The create_flow/destroy_flow uverbs and the associated extensions to
the user-kernel verbs ABI are under review and are too experimental to
freeze at this point.
So userspace is not exposed to experimental features and an uinstable
ABI, temporarily disable this for v3.12 (with a Kconfig option behind
staging to reenable it if desired).
The feature will be enabled after proper cleanup for v3.13.

Add infrastructure to support extended uverbs capabilities in a
forward/backward manner. Uverbs command opcodes which are based on
the verbs extensions approach should be greater or equal to
IB_USER_VERBS_CMD_THRESHOLD. They have new header format and
processed a bit differently.
Whenever a specific IB_USER_VERBS_CMD_XXX is extended, which practically means
it needs to have additional arguments, we will be able to add them without creating
a completely new IB_USER_VERBS_CMD_YYY command or bumping the uverbs ABI version.
This patch for itself doesn't provide the whole scheme which is also dependent
on adding a comp_mask field to each extended uverbs command struct.
The new header framework allows for future extension of the CMD arguments
(ib_uverbs_cmd_hdr.in_words, ib_uverbs_cmd_hdr.out_words) for an existing
new command (that is a command that supports the new uverbs command header format
suggested in this patch) w/o bumping ABI version and with maintaining backward
and formward compatibility to new and old libibverbs versions.
In the uverbs command we are passing both uverbs arguments and the provider arguments.
We split the ib_uverbs_cmd_hdr.in_words to ib_uverbs_cmd_hdr.in_words which will now carry only
uverbs input argument struct size and ib_uverbs_cmd_hdr.provider_in_words that will carry
the provider input argument size. Same goes for the response (the uverbs CMD output argument).
For example take the create_cq call and the mlx4_ib provider:
The uverbs layer gets libibverb's struct ibv_create_cq (named struct ib_uverbs_create_cq
in the kernel), mlx4_ib gets libmlx4's struct mlx4_create_cq (which includes struct
ibv_create_cq and is named struct mlx4_ib_create_cq in the kernel) and
in_words = sizeof(mlx4_create_cq)/4 .
Thus ib_uverbs_cmd_hdr.in_words carry both uverbs plus mlx4_ib input argument sizes,
where uverbs assumes it knows the size of its input argument - struct ibv_create_cq.
Now, if we wish to add a variable to struct ibv_create_cq, we can add a comp_mask field
to the struct which is basically bit field indicating which fields exists in the struct
(as done for the libibverbs API extension), but we need a way to tell what is the total
size of the struct and not assume the struct size is predefined (since we may get different
struct sizes from different user libibverbs versions). So we know at which point the
provider input argument (struct mlx4_create_cq) begins. Same goes for extending the
provider struct mlx4_create_cq. Thus we split the ib_uverbs_cmd_hdr.in_words to
ib_uverbs_cmd_hdr.in_words which will now carry only uverbs input argument struct size and
ib_uverbs_cmd_hdr.provider_in_words that will carry the provider (mlx4_ib) input argument size.

Several RDMA user-access drivers have file_operations structures with
no .llseek method set. None of the drivers actually do anything with
f_pos, so this means llseek is essentially a NOP, instead of returning
an error as leaving other file_operations methods unimplemented would
do. This is mostly harmless, except that a NULL .llseek means that
default_llseek() is used, and this function grabs the BKL, which we
would like to avoid.
Since llseek does nothing useful on these files, we would like it to
return an error to userspace instead of silently grabbing the BKL and
succeeding. For nearly all of the file types, we take the
belt-and-suspenders approach of setting the .llseek method to
no_llseek and also calling nonseekable_open(); the exception is the
uverbs_event files, which are created with anon_inode_getfile(), which
already sets f_mode the same way as nonseekable_open() would.
This work is motivated by Arnd Bergmann's bkl-removal tree.

implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h
percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Passing the attribute to the low level IO functions allows all kinds
of cleanups, by sharing low level IO code without requiring
an own function for every piece of data.
Also drivers can extend the attributes with own data fields
and use that in the low level function.
This makes the class attributes the same as sysdev_class attributes
and plain attributes.
This will allow further cleanups in drivers.

Some large systems may support more than IB_UVERBS_MAX_DEVICES
(currently 32).
This change allows us to support more devices in a backwards-compatible
manner. The first IB_UVERBS_MAX_DEVICES keep the same major/minor
device numbers that they've always had.
If there are more than IB_UVERBS_MAX_DEVICES, we then dynamically
request a new major device number (new minors start at 0).
This change increases the maximum number of HCAs to 64 (from 32).

This change increases the size of struct ib_uverbs_device to 168 bytes
across 3 cachelines from 80 bytes in 2 cachelines. However, we
rearrange the members so that everything fits into the first cacheline
except for the struct cdev. Finally, we don't touch the cdev in any

Since the original commit 883a99c7 ("[IB] uverbs: Add a mask of device

commands not implemented by a specific low-level driver.
This creates a problem that there is no way to tell the difference

incorrectly invoked (which also returns EINVAL).
The fix is to have unimplemented commands return ENOSYS.

Export ib_umem_get()/ib_umem_release() and put low-level drivers in
control of when to call ib_umem_get() to pin and DMA map userspace,
rather than always calling it in ib_uverbs_reg_mr() before calling the
low-level driver's reg_user_mr method.
Also move these functions to be in the ib_core module instead of
ib_uverbs, so that driver modules using them do not depend on
ib_uverbs.
This has a number of advantages:
- It is better design from the standpoint of making generic code a
library that can be used or overridden by device-specific code as
the details of specific devices dictate.
- Drivers that do not need to pin userspace memory regions do not
need to take the performance hit of calling ib_mem_get(). For
example, although I have not tried to implement it in this patch,
the ipath driver should be able to avoid pinning memory and just
use copy_{to,from}_user() to access userspace memory regions.
- Buffers that need special mapping treatment can be identified by
the low-level driver. For example, it may be possible to solve
some Altix-specific memory ordering issues with mthca CQs in
userspace by mapping CQ buffers with extra flags.
- Drivers that need to pin and DMA map userspace memory for things
other than memory regions can use ib_umem_get() directly, instead
of hacks using extra parameters to their reg_phys_mr method. For
example, the mlx4 driver that is pending being merged needs to pin
and DMA map QP and CQ buffers, but it does not need to create a
memory key for these buffers. So the cleanest solution is for mlx4
to call ib_umem_get() in the create_qp and create_cq methods.

Add a num_comp_vectors member to struct ib_device and extend
ib_create_cq() to pass in a comp_vector parameter -- this parallels
the userspace libibverbs API. Update all hardware drivers to set
num_comp_vectors to 1 and have all ULPs pass 0 for the comp_vector
value. Pass the value of num_comp_vectors to userspace rather than
hard-coding a value of 1.
We want multiple CQ event vector support (via MSI-X or similar for
adapters that can generate multiple interrupts), but it's not clear
how many vectors we want, or how we want to deal with policy issues
such as how to decide which vector to use or how to set up interrupt
affinity. This patch is useful for experimenting, since no core
changes will be necessary when updating a driver to support multiple
vectors, and we know that we want to make at least these changes
anyway.
