With clang 15, the following -Werror warning is produced:
sys/dev/mthca/mthca_cmd.c:662:23: error: variable 'tc' set but not used [-Werror,-Wunused-but-set-variable]
int ts __unused = 0, tc = 0;
^
The 'ts' and 'tc' variables are eventually used only in mthca_dbg()
macros, if CONFIG_INFINIBAND_MTHCA_DEBUG is defined. Ensure 'ts' and
'tc' are only declared and used when CONFIG_INFINIBAND_MTHCA_DEBUG is
defined.

Overview:
This is the first stage of a RDMA stack upgrade introducing kernel
changes only based on Linux 5.7-rc1.
This patch is based on about four main areas of work:
- Update of the IB uobjects system:
- The memory holding so-called AH, CQ, PD, SRQ and UCONTEXT objects
is now managed by ibcore. This also require some changes in the
kernel verbs API. The updated verbs changes are typically about
initialize and deinitialize objects, and remove allocation and
free of memory.
- Update of the uverbs IOCTL framework:
- The parsing and handling of user-space commands has been
completely refactored to integrate with the updated IB uobjects
system.
- Various changes and updates to the generic uverbs interfaces in
device drivers including the new uAPI surface.
- The mlx5_ib_devx.c in mlx5ib and related mlx5 core changes.
Dependencies:
- The mlx4ib driver code has been updated with the minimum changes
needed.
- The mlx5ib driver code has been updated with the minimum changes
needed including DV support.
Compatibility:
- All user-space facing APIs are backwards compatible after this
change.
- All kernel-space facing RDMA APIs are backwards compatible after
this change, with exception of ib_create_ah() and ib_destroy_ah()
which takes a new flag.
- The "ib_device_ops" structure exist, but only contains the driver ID
and some structure sizes.
Differences from Linux:
- Infiniband drivers must use the INIT_IB_DEVICE_OPS() macro to set
the sizes needed for allocating various IB objects, when adding
IB device instances.
Security:
- PRIV_NET_RAW is needed to use raw ethernet transmit features.
- PRIV_DRIVER is needed to use other privileged operations.
Based on upstream Linux, Torvalds (5.7-rc1):

Since neither ib_post_send() nor ib_post_recv() modify the data structure
their second argument points at, declare that argument const. This change
makes it necessary to declare the 'bad_wr' argument const too and also to
modify all ULPs that call ib_post_send(), ib_post_recv() or
ib_post_srq_recv(). This patch does not change any functionality but makes
it possible for the compiler to verify whether the
ib_post_(send|recv|srq_recv) really do not modify the posted work request.

All callers to ib_modify_qp_is_ok() provides enum ib_qp_state makes the
checks of out-of-scope redundant. Let's remove them together with updating
function signature to return boolean result.
While at it remove unused "ll" parameter from ib_modify_qp_is_ok().

Since commit 8fa6abb6f4 ("Expose clang's alignment builtins and use
them for roundup2/rounddown2"), clang emits warnings for several
alignment operations in these drivers because the operation is a no-op.
The compiler is arguably being too strict here, but in the meantime
let's silence the warnings by conditionally compiling the alignment
operations.

Currently the linking order of the infiniband, IB, modules decide in which
order the clients are attached and detached. For example one IB client may
use resources from another IB client. This can lead to a potential deadlock
at shutdown. For example if the ipoib is unregistered after the ib_multicast
client is detached, then if ipoib is using multicast addresses a deadlock may
happen, because ib_multicast will wait for all its resources to be freed before
returning from the remove method.
Fix this by using module_xxx_order() instead of module_xxx().

Creating a UD address handle from user-space or from the kernel-space,
when the link layer is ethernet, requires resolving the remote L3
address into a L2 address. Doing this from the kernel is easy because
the required ARP(IPv4) and ND6(IPv6) address resolving APIs are readily
available. In userspace such an interface does not exist and kernel
help is required.
It should be noted that in an IP-based GID environment, the GID itself
does not contain all the information needed to resolve the destination
IP address. For example information like VLAN ID and SCOPE ID, is not
part of the GID and must be fetched from the GID attributes. Therefore
a source GID should always be referred to as a GID index. Instead of
going through various racy steps to obtain information about the
GID attributes from user-space, this is now all done by the kernel.
This patch optimises the L3 to L2 address resolving using the existing
create address handle uverbs interface, retrieving back the L2 address
as an additional user-space information structure.
This commit combines the following Linux upstream commits:
IB/core: Let create_ah return extended response to user
IB/core: Change ib_resolve_eth_dmac to use it in create AH
IB/mlx5: Make create/destroy_ah available to userspace
IB/mlx5: Use kernel driver to help userspace create ah
IB/mlx5: Report that device has udata response in create_ah
