The most important change is the replacement of sysfs by a generic netlink solution in patch 04. And I tried to get rid of the __packed attributes. There are still a few usages left due to SMC-R protocol defined structures. V4 changes: The order of patches 03 and 04 for pnet table management and SMC IB-client establishing has been exchanged, since pnet table management is now built on top of smc_ib_devices. Patch 01: Use EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(). Patch 02: Define "use_fallback" as bool. Get rid of useless smc_sock fields clearing in smc_sock_alloc(), since sk_alloc() clears out the memory. Patch 03: Postpone smc_ib_remember_port_attr() call till ib_device is mentioned in the pnet table. Patch 04: Replace sysfs-usage by a generic netlink approach for pnet table configuration. Change layout of pnet table entries to reference net_device and ib_device instead of dealing with names of net_devices and ib_devices. Patch 05: Adapt "use_fallback" usages to new type bool. Get rid of useless smc_sock fields clearing in smc_sock_alloc() Avoid __packed where possible. Check if clc responses are not too big. Patch 09: Postpone smc_setup_per_ibdev till the first connection with this ib_device is really created. Patch 11: Get rid of __packed usage. V3 changes: Patch 05: Remove unneeded DEFINE_WAIT Patch 06: Improve synchronization of link group creation Patch 07: Rename peer_rmbe_len into peer_rmbe_size to be more consistent Patch 09: Avoid calls of ib_get_memory_region with IB_ACCESS_LOCAL_WRITE, use new default local_dma_lkey from protection domain as lkey instead. Remove no longer needed function smc_ib_dereg_memory_region(). Patch 14: Switch to state ACTIVE only if still in state INIT. Return 0 for recvmsg invoked in a socket closing state. Allow getname call in state APPCLOSEWAIT1 Do not trigger destruction of a socket-in-error queued in accept queue. During cleanup of accept queue, make sure sockets are destructed, and sockets in fallback mode are handled appropriately. When freeing sndbufs/rmbs, remove them from their list and free the entry. Use add_wait_queue() and remove_wait_queue() in close wait functions. If actively closing a socket in state for PEERFINCLOSEWAIT, keep this state. If passively closing a socket while bytes are to be received, move to state APPCLOSEWAIT1. If actively aborting a socket, skip sending the close_abort flag, since RDMA communication is no longer possible. When terminating a link group, do not schedule link group freeing a 2nd time, since already done when unregistering the last remaining connection. Patch 15: Introduce smc_diag module for monitoring SMC protocol sockets. This replaces the old patch 0015 dealing with procfs. V2 changes: Patch 0002: Add SMC versions for family key strings in net/core/sock.c. Patch 0006: initialize rb_tree. Patch 0007: Get rid of unneeded use of xchg() in smc_sndbuf_unuse() and smc_rmb_unuse(). Patch 0008: Correct error checking logic for ib_function calls. Define struct smc_link field wr_tx_id as atomic_long_t. Use "do_div" instead of "%" to be architecture-independent. Patch 0009: Correct error checking logic for ib_function calls. Patch 0011: Remove xchg() calls in cursor handling. Use atomic64_t for cursor overlays on 64-bit architectures. If not available, use plain u64 and add locking for cursor reading and writing. Implement smc_curs_add() without modulo operator "%". Patch 0012: Remove xchg() calls in cursor handling. Implement smc_tx_rdma_writes() without module operator "%". Patch 0013: Remove xchg() calls in cursor handling. Patch 0014: Return type bool in smc_wr_tx_has_pending(). Remove unneeded semicolon in smc_close_shutdown_write(). Call smc_close_active() in non-fallback case only. Get rid of duplicate schedule of sock_put_work(). Take nested sock_lock in smc_listen_work(). Start close stream_wait in case of prepared sends only. Patch 0015: Remove unneeded socket ref_count in smc_proc_seq_show(). Take lock before list_empty check in smc_proc_sock_list_del(). These patches are the initial part of the implementation of the "Shared Memory Communications-RDMA" (SMC-R) protocol as defined in RFC7609 [1]. While SMC-R does not aim to replace TCP, it taps a wealth of existing data center TCP socket applications to become more efficient without the need for rewriting them. SMC-R uses RDMA over Converged Ethernet (RoCE) to save CPU consumption. For instance, when running 10 parallel connections with uperf, we measured a decrease of 60% in CPU consumption with SMC-R compared to TCP/IP (with throughput and latency comparable; measured on x86_64 with the same RoCE card and port). SMC-R does not require an RDMA communication manager (RDMA CM). SMC-R inherits TCP qualities such as reliable connections, host-based firewall packet filtering (on connection establishment) and unmodified application of communication encryption such as TLS (transport layer security) or SSL (secure sockets layer). Since original TCP is used to establish SMC-R connections, load balancers and packet inspection based on TCP/IP connection establishment continue to work for SMC-R. On the other hand, using SMC-R implies: - either involving a preload library when invoking the unchanged TCP-application or slightly modifying the source by simply changing the socket family in the socket() call - accepting extra overhead and latency in connection establishment due to SMC Connection Layer Control (CLC) handshake - explicit coupling of RoCE ports with Ethernet ports - not routable as currently built on RoCE V1 - bypassing of packet-based networking features - filtering (netfilter) - sniffing (libpcap, packet sockets, (E)BPF) - traffic control (scheduling, shaping) - bypassing of IP-header based socket options - bypassing of memory buffer (pressure) management - unusable together with IPsec Overview of the SMC-R Protocol described in informational RFC 7609 SMC-R is an open protocol that provides RDMA capabilities over RoCE transparently for applications exploiting TCP sockets. A new socket protocol family PF_SMC is introduced. There are no changes required to applications using the sockets API for TCP stream sockets other than the specification of the new socket family AF_SMC. Unmodified applications can be used by means of a dynamic preload shared library which rewrites the socket API call socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP) into socket(AF_SMC, SOCK_STREAM, IPPROTO_TCP). SMC-R re-uses the address family AF_INET for all addressing purposes around struct sockaddr.

Reversed client server roles cause an own link group. A link is a logical point-to-point connection based on an infiniband reliable connected queue pair (RC-QP) between two RoCE ports (MACs and GIDs) of a peer pair. A link group can have 1..8 links for failover and load balancing. This initial Linux implementation always has 1 link per link group. Each link group on a peer can have 1..255 remote memory buffers (RMBs). If more RMBs are needed, a peer can open another link group (this initial Linux implementation) or fall back to TCP. Each RMB has its own particular size and its own (R)DMA mapping and credentials (rtoken consisting of rkey and RDMA "virtual address"). This initial Linux implementation uses physically contiguous memory for RMBs but we are working towards scattered memory because of memory fragmentation. Each RMB has 1..255 RMB elements (RMBEs) of equal size to provide multiplexing of connections within an RMB. An RMBE is the RDMA Write destination organized as wrapping ring buffer for data transmit of a particular connection in one direction (duplex by means of mirror symmetry as with TCP). This initial Linux implementation always has 1 RMBE per RMB and thus an individual RMB for each connection.

A PNET table can contain an arbitrary number of PNETIDs. Each PNETID contains exactly one (Ethernet) network device name and one or more RoCE Infiniband device names. Each device name can only exist in at most one PNETID (no overlapping). This initial Linux implementation allows at most one RoCE Infiniband device name per PNETID. After a new TCP connection is established, the network device name used for egress traffic with the TCP connection's local source IP address is used as key to lookup the unique PNETID, and the RoCE Infiniband device of this PNETID is used to switch data communication from TCP to RDMA during SMC CLC handshake. Problem determination: A protocol dissector is available with upstream wireshark for formatting SMC-R related RoCE LAN traffic.
