[ Upstream commit 6325e01b6cdf4636b721cf7259c1616e3cf28ce2 ]

Since the IB_WR_REG_MR opcode value changed, let's set the PVRDMA device
opcodes explicitly.

[ Upstream commit 9a59739bd01f77db6fbe2955a4fce165f0f43568 ]

This enum has become part of the uABI, as both RXE and the
ib_uverbs_post_send() command expect userspace to supply values from this
enum. So it should be properly placed in include/uapi/rdma.

In userspace this enum is called 'enum ibv_wr_opcode' as part of
libibverbs.h. That enum defines different values for IB_WR_LOCAL_INV,
IB_WR_SEND_WITH_INV, and IB_WR_LSO. These were introduced (incorrectly, it
turns out) into libiberbs in 2015.

The kernel has changed its mind on the numbering for several of the IB_WC
values over the years, but has remained stable on IB_WR_LOCAL_INV and
below.

Based on this we can conclude that there is no real user space user of the
values beyond IB_WR_ATOMIC_FETCH_AND_ADD, as they have never worked via
rdma-core. This is confirmed by inspection, only rxe uses the kernel enum
and implements the latter operations. rxe has clearly never worked with
these attributes from userspace. Other drivers that support these opcodes
implement the functionality without calling out to the kernel.

To make IB_WR_SEND_WITH_INV and related work for RXE in userspace we
choose to renumber the IB_WR enum in the kernel to match the uABI that
userspace has bee using since before Soft RoCE was merged. This is an
overall simpler configuration for the whole software stack, and obviously
can't break anything existing.

<title>License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with a license</title>

<id>urn:sha1:e2be04c7f9958dde770eeb8b30e829ca969b37bb</id>
<content type='text'>
Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either
incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the
license under which the file is supposed to be.  This makes it hard for
compliance tools to determine the correct license.

Update these files with an SPDX license identifier.  The identifier was
chosen based on the license information in the file.

GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license
identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is
the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall
exception:

   NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
   services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
   of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".

This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL
code, without confusing license compliance tools.

Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed
under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX
identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier.  The format
is:
        ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE)

SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be
used instead of the full boiler plate text.  The update does not remove
existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case
basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will
happen in a separate step.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.  See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2.  Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:

   NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
   services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
   of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".

otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.

Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier.  The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception.  SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

<title>IB/core: Add completion queue (cq) object actions</title>

<id>urn:sha1:9ee79fce364216df35ec46e26d20780c3c1644cc</id>
<content type='text'>
Adding CQ ioctl actions:
1. create_cq
2. destroy_cq

This requires adding the following:
1. A specification describing the method
	a. Handler
	b. Attributes specification
		Each attribute is one of the following:
		a. PTR_IN - input data
			    Note: This could be encoded inlined for
				  data &lt; 64bit
		b. PTR_OUT - response data
		c. IDR - idr based object
		d. FD - fd based object
                Blobs attributes (clauses a and b) contain their type,
	        while objects specifications (clauses c and d)
                contains the expected object type (for example, the
                given id should be UVERBS_TYPE_PD) and the required
                access (READ, WRITE, NEW or DESTROY). If a NEW is
                required, the new object's id will be assigned to this
                attribute. All attributes could get UA_FLAGS
                attribute. Currently we support stating that an
		attribute is mandatory or that the specification size
                corresponds to a lower bound (and that this attribute
		could be extended).
		We currently add both default attributes and the two
		generic UHW_IN and UHW_OUT driver specific attributes.
2. Handler
   A handler gets a uverbs_attr_bundle. The handler developer uses
   uverbs_attr_get to fetch an attribute of a given id.
   Each of these attribute groups correspond to the specification
   group defined in the action (clauses 1.b and 1.c respectively).
   The indices of these arrays corresponds to the attribute ids
   declared in the specifications (clause 2).

   The handler is quite simple. It assumes the infrastructure fetched
   all objects and locked, created or destroyed them as required by
   the specification. Pointer (or blob) attributes were validated to
   match their required sizes. After the handler finished, the
   infrastructure commits or rollbacks the objects.

<title>IB/core: Add legacy driver's user-data</title>

<id>urn:sha1:d70724f149b107f8e4062320270d3d8b6713a1bb</id>
<content type='text'>
In this phase, we don't want to change all the drivers to use
flexible driver's specific attributes. Therefore, we add two default
attributes: UHW_IN and UHW_OUT. These attributes are optional in some
methods and they encode the driver specific command data. We add
a function that extract this data and creates the legacy udata over
it.

Driver's data should start from UVERBS_UDATA_DRIVER_DATA_FLAG. This
turns on the first bit of the namespace, indicating this attribute
belongs to the driver's namespace.

<title>IB/core: Add new ioctl interface</title>

<id>urn:sha1:fac9658cabb98afb68ef1630c558864e6f559c07</id>
<content type='text'>
In this ioctl interface, processing the command starts from
properties of the command and fetching the appropriate user objects
before calling the handler.

Parsing and validation is done according to a specifier declared by
the driver's code. In the driver, all supported objects are declared.
These objects are separated to different object namepsaces. Dividing
objects to namespaces is done at initialization by using the higher
bits of the object ids. This initialization can mix objects declared
in different places to one parsing tree using in this ioctl interface.

For each object we list all supported methods. Similarly to objects,
methods are separated to method namespaces too. Namespacing is done
similarly to the objects case. This could be used in order to add
methods to an existing object.

Each method has a specific handler, which could be either a default
handler or a driver specific handler.
Along with the handler, a bunch of attributes are specified as well.
Similarly to objects and method, attributes are namespaced and hashed
by their ids at initialization too. All supported attributes are
subject to automatic fetching and validation. These attributes include
the command, response and the method's related objects' ids.

When these entities (objects, methods and attributes) are used, the
high bits of the entities ids are used in order to calculate the hash
bucket index. Then, these high bits are masked out in order to have a
zero based index. Since we use these high bits for both bucketing and
namespacing, we get a compact representation and O(1) array access.
This is mandatory for efficient dispatching.

Each attribute has a type (PTR_IN, PTR_OUT, IDR and FD) and a length.
Attributes could be validated through some attributes, like:
(*) Minimum size / Exact size
(*) Fops for FD
(*) Object type for IDR

If an IDR/fd attribute is specified, the kernel also states the object
type and the required access (NEW, WRITE, READ or DESTROY).
All uobject/fd management is done automatically by the infrastructure,
meaning - the infrastructure will fail concurrent commands that at
least one of them requires concurrent access (WRITE/DESTROY),
synchronize actions with device removals (dissociate context events)
and take care of reference counting (increase/decrease) for concurrent
actions invocation. The reference counts on the actual kernel objects
shall be handled by the handlers.

|        |
|        |
+--------+

[d] = Hash ids to groups using the high order bits

The right types table is also chosen by using the high bits from
the ids. Currently we have either default or driver specific groups.

Once validation and object fetching (or creation) completed, we call
the handler:
int (*handler)(struct ib_device *ib_dev, struct ib_uverbs_file *ufile,
               struct uverbs_attr_bundle *ctx);

ctx bundles attributes of different namespaces. Each element there
is an array of attributes which corresponds to one namespaces of
attributes. For example, in the usually used case:

 ctx                               core
+----------------------------+     +------------+
