Subject: [PATCH v2 00/17] IB/Verbs: IB Management Helpers
Since v1:
* Apply suggestions from Doug, Ira, Jason, Tom, thanks for the comments :-)
and please remind me if I missed anything :-P
* Adopt new callback query_transport() to directly get the transport type
of device
* Reform a lot to adopt new management helpers, cleanup the old helpers
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.
TODO:
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 ;-)
Patches haven't been tested yet, we appreciate if any one who have these
HW willing to provide his Tested-by :-)
