Currently eswitch mode change is occurring from 2 different execution
contexts as below.
1. sriov sysfs enable/disable
2. devlink eswitch set commands
Both of them need to access eswitch related data structures in
synchronized manner.
Without any synchronization below race condition exist.
SR-IOV enable/disable with devlink eswitch mode change:
cpu-0 cpu-1
----- -----
mlx5_device_disable_sriov() mlx5_devlink_eswitch_mode_set()
mlx5_eswitch_disable() esw_offloads_stop()
esw_offloads_disable() mlx5_eswitch_disable()
esw_offloads_disable()
Hence, they are synchronized using a new mode_lock.
eswitch's state_lock is not used as it can lead to a deadlock scenario
below and state_lock is only for vport and fdb exclusive access.
ip link set vf <param>
netlink rcv_msg() - Lock A
rtnl_lock
vfinfo()
esw->state_lock() - Lock B
devlink eswitch_set
devlink_mutex
esw->state_lock() - Lock B
attach_netdev()
register_netdev()
rtnl_lock - Lock A
Alternatives considered:
1. Acquiring rtnl lock before taking esw->state_lock to follow similar
locking sequence as ip link flow during eswitch mode set.
rtnl lock is not good idea for two reasons.
(a) Holding rtnl lock for several hundred device commands is not good
idea.
(b) It leads to below and more similar deadlocks.
devlink eswitch_set
devlink_mutex
rtnl_lock - Lock A
esw->state_lock() - Lock B
eswitch_disable()
reload()
ib_register_device()
ib_cache_setup_one()
rtnl_lock()
2. Exporting devlink lock may lead to undesired use of it in vendor
driver(s) in future.
3. Unloading representors outside of the mode_lock requires
serialization with other process trying to enable the eswitch.
4. Differing the representors life cycle to a different workqueue
requires synchronization with func_change_handler workqueue.

Subsequent patch protects eswitch mode changes across sriov and devlink
interfaces. It is desirable for eswitch to provide thread safe eswitch
enable and disable APIs.
Hence, extend eswitch enable API to optionally update num_vfs when
requested.
In subsequent patch, eswitch num_vfs are updated after all the eswitch
users eswitch drops its reference count.

mlx5_device_disable_sriov() currently reads num_vfs from the PCI core.
However when mlx5_device_disable_sriov() is executed, SR-IOV is
already disabled at the PCI level.
Due to this disable_hca() cleanup is not done during SR-IOV disable
flow.
mlx5_sriov_disable()
pci_enable_sriov()
mlx5_device_disable_sriov() <- num_vfs is zero here.
When SR-IOV enablement fails during mlx5_sriov_enable(), HCA's are left
in enabled stage because mlx5_device_disable_sriov() relies on num_vfs
from PCI core.
mlx5_sriov_enable()
mlx5_device_enable_sriov()
pci_enable_sriov() <- Fails
Hence, to overcome above issues,
(a) Read num_vfs before disabling SR-IOV and use it.
(b) Use num_vfs given when enabling sriov in error unwinding path.

Functions change event output data size changes when functions other
than VFs will be enabled in HCA CAP.
With current API, multiple callers needs to align, calculate accurate
size of the output data depending on number on non VF functions enabled
in the device.
Instead of duplicating such math at multiple places, refactor
mlx5_esw_query_functions() to return raw output allocated by itself.
Caller must free the allocated memory using kvfree() as described in the
function comment section.
This hides calcuation within mlx5_esw_query_functions() and provides
simpler API.

Enabled number of VFs is key for eswich manager to do flow steering
initialization and vport configurations. However, the number of
enabled VFs may come from two sources as below.
PF: num of VFs is provided by enabled SR-IOV of itself.
ECPF: num of VFs is provided by enabled SR-IOV from its peer PF. And
SR-IOV can't be enabled from ECPF itself.
Current driver handles the two cases in different stages and passing
the number of enabled VFs among a large scope of internal functions.
It is usually hard to find out where is the real number of VFs from
due to layers of argument pass-in.
This patch consolidated that number from the entry point of doing
eswitch setup, and maintained a copy so that eswitch functions can
refer to it directly.
Eswitch driver shall always use this number when referring to enabled
number of VFs, don't use other numbers such as from SR-IOV.

For ECPF with eswitch manager privilege, query the host max VF count
by querying the device using query_functions command.
With this enhancement:
1. flow steering entries are created only for valid vports based on
the max VF count of the PF.
2. Driver only queries cap of valid vport.
Eswitch requires the max VFs when doing initialization, so do sr-iov
init before eswitch init.

Simplify sriov enable/disable flow for below two checks.
1. PCI core driver allows sriov configuration only on a PF.
This is done in drivers/pci/pci-sysfs.c sriov_attrs_are_visible().
2. PCI core driver allow sriov enablement if the sriov is currently
disabled for for a PF. This is done in drivers/pci/pci-sysfs.c
sriov_numvfs_store().
Hence there is no need for mlx5 driver to duplicate such checks.

Mellanox's SmartNIC combines embedded CPU(e.g, ARM) processing power
with advanced network offloads to accelerate a multitude of security,
networking and storage applications.
With the introduction of the SmartNIC, there is a new PCI function
called Embedded CPU Physical Function(ECPF). And it's possible for a
PF to get its ICM pages from the ECPF PCI function. Driver shall
identify if it is running on such a function by reading a bit in
the initialization segment.
When firmware asks for pages, it would issue a page request event
specifying how many pages it requests and for which function. That
driver responds with a manage_pages command providing the requested
pages along with an indication for which function it is providing these
pages.
The encoding before this patch was as follows:
function_id == 0: pages are requested for the function receiving
the EQE.
function_id != 0: pages are requested for VF identified by the
function_id value
A new one bit field in the EQE identifies that pages are requested for
the ECPF.
The notion of page_supplier can be introduced here and to support that,
manage pages and query pages were modified so firmware can distinguish
the following cases:
1. Function provides pages for itself
2. PF provides pages for its VF
3. ECPF provides pages to itself
4. ECPF provides pages for another function
This distinction is possible through the introduction of the bit
"embedded_cpu_function" in query_pages, manage_pages and page request
EQE.

In smartnic env, the host (PF) driver might not be an e-switch
manager, hence the FW will err on driver attempts to deal with
setting/unsetting the eswitch and as a result the overall setup
of sriov will fail.
Fix that by avoiding the operation if e-switch management is not
allowed for this driver instance. While here, move to use the
correct name for the esw manager capability name.

Pull rdma updates from Doug Ledford:
"This is a big pull request.
Of note is that I'm sending you the new ioctl API for the rdma
subsystem. We put it up on linux-api@, but didn't get much response.
The API is complex, but it solves two different problems in one go:
1) The bi-directional nature of the RDMA file write calls, which
created the security hole we had to handle (and for which the fix
is now causing problems for systems in production, we were a bit
over zealous in the fix and the ability to open a device, then
fork, then create new queue pairs on the device and use them is
broken).
2) The bloat caused by different vendors implementing extensions to
the base verbs API. Each vendor's hardware is slightly different,
and the hardware might be suitable for one extension but not
another.
By the time we add generic extensions for all the different ways
that the different hardware can offload things, the API becomes
bloated. Things like our completion structs have started to exceed
a cache line in size because of all the elements needed to support
this. That in turn shows up heavily in the performance graphs with
a noticable drop in performance on 100Gigabit links as our
completion structs go from occupying one cache line to 1+.
This API makes things like the completion structs modular in a
very similar way to netlink so that your structs can only include
the items needed for the offloads/features you are actually using
on a given queue pair. In that way we support everything, but only
use what we need, and our structs stay smaller.
The ioctl API is better explained by the posting on linux-api@ than I
can explain it here, so I'll just leave it at that.
The rest of the pull request is typical stuff.

LAG cannot work if virtual functions are present. Therefore, if LAG is
configured, the attempt to create virtual functions will fail. This gives
precedence to LAG over SRIOV which is not the desired behavior as users
might want to use the bonding/teaming driver also want to work with SRIOV.
In that case we don't want to force an order of actions, first create
virtual functions and only than configure a bonding/teaming net device.
To fix, if LAG is configured during a request to create virtual
functions, remove it and continue.
We ignore ENODEV when trying to forbid lag. This makes sense
because "No such device" means that lag is forbidden anyway.

This patch adds SRIOV base support for mlx5 supported devices. The same
driver is used for both PFs and VFs; VFs are identified by the driver
through the flag MLX5_PCI_DEV_IS_VF added to the pci table entries.
Virtual functions are created as usual through writing a value to the
sriov_numvs sysfs file of the PF device. Upon instantiating VFs, they will
all be probed by the driver on the hypervisor. One can gracefully unbind
them through /sys/bus/pci/drivers/mlx5_core/unbind.
mlx5_wait_for_vf_pages() was added to ensure that when a VF dies without
executing proper teardown, the hypervisor driver waits till all of the
pages that were allocated at the hypervisor to maintain its operation
are returned.
In order for the VF to be operational, the PF needs to call enable_hca
for it. This can be done before the VFs are created through a call to
pci_enable_sriov.
If the there are VFs assigned to a VMs when the driver of the PF is
unloaded, all the VF will experience system error and PF driver unloads
cleanly; in this case pci_disable_sriov is not called and the devices
will show when running lspci. Once the PF driver is reloaded, it will
sync its data structures which maintain state on its VFs.
