Commit 400dbc96583f ("IB/core: Infrastructure for extensible uverbs
commands") added an infrastructure for extensible uverbs commands
while later commit 436f2ad05a0b ("IB/core: Export ib_create/destroy_flow
through uverbs") exported ib_create_flow()/ib_destroy_flow() functions
using this new infrastructure.

According to the commit 400dbc96583f, the purpose of this
infrastructure is to support passing around provider (eg. hardware)
specific buffers when userspace issue commands to the kernel, so that
it would be possible to extend uverbs (eg. core) buffers independently
from the provider buffers.

But the new kernel command function prototypes were not modified to
take advantage of this extension. This issue was exposed by Roland
Dreier in a previous review[1].

So the following patch is an attempt to a revised extensible command
infrastructure.

This improved extensible command infrastructure distinguish between
core (eg. legacy)'s command/response buffers from provider
(eg. hardware)'s command/response buffers: each extended command
implementing function is given a struct ib_udata to hold core
(eg. uverbs) input and output buffers, and another struct ib_udata to
hold the hw (eg. provider) input and output buffers.

Having those buffers identified separately make it easier to increase
one buffer to support extension without having to add some code to
guess the exact size of each command/response parts: This should make
the extended functions more reliable.

Additionally, instead of relying on command identifier being greater
than IB_USER_VERBS_CMD_THRESHOLD, the proposed infrastructure rely on
unused bits in command field: on the 32 bits provided by command
field, only 6 bits are really needed to encode the identifier of
commands currently supported by the kernel. (Even using only 6 bits
leaves room for about 23 new commands).

So this patch makes use of some high order bits in command field to
store flags, leaving enough room for more command identifiers than one
will ever need (eg. 256).

The new flags are used to specify if the command should be processed
as an extended one or a legacy one. While designing the new command
format, care was taken to make usage of flags itself extensible.

Using high order bits of the commands field ensure that newer
libibverbs on older kernel will properly fail when trying to call
extended commands. On the other hand, older libibverbs on newer kernel
will never be able to issue calls to extended commands.

The extended command header includes the optional response pointer so
that output buffer length and output buffer pointer are located
together in the command, allowing proper parameters checking. This
should make implementing functions easier and safer.

Additionally the extended header ensure 64bits alignment, while making
all sizes multiple of 8 bytes, extending the maximum buffer size:

                             legacy      extended

   Maximum command buffer:  256KBytes   1024KBytes (512KBytes + 512KBytes)
  Maximum response buffer:  256KBytes   1024KBytes (512KBytes + 512KBytes)

For the purpose of doing proper buffer size accounting, the headers
size are no more taken in account in "in_words".

One of the odds of the current extensible infrastructure, reading
twice the "legacy" command header, is fixed by removing the "legacy"
command header from the extended command header: they are processed as
two different parts of the command: memory is read once and
information are not duplicated: it's making clear that's an extended
command scheme and not a different command scheme.

The proposed scheme will format input (command) and output (response)
buffers this way:

- command:

  legacy header +
  extended header +
  command data (core + hw):

    +----------------------------------------+
    | flags     |   00      00    |  command |
    |        in_words    |   out_words       |
    +----------------------------------------+
    |                 response               |
    |                 response               |
    | provider_in_words | provider_out_words |
    |                 padding                |
    +----------------------------------------+
    |                                        |
    .              &lt;uverbs input&gt;            .
    .              (in_words * 8)            .
    |                                        |
    +----------------------------------------+
    |                                        |
    .             &lt;provider input&gt;           .
    .          (provider_in_words * 8)       .
    |                                        |
    +----------------------------------------+

- response, if present:

    +----------------------------------------+
    |                                        |
    .          &lt;uverbs output space&gt;         .
    .             (out_words * 8)            .
    |                                        |
    +----------------------------------------+
    |                                        |
    .         &lt;provider output space&gt;        .
    .         (provider_out_words * 8)       .
    |                                        |
    +----------------------------------------+

The overall design is to ensure that the extensible infrastructure is
itself extensible while begin more reliable with more input and bound
checking.

Note:

The unused field in the extended header would be perfect candidate to
hold the command "comp_mask" (eg. bit field used to handle
compatibility).  This was suggested by Roland Dreier in a previous
review[2].  But "comp_mask" field is likely to be present in the uverb
input and/or provider input, likewise for the response, as noted by
Matan Barak[3], so it doesn't make sense to put "comp_mask" in the
header.

Commit 400dbc96583f ("IB/core: Infrastructure for extensible uverbs

while later commit 436f2ad05a0b ("IB/core: Export ib_create/destroy_flow

    .         (provider_out_words * 8)       .
    |                                        |
    +----------------------------------------+

The overall design is to ensure that the extensible infrastructure is
itself extensible while begin more reliable with more input and bound
checking.

Note:

The unused field in the extended header would be perfect candidate to
hold the command "comp_mask" (eg. bit field used to handle
compatibility).  This was suggested by Roland Dreier in a previous
review[2].  But "comp_mask" field is likely to be present in the uverb
input and/or provider input, likewise for the response, as noted by
Matan Barak[3], so it doesn't make sense to put "comp_mask" in the
header.

<title>IB/core: Remove ib_uverbs_flow_spec structure from userspace</title>

The structure holding any types of flow_spec is of no use to
userspace.  It would be wrong for userspace to do:

  struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec flow_spec;

  flow_spec.type = IB_FLOW_SPEC_TCP;
  flow_spec.size = sizeof(flow_spec);

Instead, userspace should use the dedicated flow_spec structure for
  - Ethernet : struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec_eth,
  - IPv4     : struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec_ipv4,
  - TCP/UDP  : struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec_tcp_udp.

In other words, struct ib_uverbs_flow_spec is a "virtual" data
structure that can only be use by the kernel as an alias to the other.

<title>IB/core: Make uverbs flow structure use names like verbs ones</title>

This patch adds "flow" prefix to most of data structure added as part
of commit 436f2ad05a0b ("IB/core: Export ib_create/destroy_flow through
uverbs") to keep those names in sync with the data structures added in
commit 319a441d1361 ("IB/core: Add receive flow steering support").

It's just a matter of translating 'ib_flow' to 'ib_uverbs_flow'.

<title>IB/core: Rename 'flow' structs to match other uverbs structs</title>

Commit 436f2ad05a0b ("IB/core: Export ib_create/destroy_flow through
uverbs") added public data structures to support receive flow
steering.  The new structs are not following the 'uverbs' pattern:
they're lacking the common prefix 'ib_uverbs'.

This patch replaces ib_kern prefix by ib_uverbs.

This patch fixes the following issues:

1. Unneeded checks were removed

2. Removed the fixed size out of flow_attr.size, thus simplifying the checks.

3. Remove a 32bit hole on 64bit systems with strict alignment in
   struct ib_kern_flow_att by adding a reserved field.
