Get rid of the completion wait in svc_rdma_sendto(), and release
pages in the send completion handler again. A subsequent patch will
handle releasing those pages more efficiently.
Reverted by hand: patch -R would not apply cleanly.

The physical device's favored NUMA node ID is available when
allocating a recv_ctxt. Use that value instead of relying on the
assumption that the memory allocation happens to be running on a
node close to the device.
This clean up eliminates the hack of destroying recv_ctxts that
were not created by the receive CQ thread -- recv_ctxts are now
always allocated on a "good" node.

Since the ->xprt_ctxt pointer was added to svc_deferred_req, it has not
been sufficient to use kfree() to free a deferred request. We may need
to free the ctxt as well.
As freeing the ctxt is all that ->xpo_release_rqst() does, we repurpose
it to explicit do that even when the ctxt is not stored in an rqst.
So we now have ->xpo_release_ctxt() which is given an xprt and a ctxt,
which may have been taken either from an rqst or from a dreq. The
caller is now responsible for clearing that pointer after the call to
->xpo_release_ctxt.
We also clear dr->xprt_ctxt when the ctxt is moved into a new rqst when
revisiting a deferred request. This ensures there is only one pointer
to the ctxt, so the risk of double freeing in future is reduced. The
new code in svc_xprt_release which releases both the ctxt and any
rq_deferred depends on this.

Relieve contention on sc_rw_ctxt_lock by converting rdma->sc_rw_ctxts

The goal is to reduce the average overhead of Send completions,
because a transport's completion handlers are single-threaded on

/proc/lock_stat indicates the the sc_send_lock is heavily
contended when the server is under load from a single client.
To address this, convert the send_ctxt free list to an llist.
Returning an item to the send_ctxt cache is now waitless, which
reduces the instruction path length in the single-threaded Send
handler (svc_rdma_wc_send).
The goal is to enable the ib_comp_wq worker to handle a higher
RPC/RDMA Send completion rate given the same CPU resources. This
change reduces CPU utilization of Send completion by 2-3% on my

Because wake_up() takes an IRQ-safe lock, it can be expensive,
especially to call inside of a single-threaded completion handler.
What's more, the Send wait queue almost never has waiters, so
most of the time, this is an expensive no-op.
As always, the goal is to reduce the average overhead of each
completion, because a transport's completion handlers are single-
threaded on one CPU core. This change reduces CPU utilization of
the Send completion thread by 2-3% on my server.

Currently svc_rdma_sendto() migrates xdr_buf pages into a separate
page list and NULLs out a bunch of entries in rq_pages while the
pages are under I/O. The Send completion handler then frees those
pages later.
Instead, let's wait for the Send completion, then handle page
releasing in the nfsd thread. I'd like to avoid the cost of 250+
put_page() calls in the Send completion handler, which is single-
threaded.

I tested commit 43042b90cae1 ("svcrdma: Reduce Receive doorbell
rate") with mlx4 (IB) and software iWARP and didn't find any
issues. However, I recently got my hardware iWARP setup back on
line (FastLinQ) and it's crashing hard on this commit (confirmed
via bisect).
The failure mode is complex.
- After a connection is established, the first Receive completes
normally.
- But the second and third Receives have garbage in their Receive
buffers. The server responds with ERR_VERS as a result.
- When the client tears down the connection to retry, a couple
of posted Receives flush twice, and that corrupts the recv_ctxt
free list.
- __svc_rdma_free then faults or loops infinitely while destroying
the xprt's recv_ctxts.
Since 43042b90cae1 ("svcrdma: Reduce Receive doorbell rate") does
not fix a bug but is a scalability enhancement, it's safe and
appropriate to revert it while working on a replacement.

This simple data structure binds the location of each data payload
inside of an RPC message to the chunk that will be used to push it
to or pull it from the client.
There are several benefits to this small additional overhead:
* It enables support for more than one chunk in incoming Read and
Write lists.
* It translates the version-specific on-the-wire format into a
generic in-memory structure, enabling support for multiple
versions of the RPC/RDMA transport protocol.
* It enables the server to re-organize a chunk list if it needs to
adjust where Read chunk data lands in server memory without
altering the contents of the XDR-encoded Receive buffer.
Construction of these lists is done while sanity checking each
incoming RPC/RDMA header. Subsequent patches will make use of the
generated data structures.

The only RPC/RDMA ordering requirement between RDMA Writes and RDMA
Sends is that the responder must post the Writes on the Send queue
before posting the Send that conveys the RPC Reply for that Write
payload.
The Linux NFS server implementation now has a transport method that
can post result Payload Writes earlier than svc_rdma_sendto:
->xpo_result_payload()
This gets RDMA Writes going earlier so they are more likely to be
complete at the remote end before the Send completes.
Some care must be taken with pulled-up Replies. We don't want to
push the Write chunk and then send the same payload data via Send.

Way back when I was writing the RPC/RDMA server-side backchannel
code, I misread the TCP backchannel reply handler logic. When
svc_tcp_recvfrom() successfully receives a backchannel reply, it
does not return -EAGAIN. It sets XPT_DATA and returns zero.
Update svc_rdma_recvfrom() to return zero. Here, XPT_DATA doesn't
need to be set again: it is set whenever a new message is received,
behind a spin lock in a single threaded context.
Also, if handling the cb reply is not successful, the message is
simply dropped. There's no special message framing to deal with as
there is in the TCP case.
Now that the handle_bc_reply() return value is ignored, I've removed
the dprintk call sites in the error exit of handle_bc_reply() in
favor of trace points in other areas that already report the error
cases.

Utilize the xpo_release_rqst transport method to ensure that each
rqstp's svc_rdma_recv_ctxt object is released even when the server
cannot return a Reply for that rqstp.
Without this fix, each RPC whose Reply cannot be sent leaks one
svc_rdma_recv_ctxt. This is a 2.5KB structure, a 4KB DMA-mapped
Receive buffer, and any pages that might be part of the Reply
message.
The leak is infrequent unless the network fabric is unreliable or
Kerberos is in use, as GSS sequence window overruns, which result
in connection loss, are more common on fast transports.

On some platforms, DMA mapping part of a page is more costly than
copying bytes. Indeed, not involving the I/O MMU can help the
RPC/RDMA transport scale better for tiny I/Os across more RDMA
devices. This is because interaction with the I/O MMU is eliminated
for each of these small I/Os. Without the explicit unmapping, the
NIC no longer needs to do a costly internal TLB shoot down for
buffers that are just a handful of bytes.
Since pull-up is now a more a frequent operation, I've introduced a
trace point in the pull-up path. It can be used for debugging or
user-space tools that count pull-up frequency.

The logic that checks incoming network headers has to be scrupulous.
De-duplicate: replace open-coded buffer overflow checks with the use
of xdr_stream helpers that are used most everywhere else XDR
decoding is done.
One minor change to the sanity checks: instead of checking the
length of individual segments, cap the length of the whole chunk
to be sure it can fit in the set of pages available in rq_pages.
This should be a better test of whether the server can handle the
chunks in each request.

svcrdma expects that the payload falls precisely into the xdr_buf
page vector. This does not seem to be the case for
nfsd4_encode_readv().
This code is called only when fops->splice_read is missing or when
RQ_SPLICE_OK is clear, so it's not a noticeable problem in many
common cases.
Add new transport method: ->xpo_read_payload so that when a READ
payload does not fit exactly in rq_res's page vector, the XDR
encoder can inform the RPC transport exactly where that payload is,
without the payload's XDR pad.
That way, when a Write chunk is present, the transport knows what
byte range in the Reply message is supposed to be matched with the
chunk.
Note that the Linux NFS server implementation of NFS/RDMA can
currently handle only one Write chunk per RPC-over-RDMA message.
This simplifies the implementation of this fix.
