v2 cover Increase maximum number of Infiniband HCAs per system

This is v2 of a patch series that increases the maximum number of IB HCAs supported per system.

The original mail thread is here:

	http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/1/29/346

One note, I decided to "copy/paste" since factoring out the overflow code in the three drivers seemed like overkill. If so desired, I could factor those three separate functions into something provided by the core, but that seemed like more trouble than it was worth at the time.

As before, I still don't have access to a giant system, so what I did to test was to stick 4 cards into a small system, and then modify the limits with debug patches similar to this:

drivers/infiniband/core/ucm.c +1 -1
index 7bf0a82..8581e64 100644
@@ -102,7 +102,7 @@ struct ib_ucm_event {
 enum {
        IB_UCM_MAJOR = 231,
        IB_UCM_BASE_MINOR = 224,
-       IB_UCM_MAX_DEVICES = 32
+       IB_UCM_MAX_DEVICES = 2
 };
 
 

I tested all 3 drivers this way (uverbs, umad, ucm). I verified that we're not leaking device numbers on multiple modprobe/rmmod cycles, that there aren't any funny interactions when various combinations of the drivers are loaded.

I did not test the rest of the OFED stack. I did write some trivial programs to open the devices in /dev and close them again.

Here's an example of some of the testing:

See that /dev/ucm* devices now have a different major number compared to last time(248 vs 247), since we loaded that driver first.

But wait, why is it 248 and not 249? Is there a leak somewhere?

Ah, ib_ucm is dependent on ib_uverbs, so when we modprobed ib_ucm, in reality ib_uverbs got loaded first. See how it has a higher major number.

Finally, after one more reset, we see ib_umad loaded first and obtaining the major number of 249.

v1 -> v2:
- update umad and ucm drivers too

PATCH v2 1/18 IB/uverbs: convert *cdev to cdev in struct ib_uverbs_device

Instead of storing a pointer to a cdev, embed the entire struct cdev.

This change allows us to use the container_of() macro in ib_uverbs_open() in a future patch.

This change increases the size of struct ib_uverbs_device to 168 bytes across 3 cachelines from 80 bytes in 2 cachelines. However, we rearrange the members so that everything fits into the first cacheline except for the struct cdev. Finally, we don't touch the cdev in any fastpaths, so this change shouldn't negatively affect performance.

PATCH v2 2/18 IB/uverbs: remove dev_table

In reply to Alex Chiang

dev_table's raison d'etre was to associate an inode back to a struct ib_uverbs_device.

However, now that we've converted ib_uverbs_device to contain an embedded cdev (instead of a *cdev), we can use the container_of() macro and cast back to the containing device.

There's no longer any need for dev_table, so get rid of it.

PATCH v2 5/18 IB/uverbs: increase maximum devices supported

In reply to Alex Chiang

Some large systems may support more than IB_UVERBS_MAX_DEVICES (currently 32).

This change allows us to support more devices in a backwards-compatible manner. The first IB_UVERBS_MAX_DEVICES keep the same major/minor device numbers that they've always had.

If there are more than IB_UVERBS_MAX_DEVICES, we then dynamically request a new major device number (new minors start at 0).

This change increases the maximum number of HCAs to 64 (from 32).

PATCH v2 6/18 IB/uverbs: pack struct ib_uverbs_event_file tighter

In reply to Alex Chiang

Eliminate some padding in the structure by rearranging the members.

sizeof(struct ib_uverbs_event_file) is now 72 bytes (from 80) and more members now fit in the first cacheline.

PATCH v2 8/18 IB/umad: convert cdev pointers to embedded structs in struct ib_umad_port

In reply to Alex Chiang

Instead of storing pointers to cdev and sm_cdev, embed the full structures instead.

This change allows us to use the container_of() macro in ib_umad_open() and ib_umad_sm_open() in a future patch.

This change increases the size of struct ib_umad_port to 320 bytes from 128.

PATCH v2 9/18 IB/umad: remove port_table[]

In reply to Alex Chiang

We no longer need this data structure, as it was used to associate an inode back to a struct ib_umad_port during ->open().

But now that we're embedding a struct cdev in struct ib_umad_port, we can use the container_of() macro to go from the inode back to the device instead.

PATCH v2 11/18 IB/umad: use stack variable 'base' in ib_umad_init_port

In reply to Alex Chiang

This change is not useful by itself, but sets us up for a future change that allows us to support more than IB_UMAD_MAX_PORTS in a system.

PATCH v2 12/18 IB/umad: increase maximum devices supported

In reply to Alex Chiang

Some large systems may support more than IB_UMAD_MAX_PORTS (currently 64).

This change allows us to support more ports in a backwards-compatible manner. The first IB_UMAD_MAX_PORTS keep the same major/minor device numbers they've always had.

If there are more than IB_UMAD_MAX_PORTS, we then dynamically request a new major device number (new minors start at 0).

Hi Roland,

Any thoughts on this patch series?

Thanks,
/ac

* Alex Chiang <[email protected]>:

Quoted 165 lines

This is v2 of a patch series that increases the maximum number of IB HCAs supported per system.

The original mail thread is here:

	http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/1/29/346

One note, I decided to "copy/paste" since factoring out the overflow code in the three drivers seemed like overkill. If so desired, I could factor those three separate functions into something provided by the core, but that seemed like more trouble than it was worth at the time.

As before, I still don't have access to a giant system, so what I did to test was to stick 4 cards into a small system, and then modify the limits with debug patches similar to this:

drivers/infiniband/core/ucm.c +1 -1
index 7bf0a82..8581e64 100644
@@ -102,7 +102,7 @@ struct ib_ucm_event {
 enum {
        IB_UCM_MAJOR = 231,
        IB_UCM_BASE_MINOR = 224,
-       IB_UCM_MAX_DEVICES = 32
+       IB_UCM_MAX_DEVICES = 2
 };
 
 

I tested all 3 drivers this way (uverbs, umad, ucm). I verified that we're not leaking device numbers on multiple modprobe/rmmod cycles, that there aren't any funny interactions when various combinations of the drivers are loaded.

I did not test the rest of the OFED stack. I did write some trivial programs to open the devices in /dev and close them again.

Here's an example of some of the testing:

	dl585g2:~ # ls -l /dev/ucm*
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 231, 224 Feb  2 05:55 /dev/ucm0
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 231, 225 Feb  2 05:55 /dev/ucm1
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 247,   0 Feb  2 05:55 /dev/ucm2
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 247,   1 Feb  2 05:55 /dev/ucm3

Note that the major and minor numbers are behaving rather sanely.

	dl585g2:~ # rmmod ib_ucm
	dl585g2:~ # rmmod ib_uverbs
	dl585g2:~ # rmmod ib_umad

Reset.

	dl585g2:~ # modprobe ib_ucm
	dl585g2:~ # ls -l /dev/ucm*
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 231, 224 Feb  2 05:57 /dev/ucm0
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 231, 225 Feb  2 05:57 /dev/ucm1
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 248,   0 Feb  2 05:57 /dev/ucm2
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 248,   1 Feb  2 05:57 /dev/ucm3

See that /dev/ucm* devices now have a different major number compared to last time(248 vs 247), since we loaded that driver first.

But wait, why is it 248 and not 249? Is there a leak somewhere?

	dl585g2:~ # ls -l /dev/uverb*
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 231, 192 Feb  2 05:57 /dev/uverbs0
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 231, 193 Feb  2 05:57 /dev/uverbs1
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 249,   0 Feb  2 05:57 /dev/uverbs2
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 249,   1 Feb  2 05:57 /dev/uverbs3
	dl585g2:~ # rmmod ib_uverbs
	ERROR: Module ib_uverbs is in use by ib_ucm

Ah, ib_ucm is dependent on ib_uverbs, so when we modprobed ib_ucm, in reality ib_uverbs got loaded first. See how it has a higher major number.

	dl585g2:~ # rmmod ib_ucm
	dl585g2:~ # rmmod ib_uverbs
	dl585g2:~ # modprobe ib_umad
	dl585g2:~ # ls -l /dev/umad*
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 231, 0 Feb  2 05:58 /dev/umad0
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 231, 1 Feb  2 05:58 /dev/umad1
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 231, 2 Feb  2 05:58 /dev/umad2
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 231, 3 Feb  2 05:58 /dev/umad3
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 249, 0 Feb  2 05:58 /dev/umad4
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 249, 1 Feb  2 05:58 /dev/umad5
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 249, 2 Feb  2 05:58 /dev/umad6
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 249, 3 Feb  2 05:58 /dev/umad7
	dl585g2:~ # ls -l /dev/issm*
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 231, 4 Feb  2 05:58 /dev/issm0
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 231, 5 Feb  2 05:58 /dev/issm1
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 231, 6 Feb  2 05:58 /dev/issm2
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 231, 7 Feb  2 05:58 /dev/issm3
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 249, 4 Feb  2 05:58 /dev/issm4
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 249, 5 Feb  2 05:58 /dev/issm5
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 249, 6 Feb  2 05:58 /dev/issm6
	crw-rw---- 1 root root 249, 7 Feb  2 05:58 /dev/issm7

Finally, after one more reset, we see ib_umad loaded first and obtaining the major number of 249.

v1 -> v2:
- update umad and ucm drivers too
