[PATCH for-next 0/4] RDMA/erdma: Add a new doorbell allocation mechanism

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

 



Hi,

This series adds a new doorbell allocation mechanism to meet the
the isolation requirement for userspace applications. Two main change
points in this patch set: One is that we extend the bar space for doorbell
allocation, and the other one is that we associate QPs/CQs with the
allocated doorbells for authorization. We also keep the original doorbell
mechanism for compatibility, but only used under CAP_SYS_RAWIO to prevent
non-privileged access, which suggested by Jason before.

- #1 configures the current PAGE_SIZE to hardware, so that hardware can
  organize the mmio space properly.
- #2~#3 implement the new doorbell allocation mechanism.
- #4 refactors the doorbell allocation part to make code more simpler and
  cleaner.

Thanks,
Cheng Xu
