      IB/cm: Fix sleeping in atomic when RoCE is used · c7616118
      Roland Dreier authored 
      A couple of places in the CM do

    spin_lock_irq(&cm_id_priv->lock);
    ...
    if (cm_alloc_response_msg(work->port, work->mad_recv_wc, &msg))

However when the underlying transport is RoCE, this leads to a sleeping function
being called with the lock held - the callchain is

    cm_alloc_response_msg() ->
      ib_create_ah_from_wc() ->
        ib_init_ah_from_wc() ->
          rdma_addr_find_l2_eth_by_grh() ->
            rdma_resolve_ip()

and rdma_resolve_ip() starts out by doing

    req = kzalloc(sizeof *req, GFP_KERNEL);

not to mention rdma_addr_find_l2_eth_by_grh() doing

    wait_for_completion(&ctx.comp);

to wait for the task that rdma_resolve_ip() queues up.

Fix this by moving the AH creation out of the lock.

      IB/core: Add support to finalize objects in one transaction · f43dbebf
      Matan Barak authored 
      The new ioctl based infrastructure either commits or rollbacks
all objects of the method as one transaction. In order to do
that, we introduce a notion of dealing with a collection of
objects that are related to a specific method.

This also requires adding a notion of a method and attribute.
A method contains a hash of attributes, where each bucket
contains several attributes. The attributes are hashed according
to their namespace which resides in the four upper bits of the id.

For example, an object could be a CQ, which has an action of CREATE_CQ.
This action has multiple attributes. For example, the CQ's new handle
and the comp_channel. Each layer in this hierarchy - objects, methods
and attributes is split into namespaces. The basic example for that is
one namespace representing the default entities and another one
representing the driver specific entities.

When declaring these methods and attributes, we actually declare
their specifications. When a method is executed, we actually
allocates some space to hold auxiliary information. This auxiliary
information contains meta-data about the required objects, such
as pointers to their type information, pointers to the uobjects
themselves (if exist), etc.
The specification, along with the auxiliary information we allocated
and filled is given to the finalize_objects function.

      IB/core: Add a generic way to execute an operation on a uobject · a0aa309c
      Matan Barak authored 
      The ioctl infrastructure treats all user-objects in the same manner.
It gets objects ids from the user-space and by using the object type
and type attributes mentioned in the object specification, it executes
this required method. Passing an object id from the user-space as
an attribute is carried out in three stages. The first is carried out
before the actual handler and the last is carried out afterwards.

The different supported operations are read, write, destroy and create.
In the first stage, the former three actions just fetches the object
from the repository (by using its id) and locks it. The last action
allocates a new uobject. Afterwards, the second stage is carried out
when the handler itself carries out the required modification of the
object. The last stage is carried out after the handler finishes and
commits the result. The former two operations just unlock the object.
Destroy calls the "free object" operation, taking into account the
object's type and releases the uobject as well. Creation just adds the
new uobject to the repository, making the object visible to the
application.

In order to abstract these details from the ioctl infrastructure
layer, we add uverbs_get_uobject_from_context and
uverbs_finalize_object functions which corresponds to the first
and last stages respectively.
