[SRU,Yakkety,1/1] net/mlx4_core: Avoid delays during VF driver device shutdown

From: Jack Morgenstein <jackm@dev.mellanox.co.il>

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1672785

Some Hypervisors detach VFs from VMs by instantly causing an FLR event
to be generated for a VF.

In the mlx4 case, this will cause that VF's comm channel to be disabled
before the VM has an opportunity to invoke the VF device's "shutdown"
method.

For such Hypervisors, there is a race condition between the VF's
shutdown method and its internal-error detection/reset thread.

The internal-error detection/reset thread (which runs every 5 seconds) also
detects a disabled comm channel. If the internal-error detection/reset
flow wins the race, we still get delays (while that flow tries repeatedly
to detect comm-channel recovery).

The cited commit fixed the command timeout problem when the
internal-error detection/reset flow loses the race.

This commit avoids the unneeded delays when the internal-error
detection/reset flow wins.

So, NOWAIT and SHUTDOWN are defined to the same value, so it might be
necessary to review it that is going to work as expected. Maybe doing
the shutdown removal is a path to consider (commit
b4353708f5a1c084fd73f1b6fd243b142157b173).

We're engaged to test the driver in the intended scenario and code
path. We have a stable repro for the bug that this fixes.

Thanks, --jrp

Is that on Yakkety, with this Yakkety backport as is?

I am more concerned about the paths that would use SHUTDOWN, have you tested
these as well?

Thanks.

Our friends at Mellanox have, we have been testing VF remove and add
as part of SR-IOV in Azure testing. Our regression tests include
on-premises Hyper-V as well.

Thanks --jrp

Joseph Salisbury April 3, 2017, 1:45 p.m. UTC | #6
I have a Yakkety test kernel now available that included commit
b4353708f5a1c084fd73f1b6fd243b142157b173 and commit
4cbe4dac82e423ecc9a0ba46af24a860853259f4.  Having commit b4353708f5a1c0
removes MLX4_INTERFACE_STATE_SHUTDOWN and all references to it.  It
allows commit 4cbe4dac82e423ecc9a0ba46af24a860853259f4 to pick cleanly
and not require a backport.
 
Xenial did not require b4353708f5a(It reverts commit 9d769311805 which
was added in v4.7-rc6) and it was a clean pick in Xenial.  Zesty already
has commit b4353708f5a.  I think both commits should be added to
Yakkety, not just 4cbe4dac82e4.

I'll post a link to the v2 test kernel in the bug and resubmit a v2 SRU
once everyone agrees thats the way to go.

Thanks,

Joe
