[PATCH 0/2] IB/core fixes for kernel v4.11-rc

[Bart Van Assche]

Hello Doug,

The following bugs have been reported against kernel v4.11-rc1:
* I/O MMU support for PCIe RDMA drivers is broken.
* s390 support for RDMA drivers is broken.

The two patches in this series address this. Please consider
these patches for kernel v4.11-rc.

Thanks,

Bart.

[PATCH 1/2] device: Stop requiring that struct device is embedded in struct pci_dev

[Bart Van Assche]

The dma mapping operations of several architectures and also of
several I/O MMU implementations need to translate a struct
device pointer into a struct pci_dev pointer. This translation
is performed by to_pci_dev(). That macro assumes that struct
device is embedded in struct pci_dev. However, that is not the
case for the device structure in struct ib_device. Since that
device structure is passed to DMA mapping operations since kernel
v4.11-rc1, introduce a pointer in struct device to make the
translation from struct device into struct pci_dev more flexible.

Compilation would break when CONFIG_PCI is not defined for some embedded platforms.
More than that, including specific pci_dev structure pointer in generic structure such as device just doesn't sound right.
I tested equivalent patch that you sent, but I don't think this is right direction to fix this bug.

You are welcome to voice your opinion. But unless anyone proposes a better
alternative I propose to proceed with this approach.

That's not how development happens.  You don't just do "here's a
something I came up with, if you don't like it, tough!"  If people
object, you need to resolve those objections, not ignore them.

Especially when you are breaking the build!!!

come on now, you know better than this.

Why can't ib subsystem pass device structure that is embedded in pci_dev when it makes calls to dma_map APIs?
The whole point of clean up was to avoid an if() condition in hot datapath.
If we invoke dma_map_ and friend functions with right device, shouldn't it work?
That avoids the if() condition as well and avoids changing core of Linux like done in this bug fix.
I think ib_device should store the right struct device pointer that needs to go to dma_apis, rather than including pci_dev structure pointer in device core 
layer.

Pseudo example code:
struct ib_device {
	struct device *dma_device;
};

ib_dma_unmap_single() which had if(), that got removed with dma_unmap_single() with cleanup patch.

Instead of,
static inline void ib_dma_unmap_single(struct ib_device *dev,
                                       u64 addr, size_t size,
                                       enum dma_data_direction direction)
{
	dma_unmap_single(&dev->dev, addr, size, direction);
}

Why can't we do this?

static inline void ib_dma_unmap_single(struct ib_device *dev,
                                       u64 addr, size_t size,
                                       enum dma_data_direction direction)
{
	dma_unmap_single(dev->dma_device, addr, size, direction);
}

This avoids increasing all device size by 8 bytes in system.
It also clean approach where core device structure doesn't have to bother for pci_dev.

Then don't blindly cast it backwards!  Fix that up, an ib device should
have access to the dma structures that the PCI device it depends on has.
If not, you need to set that up properly in the IB core, don't mess with
the driver core for this at all.

Somehow all other subsystems work just fine, don't instantly think that
the driver core needs to bend to the will of the IB code, because you
are somehow "special".  Hint, you aren't :)

Hi Greg,

In another e-mail Parav compared IB drivers with networking drivers. But I
think that's a bad comparison: in the networking stack it's the network
driver itself that sets up and triggers DMA while in the IB stack it's the
upper layer protocol (ULP) driver that calls the functions defined in struct
dma_ops. For some IB HW drivers (hfi1, qib and rdma_rxe) the ULP driver must
use the DMA mapping operations from lib/dma-virt.c while for all other IB HW
drivers the ULP driver must use the PCI DMA mapping functions. The ib_dma_*()
functions select the right DMA mapping operations - either the PCI DMA
mapping operations or those from lib/dma-virt.c. My question to you is how we
should organize struct ib_device such that we can get rid of the ib_dma_*()
helper functions. How to make sure that the to_pci_dev() translation works
correctly for the device structure that is embedded in struct ib_device?
Should a pointer to struct pci_dev be embedded in struct device (as done in
patch 1/2 in this series) or should the struct device in ib_device be changed
into a struct pci_dev and should the pci_dev information from
/sys/devices/pci*/*/* be duplicated into the pci_dev information in struct
ib_device (/sys/devices/pci*/*/*/infiniband/*)? For the latter approach, would
there be a risk that the duplicated information becomes inconsistent?

Thanks,

Bart.

Great, then notice that networking drivers don't need to do this type of
crud :)

I already said no to this, why do you think that it is still ok?

Ick, no.

I don't think you really thought that one through :)

No, it just wouldn't work :)

Why not just save off a pointer to your pci_dev in your ib_device
structure?  That way you know what the type is, and you have access to
everything you need.

But hey, I know nothing about IB and I really want to keep it that way.
You do what you want to, as long as you don't abuse the driver model,
like your patch 1/2 did.  Remember, not all the world is IB.

thanks,

Well what I compared is:
netdev has struct device and it also has underlying pci_dev based device.
ibdev has struct device and it also has underlying pci_dev based device.
So let us try to treat them in same way wherever possible and keep setup needed in ib drivers.

DMA mapping and allocation is done in different layer for its own reason unrelated to this change.
If rxe, qib, hfi1 point to right dma_device, can't we remove the ib_dma_*()?

I replied with pseudo code in previous reply to Bart to bring back dma_device member in the ib_device.
dma_device member was already present in near past of few weeks.
It should be able to work using it without performance impact and without touching driver core layer like in this patch.

That's confusing and was a source of bugs and inconsistencies. We do not
want two device structures in struct ib_device (struct device dev and struct
device *dma_device).

device dev represents, dev structure of the ib_device.
While dma_device is for the actual device as you know.

If you look at net_device, 
It has device dev.
vendor drivers store pci_dev pointer and access device of pci_dev etc.
Every net_device driver has to do that.

Ib_device simplifies that work for ib stack by storing dma_device.
I think this is less confusing.

Right, in his case, Bart, you can either pass the the struct device for
use for DMA to the ib devices, which is easy but a bit gross, or have
the ib core provide a set of dma_ops for the ib_device that are
"wrappers" calling back to the "parent" device.

Any struct device whose dma_ops haven't been setup by the architecture
core cannot be used for DMA as-is without such "reflector" dma_ops
provided by the creator of that struct device.

The architecture core only knows about some "directly" attached things
like PCI, some cases of platform devices etc... and has no way of
setting things up for subsystem specific thigns like ib_device.

Thus the subsystem must take care of it and provide its own dma_ops
that "reflect" the calls to the original parent device that was setup
by the architecture.

Cheers,
Ben.

[PATCH 2/2] IB/core: Restore I/O MMU, s390 and powerpc support

[Bart Van Assche]

Avoid that the following error message is reported on the console
while loading an RDMA driver with I/O MMU support enabled:

DMAR: Allocating domain for mlx5_0 failed

Ensure that DMA mapping operations that use to_pci_dev() to
access to struct pci_dev see the correct PCI device. E.g. the s390
and powerpc DMA mapping operations use to_pci_dev() even with I/O
MMU support disabled.
