IB/ipoib: Add rtnl_link_ops support Add rtnl_link_ops to IPoIB, with the first usage being child device create/delete through them. Childs devices are now either legacy ones, created/deleted through the ipoib sysfs entries, or RTNL ones. Adding support for RTNL childs involved refactoring of ipoib_vlan_add which is now used by both the sysfs and the link_ops code. Also, added ndo_uninit entry to support calling unregister_netdevice_queue from the rtnl dellink entry. This required removal of calls to ipoib_dev_cleanup from the driver in flows which use unregister_netdevice, since the networking core will invoke ipoib_uninit which does exactly that.

The IPoIB driver supports two modes of operation: datagram and
connected. The mode is set and read through an interface's
/sys/class/net/<intf name>/mode file.
In datagram mode, the IB UD (Unreliable Datagram) transport is used
and so the interface MTU has is equal to the IB L2 MTU minus the
IPoIB encapsulation header (4 bytes). For example, in a typical IB
fabric with a 2K MTU, the IPoIB MTU will be 2048 - 4 = 2044 bytes.
In connected mode, the IB RC (Reliable Connected) transport is used.

2009-12-10 01:21:36 +03:00
Connected mode takes advantage of the connected nature of the IB
transport and allows an MTU up to the maximal IP packet size of 64K,
which reduces the number of IP packets needed for handling large UDP
datagrams, TCP segments, etc and increases the performance for large
messages.

2009-04-09 00:52:01 +04:00
In connected mode, the interface's UD QP is still used for multicast
and communication with peers that don't support connected mode. In
this case, RX emulation of ICMP PMTU packets is used to cause the
networking stack to use the smaller UD MTU for these neighbours.

If the IB HW supports IPoIB stateless offloads, IPoIB advertises
TCP/IP checksum and/or Large Send (LSO) offloading capability to the
network stack.
Large Receive (LRO) offloading is also implemented and may be turned
on/off using ethtool calls. Currently LRO is supported only for
checksum offload capable devices.

If the underlying IB device supports CQ event moderation, one can
use ethtool to set interrupt mitigation parameters and thus reduce
the overhead incurred by handling interrupts. The main code path of
IPoIB doesn't use events for TX completion signaling so only RX
moderation is supported.

The performance impact of this option is negligible, so it
is safe to enable this option with debug_level set to 0 for normal
operation.
CONFIG_INFINIBAND_IPOIB_DEBUG_DATA enables even more debug output in
the data path when data_debug_level is set to 1. However, even with
the output disabled, enabling this configuration option will affect
performance, because it adds tests to the fast path.
