      net/mlx4_en: Port aggregation configuration · 5da03547
      Moni Shoua authored 
      Capture NETDEV events generated by the bonding driver and based on that
make decisions of how to configure port aggregation in the mlx4 core driver.

This includes setting the V2P port table and re-creating the interested
interfaces in bonded/non-bonded mode.

      net/mlx4_core: Port aggregation upper layer interface · 53f33ae2
      Moni Shoua authored 
      Supply interface functions to bond and unbond ports of a mlx4 internal
interfaces. Example for such an interface is the one registered by the
mlx4 IB driver under RoCE.

There are

1. Functions to go in/out to/from bonded mode
2. Function to remap virtual ports to physical ports

The bond_mutex prevents simultaneous access to data that keep status of
the device in bonded mode.

The upper mlx4 interface marks to the mlx4 core module that they
want to be subject for such bonding by setting the MLX4_INTFF_BONDING
flag. Interface which goes to/from bonded mode is re-created.

The mlx4 Ethernet driver does not set this flag when registering the
interface, the IB driver does.

      net/mlx4_core: Port aggregation low level interface · 59e14e32
      Moni Shoua authored 
      Implement the hardware interface required for port aggregation.

1. Disable RX port check on receive - don't perform a validity check
that matches to QP's port and the port where the packet is received.

2. Virtual to physical port remap - configure virtual to physical port
mapping. Port remap capability for virtual functions.

      Move slave state changes to a helper function, this is a pre-step for adding
functionality of dispatching an event when this helper is called.

This commit doesn't add new functionality.

      net/core: Add event for a change in slave state · 61bd3857
      Moni Shoua authored 
      Add event which provides an indication on a change in the state
of a bonding slave. The event handler should cast the pointer to the
appropriate type (struct netdev_bonding_info) in order to get the
full info about the slave.

====================
tipc: some small fixes

During extensive testing and analysis of running dual links between
nodes, we have encountered some issues that potentially may cause
problems. We choose to fix those proactively in this series.

      tipc: separate link starting event from link timeout event · af9946fd
      Jon Paul Maloy authored 
      When a new link instance is created, it is trigged to start by
sending it a TIPC_STARTING_EVT, whereafter a regular link
reset is applied to it.

The starting event is codewise treated as a timeout event, and prompts
a link RESET message to be sent to the peer node, carrying a link
session identifier. The later link_reset() call nudges this session
identifier, whereafter all subsequent RESET messages will be sent out
with the new identifier. The latter session number overrides the former,
causing the peer to unconditionally accept it irrespective of its
current working state.

We don't think that this causes any problem, but it is not in accordance
with the protocol spec, and may cause confusion when debugging TIPC
sessions.

To avoid this, we make the starting event distinct from the
subsequent timeout events, by not allowing the former to send
out any RESET message. This eliminates the described problem.

      tipc: eliminate race during node creation · b45db71b
      Jon Paul Maloy authored 
      Instances of struct node are created in the function tipc_disc_rcv()
under the assumption that there is no race between received discovery
messages arriving from the same node. This assumption is wrong.
When we use more than one bearer, it is possible that discovery
messages from the same node arrive at the same moment, resulting in
creation of two instances of struct tipc_node. This may later cause
confusion during link establishment, and may result in one of the links
never becoming activated.

We fix this by making lookup and potential creation of nodes atomic.
Instead of first looking up the node, and in case of failure, create it,
we now start with looking up the node inside node_link_create(), and
return a reference to that one if found. Otherwise, we go ahead and
create the node as we did before.

      tipc: avoid stale link after aborted failover · 7d24dcdb
      Jon Paul Maloy authored 
      During link failover it may happen that the remaining link goes
down while it is still in the process of taking over traffic
from a previously failed link. When this happens, we currently
abort the failover procedure and reset the first failed link to
non-failover mode, so that it will be ready to re-establish
contact with its peer when it comes available.

However, if the first link goes down because its bearer was manually
disabled, it is not enough to reset it; it must also be deleted;
which is supposed to happen when the failover procedure is finished.
Otherwise it will remain a zombie link: attached to the owner node
structure, in mode LINK_STOPPED, and permanently blocking any re-
establishing of the link to the peer via the interface in question.

We fix this by amending the failover abort procedure. Apart from
resetting the link to non-failover state, we test if the link is
also in LINK_STOPPED mode. If so, we delete it, using the conditional
tipc_link_delete() function introduced in the previous commit.

      tipc: add reference count to struct tipc_link · 2d72d495
      Jon Paul Maloy authored 
      When a bearer is disabled, all pertaining links will be reset and
deleted. However, if there is a second active link towards a killed
link's destination, the delete has to be postponed until the failover
is finished. During this interval, we currently put the link in zombie
mode, i.e., we take it out of traffic, delete its timer, but leave it
attached to the owner node structure until all missing packets have
been received.  When this is done, we detach the link from its node
and delete it, assuming that the synchronous timer deletion that was
initiated earlier in a different thread has finished.

This is unsafe, as the failover may finish before del_timer_sync()
has returned in the other thread.

We fix this by adding an atomic reference counter of type kref in
struct tipc_link. The counter keeps track of the references kept
to the link by the owner node and the timer. We then do a conditional
delete, based on the reference counter, both after the failover has
been finished and when the timer expires, if applicable. Whoever
comes last, will actually delete the link. This approach also implies
that we can make the deletion of the timer asynchronous.
