From ad8a4496757f6f7344011a20a07195bd27e3989c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Moni Shoua Date: Tue, 11 Dec 2018 13:37:52 +0200 Subject: IB/uverbs: Add support to advise_mr Add new ioctl method for the MR object - ADVISE_MR. This command can be used by users to give an advice or directions to the kernel about an address range that belongs to memory regions. A new ib_device callback, advise_mr(), is introduced here to suupport the new command. This command takes the following arguments: - pd: The protection domain to which all memory regions belong - advice: The type of the advice * IB_UVERBS_ADVISE_MR_ADVICE_PREFETCH - Pre-fetch a range of an on-demand paging MR * IB_UVERBS_ADVISE_MR_ADVICE_PREFETCH_WRITE - Pre-fetch a range of an on-demand paging MR with write intention - flags: The properties of the advice * IB_UVERBS_ADVISE_MR_FLAG_FLUSH - Operation must end before return to the caller - sg_list: The list of memory ranges - num_sge: The number of memory ranges in the list - attrs: More attributes to be parsed by the provider Signed-off-by: Moni Shoua Reviewed-by: Guy Levi Signed-off-by: Leon Romanovsky Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe --- include/uapi/rdma/ib_user_ioctl_verbs.h | 9 +++++++++ 1 file changed, 9 insertions(+) (limited to 'include/uapi/rdma/ib_user_ioctl_verbs.h') diff --git a/include/uapi/rdma/ib_user_ioctl_verbs.h b/include/uapi/rdma/ib_user_ioctl_verbs.h index 6cdf192070a2..9dcd345b852a 100644 --- a/include/uapi/rdma/ib_user_ioctl_verbs.h +++ b/include/uapi/rdma/ib_user_ioctl_verbs.h @@ -157,4 +157,13 @@ enum ib_uverbs_read_counters_flags { IB_UVERBS_READ_COUNTERS_PREFER_CACHED = 1 << 0, }; +enum ib_uverbs_advise_mr_advice { + IB_UVERBS_ADVISE_MR_ADVICE_PREFETCH, + IB_UVERBS_ADVISE_MR_ADVICE_PREFETCH_WRITE, +}; + +enum ib_uverbs_advise_mr_flag { + IB_UVERBS_ADVISE_MR_FLAG_FLUSH = 1 << 0, +}; + #endif -- cgit v1.2.3
