The checksum offload capability reporting is enabled based on extended verbs.
The capability field has sub-fields for every link layer, and depends on device
cap, each link layer will support specific QP types. These will be reported to
user space.
I'm new to uverbs extensions and looking forward for review comments on that
aspect of the patches.

A new filed csum_cap is added to both ib_query_device. It contains two members:
eth_csum_cap and ib_csum_cap, indicates checksum capability of Ethernet and
Infiniband link layer respectively for different QP types.
Current checksum caps use the following enum members:
- IB_CSUM_SUPPORT_UD: device supports validation/calculation of csum for UD QP.
- IB_CSUM_SUPPORT_RAW: device supports validation/calculation of csum for raw QP.

A combination? Is it possible then to also support calculation without
validation? Maybe we want to receive packets that do have invalid
checksums.

For RX: if corresponding QP is not supported, it will not validate the csum, but packets are still received normally.
For TX: if corresponding QP is not supported for csum calculation and user application sets the IBV_SEND_IP_CSUM flag, it will return error.

I generally don't like to waste this many bits on this little
information. 64 bits total for what only uses 4 bits right now, and
even on the high side would probably only ever use 8 or 12 bits, is
excessive.
That said, it's cleaner and easier to read than something like a double
shift where ib is lower 16 bits, eth is upper 16 bits, so I won't
request you change it, just register my eyebrow raise over the number of
bits used to record so little information. (In fairness, I thought
about make you shrink it down, but the area of the struct you are adding
this to is currently 64bit aligned and it is reasonably likely that the
next item will need 64bit alignment, so saving bits only to possibly
loose them to alignment is a exercise in futility)

This patch highlights something I didn't think about on the previous
patch. Why separate eth/ib if you have per QP flags? The QP denotes
the ib/eth relationship without the need to separate it into two
different caps. In other words, you can never have an IB qp type on eth
because the only eth QP types we support other than RAW are all RDMA and
not IP. Really, there's enough spare bits in ib_device_cap_flags that
you could do away with the new caps entirely. Right now, we support UD
(which we already have a flag for), we can add two flags (for RAW and
RC) and that should cover all of the foreseeable options as that would
allow us to extend IP CSUM support to cover connected mode and cover all
of the current options. I don't see us doing IP traffic in any other
situation, so I thing that should suffice. Bits 25 and 26 could be used
for the two new bits. Then you just need to extend the bits to user space.

Doug,
The vendor may support the offload for a certain QP type only over
certain link. E.g mlx4 support checksum for UD QPs only over IB but
not over Eth, checksum for RC QPs isn't supported, and RAW_PACKET QPs
are available anyway only for Eth links. But if this is what you think
needs to be done, I guess we can do that.
Or.

Exactly my point.
> E.g mlx4 support checksum for UD QPs only over IB but
> not over Eth,
As it should be. We are, after all, talking about IP embedded in UD
RDMA. Over IB that makes sense. Over Eth it makes no sense. If you
are going to do IP on Eth, then just do IP, don't do IP in UD. I see no
reason to support this construct.
> checksum for RC QPs isn't supported,
But could be for IB. The fact that it isn't is why there is an ongoing
effort to work around this issue.

Correct. And this will never be available on IB.
> But if this is what you think
> needs to be done, I guess we can do that.
Here's the only matrix of IP checksumming that makes sense:
1) UD over IB (because it is one of the supported IPoIB types)
2) RC over IB (same as above)
3) Raw ETH over Eth (because IP over Eth makes sense and is a common
type of packet to send on Raw Eth, but Raw Eth will never be sent on IB
as it isn't supported there at all)
Anything else would require adding more Raw ETH QPs elsewhere, or
expanding the IPoIB spec to include more connection types.

OK, I'm good with that, so you want two news bits of device caps and
not the too fancy
matrix of checksum-caps-for-qp-type-and-link-type.

Yes, Bodong, please go ahead and use bits 26,27 of
include/rdma/ib_verbs.h :: enum ib_device_cap_flags
for the two new caps Doug asked.
Or.
