Commit 1ae5c187 ("IB/uverbs: Don't store struct file * for event files") changed the way that closed files are handled in the uverbs code. However, after the conversion, is_closed flag is checked incorrectly in ib_uverbs_async_handler(). As a result, no async events are ever passed to applications.

There is a race from when a device is created with device_create() and then the drvdata is set with a call to dev_set_drvdata() in which a sysfs file could be open, yet the drvdata will be NULL, causing all sorts of bad things to happen. This patch fixes the problem by using the new function, device_create_drvdata().

The file member of struct ib_uverbs_event_file was only used to keep track of whether the file had been closed or not. The only thing we ever did with the value was check if it was NULL or not. Simplify the code and get rid of the need to keep track of the struct file * we allocate by replacing the file member with an is_closed member. Signed-off-by: NRoland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>

Export ib_umem_get()/ib_umem_release() and put low-level drivers in control of when to call ib_umem_get() to pin and DMA map userspace, rather than always calling it in ib_uverbs_reg_mr() before calling the low-level driver's reg_user_mr method. Also move these functions to be in the ib_core module instead of ib_uverbs, so that driver modules using them do not depend on ib_uverbs. This has a number of advantages: - It is better design from the standpoint of making generic code a library that can be used or overridden by device-specific code as the details of specific devices dictate. - Drivers that do not need to pin userspace memory regions do not need to take the performance hit of calling ib_mem_get(). For example, although I have not tried to implement it in this patch, the ipath driver should be able to avoid pinning memory and just use copy_{to,from}_user() to access userspace memory regions. - Buffers that need special mapping treatment can be identified by the low-level driver. For example, it may be possible to solve some Altix-specific memory ordering issues with mthca CQs in userspace by mapping CQ buffers with extra flags. - Drivers that need to pin and DMA map userspace memory for things other than memory regions can use ib_umem_get() directly, instead of hacks using extra parameters to their reg_phys_mr method. For example, the mlx4 driver that is pending being merged needs to pin and DMA map QP and CQ buffers, but it does not need to create a memory key for these buffers. So the cleanest solution is for mlx4 to call ib_umem_get() in the create_qp and create_cq methods. Signed-off-by: NRoland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>

Add a num_comp_vectors member to struct ib_device and extend ib_create_cq() to pass in a comp_vector parameter -- this parallels the userspace libibverbs API. Update all hardware drivers to set num_comp_vectors to 1 and have all ULPs pass 0 for the comp_vector value. Pass the value of num_comp_vectors to userspace rather than hard-coding a value of 1. We want multiple CQ event vector support (via MSI-X or similar for adapters that can generate multiple interrupts), but it's not clear how many vectors we want, or how we want to deal with policy issues such as how to decide which vector to use or how to set up interrupt affinity. This patch is useful for experimenting, since no core changes will be necessary when updating a driver to support multiple vectors, and we know that we want to make at least these changes anyway.

Wait until all users have closed their device context before allowing device unregistration to complete. This prevents a crash caused by referring to stale data structures. A better solution would be to have a way to revoke contexts rather than waiting for userspace to close the context, but that's a much bigger change that will have to wait.

Extend the get_sb() filesystem operation to take an extra argument that permits the VFS to pass in the target vfsmount that defines the mountpoint. The filesystem is then required to manually set the superblock and root dentry pointers. For most filesystems, this should be done with simple_set_mnt() which will set the superblock pointer and then set the root dentry to the superblock's s_root (as per the old default behaviour). The get_sb() op now returns an integer as there's now no need to return the superblock pointer. This patch permits a superblock to be implicitly shared amongst several mount points, such as can be done with NFS to avoid potential inode aliasing. In such a case, simple_set_mnt() would not be called, and instead the mnt_root and mnt_sb would be set directly. The patch also makes the following changes: (*) the get_sb_*() convenience functions in the core kernel now take a vfsmount pointer argument and return an integer, so most filesystems have to change very little. (*) If one of the convenience function is not used, then get_sb() should normally call simple_set_mnt() to instantiate the vfsmount. This will always return 0, and so can be tail-called from get_sb(). (*) generic_shutdown_super() now calls shrink_dcache_sb() to clean up the dcache upon superblock destruction rather than shrink_dcache_anon(). This is required because the superblock may now have multiple trees that aren't actually bound to s_root, but that still need to be cleaned up. The currently called functions assume that the whole tree is rooted at s_root, and that anonymous dentries are not the roots of trees which results in dentries being left unculled. However, with the way NFS superblock sharing are currently set to be implemented, these assumptions are violated: the root of the filesystem is simply a dummy dentry and inode (the real inode for '/' may well be inaccessible), and all the vfsmounts are rooted on anonymous[*] dentries with child trees. [*] Anonymous until discovered from another tree. (*) The documentation has been adjusted, including the additional bit of changing ext2_* into foo_* in the documentation.

Currently, all userspace verbs operations that call into the kernel are serialized by ib_uverbs_idr_mutex. This can be a scalability issue for some workloads, especially for devices driven by the ipath driver, which needs to call into the kernel even for datapath operations. Fix this by adding reference counts to the userspace objects, and then converting ib_uverbs_idr_mutex into a spinlock that only protects the idrs long enough to take a reference on the object being looked up. Because remove operations may fail, we have to do a slightly funky two-step deletion, which is described in the comments at the top of uverbs_cmd.c. This also still leaves ib_uverbs_idr_lock as a single lock that is possibly subject to contention. However, the lock hold time will only be a single idr operation, so multiple threads should still be able to make progress, even if ib_uverbs_idr_lock is being ping-ponged. Surprisingly, these changes even shrink the object code: add/remove: 23/5 grow/shrink: 4/21 up/down: 633/-693 (-60) Signed-off-by: NRoland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>

completion events after destroying a CQ, QP or SRQ. We do this by sweeping the event lists before returning from a destroy calls, and then return the number of events already reported before the destroy call. This allows userspace wait until it has processed all events for an object returned from the kernel before it frees its context for the object. The ABI of the destroy CQ, destroy QP and destroy SRQ commands has to change to return the event count, so bump the ABI version from 1 to 2. The userspace libibverbs library has already been updated to handle both the old and new ABI versions. Signed-off-by: NRoland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>

Add SRQ support to userspace verbs module. This adds several commands and associated structures, but it's OK to do this without bumping the ABI version because the commands are added at the end of the list so they don't change the existing numbering. There are two cases to worry about: 1. New kernel, old userspace. This is OK because old userspace simply won't try to use the new SRQ commands. None of the old commands are changed. 2. Old kernel, new userspace. This works perfectly as long as userspace doesn't try to use SRQ commands. If userspace tries to use SRQ commands, it will get EINVAL, which is perfectly reasonable: the kernel doesn't support SRQs, so we couldn't do any better.
