Expose the service ID on an incoming CM or SIDR request to the event handler. This will allow the RDMA CM module to de-multiplex connection requests based on the information encoded in the service ID.

Implement the get_net_device_by_port_pkey_ip callback that returns network device to ib_core according to connection parameters. Check the ipoib device and iterate over all child devices to look for a match. For each IPoIB device we iterate through all upper devices when searching for a matching IP, in order to support bonding.

Yotam Kenneth authored
In the case of IPoIB, and maybe in other cases, the network device is managed by an upper-layer protocol (ULP). In order to expose this network device to other users of the IB device, let ULPs implement a callback that returns network device according to connection parameters. The IB device and port, together with the P_Key and the GID should be enough to uniquely identify the ULP net device. However, in current kernels there can be multiple IPoIB interfaces created with the same GID. Furthermore, such configuration may be desireable to support ipvlan-like configurations for RDMA CM with IPoIB. To resolve the device in these cases the code will also take the IP address as an additional input.

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.

Currently the RDMA subsystem's device list and client list are protected by a single mutex. This prevents adding user-facing APIs that iterate these lists, since using them may cause a deadlock. The patch attempts to solve this problem by adding a read-write semaphore to protect the lists. Readers now don't need the mutex, and are safe just by read-locking the semaphore. The ib_register_device, ib_register_client, ib_unregister_device, and ib_unregister_client functions are modified to lock the semaphore for write during their respective list modification. Also, in order to make sure client callbacks are called only between add() and remove() calls, the code is changed to only add items to the lists after the add() calls and remove from the lists before the remove() calls. This patch attempts to solve a similar need [1] that was seen in the RoCE v2 patch series.

Create the rdma directory in the staging area for use as we deprecate some older drivers and as we bring in some new drivers that are in need of work. Update the MAINTAINERS file so that updates to these files go to linux-rdma@vger.kernel.org. Expected lifespan of this directory is three releases for any deprecated drivers moved here and an unknown, but theoretically bounded amount of time for the new drivers as a new core RDMA transfer library needs to be written and the drivers modified to use it in order for them to move out of this directory.

Resolving a link-local IPv6 address with an unspecified source address was broken by commit 5462eddd, which prevented the IPv6 stack from learning the scope id of the link-local IPv6 address, causing random failures as the IP stack chose a random link to resolve the address on. This commit 5462eddd made us bail out of cma_check_linklocal early if the address passed in was not an IPv6 link-local address. On the address resolution path, the address passed in is the source address; if the source address is the unspecified address, which is not link-local, we will bail out early. This is mostly correct, but if the destination address is a link-local address, then we will be following a link-local route, and we'll need to tell the IPv6 stack what the scope id of the destination address is. This used to be done by last line of cma_check_linklocal, which is skipped when bailing out early: dev_addr->bound_dev_if = sin6->sin6_scope_id; (In cma_bind_addr, the sin6_scope_id of the source address is set to the sin6_scope_id of the destination address, so this is correct) This line is required in turn for the following line, L279 of addr6_resolve, to actually inform the IPv6 stack of the scope id: fl6.flowi6_oif = addr->bound_dev_if; Since we can only know we are in this failure case when we have access to both the source IPv6 address and destination IPv6 address, we have to deal with this further up the stack. So detect this failure case in cma_bind_addr, and set bound_dev_if to the destination address scope id to correct it.

Commit c48a11c7 ("netvm: propagate page->pfmemalloc to skb") added checks for page->pfmemalloc to __skb_fill_page_desc(): if (page->pfmemalloc && !page->mapping) skb->pfmemalloc = true; It assumes page->mapping == NULL implies that page->pfmemalloc can be trusted. However, __delete_from_page_cache() can set set page->mapping to NULL and leave page->index value alone. Due to being in union, a non-zero page->index will be interpreted as true page->pfmemalloc. So the assumption is invalid if the networking code can see such a page. And it seems it can. We have encountered this with a NFS over loopback setup when such a page is attached to a new skbuf. There is no copying going on in this case so the page confuses __skb_fill_page_desc which interprets the index as pfmemalloc flag and the network stack drops packets that have been allocated using the reserves unless they are to be queued on sockets handling the swapping which is the case here and that leads to hangs when the nfs client waits for a response from the server which has been dropped and thus never arrive. The struct page is already heavily packed so rather than finding another hole to put it in, let's do a trick instead. We can reuse the index again but define it to an impossible value (-1UL). This is the page index so it should never see the value that large. Replace all direct users of page->pfmemalloc by page_is_pfmemalloc which will hide this nastiness from unspoiled eyes. The information will get lost if somebody wants to use page->index obviously but that was the case before and the original code expected that the information should be persisted somewhere else if that is really needed (e.g. what SLAB and SLUB do).

Pull PCI fixes from Bjorn Helgaas: "These are fixes for ASPM-related NULL pointer dereference crashes on Sparc and PowerPC and 64-bit PCI address-related HPMC crashes on PA-RISC. These are both caused by things we merged in the v4.2 merge window. Details: Resource management - Don't use 64-bit bus addresses on PA-RISC Miscellaneous - Tolerate hierarchies with no Root Port" * tag 'pci-v4.2-fixes-2' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/helgaas/pci: PCI: Don't use 64-bit bus addresses on PA-RISC PCI: Tolerate hierarchies with no Root Port

Pull media fixes from Mauro Carvalho Chehab: - a regression fix at the videobuf2 core driver - fix error handling at mantis probing code - revert the IR encode patches, as the API is not mature enough. So, better to postpone the changes to a latter Kernel - fix Kconfig breakages on some randconfig scenarios. * tag 'media/v4.2-3' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mchehab/linux-media: [media] mantis: Fix error handling in mantis_dma_init() Revert "[media] rc: rc-ir-raw: Add scancode encoder callback" Revert "[media] rc: rc-ir-raw: Add Manchester encoder (phase encoder) helper" Revert "[media] rc: ir-rc5-decoder: Add encode capability" Revert "[media] rc: ir-rc6-decoder: Add encode capability" Revert "[media] rc: rc-core: Add support for encode_wakeup drivers" Revert "[media] rc: rc-loopback: Add loopback of filter scancodes" Revert "[media] rc: nuvoton-cir: Add support for writing wakeup samples via sysfs filter callback" [media] vb2: Fix compilation breakage when !CONFIG_BUG [media] vb2: Only requeue buffers immediately once streaming is started [media] media/pci/cobalt: fix Kconfig and build when SND is not enabled [media] media/dvb: fix ts2020.c Kconfig and build
