The fourth edition of SMCv2 adds the SMC version 2.1 feature updates for SMC-Dv2 with virtual ISM. Virtual ISM are created and supported mainly by OS or hypervisor software, comparable to IBM ISM which is based on platform firmware or hardware. With the introduction of virtual ISM, SMCv2.1 makes some updates: - Introduce feature bitmask to indicate supplemental features. - Reserve a range of CHIDs for virtual ISM. - Support extended GIDs (128 bits) in CLC handshake. So this patch set aims to implement these updates in Linux kernel. And it acts as the first part of SMC-D virtual ISM extension & loopback-ism [1].

Since there were no major changes, I kept the 'Reviewed-by' label. Other changes in previous versions but not yet acked: - Patch #1: Some minor changes in subject and fix the format issue (length exceeds 80 columns) compared to v3. - Patch #5: removes useless ini->feature_mask assignment in __smc_connect() and smc_listen_v2_check() compared to v4. - Patch #8: new added, compared to v3.
Looks like I accidentally modified my send-email script.. There is a typo in the CC-ed mail address list: lzinux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -> linux-kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
