An ib_client callback that is called with the lists_rwsem locked only for read is protected from changes to the IB client lists, but not from ib_unregister_device() freeing its client data. This is because ib_unregister_device() will remove the device from the device list with lists_rwsem locked for write, but perform the rest of the cleanup, including the call to remove() without that lock. Mark client data that is undergoing de-registration with a new going_down flag in the client data context. Lock the client data list with lists_rwsem for write in addition to using the spinlock, so that functions calling the callback would be able to lock only lists_rwsem for read and let callbacks sleep. Since ib_unregister_client() now marks the client data context, no need for remove() to search the context again, so pass the client data directly to remove() callbacks.

By default, IPoIB-CM driver uses 64k MTU. Larger MTU gives better performance. This MTU plus overhead puts the memory allocation for IP based packets at 32 4k pages (order 5), which have to be contiguous. When the system memory under pressure, it was observed that allocating 128k contiguous physical memory is difficult and causes serious errors (such as system becomes unusable). This enhancement resolve the issue by removing the physically contiguous memory requirement using Scatter/Gather feature that exists in Linux stack. With this fix Scatter-Gather will be supported also in connected mode. This change reverts some of the change made in commit e112373f ("IPoIB/cm: Reduce connected mode TX object size"). The ability to use SG in IPoIB CM is possible because the coupling between NETIF_F_SG and NETIF_F_CSUM was removed in commit ec5f0615 ("net: Kill link between CSUM and SG features.")

Persuant to Liran's comments on node_type on linux-rdma mailing list: In an effort to reform the RDMA core and ULPs to minimize use of node_type in struct ib_device, an additional bit is added to struct ib_device for is_switch (IB switch). This is needed to be initialized by any IB switch device driver. This is a NEW requirement on such device drivers which are all "out of tree". In addition, an ib_switch helper was added to ib_verbs.h based on the is_switch device bit rather than node_type (although those should be consistent). The RDMA core (MAD, SMI, agent, sa_query, multicast, sysfs) as well as (IPoIB and SRP) ULPs are updated where appropriate to use this new helper. In some cases, the helper is now used under the covers of using rdma_[start end]_port rather than the open coding previously used.

The current code in the RX flow uses two sg entries for each incoming packet, the first one was for the IB headers and the second for the rest of the data, that causes two dma map/unmap and two allocations, and few more actions that were done at the data path. Use only one linear skb on each incoming packet, for the data (IB headers and payload), that reduces the packet processing in the data-path (only one skb, no frags, the first frag was not used anyway, less memory allocations) and the dma handling (only one dma map/unmap over each incoming packet instead of two map/unmap per each incoming packet). After commit 73d3fe6d ("gro: fix aggregation for skb using frag_list") from Eric Dumazet, we will get full aggregation for large packets.

We needed the mcast_mutex when we had to prevent the join completion callback from having the value it stored in mcast->mc overwritten by a delayed return from ib_sa_join_multicast. By storing the return of ib_sa_join_multicast in an intermediate variable, we prevent a delayed return from ib_sa_join_multicast overwriting the valid contents of mcast->mc, and we no longer need a mutex to force the join callback to run after the return of ib_sa_join_multicast. This allows us to do away with the mutex entirely and protect our critical sections with a just a spinlock instead. This is highly desirable as there were some places where we couldn't use a mutex because the code was not allowed to sleep, and so we were currently using a mix of mutex and spinlock to protect what we needed to protect. Now we only have a spin lock and the locking complexity is greatly reduced. Signed-off-by: NDoug Ledford <dledford@redhat.com>

Allow the ipoib layer to attempt to join all outstanding multicast groups at once. The ib_sa layer will serialize multiple attempts to join the same group, but will process attempts to join different groups in parallel. Take advantage of that. In order to make this happen, change the mcast_join_thread to loop through all needed joins, sending a join request for each one that we still need to join. There are a few special cases we handle though: 1) Don't attempt to join anything but the broadcast group until the join of the broadcast group has succeeded. 2) No longer restart the join task at the end of completion handling. If we completed successfully, we are done. The join task now needs kicked either by mcast_send or mcast_restart_task or mcast_start_thread, but should not need started anytime else except when scheduling a backoff attempt to rejoin. 3) No longer use separate join/completion routines for regular and sendonly joins, pass them all through the same routine and just do the right thing based on the SENDONLY join flag. 4) Only try to join a SENDONLY join twice, then drop the packets and quit trying. We leave the mcast group in the list so that if we get a new packet, all that we have to do is queue up the packet and restart the join task and it will automatically try to join twice and then either send or flush the queue again.

Commit a9c8ba58 ("IPoIB: Fix usage of uninitialized multicast objects") added a new flag MCAST_JOIN_STARTED, but was not very strict in how it was used. We didn't always initialize the completion struct before we set the flag, and we didn't always call complete on the completion struct from all paths that complete it. And when we did complete it, sometimes we continued to touch the mcast entry after the completion, opening us up to possible use after free issues. This made it less than totally effective, and certainly made its use confusing. And in the flush function we would use the presence of this flag to signal that we should wait on the completion struct, but we never cleared this flag, ever. In order to make things clearer and aid in resolving the rtnl deadlock bug I've been chasing, I cleaned this up a bit. 1) Remove the MCAST_JOIN_STARTED flag entirely 2) Change MCAST_FLAG_BUSY so it now only means a join is in-flight 3) Test mcast->mc directly to see if we have completed ib_sa_join_multicast (using IS_ERR_OR_NULL) 4) Make sure that before setting MCAST_FLAG_BUSY we always initialize the mcast->done completion struct 5) Make sure that before calling complete(&mcast->done), we always clear the MCAST_FLAG_BUSY bit 6) Take the mcast_mutex before we call ib_sa_multicast_join and also take the mutex in our join callback. This forces ib_sa_multicast_join to return and set mcast->mc before we process the callback. This way, our callback can safely clear mcast->mc if there is an error on the join and we will do the right thing as a result in mcast_dev_flush. 7) Because we need the mutex to synchronize mcast->mc, we can no longer call mcast_sendonly_join directly from mcast_send and instead must add sendonly join processing to the mcast_join_task 8) Make MCAST_RUN mean that we have a working mcast subsystem, not that we have a running task. We know when we need to reschedule our join task thread and don't need a flag to tell us. 9) Add a helper for rescheduling the join task thread A number of different races are resolved with these changes. These races existed with the old MCAST_FLAG_BUSY usage, the MCAST_JOIN_STARTED flag was an attempt to address them, and while it helped, a determined effort could still trip things up. One race looks something like this: Thread 1 Thread 2 ib_sa_join_multicast (as part of running restart mcast task) alloc member call callback ifconfig ib0 down wait_for_completion callback call completes wait_for_completion in mcast_dev_flush completes mcast->mc is PTR_ERR_OR_NULL so we skip ib_sa_leave_multicast return from callback return from ib_sa_join_multicast set mcast->mc = return from ib_sa_multicast We now have a permanently unbalanced join/leave issue that trips up the refcounting in core/multicast.c Another like this: Thread 1 Thread 2 Thread 3 ib_sa_multicast_join ifconfig ib0 down priv->broadcast = NULL join_complete wait_for_completion mcast->mc is not yet set, so don't clear return from ib_sa_join_multicast and set mcast->mc complete return -EAGAIN (making mcast->mc invalid) call ib_sa_multicast_leave on invalid mcast->mc, hang forever By holding the mutex around ib_sa_multicast_join and taking the mutex early in the callback, we force mcast->mc to be valid at the time we run the callback. This allows us to clear mcast->mc if there is an error and the join is going to fail. We do this before we complete the mcast. In this way, mcast_dev_flush always sees consistent state in regards to mcast->mc membership at the time that the wait_for_completion() returns. Signed-off-by: NDoug Ledford <dledford@redhat.com>

During my recent work on the rtnl lock deadlock in the IPoIB driver, I saw that even once I fixed the apparent races for a single device, as soon as that device had any children, new races popped up. It turns out that this is because no matter how well we protect against races on a single device, the fact that all devices use the same workqueue, and flush_workqueue() flushes *everything* from that workqueue means that we would also have to prevent all races between different devices (for instance, ipoib_mcast_restart_task on interface ib0 can race with ipoib_mcast_flush_dev on interface ib0.8002, resulting in a deadlock on the rtnl_lock). There are several possible solutions to this problem: Make carrier_on_task and mcast_restart_task try to take the rtnl for some set period of time and if they fail, then bail. This runs the real risk of dropping work on the floor, which can end up being its own separate kind of deadlock. Set some global flag in the driver that says some device is in the middle of going down, letting all tasks know to bail. Again, this can drop work on the floor. Or the method this patch attempts to use, which is when we bring an interface up, create a workqueue specifically for that interface, so that when we take it back down, we are flushing only those tasks associated with our interface. In addition, keep the global workqueue, but now limit it to only flush tasks. In this way, the flush tasks can always flush the device specific work queues without having deadlock issues.

We blindly assume that we can just take the rtnl lock and that will prevent races with downing this interface. Unfortunately, that's not the case. In ipoib_mcast_stop_thread() we will call flush_workqueue() in an attempt to clear out all remaining instances of ipoib_join_task. But, since this task is put on the same workqueue as the join task, the flush_workqueue waits on this thread too. But this thread is deadlocked on the rtnl lock. The better thing here is to use trylock and loop on that until we either get the lock or we see that FLAG_OPER_UP has been cleared, in which case we don't need to do anything anyway and we just return. While investigating which flag should be used, FLAG_ADMIN_UP or FLAG_OPER_UP, it was determined that FLAG_OPER_UP was the more appropriate flag to use. However, there was a mix of these two flags in use in the existing code. So while we check for that flag here as part of this race fix, also cleanup the two places that had used the less appropriate flag for their tests. Signed-off-by: NDoug Ledford <dledford@redhat.com>

The ipoib_mcast_flush_dev routine is called with the rtnl_lock held and needs to keep it held. It also needs to call flush_workqueue() to flush out any outstanding work. In the past, we've had to try and make sure that we didn't flush out any outstanding join completions because they also wanted to grab rtnl_lock() and that would deadlock. It turns out that the only thing in the join completion handler that needs this lock can be safely moved to our carrier_on_task, thereby reducing the potential for the join completion code and the flush code to deadlock against each other.

Create a an ipoib_flush_ah and ipoib_stop_ah routines to use at appropriate times to flush out all remaining ah entries before we shut the device down. Because neighbors and mcast entries can each have a reference on any given ah, we must make sure to free all of those first before our ah will actually have a 0 refcount and be able to be reaped. This factoring is needed in preparation for having per-device work queues. The original per-device workqueue code resulted in the following error message: <ibdev>: ib_dealloc_pd failed That error was tracked down to this issue. With the changes to which workqueues were flushed when, there were no flushes of the per device workqueue after the last ah's were freed, resulting in an attempt to dealloc the pd with outstanding resources still allocated. This code puts the explicit flushes in the needed places to avoid that problem. Signed-off-by: NDoug Ledford <dledford@redhat.com>

Various places in the IPoIB code had a deadlock related to flushing the ipoib workqueue. Now that we have per device workqueues and a specific flush workqueue, there is no longer a deadlock issue with flushing the device specific workqueues and we can do so unilaterally.

We used to pass a flush variable to mcast_stop_thread to indicate if we should flush the workqueue or not. This was due to some code trying to flush a workqueue that it was currently running on which is a no-no. Now that we have per-device work queues, and now that ipoib_mcast_restart_task has taken the fact that it is queued on a single thread workqueue with all of the ipoib_mcast_join_task's and therefore has no need to stop the join task while it runs, we can do away with the flush parameter and unilaterally flush always.

During my recent work on the rtnl lock deadlock in the IPoIB driver, I saw that even once I fixed the apparent races for a single device, as soon as that device had any children, new races popped up. It turns out that this is because no matter how well we protect against races on a single device, the fact that all devices use the same workqueue, and flush_workqueue() flushes *everything* from that workqueue, we can have one device in the middle of a down and holding the rtnl lock and another totally unrelated device needing to run mcast_restart_task, which wants the rtnl lock and will loop trying to take it unless is sees its own FLAG_ADMIN_UP flag go away. Because the unrelated interface will never see its own ADMIN_UP flag drop, the interface going down will deadlock trying to flush the queue. There are several possible solutions to this problem: Make carrier_on_task and mcast_restart_task try to take the rtnl for some set period of time and if they fail, then bail. This runs the real risk of dropping work on the floor, which can end up being its own separate kind of deadlock. Set some global flag in the driver that says some device is in the middle of going down, letting all tasks know to bail. Again, this can drop work on the floor. I suppose if our own ADMIN_UP flag doesn't go away, then maybe after a few tries on the rtnl lock we can queue our own task back up as a delayed work and return and avoid dropping work on the floor that way. But I'm not 100% convinced that we won't cause other problems. Or the method this patch attempts to use, which is when we bring an interface up, create a workqueue specifically for that interface, so that when we take it back down, we are flushing only those tasks associated with our interface. In addition, keep the global workqueue, but now limit it to only flush tasks. In this way, the flush tasks can always flush the device specific work queues without having deadlock issues.

In preparation for using per device work queues, we need to move the start of the neighbor thread task to after ipoib_ib_dev_init and move the destruction of the neighbor task to before ipoib_ib_dev_cleanup. Otherwise we will end up freeing our workqueue with work possibly still on it. Signed-off-by: NDoug Ledford <dledford@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NRoland Dreier <roland@purestorage.com>

Our mcast_dev_flush routine and our mcast_restart_task can race against each other. In particular, they both hold the priv->lock while manipulating the rbtree and while removing mcast entries from the multicast_list and while adding entries to the remove_list, but they also both drop their locks prior to doing the actual removes. The mcast_dev_flush routine is run entirely under the rtnl lock and so has at least some locking. The actual race condition is like this: Thread 1 Thread 2 ifconfig ib0 up start multicast join for broadcast multicast join completes for broadcast start to add more multicast joins call mcast_restart_task to add new entries ifconfig ib0 down mcast_dev_flush mcast_leave(mcast A) mcast_leave(mcast A) As mcast_leave calls ib_sa_multicast_leave, and as member in core/multicast.c is ref counted, we run into an unbalanced refcount issue. To avoid stomping on each others removes, take the rtnl lock specifically when we are deleting the entries from the remove list.
