Pull rdma fixes from Jason Gunthorpe:
 "This is an unusually large bunch of bug fixes for the later rc cycle,
  rxe and mlx5 both dumped a lot of things at once. rxe continues to fix
  itself, and mlx5 is fixing a bunch of "queue counters" related bugs.

  There is one highly notable bug fix regarding the qkey. This small
  security check was missed in the original 2005 implementation and it
  allows some significant issues.

  Summary:

   - Two rtrs bug fixes for error unwind bugs

   - Several rxe bug fixes:
      * Incorrect Rx packet validation
      * Using memory without a refcount
      * Syzkaller found use before initialization
      * Regression fix for missing locking with the tasklet conversion
        from this merge window

   - Have bnxt report the correct link properties to userspace, this was
     a regression in v6.3

   - Several mlx5 bug fixes:
      * Kernel crash triggerable by userspace for the RAW ethernet
        profile
      * Defend against steering refcounting issues created by userspace
      * Incorrect change of QP port affinity parameters in some LAG
        configurations

   - Fix mlx5 Q counters:
      * Do not over allocate Q counters to allow userspace to use the
        full port capacity
      * Kernel crash triggered by eswitch due to mis-use of Q counters
      * Incorrect mlx5_device for Q counters in some LAG configurations

   - Properly implement the IBA spec restricting privileged qkeys to

<id>617f5db1a626f18d5cbb7c7faf7bf8f9ea12be78</id>
<content type='text'>
The cited commit aimed to ensure that Virtual Functions (VFs) assign a
queue affinity to a Queue Pair (QP) to distribute traffic when
the LAG master creates a hardware LAG. If the affinity was set while
the hardware was not in LAG, the firmware would ignore the affinity value.

However, this commit unintentionally assigned an affinity to QPs on the LAG
master's VPORT even if the RDMA device was not marked as LAG-enabled.
In most cases, this was not an issue because when the hardware entered
hardware LAG configuration, the RDMA device of the LAG master would be
destroyed and a new one would be created, marked as LAG-enabled.

The problem arises when a user configures Equal-Cost Multipath (ECMP).
In ECMP mode, traffic can be directed to different physical ports based on
the queue affinity, which is intended for use by VPORTS other than the
E-Switch manager. ECMP mode is supported only if both E-Switch managers are
in switchdev mode and the appropriate route is configured via IP. In this
configuration, the RDMA device is not destroyed, and we retain the RDMA
device that is not marked as LAG-enabled.

To ensure correct behavior, Send Queues (SQs) opened by the E-Switch
manager through verbs should be assigned strict affinity. This means they
will only be able to communicate through the native physical port
associated with the E-Switch manager. This will prevent the firmware from
assigning affinity and will not allow the SQs to be remapped in case of
failover.

<title>net/mlx5e: Use query_special_contexts cmd only once per mdev</title>

Don't query the firmware so many times (num rqs * num wqes * wqe frags)
because it slows down linearly the interface creation time when the
product is larger. Do it only once per mdev and store the result in
mlx5e_param.

Due to helper function being called from different files, move it to
an appropriate location. Rename the function with a proper prefix and
add a small cleanup.

This fix applies only for legacy rq.

====================
mlx5-updates-2023-04-20

1) Dragos Improves RX page pool, and provides some fixes to his previous
   series:
 1.1) Fix releasing page_pool for striding RQ and legacy RQ nonlinear case
 1.2) Hook NAPIs to page pools to gain more performance.

2) From Roi, Some cleanups to TC and eswitch modules.

3) Maher migrates vnic diagnostic counters reporting from debugfs to a
    dedicated devlink health reporter

Maher Says:
===========
 net/mlx5: Expose vnic diagnostic counters using devlink

Currently, vnic diagnostic counters are exposed through the following
debugfs:

$ ls /sys/kernel/debug/mlx5/0000:08:00.0/esw/vf_0/vnic_diag/
cq_overrun
quota_exceeded_command
total_q_under_processor_handle
invalid_command
send_queue_priority_update_flow
nic_receive_steering_discard

The current design does not allow the hypervisor to view the diagnostic
counters of its VFs, in case the VFs get bound to a VM. In other words,
the counters are not exposed for representor interfaces.
Furthermore, the debugfs design is inconvenient future-wise, in case more
counters need to be reported by the driver in the future.

As these counters pertain to vNIC health, it is more appropriate to
utilize the devlink health reporter to expose them.

Thus, this patchest includes the following changes:

* Drop the current vnic diagnostic counters debugfs interface.
* Add a vnic devlink health reporter for PFs/VFs core devices, which
  when diagnosed will dump vnic diagnostic counter values that are
  queried from FW.
* Add a vnic devlink health reporter for the representor interface, which
  serves the same purpose listed in the previous point, in addition to
  allowing the hypervisor to view its VFs diagnostic counters, even when
  the VFs are bounded to external VMs.

Example of devlink health reporter usage is:
$devlink health diagnose pci/0000:08:00.0 reporter vnic
 vNIC env counters:
    total_error_queues: 0 send_queue_priority_update_flow: 0
    comp_eq_overrun: 0 async_eq_overrun: 0 cq_overrun: 0
    invalid_command: 0 quota_exceeded_command: 0
    nic_receive_steering_discard: 0

Create a vnic devlink health reporter for PFs/VFs interfaces.
The reporter's diagnose callback displays the values of vNIC/vport
transport debug counters of PFs/VFs, as follows:

$ devlink health diagnose pci/0000:08:00.0 reporter vnic
 vNIC env counters:
    total_error_queues: 0 send_queue_priority_update_flow: 0
    comp_eq_overrun: 0 async_eq_overrun: 0 cq_overrun: 0
    invalid_command: 0 quota_exceeded_command: 0
    nic_receive_steering_discard: 0

Moreover, add documentation on the reporter functionality and the
counters description.

While at it, expose the vNIC counters diagnose function to be used by
the downstream patch, which will reveal the counters for representor
interfaces.

This reverts commit fe998a3c77b9f989a30a2a01fb00d3729a6d53a4.

Paul reports that it causes a regression with IB on CX4
and FW 12.18.1000. In addition I think that the concept
of "management PF" is not fully accepted and requires
a discussion.

Create a new profile for SFs in order to disable the command cache.
Each function command cache consumes ~500KB of memory, when using a
large number of SFs this savings is notable on memory constarined
systems.

Use a new profile to provide for future differences between SFs and PFs.

The mr_cache not used for non-PF functions, so it is excluded from the
new profile.

mlx5-updates-2023-03-20

mlx5 dynamic msix

This patch series adds support for dynamic msix vectors allocation in mlx5.

Eli Cohen Says:

================

The following series of patches modifies mlx5_core to work with the
dynamic MSIX API. Currently, mlx5_core allocates all the interrupt
vectors it needs and distributes them amongst the consumers. With the
introduction of dynamic MSIX support, which allows for allocation of
interrupts more than once, we now allocate vectors as we need them.
This allows other drivers running on top of mlx5_core to allocate
interrupt vectors for their own use. An example for this is mlx5_vdpa,
which uses these vectors to propagate interrupts directly from the
hardware to the vCPU [1].

As a preparation for using this series, a use after free issue is fixed
in lib/cpu_rmap.c and the allocator for rmap entries has been modified.
A complementary API for irq_cpu_rmap_add() has also been introduced.

Provide external API to be used by other drivers relying on mlx5_core,
for allocating MSIX vectors. An example for such a driver would be
mlx5_vdpa.
