[PATCH for-next 02/13] IB/core: Add support to finalize objects in one transaction

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

 



The new ioctl based infrastructure either commits or rollbacks
all objects of the command as one transaction. In order to do
that, we introduce a notion of dealing with a collection of
objects that are related to a specific action.

This also requires adding a notion of an action and attribute.
An action contains a groups of attributes, where each group
contains several attributes.

For example, an object could be a CQ, which has an action of CREATE_CQ.
This action has multiple attributes. For example, the CQ's new handle
and the comp_channel. Each layer in this hierarchy - objects, actions
and attributes is split into groups. The common example for that is
one group representing the common entities and another one
representing the driver specific entities.

When declaring these actions and attributes, we actually declare
their specifications. When a command is executed, we actually
allocates some space to hold auxiliary information. This auxiliary
information contains meta-data about the required objects, such
as pointers to their type information, pointers to the uobjects
themselves (if exist), etc.
The specification, along with the auxiliary information we allocated
and filled is given to the finalize_objects function.
