2013-11-08IB/srp: Make queue size configurableBart Van Assche
Certain storage configurations, e.g. a sufficiently large array of hard disks in a RAID configuration, need a queue depth above 64 to achieve optimal performance. Hence make the queue depth configurable.

2013-11-08IB/srp: Export sgid to sysfsBart Van Assche
On an initiator system with multiple IB ports it is not yet possible to figure out what the originating port of an SRP connection is. Hence make the source GID available in sysfs.

2013-11-08IB/srp: Make transport layer retry count configurableVu Pham
Allow the InfiniBand RC retry count to be configured by the user as an option in the target login string. Reducing this retry count allows to reduce the path failover time.

2013-07-01IB/srp: Make HCA completion vector configurableBart Van Assche
Several InfiniBand HCAs allow configuring the completion vector per CQ. This allows spreading the workload created by IB completion interrupts over multiple MSI-X vectors and hence over multiple CPU cores. In other words, configuring the completion vector properly not only allows reducing latency on an initiator connected to multiple SRP targets but also allows improving throughput.
