<title>RDMA/cma: Pass QP type into rdma_create_id()</title>

<content type='text'>
The RDMA CM currently infers the QP type from the port space selected
by the user.  In the future (eg with RDMA_PS_IB or XRC), there may not
be a 1-1 correspondence between port space and QP type.  For netlink
export of RDMA CM state, we want to export the QP type to userspace,
so it is cleaner to explicitly associate a QP type to an ID.

Modify rdma_create_id() to allow the user to specify the QP type, and
use it to make our selections of datagram versus connected mode.

Now that we can get larger SG lists, we can take advantage of HCAs that
allow us to use larger FMR sizes. In many cases, we can use up to 512
entries, so start there and work our way down.

This allows us to guarantee the ability to submit up to 8 MB requests
based on the current value of SCSI_MAX_SG_CHAIN_SEGMENTS. While FMR will
usually condense the requests into 8 SG entries, it is imperative that
the target support external tables in case the FMR mapping fails or is
not supported.

We add a safety valve to allow targets without the needed support to
reap the benefits of the large tables, but fail in a manner that lets
the user know that the data didn't make it to the device. The user must
add "allow_ext_sg=1" to the target parameters to indicate that the
target has the needed support.

If indirect_sg_entries is not specified in the modules options, then
the sg_tablesize for the target will default to cmd_sg_entries unless
overridden by the target options.

Instead of forcing all of the S/G entries to fit in one FMR, and falling
back to indirect descriptors if that fails, allow the use of as many
FMRs as needed to map the request. This lays the groundwork for allowing
indirect descriptor tables that are larger than can fit in the command
IU, but should marginally improve performance now by reducing the number
of indirect descriptors needed.

We increase the minimum page size for the FMR pool to 4K, as larger
pages help increase the coverage of each FMR, and it is rare that the
kernel would send down a request with scattered 512 byte fragments.

This patch also move some of the target initialization code afte the
parsing of options, to keep it together with the new code that needs to
allocate memory based on the options given.
