commit 11d8d645343efba0c975aefe7c2cf3b33c836c75 upstream.

According to IBTA spec v1.3 section 12.7.19, QPs should use GRH when
the path returned by the SA has hop-limit &gt; 0. Currently, we do that
only for the &gt; 1 case, fix that.

commit 67f1aee6f45059fd6b0f5b0ecb2c97ad0451f6b3 upstream.

The cxgb3_*_send() functions return NET_XMIT_ values, which are
positive integers values. So don't treat positive return values
as an error.

commit 4e4081673445485aa6bc90383bdb83e7a96cc48a upstream.

Hop limit value wasn't copied from attributes  when ah was created.
This may influence packets for unconnected services to get dropped in
routers when endpoints are not in the same subnet.

commit 0ca81a2840f77855bbad1b9f172c545c4dc9e6a4 upstream.

ib_send_cm_sidr_rep could sometimes erase the node from the sidr
(depending on errors in the process). Since ib_send_cm_sidr_rep is
called both from cm_sidr_req_handler and cm_destroy_id, cm_id_priv
could be either erased from the rb_tree twice or not erased at all.
Fixing that by making sure it's erased only once before freeing
cm_id_priv.

commit 0ca81a2840f77855bbad1b9f172c545c4dc9e6a4 upstream.

ib_send_cm_sidr_rep could sometimes erase the node from the sidr
(depending on errors in the process). Since ib_send_cm_sidr_rep is
called both from cm_sidr_req_handler and cm_destroy_id, cm_id_priv
could be either erased from the rb_tree twice or not erased at all.
Fixing that by making sure it's erased only once before freeing
cm_id_priv.

commit b632ffa7cee439ba5dce3b3bc4a5cbe2b3e20133 upstream.

We have many WR opcodes that are only supported in kernel space
and/or require optional information to be copied into the WR
structure.  Reject all those not explicitly handled so that we
can't pass invalid information to drivers.

<title>IB/uverbs: Fix race between ib_uverbs_open and remove_one</title>

commit 35d4a0b63dc0c6d1177d4f532a9deae958f0662c upstream.

Fixes: 2a72f212263701b927559f6850446421d5906c41 ("IB/uverbs: Remove dev_table")

Before this commit there was a device look-up table that was protected
by a spin_lock used by ib_uverbs_open and by ib_uverbs_remove_one. When
it was dropped and container_of was used instead, it enabled the race
with remove_one as dev might be freed just after:
dev = container_of(inode-&gt;i_cdev, struct ib_uverbs_device, cdev) but
before the kref_get.

In addition, this buggy patch added some dead code as
container_of(x,y,z) can never be NULL and so dev can never be NULL.
As a result the comment above ib_uverbs_open saying "the open method
will either immediately run -ENXIO" is wrong as it can never happen.

The solution follows Jason Gunthorpe suggestion from below URL:
https://www.mail-archive.com/linux-rdma@vger.kernel.org/msg25692.html

cdev will hold a kref on the parent (the containing structure,
ib_uverbs_device) and only when that kref is released it is
guaranteed that open will never be called again.

In addition, fixes the active count scheme to use an atomic
not a kref to prevent WARN_ON as pointed by above comment
from Jason.

commit 5e99b139f1b68acd65e36515ca347b03856dfb5a upstream.

The mlx4 IB driver implementation for ib_query_ah used a wrong offset
(28 instead of 29) when link type is Ethernet. Fixed to use the correct one.

<title>IB/qib: Change lkey table allocation to support more MRs</title>

commit d6f1c17e162b2a11e708f28fa93f2f79c164b442 upstream.

The lkey table is allocated with with a get_user_pages() with an
order based on a number of index bits from a module parameter.

The underlying kernel code cannot allocate that many contiguous pages.

There is no reason the underlying memory needs to be physically
contiguous.

This patch:
- switches the allocation/deallocation to vmalloc/vfree
- caps the number of bits to 23 to insure at least 1 generation bit
  o this matches the module parameter description

commit ca9b590caa17bcbbea119594992666e96cde9c2f upstream.

The current code decreases from the mss size (which is the gso_size
from the kernel skb) the size of the packet headers.

It shouldn't do that because the mss that comes from the stack
(e.g IPoIB) includes only the tcp payload without the headers.

The result is indication to the HW that each packet that the HW sends
is smaller than what it could be, and too many packets will be sent
for big messages.

An easy way to demonstrate one more aspect of the problem is by
configuring the ipoib mtu to be less than 2*hlen (2*56) and then
run app sending big TCP messages. This will tell the HW to send packets
with giant (negative value which under unsigned arithmetics becomes
a huge positive one) length and the QP moves to SQE state.
