Hello Bart, Leon and Max
Hi Laurence,

thanks for the great analysis and the fast response !!

Max had reached out to me to test a new set of patches for SRQ.
I had not tested upstream ib_srpt on an LIO target for quite a
while,
only ib_srp client tests had been run of late.
During a baseline test before applying Max's patches it was
apparent
that something had broken ib_srpt connections within LIO target
since
5.5.

Note thet ib_srp client connectivity with the commit functions
fine,
it's just the target that breaks with this commit.

After a long bisect this is the commit that seems to break it.
While it's not directly code in ib_srpt, its code in mlx5 vport
ethernet connectivity that then breaks ib_srpt connectivity
over
mlx5
IB RDMA with LIO.
I was able to connect in loopback and also from remote initiator
with
this commit.

So I'm not sure that this commit is broken.

I used Bart's scripts to configure the target and to connect to
it
in
loopback (after some modifications for the updated
kernel/sysfs/configfs
interface).

I did see an issue to connect from remote initiator, but after
reloading
openibd in the initiator side I was able to connect.

So I suspect you had the same issue - that also should be
debugged.

I will let Leon and others decide but reverting the below
commit
allows
SRP connectivity to an LIO target to work again.
I added prints to "mlx5_core_modify_hca_vport_context" function
and
found that we don't call it in "pure" mlx5 mode with PFs.

Maybe you can try it too...

I was able to check my patches on my system and I'll send them
soon.

Thanks again Laurence and Bart.

Max, I will test your new patches once we have a decision on
this.

The MODIFY_HCA_VPORT_CONTEXT uses field_selector to mask

according
to
the

bitfield

The thing is without this commit we connect immediately, no delay
no
issue and I am changing nothing else other than reverting here.

So this clearly has a bearing directly on the functionality.

I will look at adding more debug, but with this commit in there is
nor
evidence even of an attempt to connect and fail.

Its silently faling.
please send me all the configuration steps you run after booting the
target + steps in the initiator (can be also in attached file).

I'll try to follow this.

Btw, did you try loopback initiator ?

-Max.


Regards
Laurence





Hi Max

Did not try loopback because here we have actual physical connectity as
that is what our customers use.

Connected back to back with MLX5 cx4 HCA dual ports at EDR 100
Thi sis my standard configuration used for all upstream and Red Hat
kernel testing.

Reboot server and client and then first prepare server

Server
----------

the prepare.sh script run is after boot on the server


#!/bin/bash
./load_modules.sh
./create_ramdisk.sh
targetcli restoreconfig
# Set the srp_sq_size
for i in
/sys/kernel/config/target/srpt/0xfe800000000000007cfe900300726e4e
/sys/kernel/config/target/srpt/0xfe800000000000007cfe900300726e4f
do
	echo 16384 > $i/tpgt_1/attrib/srp_sq_size
done

[root@fedstorage ~]# cat load_modules.sh
#!/bin/bash
modprobe mlx5_ib
modprobe ib_srpt
modprobe ib_srp
modprobe ib_umad

[root@fedstorage ~]# cat ./create_ramdisk.sh
#!/bin/bash
mount -t tmpfs -o size=130g tmpfs /mnt
cd /mnt
for i in `seq 1 30`; do dd if=/dev/zero of=block-$i bs=1024k count=4000
; done



Client
--------

Once server is ready

Run ./start_opensm.sh on client (I sont use the SM on a switch as we
are back to back)

[root@ibclient ~]# cat ./start_opensm.sh
#!/bin/bash
rmmod ib_srpt
opensm -F opensm.1.conf &
opensm -F opensm.2.conf &

I will semail the conf only to you as well as the targecli config as th
eout is long.


Then run start_srp.sh

[root@ibclient ~]# cat ./start_srp.sh
run_srp_daemon  -V -f /etc/ddn/srp_daemon.conf -R 30 -T 10 -t 7000
-ance -i mlx5_0 -p 1 1>/root/srp1.log 2>&1 &
run_srp_daemon  -V -f /etc/ddn/srp_daemon.conf -R 30 -T 10 -t 7000
-ance -i mlx5_1 -p 1 1>/root/srp2.log 2>&1 &

[root@ibclient ~]# cat /etc/ddn/srp_daemon.conf
a      queue_size=128,max_cmd_per_lun=32,max_sect=32768


I see that you're link is IB.

I was working on RoCE link layer with rdma_cm.

I'll try to find some free IB setup tomorrow in my lab..

Can you try login using rdma_cm ? need to load ib_ipoib for that in IB network.

I'm trying to understand whether it's related to the link layer.

p.s. I think the target configuration file didn't arrive.
