      IB/mlx5: Implement fragmented completion queue (CQ) · 388ca8be
      Yonatan Cohen authored
      The current implementation of create CQ requires contiguous
      memory, such requirement is problematic once the memory is
      fragmented or the system is low in memory, it causes for
      failures in dma_zalloc_coherent().
      
      This patch implements new scheme of fragmented CQ to overcome
      this issue by introducing new type: 'struct mlx5_frag_buf_ctrl'
      to allocate fragmented buffers, rather than contiguous ones.
      
      Base the Completion Queues (CQs) on this new fragmented buffer.
      
      It fixes following crashes:
      kworker/29:0: page allocation failure: order:6, mode:0x80d0

      net/mlx5: Remove redundant EQ API exports · 3ec5693b
      Saeed Mahameed authored
      EQ structure and API is private to mlx5_core driver only, external
      drivers should not have access or the means to manipulate EQ objects.
      
      Remove redundant exports and move API functions out of the linux/mlx5
      include directory into the driver's mlx5_core.h private include file.

      net/mlx5: Move CQ completion and event forwarding logic to eq.c · 3ac7afdb
      Saeed Mahameed authored
      Since CQ tree is now per EQ, CQ completion and event forwarding became
      specific implementation of EQ logic, this patch moves that logic to eq.c
      and makes those functions static.

      net/mlx5: CQ Database per EQ · 02d92f79
      Saeed Mahameed authored
      Before this patch the driver had one CQ database protected via one
      spinlock, this spinlock is meant to synchronize between CQ
      adding/removing and CQ IRQ interrupt handling.
      
      On a system with large number of CPUs and on a work load that requires
      lots of interrupts, this global spinlock becomes a very nasty hotspot
      and introduces a contention between the active cores, which will
      significantly hurt performance and becomes a bottleneck that prevents
      seamless cpu scaling.
      
      To solve this we simply move the CQ database and its spinlock to be per
      EQ (IRQ), thus per core.
      
      Tested with:
      system: 2 sockets, 14 cores per socket, hyperthreading, 2x14x2=56 cores
      netperf command: ./super_netperf 200 -P 0 -t TCP_RR  -H <server> -l 30 -- -r 300,300 -o -s 1M,1M -S 1M,1M

      unify {de,}mangle_poll(), get rid of kernel-side POLL... · 7a163b21

      except, again, POLLFREE and POLL_BUSY_LOOP.
      
      With this, we finally get to the promised end result:
      
       - POLL{IN,OUT,...} are plain integers and *not* in __poll_t, so any
         stray instances of ->poll() still using those will be caught by
         sparse.
      
       - eventpoll.c and select.c warning-free wrt __poll_t
      
       - no more kernel-side definitions of POLL... - userland ones are
         visible through the entire kernel (and used pretty much only for
         mangle/demangle)
      
       - same behavior as after the first series (i.e. sparc et.al. epoll(2)
         working correctly).

      vfs: do bulk POLL* -> EPOLL* replacement · a9a08845
      Linus Torvalds authored
      This is the mindless scripted replacement of kernel use of POLL*
      variables as described by Al, done by this script:
      
          for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
              L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`
              for f in $L; do sed -i "-es/^\([^\"]*\)\(\<POLL$V\>\)/\\1E\\2/" $f; done
          done
      
      with de-mangling cleanups yet to come.
      
      NOTE! On almost all architectures, the EPOLL* constants have the same
      values as the POLL* constants do.  But they keyword here is "almost".
      For various bad reasons they aren't the same, and epoll() doesn't
      actually work quite correctly in some cases due to this on Sparc et al.
      
      The next patch from Al will sort out the final differences, and we
      should be all done.

      Pull more poll annotation updates from Al Viro:
       "This is preparation to solving the problems you've mentioned in the
        original poll series.
      
        After this series, the kernel is ready for running
      
            for V in IN OUT PRI ERR RDNORM RDBAND WRNORM WRBAND HUP RDHUP NVAL MSG; do
                  L=`git grep -l -w POLL$V | grep -v '^t' | grep -v /um/ | grep -v '^sa' | grep -v '/poll.h$'|grep -v '^D'`

            done
      
        as a for bulk search-and-replace.
      
        After that, the kernel is ready to apply the patch to unify
        {de,}mangle_poll(), and then get rid of kernel-side POLL... uses
        entirely, and we should be all done with that stuff.
      
        Basically, that's what you suggested wrt KPOLL..., except that we can
        use EPOLL... instead - they already are arch-independent (and equal to
        what is currently kernel-side POLL...).
      
        After the preparations (in this series) switch to returning EPOLL...
        from ->poll() instances is completely mechanical and kernel-side
        POLL... can go away. The last step (killing kernel-side POLL... and
        unifying {de,}mangle_poll() has to be done after the
        search-and-replace job, since we need userland-side POLL... for
        unified {de,}mangle_poll(), thus the cherry-pick at the last step.
      
        After that we will have:
      
         - POLL{IN,OUT,...} *not* in __poll_t, so any stray instances of
           ->poll() still using those will be caught by sparse.
      
         - eventpoll.c and select.c warning-free wrt __poll_t
      
         - no more kernel-side definitions of POLL... - userland ones are
           visible through the entire kernel (and used pretty much only for
           mangle/demangle)
      
         - same behavior as after the first series (i.e. sparc et.al. epoll(2)
           working correctly)"
