There are many code paths opencoding kvmalloc. Let's use the helper
instead. The main difference to kvmalloc is that those users are
usually not considering all the aspects of the memory allocator. E.g.
allocation requests <= 32kB (with 4kB pages) are basically never failing
and invoke OOM killer to satisfy the allocation. This sounds too
disruptive for something that has a reasonable fallback - the vmalloc.
On the other hand those requests might fallback to vmalloc even when the
memory allocator would succeed after several more reclaim/compaction
attempts previously. There is no guarantee something like that happens
though.
This patch converts many of those places to kv[mz]alloc* helpers because
they are more conservative.

A user will now be able to loop packets back out of the same port using
a bpf program attached to xdp hook. Updates to the packet contents from
the bpf program is also supported.
For the packet write feature to work, the rx buffers are now mapped as
bidirectional when the page is allocated. This occurs only when the xdp
hook is active.
When the program returns a TX action, enqueue the packet directly to a
dedicated tx ring, so as to avoid completely any locking. This requires
the tx ring to be allocated 1:1 for each rx ring, as well as the tx
completion running in the same softirq.
Upon tx completion, this dedicated tx ring recycles pages without
unmapping directly back to the original rx ring. In steady state tx/drop
workload, effectively 0 page allocs/frees will occur.
In order to separate out the paths between free and recycle, a
free_tx_desc func pointer is introduced that is optionally updated
whenever recycle_ring is activated. By default the original free
function is always initialized.

The dma_alloc_coherent() function returns a virtual address which can
be used for coherent access to the underlying memory. On some
architectures, like arm64, undefined behavior results if this memory is
also accessed via virtual mappings that are not coherent. Because of
their undefined nature, operations like virt_to_page() return garbage
when passed virtual addresses obtained from dma_alloc_coherent(). Any
subsequent mappings via vmap() of the garbage page values are unusable
and result in bad things like bus errors (synchronous aborts in ARM64
speak).
The mlx4 driver contains code that does the equivalent of:
vmap(virt_to_page(dma_alloc_coherent)), this results in an OOPs when the
device is opened.
Prevent Ethernet driver to run this problematic code by forcing it to
allocate contiguous memory. As for the Infiniband driver, at first we
are trying to allocate contiguous memory, but in case of failure roll
back to work with fragmented memory.

problem description:
The current code sets UAR page size equal to system page size.
The ConnectX-3 and ConnectX-3 Pro HWs require minimum 128 UAR pages.
The mlx4 kernel drivers are not loaded if there is less than 128 UAR pages.
solution:
Always set UAR page to 4KB. This allows more UAR pages if the OS
has PAGE_SIZE larger than 4KB. For example, PowerPC kernel use 64KB
system page size, with 4MB uar region, there are 4MB/2/64KB = 32
uars (half for uar, half for blueflame). This does not meet minimum 128
UAR pages requirement. With 4KB UAR page, there are 4MB/2/4KB = 512 uars
which meet the minimum requirement.
Note that only codes in mlx4_core that deal with firmware know that uar
page size is 4KB. Codes that deal with usr page in cq and qp context
(mlx4_ib, mlx4_en and part of mlx4_core) still have the same assumption
that uar page size equals to system page size.
Note that with this implementation, on 64KB system page size kernel, there
are 16 uars per system page but only one uars is used. The other 15
uars are ignored because of the above assumption.
Regarding SR-IOV, mlx4_core in hypervisor will set the uar page size
to 4KB and mlx4_core code in virtual OS will obtain the uar page size from
firmware.
Regarding backward compatibility in SR-IOV, if hypervisor has this new code,
the virtual OS must be updated. If hypervisor has old code, and the virtual
OS has this new code, the new code will be backward compatible with the
old code. If the uar size is big enough, this new code in VF continues to
work with 64 KB uar page size (on PowerPc kernel). If the uar size does not
meet 128 uars requirement, this new code not loaded in VF and print the same
error message as the old code in Hypervisor.

da91309e0a (cpumask: Utility function to set n'th cpu...) created a
genuinely weird function. I never saw it before, it went through DaveM.
(He only does this to make us other maintainers feel better about our own
mistakes.)
cpumask_set_cpu_local_first's purpose is say "I need to spread things
across N online cpus, choose the ones on this numa node first"; you call
it in a loop.
It can fail. One of the two callers ignores this, the other aborts and
fails the device open.
It can fail in two ways: allocating the off-stack cpumask, or through a
convoluted codepath which AFAICT can only occur if cpu_online_mask
changes. Which shouldn't happen, because if cpu_online_mask can change
while you call this, it could return a now-offline cpu anyway.
It contains a nonsensical test "!cpumask_of_node(numa_node)". This was
drawn to my attention by Geert, who said this causes a warning on Sparc.
It sets a single bit in a cpumask instead of returning a cpu number,
because that's what the callers want.
It could be made more efficient by passing the previous cpu rather than
an index, but that would be more invasive to the callers.

to a barrer() call as the architecture is already strong ordered, and on

than the sync call that was being used for wmb.
I placed the new barriers between any spots that seemed to be trying to
order memory/memory reads or writes, if there are any spots that involved
MMIO I left the existing wmb in place as the new barriers cannot order

When using BF (Blue-Flame), the QPN overrides the VLAN, CV, and SV fields
in the WQE. Thus, BF may only be used for QPNs with bits 6,7 unset.
The current Ethernet driver code reserves a Tx QP range with 256b alignment.
This is wrong because if there are more than 64 Tx QPs in use,
QPNs >= base + 65 will have bits 6/7 set.
This problem is not specific for the Ethernet driver, any entity that
tries to reserve more than 64 BF-enabled QPs should fail. Also, using
ranges is not necessary here and is wasteful.
The new mechanism introduced here will support reservation for
"Eth QPs eligible for BF" for all drivers: bare-metal, multi-PF, and VFs
(when hypervisors support WC in VMs). The flow we use is:
1. In mlx4_en, allocate Tx QPs one by one instead of a range allocation,
and request "BF enabled QPs" if BF is supported for the function
2. In the ALLOC_RES FW command, change param1 to:
a. param1[23:0] - number of QPs
b. param1[31-24] - flags controlling QPs reservation
Bit 31 refers to Eth blueflame supported QPs. Those QPs must have
bits 6 and 7 unset in order to be used in Ethernet.
Bits 24-30 of the flags are currently reserved.
When a function tries to allocate a QP, it states the required attributes
for this QP. Those attributes are considered "best-effort". If an attribute,
such as Ethernet BF enabled QP, is a must-have attribute, the function has
to check that attribute is supported before trying to do the allocation.
In a lower layer of the code, mlx4_qp_reserve_range masks out the bits
which are unsupported. If SRIOV is used, the PF validates those attributes
and masks out unsupported attributes as well. In order to notify VFs which
attributes are supported, the VF uses QUERY_FUNC_CAP command. This command's
mailbox is filled by the PF, which notifies which QP allocation attributes
it supports.

mlx4_en_free_tx_desc() uses a prefetchw(&skb->users) to speed up
consume_skb()
prefetchw(&ring->tx_queue->dql) to speed up BQL update

Add frag0_dma/frag0_byte_count into mlx4_en_tx_info to avoid a cache
line miss in TX completion for frames having one dma element. (We avoid
reading back the tx descriptor)
Note this could be extended to 2/3 dma elements later, as we have free
room in mlx4_en_tx_info
Also, mlx4_en_free_tx_desc() no longer accesses skb_shinfo(). We use a
new nr_maps fields in mlx4_en_tx_info to avoid 2 or 3 cache misses.

- doorbell_qpn is stored in the cpu_to_be32() way to avoid bswap() in fast
path.
- mdev->mr.key stored in ring->mr_key to also avoid bswap() and access to
cold cache line.

- Remove unused variable ring->poll_cnt
- No need to set some fields if using blueflame
- Add missing const's
- Use unlikely
- Remove unneeded new line
- Make some comments more precise
- struct mlx4_bf @offset field reduced to unsigned int to save space

ethtool -S reports a new counter, tracking number of time doorbell
was not triggered, because skb->xmit_more was set.
$ ethtool -S eth0 | egrep "tx_packet|xmit_more"
tx_packets: 2413288400
xmit_more: 666121277
I merged the tso_packet false sharing avoidance in this patch as well.

skb->xmit_more tells us if another skb is coming next.
We need to send doorbell when : xmit_more is not set,
or txqueue is stopped (preventing next skb to come immediately)
Tested with a modified pktgen version, I got a 40% increase of
throughput.
