Sudeep Dutt a63444375f misc: mic: scif bug fix for vmalloc_to_page crash
v4.2-rc1 enabled huge page support for ioremap(..).
Calling vmalloc_to_page after v4.2-rc1 results in the
crash shown below on the host upon booting X100 coprocessors:

BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at ffffc47c00000000
IP: [<ffffffff811a2c0c>] vmalloc_to_page+0x6c/0xb0

This patch fixes this crash by obtaining the fake struct page
pointer which is required to be passed into dma_map_sg(..)
by calling pfn_to_page(..) instead of vmalloc_to_page(..).

Sudeep Dutt fdd9fd5c38 misc: mic: SCIF messaging and node enumeration APIs
SCIF messaging APIs which allow sending messages between the SCIF
endpoints via a byte stream based ring buffer which has been
optimized to avoid reads across PCIe. The SCIF messaging APIs
are typically used for short < 1024 byte messages for best
performance while the RDMA APIs which will be submitted in a future
patch series is recommended for larger transfers. The node
enumeration API enables a user to query for the number of nodes
online in the SCIF network and their node ids.

Nikhil Rao 76371c7c0d misc: mic: SCIF connections APIs i.e. accept and connect
SCIF connection APIs which establish a SCIF connection between
a pair of SCIF endpoints. A SCIF connection consists of a
dedicated queue-pair between the endpoints. Client messages are
sent over the queue-pair whereas the signaling associated with the
message is multiplexed over the node queue-pair. Similarly other
control messages such as exposing registered memory are also sent
over the node queue-pair. The SCIF endpoints must be in connected
state to exchange messages, register memory, map remote memory and
trigger DMA transfers. SCIF connections can be set up
asynchronously or synchronously.

Thanks to Johnnie S Peters for authoring parts of this patch during
early bring up of the SCIF driver.

Sudeep Dutt 40cb59428c misc: mic: SCIF node queue pair setup management
SCIF node queue pair setup creates the SCIF driver kernel
mode private node queue pairs between all the nodes to enable
internal control message communication once SCIF gets probed
by the SCIF hardware bus. Peer to peer communication between
MIC Coprocessor nodes is supported.
