<id>urn:sha1:43c6116573ca0f9fc907e6b46861f2f142acb33b</id>
<content type='text'>
While commit 7e36ef8205ff ("IB/core: Temporarily disable
ex_query_device uverb") is correct as it makes the extended
QUERY_DEVICE uverb (which came as part of commit 5a77abf9a97a
("IB/core: Add support for extended query device caps") and commit
860f10a799c8 ("IB/core: Add flags for on demand paging support")) not
available to userspace, it doesn't address the initial issue regarding
ib_copy_to_udata() [1][2].

Additionally, further discussions around this new uverb seems to
conclude it would require a different data structure than the one
currently described in &lt;rdma/ib_user_verbs.h&gt; [3].

Both of these issues require a revert of the changes, so this patch
partially reverts commit 8cdd312cfed7 ("IB/mlx5: Implement the ODP
capability query verb") and commit 860f10a799c8 ("IB/core: Add flags
for on demand paging support") and fully reverts commit 5a77abf9a97a
("IB/core: Add support for extended query device caps").

<title>IB/core: Implement support for MMU notifiers regarding on demand paging regions</title>

<id>urn:sha1:882214e2b12860bff1ccff15a3ec2bbb29d58c02</id>
<content type='text'>
* Add an interval tree implementation for ODP umems. Create an
  interval tree for each ucontext (including a count of the number of
  ODP MRs in this context, semaphore, etc.), and register ODP umems in
  the interval tree.
* Add MMU notifiers handling functions, using the interval tree to
  notify only the relevant umems and underlying MRs.
* Register to receive MMU notifier events from the MM subsystem upon
  ODP MR registration (and unregister accordingly).
* Add a completion object to synchronize the destruction of ODP umems.
* Add mechanism to abort page faults when there's a concurrent invalidation.

The way we synchronize between concurrent invalidations and page
faults is by keeping a counter of currently running invalidations, and
a sequence number that is incremented whenever an invalidation is
caught. The page fault code checks the counter and also verifies that
the sequence number hasn't progressed before it updates the umem's
page tables. This is similar to what the kvm module does.

In order to prevent the case where we register a umem in the middle of
an ongoing notifier, we also keep a per ucontext counter of the total
number of active mmu notifiers. We only enable new umems when all the
running notifiers complete.

* Extend the umem struct to keep the ODP related data.
* Allocate and initialize the ODP related information in the umem
  (page_list, dma_list) and freeing as needed in the end of the run.
* Store a reference to the process PID struct in the ucontext.  Used to
  safely obtain the task_struct and the mm during fault handling,
  without preventing the task destruction if needed.
* Add 2 helper functions: ib_umem_odp_map_dma_pages and
  ib_umem_odp_unmap_dma_pages. These functions get the DMA addresses
  of specific pages of the umem (and, currently, pin them).
* Support for page faults only - IB core will keep the reference on
  the pages used and call put_page when freeing an ODP umem
  area. Invalidations support will be added in a later patch.

* Add a configuration option for enable on-demand paging support in
  the infiniband subsystem (CONFIG_INFINIBAND_ON_DEMAND_PAGING). In a
  later patch, this configuration option will select the MMU_NOTIFIER
  configuration option to enable mmu notifiers.
* Add a flag for on demand paging (ODP) support in the IB device capabilities.
* Add a flag to request ODP MR in the access flags to reg_mr.
* Fail registrations done with the ODP flag when the low-level driver
  doesn't support this.
* Change the conditions in which an MR will be writable to explicitly
  specify the access flags.  This is to avoid making an MR writable just
  because it is an ODP MR.
* Add a ODP capabilities to the extended query device verb.

Add extensible query device capabilities verb to allow adding new features.
ib_uverbs_ex_query_device is added and copy_query_dev_fields is used to
copy capability fields to be used by both ib_uverbs_query_device and
ib_uverbs_ex_query_device.

<id>urn:sha1:78eda2bb6542057b214af3bc1cae09c63e65d1d1</id>
<content type='text'>
Expose more signature setting parameters. We modify the signature API
to allow usage of some new execution parameters relevant to data
integrity feature.

This patch modifies ib_sig_domain structure by:

- Deprecate DIF type in signature API (operation will
  be determined by the parameters alone, no DIF type awareness)
- Add APPTAG check bitmask (for input domain)
- Add REFTAG remap (increment) flag for each domain
- Add APPTAG/REFTAG escape options for each domain

The mlx5 driver is modified to follow the new parameters in HW
signature setup.

At the moment the callers (iser/isert) hard-code new parameters (by
DIF type). In the future, callers will retrieve them from the scsi
command structure.

Memory re-registration is a feature that enables changing the
attributes of a memory region registered by user-space, including PD,
translation (address and length) and access flags.

Add the required support in uverbs and the kernel verbs API.

ib_verbs.h header file but defined without it in verbs.c.  This gets rid
of the following sparse warnings:

<title>IB: Add a QP creation flag to use GFP_NOIO allocations</title>

<id>urn:sha1:09b93088d75009807b72293f26e2634430ce5ba9</id>
<content type='text'>
This addresses a problem where NFS client writes over IPoIB connected
mode may deadlock on memory allocation/writeback.

The problem is not directly memory reclamation.  There is an indirect
dependency between network filesystems writing back pages and
ipoib_cm_tx_init() due to how a kworker is used.  Page reclaim cannot
make forward progress until ipoib_cm_tx_init() succeeds and it is
stuck in page reclaim itself waiting for network transmission.
Ordinarily this situation may be avoided by having the caller use
GFP_NOFS but ipoib_cm_tx_init() does not have that information.

To address this, take a general approach and add a new QP creation
flag that tells the low-level hardware driver to use GFP_NOIO for the
memory allocations related to the new QP.

Use the new flag in the ipoib connected mode path, and if the driver
doesn't support it, re-issue the QP creation without the flag.
