      IB/mlx5: Allow future extension of libmlx5 input data · b037c29a
      Eli Cohen 提交于
      Current check requests that new fields in struct
      mlx5_ib_alloc_ucontext_req_v2 that are not known to the driver be zero.
      This was introduced so new libraries passing additional information to
      the kernel through struct mlx5_ib_alloc_ucontext_req_v2 will be notified
      by old kernels that do not support their request by failing the
      operation. This schecme is problematic since it requires libmlx5 to issue
      the requests with descending input size for struct
      mlx5_ib_alloc_ucontext_req_v2.
      
      To avoid this, we require that new features that will obey the following
      rules:
      If the feature requires one or more fields in the response and the at
      least one of the fields can be encoded such that a zero value means the
      kernel ignored the request then this field will provide the indication
      to the library. If no response is required or if zero is a valid
      response, a new field should be added that indicates to the library
      whether its request was processed.

      IB/mlx5: Use blue flame register allocator in mlx5_ib · 5fe9dec0
      Eli Cohen 提交于
      Make use of the blue flame registers allocator at mlx5_ib. Since blue
      flame was not really supported we remove all the code that is related to
      blue flame and we let all consumers to use the same blue flame register.
      Once blue flame is supported we will add the code. As part of this patch
      we also move the definition of struct mlx5_bf to mlx5_ib.h as it is only
      used by mlx5_ib.

      net/mlx5: Add interface to get reference to a UAR · 01187175
      Eli Cohen 提交于
      A reference to a UAR is required to generate CQ or EQ doorbells. Since
      CQ or EQ doorbells can all be generated using the same UAR area without
      any effect on performance, we are just getting a reference to any
      available UAR, If one is not available we allocate it but we don't waste
      the blue flame registers it can provide and we will use them for
      subsequent allocations.
      We get a reference to such UAR and put in mlx5_priv so any kernel
      consumer can make use of it.
