Adopt the use of xprt_pin_rqst to eliminate contention between
Call-side users of rb_lock and the use of rb_lock in
rpcrdma_reply_handler.
This replaces the mechanism introduced in 431af645cf66 ("xprtrdma:
Fix client lock-up after application signal fires").
Use recv_lock to quickly find the completing rqst, pin it, then
drop the lock. At that point invalidation and pull-up of the Reply
XDR can be done. Both are often expensive operations.
Finally, take recv_lock again to signal completion to the RPC
layer. It also protects adjustment of "cwnd".
This greatly reduces the amount of time a lock is held by the
reply handler. Comparing lock_stat results shows a marked decrease
in contention on rb_lock and recv_lock.

Transport header decoding deals with untrusted input data, therefore
decoding this header needs to be hardened.
Adopt the same infrastructure that is used when XDR decoding NFS
replies. This is slightly more CPU-intensive than the replaced code,
but we're not adding new atomics, locking, or context switches. The
cost is manageable.
Start by initializing an xdr_stream in rpcrdma_reply_handler().

Some have complained about the log messages generated when xprtrdma
opens or closes a connection to a server. When an NFS mount is
mostly idle these can appear every few minutes as the client idles
out the connection and reconnects.
Connection and disconnection is a normal part of operation, and not
exceptional, so change these to dprintk's for now. At some point
all of these will be converted to tracepoints, but that's for
another day.

After a signal, the RPC client aborts synchronous RPCs running on
behalf of the signaled application.
The server is still executing those RPCs, and will write the results
back into the client's memory when it's done. By the time the server
writes the results, that memory is likely being used for other
purposes. Therefore xprtrdma has to immediately invalidate all
memory regions used by those aborted RPCs to prevent the server's
writes from clobbering that re-used memory.
With FMR memory registration, invalidation takes a relatively long
time. In fact, the invalidation is often still running when the
server tries to write the results into the memory regions that are
being invalidated.
This sets up a race between two processes:
1. After the signal, xprt_rdma_free calls ro_unmap_safe.
2. While ro_unmap_safe is still running, the server replies and
rpcrdma_reply_handler runs, calling ro_unmap_sync.
Both processes invoke ib_unmap_fmr on the same FMR.
The mlx4 driver allows two ib_unmap_fmr calls on the same FMR at
the same time, but HCAs generally don't tolerate this. Sometimes
this can result in a system crash.
If the HCA happens to survive, rpcrdma_reply_handler continues. It
removes the rpc_rqst from rq_list and releases the transport_lock.
This enables xprt_rdma_free to run in another process, and the
rpc_rqst is released while rpcrdma_reply_handler is still waiting
for the ib_unmap_fmr call to finish.
But further down in rpcrdma_reply_handler, the transport_lock is
taken again, and "rqst" is dereferenced. If "rqst" has already been
released, this triggers a general protection fault. Since bottom-
halves are disabled, the system locks up.
Address both issues by reversing the order of the xprt_lookup_rqst
call and the ro_unmap_sync call. Introduce a separate lookup
mechanism for rpcrdma_req's to enable calling ro_unmap_sync before
xprt_lookup_rqst. Now the handler takes the transport_lock once
and holds it for the XID lookup and RPC completion.

There are rare cases where an rpcrdma_req and its matched
rpcrdma_rep can be re-used, via rpcrdma_buffer_put, while the RPC
reply handler is still using that req. This is typically due to a
signal firing at just the wrong instant.
As part of closing this race window, avoid using the wrong
rpcrdma_rep to detect remotely invalidated MRs. Mark MRs as
invalidated while we are sure the rep is still OK to use.

The device driver for the underlying physical device associated
with an RPC-over-RDMA transport can be removed while RPC-over-RDMA
transports are still in use (ie, while NFS filesystems are still
mounted and active). The IB core performs a connection event upcall
to request that consumers free all RDMA resources associated with
a transport.
There may be pending RPCs when this occurs. Care must be taken to
release associated resources without leaving references that can
trigger a subsequent crash if a signal or soft timeout occurs. We
rely on the caller of the transport's ->close method to ensure that
the previous RPC task has invoked xprt_release but the transport
remains write-locked.
A DEVICE_REMOVE upcall forces a disconnect then sleeps. When ->close
is invoked, it destroys the transport's H/W resources, then wakes
the upcall, which completes and allows the core driver unload to
continue.

When the underlying device driver is reloaded, ia->ri_device will be
replaced. All cached copies of that device pointer have to be
updated as well.
Commit 54cbd6b0c6b9 ("xprtrdma: Delay DMA mapping Send and Receive
buffers") added the rg_device field to each regbuf. As part of
handling a device removal, rpcrdma_dma_unmap_regbuf is invoked on
all regbufs for a transport.
Simply calling rpcrdma_dma_map_regbuf for each Receive buffer after
the driver has been reloaded should reinitialize rg_device correctly
for every case except rpcrdma_wc_receive, which still uses
rpcrdma_rep::rr_device.
Ensure the same device that was used to map a Receive buffer is also
used to sync it in rpcrdma_wc_receive by using rg_device there
instead of rr_device.
This is the only use of rr_device, so it can be removed.
The use of regbufs in the send path is also updated, for
completeness.

New complaint from kbuild for 4.9.y:

I can't reproduce this running sparse here. Likewise, "make W=1

A little poking suggests that because the range of its values is
small, gcc can make the actual width of RPCRDMA_MAX_SEND_SGES

A server rejects a connection attempt with STALE_CONNECTION when a

Fix rpcrdma_conn_upcall() to distinguish between a normal rejection

As an additional clean-up, remove the code that retries the

The MAX_SEND_SGES check introduced in commit 655fec6987be
("xprtrdma: Use gathered Send for large inline messages") fails
for devices that have a small max_sge.
Instead of checking for a large fixed maximum number of SGEs,
check for a minimum small number. RPC-over-RDMA will switch to
using a Read chunk if an xdr_buf has more pages than can fit in
the device's max_sge limit. This is considerably better than
failing all together to mount the server.
This fix supports devices that have as few as three send SGEs
available.

Commit d5440e27d3e5 ("xprtrdma: Enable pad optimization") made the
Linux client omit XDR round-up padding in normal Read and Write
chunks so that the client doesn't have to register and invalidate
3-byte memory regions that contain no real data.
Unfortunately, my cheery 2014 assessment that this optimization "is
supported now by both Linux and Solaris servers" was premature.
We've found bugs in Solaris in this area since commit d5440e27d3e5
("xprtrdma: Enable pad optimization") was merged (SYMLINK is the
main offender).
So for maximum interoperability, I'm disabling this optimization
again. If a CM private message is exchanged when connecting, the
client recognizes that the server is Linux, and enables the
optimization for that connection.
Until now the Solaris server bugs did not impact common operations,
and were thus largely benign. Soon, less capable devices on Linux
NFS/RDMA clients will make use of Read chunks more often, and these
Solaris bugs will prevent interoperation in more cases.

Pad optimization is changed by echoing into
/proc/sys/sunrpc/rdma_pad_optimize. This is a global setting,
affecting all RPC-over-RDMA connections to all servers.
The marshaling code picks up that value and uses it for decisions
about how to construct each RPC-over-RDMA frame. Having it change
suddenly in mid-operation can result in unexpected failures. And
some servers a client mounts might need chunk round-up, while
others don't.
So instead, copy the pad_optimize setting into each connection's
rpcrdma_ia when the transport is created, and use the copy, which
can't change during the life of the connection, instead.
This also removes a hack: rpcrdma_convert_iovs was using
the remote-invalidation-expected flag to predict when it could leave
out Write chunk padding. This is because the Linux server handles
implicit XDR padding on Write chunks correctly, and only Linux
servers can set the connection's remote-invalidation-expected flag.
It's more sensible to use the pad optimization setting instead.

> ** CID 114101: Error handling issues (CHECKED_RETURN)

Commit 5675add36e76 ("RPC/RDMA: harden connection logic against
missing/late rdma_cm upcalls.") replaced wait_for_completion() calls
with these two call sites.
The original wait_for_completion() calls were added in the initial
commit of verbs.c, which was commit c56c65fb67d6 ("RPCRDMA: rpc rdma
verbs interface implementation"), but these returned void.
rpcrdma_create_id() is called by the RDMA connect worker, which
probably won't ever be interrupted. It is also called by
rpcrdma_ia_open which is in the synchronous mount path, and ^C is
possible there.
Add a bit of logic at those two call sites to return if the waits
return ERESTARTSYS.

Verbs providers may perform house-keeping on the Send Queue during
each signaled send completion. It is necessary therefore for a verbs
consumer (like xprtrdma) to occasionally force a signaled send
completion if it runs unsignaled most of the time.
xprtrdma does not require signaled completions for Send or FastReg
Work Requests, but does signal some LocalInv Work Requests. To
ensure that Send Queue house-keeping can run before the Send Queue
is more than half-consumed, xprtrdma forces a signaled completion
on occasion by counting the number of Send Queue Entries it
consumes. It currently does this by counting each ib_post_send as
one Entry.
Commit c9918ff56dfb ("xprtrdma: Add ro_unmap_sync method for FRWR")
introduced the ability for frwr_op_unmap_sync to post more than one
Work Request with a single post_send. Thus the underlying assumption
of one Send Queue Entry per ib_post_send is no longer true.
Also, FastReg Work Requests are currently never signaled. They
should be signaled once in a while, just as Send is, to keep the
accounting of consumed SQEs accurate.
While we're here, convert the CQCOUNT macros to the currently
preferred kernel coding style, which is inline functions.

An RPC Call message that is sent inline but that has a data payload
(ie, one or more items in rq_snd_buf's page list) must be "pulled
up:"
- call_allocate has to reserve enough RPC Call buffer space to
accommodate the data payload
- call_transmit has to memcopy the rq_snd_buf's page list and tail
into its head iovec before it is sent
As the inline threshold is increased beyond its current 1KB default,
however, this means data payloads of more than a few KB are copied
by the host CPU. For example, if the inline threshold is increased
just to 4KB, then NFS WRITE requests up to 4KB would involve a
memcpy of the NFS WRITE's payload data into the RPC Call buffer.
This is an undesirable amount of participation by the host CPU.
The inline threshold may be much larger than 4KB in the future,
after negotiation with a peer server.
Instead of copying the components of rq_snd_buf into its head iovec,
construct a gather list of these components, and send them all in
place. The same approach is already used in the Linux server's
RPC-over-RDMA reply path.
This mechanism also eliminates the need for rpcrdma_tail_pullup,
which is used to manage the XDR pad and trailing inline content when
a Read list is present.
This requires that the pages in rq_snd_buf's page list be DMA-mapped
during marshaling, and unmapped when a data-bearing RPC is
completed. This is slightly less efficient for very small I/O
payloads, but significantly more efficient as data payload size and
inline threshold increase past a kilobyte.

Send an RDMA-CM private message on connect, and look for one during
a connection-established event.
Both sides can communicate their various implementation limits.
Implementations that don't support this sideband protocol ignore it.
Once the client knows the server's inline threshold maxima, it can
adjust the use of Reply chunks, and eliminate most use of Position
Zero Read chunks. Moderately-sized I/O can be done using a pure
inline RDMA Send instead of RDMA operations that require memory
registration.

Currently, each regbuf is allocated and DMA mapped at the same time.
This is done during transport creation.
When a device driver is unloaded, every DMA-mapped buffer in use by
a transport has to be unmapped, and then remapped to the new
device if the driver is loaded again. Remapping will have to be done
_after_ the connect worker has set up the new device.
But there's an ordering problem:
call_allocate, which invokes xprt_rdma_allocate which calls
rpcrdma_alloc_regbuf to allocate Send buffers, happens _before_
the connect worker can run to set up the new device.
Instead, at transport creation, allocate each buffer, but leave it
unmapped. Once the RPC carries these buffers into ->send_request, by
which time a transport connection should have been established,
check to see that the RPC's buffers have been DMA mapped. If not,
map them there.
When device driver unplug support is added, it will simply unmap all
the transport's regbufs, but it doesn't have to deallocate the
underlying memory.

The use of DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL is discouraged by DMA-API.txt.
Fortunately, xprtrdma now knows which direction I/O is going as
soon as it allocates each regbuf.
The RPC Call and Reply buffers are no longer the same regbuf. They
can each be labeled correctly now. The RPC Reply buffer is never
part of either a Send or Receive WR, but it can be part of Reply
chunk, which is mapped and registered via ->ro_map . So it is not
DMA mapped when it is allocated (DMA_NONE), to avoid a double-
mapping.
Since Receive buffers are no longer DMA_BIDIRECTIONAL and their
contents are never modified by the host CPU, DMA-API-HOWTO.txt
suggests that a DMA sync before posting each buffer should be
unnecessary. (See my_card_interrupt_handler).

RPC-over-RDMA needs to separate its RPC call and reply buffers.
o When an RPC Call is sent, rq_snd_buf is DMA mapped for an RDMA
Send operation using DMA_TO_DEVICE
o If the client expects a large RPC reply, it DMA maps rq_rcv_buf
as part of a Reply chunk using DMA_FROM_DEVICE
The two mappings are for data movement in opposite directions.
DMA-API.txt suggests that if these mappings share a DMA cacheline,
bad things can happen. This could occur in the final bytes of
rq_snd_buf and the first bytes of rq_rcv_buf if the two buffers
happen to share a DMA cacheline.
On x86_64 the cacheline size is typically 8 bytes, and RPC call
messages are usually much smaller than the send buffer, so this
hasn't been a noticeable problem. But the DMA cacheline size can be
larger on other platforms.
Also, often rq_rcv_buf starts most of the way into a page, thus
an additional RDMA segment is needed to map and register the end of
that buffer. Try to avoid that scenario to reduce the cost of
registering and invalidating Reply chunks.
Instead of carrying a single regbuf that covers both rq_snd_buf and
rq_rcv_buf, each struct rpcrdma_req now carries one regbuf for
rq_snd_buf and one regbuf for rq_rcv_buf.
Some incidental changes worth noting:
- To clear out some spaghetti, refactor xprt_rdma_allocate.
- The value stored in rg_size is the same as the value stored in
the iov.length field, so eliminate rg_size

Currently there's a hidden and indirect mechanism for finding the
rpcrdma_req that goes with an rpc_rqst. It depends on getting from
the rq_buffer pointer in struct rpc_rqst to the struct
rpcrdma_regbuf that controls that buffer, and then to the struct
rpcrdma_req it goes with.
This was done back in the day to avoid the need to add a per-rqst
pointer or to alter the buf_free API when support for RPC-over-RDMA
was introduced.
I'm about to change the way regbuf's work to support larger inline
thresholds. Now is a good time to replace this indirect mechanism
with something that is more straightforward. I guess this should be
considered a clean up.

An RPC can terminate before its reply arrives, if a credential
problem or a soft timeout occurs. After this happens, xprtrdma
reports it is out of Receive buffers.
A Receive buffer is posted before each RPC is sent, and returned to
the buffer pool when a reply is received. If no reply is received
for an RPC, that Receive buffer remains posted. But xprtrdma tries
to post another when the next RPC is sent.
If this happens a few dozen times, there are no receive buffers left
to be posted at send time. I don't see a way for a transport
connection to recover at that point, and it will spit warnings and
unnecessarily delay RPCs on occasion for its remaining lifetime.
Commit 1e465fd4ff47 ("xprtrdma: Replace send and receive arrays")
removed a little bit of logic to detect this case and not provide
a Receive buffer so no more buffers are posted, and then transport
operation continues correctly. We didn't understand what that logic
did, and it wasn't commented, so it was removed as part of the
overhaul to support backchannel requests.
Restore it, but be wary of the need to keep extra Receives posted
to deal with backchannel requests.

Receive buffer exhaustion, if it were to actually occur, would be
catastrophic. However, when there are no reply buffers to post, that
means all of them have already been posted and are waiting for
incoming replies. By design, there can never be more RPCs in flight
than there are available receive buffers.
A receive buffer can be left posted after an RPC exits without a
received reply; say, due to a credential problem or a soft timeout.
This does not result in fewer posted receive buffers than there are
pending RPCs, and there is already logic in xprtrdma to deal
appropriately with this case.
It also looks like the "+ 2" that was removed was accidentally
accommodating the number of extra receive buffers needed for
receiving backchannel requests. That will need to be addressed by
another patch.

Instead of placing registered MWs sparsely into the rl_segments
array, place these MWs on a per-req list.
ro_unmap_{sync,safe} can then simply pull those MWs off the list
instead of walking through the array.
This change significantly reduces the size of struct rpcrdma_req
by removing nsegs and rl_mw from every array element.
As an additional clean-up, chunk co-ordinates are returned in the
"*mw" output argument so they are no longer needed in every
array element.

Frequent MR list exhaustion can impact I/O throughput, so enough MRs
are always created during transport set-up to prevent running out.
This means more MRs are created than most workloads need.
Commit 94f58c58c0b4 ("xprtrdma: Allow Read list and Reply chunk
simultaneously") introduced support for sending two chunk lists per
RPC, which consumes more MRs per RPC.
Instead of trying to provision more MRs, introduce a mechanism for
allocating MRs on demand. A few MRs are allocated during transport
set-up to kick things off.
This significantly reduces the average number of MRs per transport
while allowing the MR count to grow for workloads or devices that
need more MRs.
FRWR with mlx4 allocated almost 400 MRs per transport before this
patch. Now it starts with 32.

Commit c93c62231cf5 ("xprtrdma: Disconnect on registration failure")
added a disconnect for some RPC marshaling failures. This is needed
only in a handful of cases, but it was triggering for simple stuff
like temporary resource shortages. Try to straighten this out.
Fix up the lower layers so they don't return -ENOMEM or other error
codes that the RPC client's FSM doesn't explicitly recognize.
Also fix up the places in the send_request path that do want a
disconnect. For example, when ib_post_send or ib_post_recv fail,
this is a sign that there is a send or receive queue resource
miscalculation. That should be rare, and is a sign of a software
bug. But xprtrdma can recover: disconnect to reset the transport and
start over.

Not having an rpcrdma_rep at call_allocate time can be a problem.
It means that send_request can't post a receive buffer to catch
the RPC's reply. Possible consequences are RPC timeouts or even
transport deadlock.
Instead of allowing an RPC to proceed if an rpcrdma_rep is
not available, return NULL to force call_allocate to wait and
try again.
