Introduce a 'flags' field to destroy address handle callback and add a
flag that marks whether the callback is executed in an atomic context or
not.
This will allow drivers to wait for completion instead of polling for it
when it is allowed.

Since neither ib_post_send() nor ib_post_recv() modify the data structure
their second argument points at, declare that argument const. This change
makes it necessary to declare the 'bad_wr' argument const too and also to
modify all ULPs that call ib_post_send(), ib_post_recv() or
ib_post_srq_recv(). This patch does not change any functionality but makes
it possible for the compiler to verify whether the
ib_post_(send|recv|srq_recv) really do not modify the posted work request.
To make this possible, only one cast had to be introduce that casts away
constness, namely in rpcrdma_post_recvs(). The only way I can think of to
avoid that cast is to introduce an additional loop in that function or to
change the data type of bad_wr from struct ib_recv_wr ** into int
(an index that refers to an element in the work request list). However,
both approaches would require even more extensive changes than this
patch.

Add the required functions needed to support SRQs. Currently, kernel
clients are not supported. SRQs will only be available in userspace.

This patch simply renames struct ib_ah_attr to
rdma_ah_attr as these fields specify attributes that are
not necessarily specific to IB.

This patch series adds a driver for a paravirtual RDMA device. The
device is developed for VMware's Virtual Machines and allows existing RDMA
applications to continue to use existing Verbs API when deployed in VMs
on ESXi. We recently did a presentation in the OFA Workshop [1] regarding
this device.
Description and RDMA Support
============================
The virtual device is exposed as a dual function PCIe device. One part
is a virtual network device (VMXNet3) which provides networking properties
like MAC, IP addresses to the RDMA part of the device. The networking
properties are used to register GIDs required by RDMA applications to
communicate.
These patches add support and the all required infrastructure for
letting applications use such a device. We support the mandatory Verbs API as
well as the base memory management extensions (Local Inv, Send with Inv and
Fast Register Work Requests). We currently support both Reliable Connected
and Unreliable Datagram QPs but do not support Shared Receive Queues
(SRQs).
Also, we support the following types of Work Requests:
o Send/Receive (with or without Immediate Data)
o RDMA Write (with or without Immediate Data)
o RDMA Read
o Local Invalidate
o Send with Invalidate
o Fast Register Work Requests
This version only adds support for version 1 of RoCE. We will add RoCEv2
support in a future patch. We do support registration of both MAC-based
and IP-based GIDs. I have also created a git tree for our user-level driver
[2].
Testing
=======
We have tested this internally for various types of Guest OS - Red Hat,
Centos, Ubuntu 12.04/14.04/16.04, Oracle Enterprise Linux, SLES 12
using backported versions of this driver. The tests included several
runs of the performance tests (included with OFED), Intel MPI PingPong
benchmark on OpenMPI, krping for FRWRs. Mellanox has been kind enough
to test the backported version of the driver internally on their hardware
using a VMware provided ESX build. I have also applied and tested this
with Doug's k.o/for-4.9 branch (commit 5603910b). Note, that this patch
series should be applied all together. I split out the commits so that
it may be easier to review.
