First, refactor: Dereference the svc_rdma_send_ctxt inside
svc_rdma_send() instead of at every call site.
Then, it can be passed into trace_svcrdma_post_send() to get the
proper completion ID.

Way back when I was writing the RPC/RDMA server-side backchannel
code, I misread the TCP backchannel reply handler logic. When
svc_tcp_recvfrom() successfully receives a backchannel reply, it
does not return -EAGAIN. It sets XPT_DATA and returns zero.
Update svc_rdma_recvfrom() to return zero. Here, XPT_DATA doesn't
need to be set again: it is set whenever a new message is received,
behind a spin lock in a single threaded context.
Also, if handling the cb reply is not successful, the message is
simply dropped. There's no special message framing to deal with as
there is in the TCP case.
Now that the handle_bc_reply() return value is ignored, I've removed
the dprintk call sites in the error exit of handle_bc_reply() in
favor of trace points in other areas that already report the error
cases.

Utilize the xpo_release_rqst transport method to ensure that each
rqstp's svc_rdma_recv_ctxt object is released even when the server
cannot return a Reply for that rqstp.
Without this fix, each RPC whose Reply cannot be sent leaks one
svc_rdma_recv_ctxt. This is a 2.5KB structure, a 4KB DMA-mapped
Receive buffer, and any pages that might be part of the Reply
message.
The leak is infrequent unless the network fabric is unreliable or
Kerberos is in use, as GSS sequence window overruns, which result
in connection loss, are more common on fast transports.

On some platforms, DMA mapping part of a page is more costly than
copying bytes. Indeed, not involving the I/O MMU can help the
RPC/RDMA transport scale better for tiny I/Os across more RDMA
devices. This is because interaction with the I/O MMU is eliminated
for each of these small I/Os. Without the explicit unmapping, the
NIC no longer needs to do a costly internal TLB shoot down for
buffers that are just a handful of bytes.
Since pull-up is now a more a frequent operation, I've introduced a
trace point in the pull-up path. It can be used for debugging or
user-space tools that count pull-up frequency.

Same idea as the receive-side changes I did a while back: use

The logic that checks incoming network headers has to be scrupulous.
De-duplicate: replace open-coded buffer overflow checks with the use
of xdr_stream helpers that are used most everywhere else XDR
decoding is done.
One minor change to the sanity checks: instead of checking the
length of individual segments, cap the length of the whole chunk
to be sure it can fit in the set of pages available in rq_pages.
This should be a better test of whether the server can handle the
chunks in each request.

svcrdma expects that the payload falls precisely into the xdr_buf
page vector. This does not seem to be the case for
nfsd4_encode_readv().
This code is called only when fops->splice_read is missing or when
RQ_SPLICE_OK is clear, so it's not a noticeable problem in many
common cases.
Add new transport method: ->xpo_read_payload so that when a READ
payload does not fit exactly in rq_res's page vector, the XDR
encoder can inform the RPC transport exactly where that payload is,
without the payload's XDR pad.
That way, when a Write chunk is present, the transport knows what
byte range in the Reply message is supposed to be matched with the
chunk.
Note that the Linux NFS server implementation of NFS/RDMA can
currently handle only one Write chunk per RPC-over-RDMA message.
This simplifies the implementation of this fix.

While sending each RPC Reply, svc_rdma_sendto allocates and DMA-
maps a separate buffer where the RPC/RDMA transport header is
constructed. The buffer is unmapped and released in the Send
completion handler. This is significant per-RPC overhead,
especially for small RPCs.
Instead, allocate and DMA-map a buffer, and cache it in each
svc_rdma_send_ctxt. This buffer and its mapping can be re-used
for each RPC, saving the cost of memory allocation and DMA
mapping.

Receive buffers are always the same size, but each Send WR has a
variable number of SGEs, based on the contents of the xdr_buf being
sent.
While assembling a Send WR, keep track of the number of SGEs so that
we don't exceed the device's maximum, or walk off the end of the
Send SGE array.
For now the Send path just fails if it exceeds the maximum.
The current logic in svc_rdma_accept bases the maximum number of
Send SGEs on the largest NFS request that can be sent or received.
In the transport layer, the limit is actually based on the
capabilities of the underlying device, not on properties of the
Upper Layer Protocol.

svc_rdma_op_ctxt's are pre-allocated and maintained on a per-xprt
free list. This eliminates the overhead of calling kmalloc / kfree,
both of which grab a globally shared lock that disables interrupts.
Introduce a replacement to svc_rdma_op_ctxt's that is built
especially for the svcrdma Send path.
Subsequent patches will take advantage of this new structure by
allocating real resources which are then cached in these objects.
The allocations are freed when the transport is torn down.
I've renamed the structure so that static type checking can be used
to ensure that uses of op_ctxt and send_ctxt are not confused. As an
additional clean up, structure fields are renamed to conform with
kernel coding conventions.
Additional clean ups:
- Handle svc_rdma_send_ctxt_get allocation failure at each call
site, rather than pre-allocating and hoping we guessed correctly
- All send_ctxt_put call-sites request page freeing, so remove
the @free_pages argument
- All send_ctxt_put call-sites unmap SGEs, so fold that into

There is a significant latency penalty when processing an ingress
Receive if the Receive buffer resides in memory that is not on the
same NUMA node as the the CPU handling completions for a CQ.
The system administrator and the device driver determine which CPU
handles completions. This CPU does not change during life of the CQ.
Further the Upper Layer does not have any visibility of which CPU it
is.
Allocating Receive buffers in the Receive completion handler
guarantees that Receive buffers are allocated on the preferred NUMA
node for that CQ.

The current Receive path uses an array of pages which are allocated
and DMA mapped when each Receive WR is posted, and then handed off
to the upper layer in rqstp::rq_arg. The page flip releases unused
pages in the rq_pages pagelist. This mechanism introduces a
significant amount of overhead.
So instead, kmalloc the Receive buffer, and leave it DMA-mapped
while the transport remains connected. This confers a number of
benefits:
* Each Receive WR requires only one receive SGE, no matter how large
the inline threshold is. This helps the server-side NFS/RDMA
transport operate on less capable RDMA devices.
* The Receive buffer is left allocated and mapped all the time. This
relieves svc_rdma_post_recv from the overhead of allocating and
DMA-mapping a fresh buffer.
* svc_rdma_wc_receive no longer has to DMA unmap the Receive buffer.
It has to DMA sync only the number of bytes that were received.
* svc_rdma_build_arg_xdr no longer has to free a page in rq_pages
for each page in the Receive buffer, making it a constant-time
function.
* The Receive buffer is now plugged directly into the rq_arg's
head[0].iov_vec, and can be larger than a page without spilling
over into rq_arg's page list. This enables simplification of
the RDMA Read path in subsequent patches.

Currently svc_rdma_recv_ctxt_put's callers have to know whether they
want to free the ctxt's pages or not. This means the human
developers have to know when and why to set that free_pages
argument.
Instead, the ctxt should carry that information with it so that
svc_rdma_recv_ctxt_put does the right thing no matter who is
calling.
We want to keep track of the number of pages in the Receive buffer
separately from the number of pages pulled over by RDMA Read. This
is so that the correct number of pages can be freed properly and
that number is well-documented.
So now, rc_hdr_count is the number of pages consumed by head[0]
(ie., the page index where the Read chunk should start); and
rc_page_count is always the number of pages that need to be released
when the ctxt is put.
The @free_pages argument is no longer needed.

The target needs to return the lesser of the client's Inbound RDMA
Read Queue Depth (IRD), provided in the connection parameters, and
the local device's Outbound RDMA Read Queue Depth (ORD). The latter
limit is max_qp_init_rd_atom, not max_qp_rd_atom.
The svcrdma_ord value caps the ORD value for iWARP transports, which
do not exchange ORD/IRD values at connection time. Since no other
Linux kernel RDMA-enabled storage target sees fit to provide this
cap, I'm removing it here too.
initiator_depth is a u8, so ensure the computed ORD value does not

The current svcrdma sendto code path posts one RDMA Write WR at a
time. Each of these Writes typically carries a small number of pages
(for instance, up to 30 pages for mlx4 devices). That means a 1MB
NFS READ reply requires 9 ib_post_send() calls for the Write WRs,
and one for the Send WR carrying the actual RPC Reply message.
Instead, use the new rdma_rw API. The details of Write WR chain
construction and memory registration are taken care of in the RDMA
core. svcrdma can focus on the details of the RPC-over-RDMA
protocol. This gives three main benefits:
1. All Write WRs for one RDMA segment are posted in a single chain.
As few as one ib_post_send() for each Write chunk.
2. The Write path can now use FRWR to register the Write buffers.
If the device's maximum page list depth is large, this means a
single Write WR is needed for each RPC's Write chunk data.
3. The new code introduces support for RPCs that carry both a Write
list and a Reply chunk. This combination can be used for an NFSv4
READ where the data payload is large, and thus is removed from the
Payload Stream, but the Payload Stream is still larger than the
inline threshold.

The plan is to replace the local bespoke code that constructs and
posts RDMA Read and Write Work Requests with calls to the rdma_rw
API. This shares code with other RDMA-enabled ULPs that manages the
gory details of buffer registration and posting Work Requests.
Some design notes:
o The structure of RPC-over-RDMA transport headers is flexible,
allowing multiple segments per Reply with arbitrary alignment,
each with a unique R_key. Write and Send WRs continue to be
built and posted in separate code paths. However, one whole
chunk (with one or more RDMA segments apiece) gets exactly
one ib_post_send and one work completion.
o svc_xprt reference counting is modified, since a chain of
rdma_rw_ctx structs generates one completion, no matter how
many Write WRs are posted.
o The current code builds the transport header as it is construct-
ing Write WRs. I've replaced that with marshaling of transport
header data items in a separate step. This is because the exact
structure of client-provided segments may not align with the
components of the server's reply xdr_buf, or the pages in the
page list. Thus parts of each client-provided segment may be
written at different points in the send path.
