2011-05-25RDMA/cma: Add support for netlink statistics exportNir Muchtar
Add callbacks and data types for statistics export of all current devices/ids. The schema for RDMA CM is a series of netlink messages. Each one contains an rdma_cm_stat struct. Additionally, two netlink attributes are created for the addresses for each message (if applicable). Their types used are: RDMA_NL_RDMA_CM_ATTR_SRC_ADDR (The source address for this ID) RDMA_NL_RDMA_CM_ATTR_DST_ADDR (The destination address for this ID) sockaddr_* structs are encapsulated within these attributes. In other words, every transaction contains a series of messages like: -------message 1------- struct rdma_cm_id_stats { __u32 qp_num; __u32 bound_dev_if; __u32 port_space; __s32 pid; __u8 cm_state; __u8 node_type; __u8 port_num; __u8 reserved; } RDMA_NL_RDMA_CM_ATTR_SRC_ADDR attribute - contains the source address RDMA_NL_RDMA_CM_ATTR_DST_ADDR attribute - contains the destination address -------end 1------- -------message 2------- struct rdma_cm_id_stats RDMA_NL_RDMA_CM_ATTR_SRC_ADDR attribute RDMA_NL_RDMA_CM_ATTR_DST_ADDR attribute -------end 2------- Signed-off-by: Nir Muchtar <nirm@voltaire.com> Signed-off-by: Roland Dreier <roland@purestorage.com>
