail.
* allow_ext_sg, whether ib_srp is allowed to include a partial
memory descriptor list in an SRP_CMD instead of the entire
list. If a partial memory descriptor list has been included
in an SRP_CMD the remaining memory descriptors are
communicated from initiator to target via an additional RDMA
transfer. Setting allow_ext_sg to 1 increases the maximum
amount of data that can be transferred between initiator and
target via a single SCSI command. Since not all SRP target
implementations support partial memory descriptor lists the
default value for this option is 0.
* sg_tablesize, a number in the range 1..2048 specifying the
maximum S/G list length the SCSI layer is allowed to pass to
ib_srp. Specifying a value that exceeds cmd_sg_entries is
only safe with partial memory descriptor list support enabled
(allow_ext_sg=1).
* comp_vector, a number in the range 0..n-1 specifying the
MSI-X completion vector of the first RDMA channel. Some
HCA's allocate multiple (n) MSI-X vectors per HCA port. If
the IRQ affinity masks of these interrupts have been
configured such that each MSI-X interrupt is handled by a
different CPU then the comp_vector parameter can be used to
spread the SRP completion workload over multiple CPU's.
* tl_retry_count, a number in the range 2..7 specifying the
IB RC retry count.
* queue_size, the maximum number of commands that the
initiator is allowed to queue per SCSI host. The default
value for this parameter is 62. The lowest supported value
is 2.
* max_it_iu_size, a decimal number specifying the maximum
initiator to target information unit length.
