As proposed by the SRP (draft) standard, ib_srp reserves one ring
element for SRP_TSK_MGMT requests. This patch makes sure that the SCSI
mid-layer never tries to queue more than (SRP request limit) - 1 SCSI
commands to ib_srp. This improves performance for targets whose request
limit is less than or equal to SRP_NORMAL_REQ_SQ_SIZE by reducing the
number of BUSY responses reported by ib_srp to the SCSI mid-layer.

This patch adds support for SRP_CRED_REQ to avoid a lockup by targets
that use that mechanism to return credits to the initiator. This
prevents a lockup observed in the field where we would never add the
credits from the SRP_CRED_REQ to our current count, and would therefore
never send another command to the target.
Minimal support for SRP_AER_REQ is also added, as these messages can
also be used to convey additional credits to the initiator.

IGMP processing is broken because the IPOIB does not set the
skb->pkt_type the right way for multicast traffic. All incoming
packets are set to PACKET_HOST which means that igmp_recv() will
ignore the IGMP broadcasts/multicasts.
This in turn means that the IGMP timers are firing and are sending

The current strategy in ib_srp for posting receive buffers is:
* Post one buffer after channel establishment.
* Post one buffer before sending an SRP_CMD or SRP_TSK_MGMT to the target.
As a result, only the first non-SRP_RSP information unit from the
target will be processed. If that first information unit is an
SRP_T_LOGOUT, it will be processed. On the other hand, if the
initiator receives an SRP_CRED_REQ or SRP_AER_REQ before it receives a
SRP_T_LOGOUT, the SRP_T_LOGOUT won't be processed.
We can fix this inconsistency by changing the strategy for posting
receive buffers to:
* Post all receive buffers after channel establishment.
* After a receive buffer has been consumed and processed, post it again.
A side effect is that the ib_post_recv() call is moved out of the SCSI
command processing path. Since __srp_post_recv() is not called
directly any more, get rid of it and move the code directly into
srp_post_recv(). Also, move srp_post_recv() up in the file to avoid a
forward declaration.

The iser connection teardown flow isn't over until the underlying
Connection Manager (e.g the IB CM) delivers a disconnected or timeout
event through the RDMA-CM. When the remote (target) side isn't
reachable, e.g when some HW e.g port/hca/switch isn't functioning or
taken down administratively, the CM timeout flow is used and the event
may be generated only after relatively long time -- on the order of
tens of seconds.
The current iser code exposes this possibly long delay to higher
layers, specifically to the iscsid daemon and iscsi kernel stack. As a
result, the iscsi stack doesn't respond well: this low-level CM delay
is added to the fail-over time under HA schemes such as the one
provided by DM multipath through the multipathd(8) service.
This patch enhances the reference counting scheme on iser's IB
connections so that the disconnect flow initiated by iscsid from user
space (ep_disconnect) doesn't wait for the CM to deliver the
disconnect/timeout event. (The connection teardown isn't done from
iser's view point until the event is delivered)
The iser ib (rdma) connection object is destroyed when its reference
count reaches zero. When this happens on the RDMA-CM callback
context, extra care is taken so that the RDMA-CM does the actual
destroying of the associated ID, since doing it in the callback is
prohibited.
The reference count of iser ib connection normally reaches three,
where the <ref, deref> relations are
1. conn <init, terminate>
2. conn <bind, stop/destroy>
3. cma id <create, disconnect/error/timeout callbacks>
With this patch, multipath fail-over time is about 30 seconds, while
without this patch, multipath fail-over time is about 130 seconds.

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.
percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.
http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py
The script does the followings.
* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.
* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.
* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.
The conversion was done in the following steps.
1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.
2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.
3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.
4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.
5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.
6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.
7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).
* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig
8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.
Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

The IPoIB UD QP reports send completions to priv->send_cq, which is
usually left unarmed; it only gets armed when the number of
outstanding send requests reaches the size of the TX queue. This
arming is done only in the send path for the UD QP. However, when
sending CM packets, the net queue may be stopped for the same reasons
but no measures are taken to recover the UD path from a lockup.
Consider this scenario: a host sends high rate of both CM and UD
packets, with a TX queue length of N. If at some time the number of
outstanding UD packets is more than N/2 and the overall outstanding
packets is N-1, and CM sends a packet (making the number of
outstanding sends equal N), the TX queue will be stopped. When all
the CM packets complete, the number of outstanding packets will still
be higher than N/2 so the TX queue will not be restarted.
Fix this by calling ib_req_notify_cq() when the queue is stopped in
the CM path.

IPoIB can miss a change in destination GID under some conditions. The
problem is caused when ipoib_neigh->dgid contains a stale address.
The fix is to set ipoib_neigh->dgid to zero in ipoib_neigh_alloc().
This can happen when a system using bonding on its IPoIB interfaces
has switched its active interface from interface A to B and back to A.
The system that fails over will not correctly processes the 2nd
address change, as described below.
When an address has changed neighbor->ha is updated with the new
address. Each neighbor has an associated ipoib_neigh.
ipoib_neigh->dgid also holds a copy of the remote node's hardware
address. When an address changes neighbor->ha is updated by the
network layer (arp code) with the new address. IPoIB detects this
change in ipoib_start_xmit() by comparing neighbor->ha with
ipoib_neigh->dgid. The bug is that ipoib_neigh->dgid may already
contain the new address (A) thus the change from B to A is missed by
ipoib. Here is the sequence of events:
ipoib_neigh->dgid = A and neighbor->ha = A
The address is switched to B (the first switch)
neighbor->ha = B
The change is seen in ipoib_start_xmit() -- neighbor->ha !=
ipoib_neigh->dgid so ipoib_neigh is released, and a new one is
allocated.
The allocator may return the same chunk of memory that was just
released, therefore ipoib_neigh->dgid still contains A at this point.
ipoib_neigh->dgid should be updated in neigh_add_path(), but if the
following conditions are true dgid is not updated:
1) __path_find() returns a path
2) path->ah is NULL
The remote system now switches from address B to A, neighbor->ha is
updated to A.
Now we have again : ipoib_neigh->dgid = A and neighbor->ha = A
Since the addresses are the same ipoib won't process the change in
address. Fix this by zeroing out the dgid field when allocating a new
struct ipoib_neigh.

Multicast joins can succeed even if the IB port is down. This happens
when the SM runs on the same port with the requesting port. However,
IPoIB calls netif_carrier_on() when the join of the broadcast group
succeeds, without caring about the state of the IB port. The result
is an IPoIB interface in RUNNING state but without an active IB port
to support it.
If a bonding interface uses this IPoIB interface as a slave it might
not detect that this slave is almost useless and failover
functionality will be damaged. The fix checks the state of the IB
port in the carrier_task before calling netif_carrier_on().
