Currently, SMC uses smc->sk.sk_{rcv|snd}buf to create buffers for
send buffer and RMB. And the values of buffer size are from tcp_{w|r}mem
in clcsock.
The buffer size from TCP socket doesn't fit SMC well. Generally, buffers
are usually larger than TCP for SMC-R/-D to get higher performance, for
they are different underlay devices and paths.
So this patch unbinds buffer size from TCP, and introduces two sysctl
knobs to tune them independently. Also, these knobs are per net
namespace and work for containers.

SMC-R tests the viability of link by sending out TEST_LINK LLC
messages over RoCE fabric when connections on link have been
idle for a time longer than keepalive interval (testlink time).
But using tcp_keepalive_time as testlink time maybe not quite
suitable because it is default no less than two hours[1], which
is too long for single link to find peer dead. The active host
will still use peer-dead link (QP) sending messages, and can't
find out until get IB_WC_RETRY_EXC_ERR error CQEs, which takes
more time than TEST_LINK timeout (SMC_LLC_WAIT_TIME) normally.
So this patch introduces a independent sysctl for SMC-R to set
link keepalive time, in order to detect link down in time. The
default value is 30 seconds.

There might be a potential race between SMC-R buffer map and
link group termination.
smc_smcr_terminate_all() | smc_connect_rdma()

| smc_conn_create()
for links in smcibdev |
schedule links down |
| smc_buf_create()
| \- smcr_buf_map_usable_links()
| \- no usable links found,
| (rmb->mr = NULL)
|
| smc_clc_send_confirm()
| \- access conn->rmb_desc->mr[]->rkey
| (panic)
During reboot and IB device module remove, all links will be set
down and no usable links remain in link groups. In such situation
smcr_buf_map_usable_links() should return an error and stop the
CLC flow accessing to uninitialized mr.

One use case would be to extend the cmd field, which is

Previously, the smc and smc_diag modules were automatically loaded as
dependencies of the ism module whenever an ISM device was present.
With the pending rework of the ISM API, the smc module will no longer
automatically be loaded in presence of an ISM device. Usage of an AF_SMC
socket will still trigger loading of the smc modules, but usage of a
netlink socket will not.
This is addressed by setting the correct module aliases.

On long-running enterprise production servers, high-order contiguous
memory pages are usually very rare and in most cases we can only get
fragmented pages.
When replacing TCP with SMC-R in such production scenarios, attempting
to allocate high-order physically contiguous sndbufs and RMBs may result
in frequent memory compaction, which will cause unexpected hung issue
and further stability risks.
So this patch is aimed to allow SMC-R link group to use virtually
contiguous sndbufs and RMBs to avoid potential issues mentioned above.
Whether to use physically or virtually contiguous buffers can be set
by sysctl smcr_buf_type.
Note that using virtually contiguous buffers will bring an acceptable
performance regression, which can be mainly divided into two parts:
1) regression in data path, which is brought by additional address
translation of sndbuf by RNIC in Tx. But in general, translating
address through MTT is fast.
Taking 256KB sndbuf and RMB as an example, the comparisons in qperf
latency and bandwidth test with physically and virtually contiguous
buffers are as follows:
- client:
smc_run taskset -c <cpu> qperf <server> -oo msg_size:1:64K:*2\
-t 5 -vu tcp_{bw|lat}
- server:
smc_run taskset -c <cpu> qperf

2) regression in buffer initialization and destruction path, which is
brought by additional MR operations of sndbufs. But thanks to link
group buffer reuse mechanism, the impact of this kind of regression
decreases as times of buffer reuse increases.
Taking 256KB sndbuf and RMB as an example, latency of some key SMC-R
buffer-related function obtained by bpftrace are as follows:
Function Phys-bufs Virt-bufs
smcr_new_buf_create() 67154 ns 79164 ns
smc_ib_buf_map_sg() 525 ns 928 ns
smc_ib_get_memory_region() 162294 ns 161191 ns
smc_wr_reg_send() 9957 ns 9635 ns
smc_ib_put_memory_region() 203548 ns 198374 ns
smc_ib_buf_unmap_sg() 508 ns 1158 ns

Test environment notes:
1. Above tests run on 2 VMs within the same Host.
2. The NIC is ConnectX-4Lx, using SRIOV and passing through 2 VFs to
the each VM respectively.
3. VMs' vCPUs are binded to different physical CPUs, and the binded
physical CPUs are isolated by `isolcpus=xxx` cmdline.
4. NICs' queue number are set to 1.

Valid values includes:

buffers for better performance and is the default value.
- SMCR_VIRT_CONT_BUFS, which means use virtually contiguous
buffers in case of physically contiguous memory is scarce.
- SMCR_MIXED_BUFS, which means first try to use physically
contiguous buffers. If not available, then use virtually
contiguous buffers.

Some CPU, such as Xeon, can guarantee DMA cache coherency.
So it is no need to use dma sync APIs to flush cache on such CPUs.
In order to avoid calling dma sync APIs on the IO path, use the

creating smc_buf_desc.

smc_ib_sync_sg_for_cpu/device are the ops used for dma memory cache
consistency. Smc sndbufs are dma buffers, where CPU writes data to
it and PCIE device reads data from it. So for sndbufs,
smc_ib_sync_sg_for_device is needed and smc_ib_sync_sg_for_cpu is
redundant as PCIE device will not write the buffers. Smc rmbs
are dma buffers, where PCIE device write data to it and CPU read
data from it. So for rmbs, smc_ib_sync_sg_for_cpu is needed and
smc_ib_sync_sg_for_device is redundant as CPU will not write the buffers.
