Subject: [PATCH v6 00/26] IB/Verbs: IB Management Helpers
Since v5:
* Thanks to Ira, Devesh for the review and testing :-)
* Thanks for the comments from Steve, Tom, Jason, Hal, Devesh, Ira,
Liran, Jason, Dave :-) Please remind me if anything missed :-P
* Trivial fix for 4#
* Drop the reform on acquiring link-layer in 9#
* Drop cap_ipoib()
There are plenty of lengthy code to check the transport type of IB device,
or the link layer type of it's port, but actually we are just speculating
whether a particular management/feature is supported by the device/port.
Thus instead of inferring, we should have our own mechanism for IB management
capability/protocol/feature checking, several proposals below.
This patch set will reform the method of getting transport type, we will
now using query_transport() instead of inferring from transport and link
layer respectively, also we defined the new transport type to make the
concept more reasonable.
Mapping List:
node-type link-layer old-transport new-transport
nes RNIC ETH IWARP IWARP
amso1100 RNIC ETH IWARP IWARP
cxgb3 RNIC ETH IWARP IWARP
cxgb4 RNIC ETH IWARP IWARP
usnic USNIC_UDP ETH USNIC_UDP USNIC_UDP
ocrdma IB_CA ETH IB IBOE
mlx4 IB_CA IB/ETH IB IB/IBOE
mlx5 IB_CA IB IB IB
ehca IB_CA IB IB IB
ipath IB_CA IB IB IB
mthca IB_CA IB IB IB
qib IB_CA IB IB IB
For example:
if (transport == IB) && (link-layer == ETH)
will now become:
if (query_transport() == IBOE)
Thus we will be able to get rid of the respective transport and link-layer
checking, and it will help us to add new protocol/Technology (like OPA) more
easier, also with the introduced management helpers, IB management logical
will be more clear and easier for extending.
Highlights:
The patch set covered a wide range of IB stuff, thus for those who are
familiar with the particular part, your suggestion would be invaluable ;-)
Patch 1#~15# included all the logical reform, 16#~25# introduced the
management helpers, 26#~27# do clean up.
we appreciate for those one who have the HW willing to provide Tested-by :-)
Doug suggested the bitmask mechanism:
https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-rdma@vger.kernel.org/msg23765.html
which could be the plan for future reforming, we prefer that to be another
series which focus on semantic and performance.
This patch-set is somewhat 'bloated' now and it may be a good timing for
staging, I'd like to suggest we focus on improving existed helpers and push
all the further reforms into next series ;-)
We now have a repository based on latest infiniband/for-next with this
series applied:
