Implement ib_create_flow() and ib_destroy_flow().
Translate the verbs structures provided by the user to HW structures
and call the MLX4_QP_FLOW_STEERING_ATTACH/DETACH firmware commands.
On the ATTACH command completion, the firmware provides a 64-bit
registration ID, which is placed into struct mlx4_ib_flow that wraps
the instance of struct ib_flow which is retuned to caller. Later,
this reg ID is used for detaching that flow from the firmware.

ConnectX-3 devices can use either 64- or 32-byte completion queue
entries (CQEs) and event queue entries (EQEs). Using 64-byte
EQEs/CQEs performs better because each entry is aligned to a complete
cacheline. This patch queries the HCA's capabilities, and if it
supports 64-byte CQEs and EQES the driver will configure the HW to
work in 64-byte mode.
The 32-byte vs 64-byte mode is global per HCA and not per CQ or EQ.
Since this mode is global, userspace (libmlx4) must be updated to work
with the configured CQE size, and guests using SR-IOV virtual
functions need to know both EQE and CQE size.
In case one of the 64-byte CQE/EQE capabilities is activated, the
patch makes sure that older guest drivers that use the QUERY_DEV_FUNC
command (e.g as done in mlx4_core of Linux 3.3..3.6) will notice that
they need an update to be able to work with the PPF. This is done by
changing the returned pf_context_behaviour not to be zero any more. In
case none of these capabilities is activated that value remains zero
and older guest drivers can run OK.
The SRIOV related flow is as follows
1. the PPF does the detection of the new capabilities using
QUERY_DEV_CAP command.
2. the PPF activates the new capabilities using INIT_HCA.
3. the VF detects if the PPF activated the capabilities using
QUERY_HCA, and if this is the case activates them for itself too.
Note that the VF detects that it must be aware to the new PF behaviour
using QUERY_FUNC_CAP. Steps 1 and 2 apply also for native mode.
User space notification is done through a new field introduced in
struct mlx4_ib_ucontext which holds device capabilities for which user
space must take action. This changes the binary interface so the ABI
towards libmlx4 exposed through uverbs is bumped from 3 to 4 but only
when **needed** i.e. only when the driver does use 64-byte CQEs or
future device capabilities which must be in sync by user space. This
practice allows to work with unmodified libmlx4 on older devices (e.g
A0, B0) which don't support 64-byte CQEs.
In order to keep existing systems functional when they update to a
newer kernel that contains these changes in VF and userspace ABI, a
module parameter enable_64b_cqe_eqe must be set to enable 64-byte
mode; the default is currently false.

This directory is added only for the master -- slaves do not have it.
The sysfs iov directory is used to manage and examine the port P_Key
and guid paravirtualization.
Under iov/ports, the administrator may examine the gid and P_Key tables
as they are present in the device (and as are seen in the "network
view" presented to the SM).
Under the iov/<pci slot number> directories, the admin may map the
index numbers in the physical tables (as under iov/ports) to the
paravirtualized index numbers that guests see.
For example, if the administrator, for port 1 on guest 2 maps physical
pkey index 10 to virtual index 1, then that guest, whenever it uses
its pkey index 1, will actually be using the real pkey index 10.

For IB ports, we paravirtualize the GUID at index 0 on slaves. The
GUID at index 0 seen by a slave is the actual GUID occupying the GUID
table at the slave-id index.
The driver, by default, requests at startup time that subnet manager
populate its entire guid table with GUIDs. These guids are then mapped
(paravirtualized) to the slaves, and appear for each slave as its GUID
at index 0.
Until each slave has such a guid, its port status is DOWN.
The guid table is cached to support special QP paravirtualization, and
event propagation to slaves on guid change (we test to see if the guid
really changed before propagating an event to the slave).
To support this caching, add capability to __mlx4_ib_query_gid() to
obtain the network view (i.e., physical view) gid at index X, not just
the host (paravirtualized) view.

In CM para-virtualization:
1. Incoming requests are steered to the correct vHCA according to the
embedded GID.
2. Communication IDs on outgoing requests are replaced by a globally
unique ID, generated by the PPF, since there is no synchronization
of ID generation between guests (and so these IDs are not
guaranteed to be globally unique). The guest's comm ID is stored,
and is returned to the response MAD when it arrives.

MCG paravirtualization support includes:
- Creating multicast groups by VFs, and keeping accounting of them
- Leaving multicast groups by VFs
- Updating SM only with real changes in the overall picture of MCGs status
- Creation of MGID=0 groups (let SM choose MGID)
Note that the MCG module maintains its own internal MCG object
reference counts. The reason for this is that the IB core is used to
track only the multicast groups joins generated by the PF it runs
over. The PF IB core layer is unaware of slaves, so it cannot be used
to keep track of MCG joins they generate.

The MAD_IFC firmware command fulfills two functions.
First, it is used in the QP0/QP1 MAD-handling flow to obtain
information from the FW (for answering queries), and for setting
variables in the HCA (MAD SET packets).
For this, MAD_IFC should provide the FW (physical) view of the data.
This is the view that OpenSM needs. We call this the "network view".
In the second case, MAD_IFC is used by various verbs to obtain data
regarding the local HCA (e.g., ib_query_device()). We call this the
"host view".
This data needs to be paravirtualized.
MAD_IFC therefore needs a wrapper function, and also needs another
flag indicating whether it should provide the network view (when it is
called by ib_process_mad in special-qp packet handling), or the host
view (when it is called while implementing a verb).
There are currently 2 flag parameters in mlx4_MAD_IFC already:
ignore_bkey and ignore_mkey. These two parameters are replaced by a
single "mad_ifc_flags" parameter, with different bits set for each
flag. A third flag is added: "network-view/host-view".

Allocate SR-IOV paravirtualization resources and MAD demuxing contexts
on the master.
This has two parts. The first part is to initialize the structures to
contain the contexts. This is done at master startup time in
mlx4_ib_init_sriov().
The second part is to actually create the tunneling resources required
on the master to support a slave. This is performed the master
detects that a slave has started up (MLX4_DEV_EVENT_SLAVE_INIT event
generated when a slave initializes its comm channel).
For the master, there is no such startup event, so it creates its own
tunneling resources when it starts up. In addition, the master also
creates the real special QPs. The ib_core layer on the master causes
creation of proxy special QPs, since the master is also
paravirtualized at the ib_core layer.

1. Introduce the basic SR-IOV parvirtualization context objects for
multiplexing and demultiplexing MADs.
2. Introduce support for the new proxy and tunnel QP types.
This patch introduces the objects required by the master for managing
QP paravirtualization for guests.
struct mlx4_ib_sriov is created by the master only.
It is a container for the following:
1. All the info required by the PPF to multiplex and de-multiplex MADs
(including those from the PF). (struct mlx4_ib_demux_ctx demux)
2. All the info required to manage alias GUIDs (i.e., the GUID at
index 0 that each guest perceives. In fact, this is not the GUID
which is actually at index 0, but is, in fact, the GUID which is at
index[<VF number>] in the physical table.
3. structures which are used to manage CM paravirtualization
4. structures for managing the real special QPs when running in SR-IOV
mode. The real SQPs are controlled by the PPF in this case. All
SQPs created and controlled by the ib core layer are proxy SQP.
struct mlx4_ib_demux_ctx contains the information per port needed
to manage paravirtualization:
1. All multicast paravirt info
2. All tunnel-qp paravirt info for the port.
3. GUID-table and GUID-prefix for the port
4. work queues.
struct mlx4_ib_demux_pv_ctx contains all the info for managing the
paravirtualized QPs for one slave/port.
struct mlx4_ib_demux_pv_qp contains the info need to run an individual
QP (either tunnel qp or real SQP).
Note: We made use of the 2 most significant bits in enum
mlx4_ib_qp_flags (based on enum ib_qp_create_flags in ib_verbs.h).
We need these bits in the low-level driver for internal purposes.

The port management change event can replace smp_snoop. If the
capability bit for this event is set in dev-caps, the event is used
(by the driver setting the PORT_MNG_CHG_EVENT bit in the async event
mask in the MAP_EQ fw command). In this case, when the driver passes
incoming SMP PORT_INFO SET mads to the FW, the FW generates port
management change events to signal any changes to the driver.
If the FW generates these events, smp_snoop shouldn't be invoked in
ib_process_mad(), or duplicate events will occur (once from the
FW-generated event, and once from smp_snoop).
In the case where the FW does not generate port management change
events smp_snoop needs to be invoked to create these events. The flow
in smp_snoop has been modified to make use of the same procedures as
in the fw-generated-event event case to generate the port management
events (LID change, Client-rereg, Pkey change, and/or GID change).
Port management change event handling required changing the
mlx4_ib_event and mlx4_dispatch_event prototypes; the "param" argument
(last argument) had to be changed to unsigned long in order to
accomodate passing the EQE pointer.
We also needed to move the definition of struct mlx4_eqe from
net/mlx4.h to file device.h -- to make it available to the IB driver,
to handle port management change events.

The driver is modified to support three operation modes.
If supported by firmware use the device managed flow steering
API, that which we call device managed steering mode. Else, if
the firmware supports the B0 steering mode use it, and finally,
if none of the above, use the A0 steering mode.
When the steering mode is device managed, the code is modified
such that L2 based rules set by the mlx4_en driver for Ethernet
unicast and multicast, and the IB stack multicast attach calls
done through the mlx4_ib driver are all routed to use the device
managed API.
When attaching rule using device managed flow steering API,
the firmware returns a 64 bit registration id, which is to be
provided during detach.
Currently the firmware is always programmed during HCA initialization
to use standard L2 hashing. Future work should be done to allow
configuring the flow-steering hash function with common, non
proprietary means.

2. Limit qp resources accepted for ib_create_qp() to the limits

limits returned to the caller following qp creation also lie within
the reported device limits. For userspace, report as before, and do
adjustment in libmlx4 (so as not to break ABI).

Add support for IBoE to mlx4_ib. The bulk of the code is handling the
new address vector fields; mlx4 needs the MAC address of a remote node
to include it in a WQE (for datagrams) or in the QP context (for
connected QPs). Address resolution is done by assuming all unicast
GIDs are either link-local IPv6 addresses.
Multicast group attach/detach needs to update the NIC's multicast
filters; but since attaching a QP to a multicast group can be done
before the QP is bound to a port, for IBoE we need to keep track of
all multicast groups that a QP is attached too before it transitions
from INIT to RTR (since it does not have a port in the INIT state).

Userspace apps are supposed to release all ib device resources if they
receive a fatal async event (IBV_EVENT_DEVICE_FATAL). However, the
app has no way of knowing when the device has come back up, except to
repeatedly attempt ibv_open_device() until it succeeds.
However, currently there is no protection against the open succeeding
while the device is in being removed following the fatal event. In
this case, the open will succeed, but as a result the device waits in
the middle of its removal until the new app releases its resources --
and the new app will not do so, since the open succeeded at a point
following the fatal event generation.
This patch adds an "active" flag to the device. The active flag is set
to false (in the fatal event flow) before the "fatal" event is
generated, so any subsequent ibv_dev_open() call to the device will
fail until the device comes back up, thus preventing the above
deadlock.

The low-level mlx4 driver modified the page-list addresses for fast
register work requests post send to big-endian, and set a "present"
bit. This caused problems later when the consumer attempted to unmap
the pages using the page-list (using the list addresses which were
assumed to be still in CPU-endian order). Fix the mlx4 driver to
allocate two buffers and use a private buffer for the hardware-format
bus addresses.

ConnectX HCA supports shrinking WQEs, so that a single work request
can be made of multiple units of wqe_shift. This way, WRs can differ
in size, and do not have to be a power of 2 in size, saving memory and
speeding up send WR posting. Unfortunately, if we do this then the
wqe_index field in CQEs can't be used to look up the WR ID anymore, so
our implementation does this only if selective signaling is off.
Further, on 32-bit platforms, we can't use vmap() to make the QP
buffer virtually contigious. Thus we have to use constant-sized WRs to
make sure a WR is always fully within a single page-sized chunk.
Finally, we use WRs with the NOP opcode to avoid wrapping around the
queue buffer in the middle of posting a WR, and we set the
NoErrorCompletion bit to avoid getting completions with error for NOP
WRs. However, NEC is only supported starting with firmware 2.2.232,
so we use constant-sized WRs for older firmware. And, since MLX QPs
only support SEND, we use constant-sized WRs in this case.
When stamping during NOP posting, do stamping following setting of the
NOP WQE valid bit.

New ConnectX firmware introduces FW command interface revision 2,
which requires that for each QP, a chunk of send queue entries (the
"headroom") is kept marked as invalid, so that the HCA doesn't get
confused if it prefetches entries that haven't been posted yet. Add
code to the driver to do this, and also update the user ABI so that
userspace can request that the prefetcher be turned off for userspace
QPs (we just leave the prefetcher on for all kernel QPs).
Unfortunately, marking send queue entries this way is confuses older
firmware, so we change the driver to allow only FW command interface
revisions 2. This means that users will have to update their firmware
to work with the new driver, but the firmware is changing quickly and
the old firmware has lots of other bugs anyway, so this shouldn't be too
big a deal.
