> Subject: [PATCH] IB/rxe: Revise the ib_wr_opcode enum
>
> This enum has become part of the uABI, as both RXE and the
> ib_uverbs_post_send() command expect userspace to supply values from
> this enum. So it should be properly placed in include/uapi/rdma.
>
> In userspace this enum is called 'enum ibv_wr_opcode' as part of
> libibverbs.h. That enum defines different values for
> IB_WR_LOCAL_INV, IB_WR_SEND_WITH_INV, and IB_WR_LSO. These were
> introduced (incorrectly, it turns out) into libiberbs in 2015.
>
> The kernel has changed its mind on the numbering for several of the
> IB_WC values over the years, but has remained stable on
> IB_WR_LOCAL_INV and below.
>
> Based on this we can conclude that there is no real user space user
> of the values beyond IB_WR_ATOMIC_FETCH_AND_ADD, as they have never
> worked via rdma-core. This is confirmed by inspection, only rxe uses
> the kernel enum and implements the latter operations. rxe has
> clearly never worked with these attributes from userspace. Other
> drivers that support these opcodes implement the functionality
> without calling out to the kernel.
>
> To make IB_WR_SEND_WITH_INV and related work for RXE in userspace we
> choose to renumber the IB_WR enum in the kernel to match the uABI
> that userspace has bee using since before Soft RoCE was merged. This
> is an overall simpler configuration for the whole software stack,
> and obviously can't break anything existing.
