[ Upstream commit 833bac7ec392bf75053c8a4fa4c36d4148dac77d ]
Commit 0227f058aa29 ("net/smc: Unbind r/w buffer size from clcsock
and make them tunable") introduced the net.smc.rmem and net.smc.wmem
sysctls to specify the size of buffers to be used for SMC type
connections. This created a regression for users that specified the
buffer size via setsockopt() as the effective buffer size was now
doubled.
Re-introduce the division by 2 in the SMC buffer create code and level
this out by duplicating the net.smc.[rw]mem values used for initializing
sk_rcvbuf/sk_sndbuf at socket creation time. This gives users of both
methods (setsockopt or sysctl) the effective buffer size that they
expect.
Initialize net.smc.[rw]mem from its own constant of 64kB, respectively.
Internal performance tests show that this value is a good compromise
between throughput/latency and memory consumption. Also, this decouples
it from any tuning that was done to net.ipv4.tcp_[rw]mem[1] before the
module for SMC protocol was loaded. Check that no more than INT_MAX / 2
is assigned to net.smc.[rw]mem, in order to avoid any overflow condition
when that is doubled for use in sk_sndbuf or sk_rcvbuf.
While at it, drop the confusing sk_buf_size variable from
__smc_buf_create and name "compressed" buffer size variables more
consistently.
Background:
Before the commit mentioned above, SMC's buffer allocator in
__smc_buf_create() always used half of the sockets' sk_rcvbuf/sk_sndbuf
value as initial value to search for appropriate buffers. If the search
resorted to using a bigger buffer when all buffers of the specified
size were busy, the duplicate of the used effective buffer size is
stored back to sk_rcvbuf/sk_sndbuf.
When available, buffers of exactly the size that a user had specified as
input to setsockopt() were used, despite setsockopt()'s documentation in
"man 7 socket" talking of a mandatory duplication:
[...]
SO_SNDBUF
Sets or gets the maximum socket send buffer in bytes.
The kernel doubles this value (to allow space for book‐
keeping overhead) when it is set using setsockopt(2),
and this doubled value is returned by getsockopt(2).
The default value is set by the
/proc/sys/net/core/wmem_default file and the maximum
allowed value is set by the /proc/sys/net/core/wmem_max
file. The minimum (doubled) value for this option is
2048.
[...]

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.

This patch introduces the sysctl smcr_buf_type for setting
the type of SMC-R sndbufs and RMBs.
Valid values includes:
- SMCR_PHYS_CONT_BUFS, which means use physically contiguous
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.

kernel test robot reports multiple warning for smc_sysctl:
In file included from net/smc/smc_sysctl.c:17:

in reference from the function smc_sysctl_exit() to the variable
.init.data:smc_sysctl_ops
The function smc_sysctl_exit() references
the variable __initdata smc_sysctl_ops.
This is often because smc_sysctl_exit lacks a __initdata
annotation or the annotation of smc_sysctl_ops is wrong.
and
net/smc/smc_sysctl.c: In function 'smc_sysctl_init_net':

Since we don't need global sysctl initialization. To make things
clean and simple, remove the global pernet_operations and
smc_sysctl_{init|exit}. Call smc_sysctl_net_{init|exit} directly
from smc_net_{init|exit}.
Also initialized sysctl_autocorking_size if CONFIG_SYSCTL it not
set, this make sure SMC autocorking is enabled by default if
CONFIG_SYSCTL is not set.

This add a new sysctl: net.smc.autocorking_size
We can dynamically change the behaviour of autocorking
by change the value of autocorking_size.
Setting to 0 disables autocorking in SMC
