The IB/core provides address resolution service and invokes callback handler when address resolve request completes of requester in worker thread context. Such caller might allocate or free memory in callback handler depending on the completion status to make further progress or to terminate a connection. Most ULPs resolve route which involves allocating route entry and path record elements in callback event handler. It has been noticed that WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag should not be used for workers that tend to allocate memory in this [1] thread discussion. In order to mitigate this situation, WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag was dropped for other such WQs in this [2] patch. Similar problem might arise with address resolution path, though its not yet noticed. The ib_addr workqueue is not memory reclaim path due to its nature of invoking callback that might allocate memory or don't free any memory under memory pressure.

This patch fixes the case where 'lifespan' entry of the hw_counters is not writable. Currently write callback is not exposed for for the hw_counters sysfs operation. Due to this, modifying lifespan value results into permission denied error in below example. echo 10 > /sys/class/infiniband/mlx5_0/ports/1/hw_counters/lifespan -bash: /sys/class/infiniband/mlx5_0/ports/1/hw_counters/lifespan: Permission denied This patch adds the hook to modify any attribute which implements store() operation.

Since IB/core resolves the destination mac address for user and kernel consumers, avoid resolving in multiple provider drivers. Only ib_core resolves DMAC now, therefore resolve_eth_dmac is removed as exported symbol.

Introduce rdma_create_user_ah API which allows passing udata to provider driver and additionally which resolves DMAC for RoCE. ib_resolve_eth_dmac() resolves destination mac address for unicast, multicast, link local ipv4 mapped ipv6 and ipv6 destination gid entry. This allows all RoCE provider drivers to avoid duplicating such code. Such change brings consistency where IB core always resolves dmac and pass it to RoCE provider drivers for user and kernel consumers, with this ah_attr->roce.dmac is always an input field for provider drivers. This uniformity avoids exporting ib_resolve_eth_dmac symbol to providers or other modules. Therefore its removed as exported symbol at later in the patch series. Now uverbs and umad both makes use of rdma_create_user_ah API which fixes the issue where umad has invalid DMAC for address.

Merge tag 'mlx5-updates-2017-10-11' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mellanox/linux into mlnx-shared mlx5-updates-2017-10-11: IPoIB Muli Pkey support This series provides the support for IPoIB Multi Pkey. InfiniBand Pkeys are the equivalent of Ethernet vlans. Currently IPoIB device driver supports only default Pkey and IPoIB Pkey child interfaces are not supported with IPoIB offloads mode, this series will add the support for that by allowing creating mlx5 multiple IPoIB netdevices with a non-default Pkey. mlx5 IPoIB Pkey child interface is smaller version of mlx5i IPoIB interfaces and shares most of its resources with the parent IPoIB interface, namely RX steering and ring queue resources. The only mlx5 resources a child Pkey interface will be creating are the TX rings, since they should be assigned to a specific Pkey. mlx5i Pkey netdev is implemented via new mlx5e netdev profile implemented in mlx5/core/ipoib/ipoib_vlan.c. The series starts with a refactoring of mlx5e PTP and mlx5 clock implementation to move the code to be part of mlx5 core rather than mlx5e netdevice, in order to make mlx5 clock and PTP registration part of the core to be shared with mlx5e master Ethernet netdev/IPoIB parent netdev and mlx5_ib in the near future. Add the support for attaching multiple underlay QPs for the different Pkeys in mlx5 core RX steering. Add Pkey index to rdma_netdev to add the ability to set PKEY index to lower IPoIB offload netdev. Use hash-table to map between DQPN (Destination QP number) to child netdev for the IPoIB parent netdev to forward RX packets to the corresponding child Pkey netdev, since the RX rings are shared. The reset of the series adds the ipoib child Pkey: mlx5e netdev profile, netdev nods implementation and minimal set of ethtool callbacks. Thanks, Saeed.

Resources such as FT, QPN HT and mdev resources should be allocated only by parent netdev. Shared resources are allocated and freed by the parent interface since the parent is always present and created before the IPoIB PKEY sub-interface.

Child interface profile will be called to support child interface specific behaviour. The child code is sparse compared to the parent since the RX channels are shared between the interfaces.

This change is needed for PKEY support, since the RQs are shared between the child interface and the parent. The parent is responsible for NAPI and the precessing of RX completions. Using the dqpn in the completion descriptor we set the corresponding child IPoIB netdevice on the SKB. The mapping between the dqpn and the netdevice is done using a HT, each mlx5 IPoIB interface registers its mapping on creation.

Previous support allowed connecting only a single QPN to the FT. Now using a linked list multiple QPNs can be attached to the same FT. Supporting attaching multiple underlay QPs is required for PKEY support in which child and parent share the same FT. The actual attaching/detaching FW commands will be called inside the function symmetrically. This change requires a change in IPoIB open and close functions, the attaching/detaching to/from the FT is done each time we open/close.

Unfortunately there is no easy fix. 2) The risk of breakage is minimal because it's already broken 3) As 4.14 is a long term stable kernel, I prefer to have working watchdog code in that and the lockdep issues resolved. I wouldn't ask you to pull if 4.14 wouldn't be a LTS kernel or if the solution would be easy to backport. 4) The series was around before the merge window opened, but then got delayed due to the UP failure caused by the for_each_cpu() surprise which we discussed recently. Changes vs. V1: - Addressed your review points - Addressed the warning in the powerpc code which was discovered late - Changed two function names which made sense up to a certain point in the series.

We trap and emulate some instructions (e.g, mrs, deprecated instructions) for the userspace. However the handlers for these are registered as late_initcalls and the userspace could be up and running from the initramfs by that time (with populate_rootfs, which is a rootfs_initcall()). This could cause problems for the early applications ending up in failure like : [ 11.152061] modprobe[93]: undefined instruction: pc=0000ffff8ca48ff4 This patch promotes the specific calls to core_initcalls, which are guaranteed to be completed before we hit userspace.

Memory hot unplug on PowerNV radix hosts is broken. Our memory block size is 256MB but since we map the linear region with very large pages, each pte we tear down maps 1GB. A hot unplug of one 256MB memory block results in 768MB of memory getting unintentionally unmapped. At this point we are likely to oops. Fix this by increasing our memory block size to 1GB on PowerNV radix hosts.
