      mlx4: 64-byte CQE/EQE support · 08ff3235
      Or Gerlitz 提交于
      ConnectX-3 devices can use either 64- or 32-byte completion queue
      entries (CQEs) and event queue entries (EQEs).  Using 64-byte
      EQEs/CQEs performs better because each entry is aligned to a complete
      cacheline.  This patch queries the HCA's capabilities, and if it
      supports 64-byte CQEs and EQES the driver will configure the HW to
      work in 64-byte mode.
      
      The 32-byte vs 64-byte mode is global per HCA and not per CQ or EQ.
      
      Since this mode is global, userspace (libmlx4) must be updated to work
      with the configured CQE size, and guests using SR-IOV virtual
      functions need to know both EQE and CQE size.
      
      In case one of the 64-byte CQE/EQE capabilities is activated, the
      patch makes sure that older guest drivers that use the QUERY_DEV_FUNC
      command (e.g as done in mlx4_core of Linux 3.3..3.6) will notice that
      they need an update to be able to work with the PPF. This is done by
      changing the returned pf_context_behaviour not to be zero any more. In
      case none of these capabilities is activated that value remains zero
      and older guest drivers can run OK.
      
      The SRIOV related flow is as follows
      
      1. the PPF does the detection of the new capabilities using
         QUERY_DEV_CAP command.
      
      2. the PPF activates the new capabilities using INIT_HCA.
      
      3. the VF detects if the PPF activated the capabilities using
         QUERY_HCA, and if this is the case activates them for itself too.
      
      Note that the VF detects that it must be aware to the new PF behaviour
      using QUERY_FUNC_CAP.  Steps 1 and 2 apply also for native mode.
      
      User space notification is done through a new field introduced in
      struct mlx4_ib_ucontext which holds device capabilities for which user
      space must take action. This changes the binary interface so the ABI
      towards libmlx4 exposed through uverbs is bumped from 3 to 4 but only
      when **needed** i.e. only when the driver does use 64-byte CQEs or
      future device capabilities which must be in sync by user space. This
      practice allows to work with unmodified libmlx4 on older devices (e.g
      A0, B0) which don't support 64-byte CQEs.
      
      In order to keep existing systems functional when they update to a
      newer kernel that contains these changes in VF and userspace ABI, a
      module parameter enable_64b_cqe_eqe must be set to enable 64-byte
      mode; the default is currently false.

      net/mlx4_en: num cores tx rings for every UP · bc6a4744
      Amir Vadai 提交于
      Change the TX ring scheme such that the number of rings for untagged packets
      and for tagged packets (per each of the vlan priorities) is the same, unlike
      the current situation where for tagged traffic there's one ring per priority
      and for untagged rings as the number of core.
      
      Queue selection is done as follows:
      
      If the mqprio qdisc is operates on the interface, such that the core networking
      code invoked the device setup_tc ndo callback, a mapping of skb->priority =>
      queue set is forced - for both, tagged and untagged traffic.
      
      Else, the egress map skb->priority =>  User priority is used for tagged traffic, and
      all untagged traffic is sent through tx rings of UP 0.
      
      The patch follows the convergence of discussing that issue with John Fastabend
      over this thread http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/229877

      net/mlx4_en: sk_prio <=> UP for untagged traffic · 897d7846
      Amir Vadai 提交于
      Since vlan egress map is only good for tagged traffic, need to have other
      mapping to be used by untagged traffic.
      For that, the driver uses sch_mqprio mapping. This mapping could be set by
      using tc tool from iproute2 package.
      Mapped UP will be used by the HW for QoS purposes, but won't go out on the
      wire.

      net/mlx4_en: Force user priority by QP attribute · 0e98b523
      Amir Vadai 提交于
      Instead of relying on HW to change schedule queue by UP, schedule
      queue is fixed for a tx_ring, and UP in WQE is ignored in this aspect.  This
      resolves two issues with untagged traffic:
      1. untagged traffic has no UP in packet which is needed for QoS. The change
         above allows setting the schedule queue (and by that the UP) of such a stream.
      2. BlueFlame uses the same field used by vlan tag. So forcing UP from QPC
         allows using BF for untagged but prioritized traffic.
      
      In old firmware that force UP is not supported, untagged traffic will not subject to
      QoS.
      
      Because UP is set by QP, need to always have a tx ring per UP, even if pfcrx
      module paramter is false.

      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking... · 5a0e3ad6
      Tejun Heo 提交于
      include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
      
      percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
      included when building most .c files.  percpu.h includes slab.h which
      in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
      universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
      
      percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed.  Prepare for
      this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
      headers directly instead of assuming availability.  As this conversion
      needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
      used as the basis of conversion.
      
        http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
      
      The script does the followings.
      
      * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
        only the necessary includes are there.  ie. if only gfp is used,
        gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
      
      * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
        blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
        to its surrounding.  It's put in the include block which contains
        core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
        alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
        doesn't seem to be any matching order.
      
      * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
        because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
        an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
        file.
      
      The conversion was done in the following steps.
      
      1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
         over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
         and ~3000 slab.h inclusions.  The script emitted errors for ~400
         files.
      
      2. Each error was manually checked.  Some didn't need the inclusion,
         some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
         embedding .c file was more appropriate for others.  This step added
         inclusions to around 150 files.
      
      3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
         from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
      
      4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
         e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
         APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
      
      5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
         editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
         files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell.  Most gfp.h
         inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
         wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros.  Each
         slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
         necessary.
      
      6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
      
      7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
         were fixed.  CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
         distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
         more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
         build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
      
         * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
         * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
         * ia64 SMP allmodconfig
         * s390 SMP allmodconfig
         * alpha SMP allmodconfig
         * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
      
      8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
         a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
      
      Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
      6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
      If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
      headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
      the specific arch.
