[PATCH V6 0/9] iSER support for iWARP

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The following series implements support for iWARP transports in the iSER
initiator and target.  This is based on v4.2-rc3.

I know we're in the middle of some API changes that will affect the isert
patches in this series, but I wanted to get these out for another round
of review.  I can merge the isert changes on top of the new API once
it solidifies and we have a staging tree for them.  My goal is to get
this series in for 4.3, so if the API changes don't gel fairly soon,
I ask that we consider pulling this series in first.  But I'm definitly
willing to help get this -and- the API stuff in for 4.3.

Changes since V5:

The big change in V6 is to introduce new register/unregister functions in isert
to use FRMRs + local dma lkey for devices that support this yet do not
support DIF/PI.  So iWARP devices do not require a DMA-MR.

svcrdma patch added to use max_sge_rd.

reordered the series some:
	patch 1 is the small iser changes to support iwarp
	patches 2..5 fix drivers to set max_sge_rd and ULPs to use them
	patches 6-9 enhance isert to support iwarp

Changes since V4:

iser: fixedcompiler warning

isert: back to setting REMOTE_WRITE only for iWARP devices

Changes since V3:

Fixed commit messages based on feedback.

iser: adjust max_sectors

isert: split into 2 patches

isert: always set REMOTE_WRITE for dma mrs

Changes since V2:

The transport independent work is removed from this series and will
be submitted in a subsequent series.  This V3 series now enables iWARP
using existing core services.

Changes since V1:

Introduce and use transport-independent RDMA core services for allocating
DMA MRs and computing fast register access flags.

Correctly set the device max_sge_rd capability in several rdma device
drivers.

isert: use device capability max_sge_rd for the read sge depth.

isert: change max_sge to max_write_sge in struct isert_conn.
