[ Upstream commit 475f9ff63ee8c296aa46c6e9e9ad9bdd301c6bdf ]

There is a certain probability that following
exceptions will occur in the wrk benchmark test:

Running 10s test @ http://11.213.45.6:80
  8 threads and 64 connections
  Thread Stats   Avg      Stdev     Max   +/- Stdev
    Latency     3.72ms   13.94ms 245.33ms   94.17%
    Req/Sec     1.96k   713.67     5.41k    75.16%
  155262 requests in 10.10s, 23.10MB read
Non-2xx or 3xx responses: 3

We will find that the error is HTTP 400 error, which is a serious
exception in our test, which means the application data was
corrupted.

Consider the following scenarios:

CPU0                            CPU1

buf_desc-&gt;used = 0;
                                cmpxchg(buf_desc-&gt;used, 0, 1)
                                deal_with(buf_desc)

memset(buf_desc-&gt;cpu_addr,0);

This will cause the data received by a victim connection to be cleared,
thus triggering an HTTP 400 error in the server.

This patch exchange the order between clear used and memset, add
barrier to ensure memory consistency.

READ/WRITE proved to be actively confusing - the meanings are
"data destination, as used with read(2)" and "data source, as
used with write(2)", but people keep interpreting those as
"we read data from it" and "we write data to it", i.e. exactly
the wrong way.

Call them ITER_DEST and ITER_SOURCE - at least that is harder
to misinterpret...

<title>net/smc: Fix possible leaked pernet namespace in smc_init()</title>

In smc_init(), register_pernet_subsys(&amp;smc_net_stat_ops) is called
without any error handling.
If it fails, registering of &amp;smc_net_ops won't be reverted.
And if smc_nl_init() fails, &amp;smc_net_stat_ops itself won't be reverted.

This leaves wild ops in subsystem linkedlist and when another module
tries to call register_pernet_operations() it triggers page fault:

BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: fffffbfff81b964c
RIP: 0010:register_pernet_operations+0x1b9/0x5f0

This enables SO_REUSEPORT [1] for clcsock when it is set on smc socket,
so that some applications which uses it can be transparently replaced
with SMC. Also, this helps improve load distribution.

Here is a simple test of NGINX + wrk with SMC. The CPU usage is collected
on NGINX (server) side as below.

Disable SO_REUSEPORT:

This enables SO_REUSEPORT [1] for clcsock when it is set on smc socket,
so that some applications which uses it can be transparently replaced
with SMC. Also, this helps improve load distribution.

Here is a simple test of NGINX + wrk with SMC. The CPU usage is collected
on NGINX (server) side as below.

Disable SO_REUSEPORT:

<title>net/smc: Unbind r/w buffer size from clcsock and make them tunable</title>

Currently, SMC uses smc-&gt;sk.sk_{rcv|snd}buf to create buffers for
send buffer and RMB. And the values of buffer size are from tcp_{w|r}mem
in clcsock.

The buffer size from TCP socket doesn't fit SMC well. Generally, buffers
are usually larger than TCP for SMC-R/-D to get higher performance, for
they are different underlay devices and paths.

So this patch unbinds buffer size from TCP, and introduces two sysctl
knobs to tune them independently. Also, these knobs are per net
namespace and work for containers.

<title>net/smc: Introduce a specific sysctl for TEST_LINK time</title>

SMC-R tests the viability of link by sending out TEST_LINK LLC
messages over RoCE fabric when connections on link have been
idle for a time longer than keepalive interval (testlink time).

But using tcp_keepalive_time as testlink time maybe not quite
suitable because it is default no less than two hours[1], which
is too long for single link to find peer dead. The active host
will still use peer-dead link (QP) sending messages, and can't
find out until get IB_WC_RETRY_EXC_ERR error CQEs, which takes
more time than TEST_LINK timeout (SMC_LLC_WAIT_TIME) normally.

So this patch introduces a independent sysctl for SMC-R to set
link keepalive time, in order to detect link down in time. The
default value is 30 seconds.

During reboot and IB device module remove, all links will be set

smcr_buf_map_usable_links() should return an error and stop the
CLC flow accessing to uninitialized mr.
