Or Gerlitz 08ff32352d mlx4: 64-byte CQE/EQE support
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.

Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo 4cce66cdd1 mlx4_en: map entire pages to increase throughput
In its receive path, mlx4_en driver maps each page chunk that it pushes
to the hardware and unmaps it when pushing it up the stack. This limits
throughput to about 3Gbps on a Power7 8-core machine.

One solution is to map the entire allocated page at once. However, this
requires that we keep track of every page fragment we give to a
descriptor. We also need to work with the discipline that all fragments will
be released (in the sense that it will not be reused by the driver
anymore) in the order they are allocated to the driver.

This requires that we don't reuse any fragments, every single one of
them must be reallocated. We do that by releasing all the fragments that
are processed and only after finished processing the descriptors, we
start the refill.

We also must somehow guarantee that we either refill all fragments in a
descriptor or none at all, without resorting to giving up a page
fragment that we would have already given. Otherwise, we would break the
discipline of only releasing the fragments in the order they were
allocated.

This has passed page allocation fault injections (restricted to the
driver by using required-start and required-end) and device hotplug
while 16 TCP streams were able to deliver more than 9Gbps.

Amir Vadai 1eb8c695bd net/mlx4_en: Add accelerated RFS support
Use RFS infrastructure and flow steering in HW to keep CPU
affinity of rx interrupts and application per TCP stream.

A flow steering filter is added to the HW whenever the RFS
ndo callback is invoked by core networking code.

Because the invocation takes place in interrupt context, the
actual setup of HW is done using workqueue. Whenever new filter
is added, the driver checks for expiry of existing filters.

Since there's window in time between the point where the core
RFS code invoked the ndo callback, to the point where the HW
is configured from the workqueue context, the 2nd, 3rd etc
packets from that stream will cause the net core to invoke
the callback again and again.

To prevent inefficient/double configuration of the HW, the filters
are kept in a database which is indexed using hash function to enable
fast access.

Hadar Hen Zion cabdc8ee37 net/mlx4_en: Add support for drop action through ethtool
The drop action is implemented by allocating a QP and keeping it in a reset state

Amir Vadai 0e98b523c4 net/mlx4_en: Force user priority by QP attribute
Instead of relying on HW to change schedule queue by UP, schedule
queue is fixed for a tx_ring, and UP in WQE is ignored in this aspect.  This
resolves two issues with untagged traffic:
1. untagged traffic has no UP in packet which is needed for QoS. The change
   above allows setting the schedule queue (and by that the UP) of such a stream.
2. BlueFlame uses the same field used by vlan tag. So forcing UP from QPC
   allows using BF for untagged but prioritized traffic.

In old firmware that force UP is not supported, untagged traffic will not subject to
QoS.

Because UP is set by QP, need to always have a tx ring per UP, even if pfcrx
module paramter is false.

The keys used for the hardware RSS topelitz hash are of type __be32
where the values provided by the driver are from array of u32,
this triggered sparse warning on incorrect type in assignment as of different base types.
Since these values are picked randomly,
the fix is to transform the key to __be32 by executing cpu_to_be_32()

The fixes had most impact when testing packet rate with small packets,
reducing several % from CPU load, and in some case being the difference

Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo 7e2eb99cc6 mlx4: fix DMA mapping leak when allocation fails
mlx4_en_prepare_rx_desc does not correctly clean up after it finds an
allocation failure. It should unmap a page before calling put_page, but
it only calls the later.

This bug would prevent a device removal using hotplug after setting the
device MTU to 9000 and opening the network interface. After the fix, we
still see the allocation failure with MTU 9000, but we are able to
remove the device.

Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo 68355f7113 mlx4: allow device removal by fixing dma unmap size
After opening the network interface, Mellanox ConnectX device cannot be
removed by hotplug because it has not properly unmapped all DMA memory.

It happens that mlx4_en_activate_rx_rings overrides the variable that
keeps the size of the memory mapped.

This is fixed by passing to mlx4_en_destroy_rx_ring the same size that is
given to mlx4_en_create_rx_ring.

After applying this patch, hot unplugging the device works after opening
the interface.
