RoCEv2 Annex states that for RoCEv2 over IPv4, the corresponding
IPv4 address is encoded into the GID according to the following rule:
GID= :ffff:<IPv4 address>
Remove the 0xff0e prefix for RoCEv2 packets with IPv4 and leave it
zeroed and change rdma_is_multicast_addr() to consider the new logic.

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

This patch ensures the GID index is always used as a basis of resolving
incoming RDMA connections, as compared to the GID value itself.
Background:
On a per infiniband port basis, the GID identifier is not a unique identifier!
This assumption falls apart when VLAN ID, IPv6 scope ID and RoCE type,
as supported by RoCE v2, is taken into account. This additional
information is stored in the so-called GID attributes and is needed to
correctly identify the destination network interface for an incoming
connection.
Different VLANs are allowed to define the same IPv4 addresses and especially
for the default IPv6 link-local addresses or when using so-called containers
or jails, this is true.
The VNET information for the destination network interface is needed in
order to perform the L2 address lookup in the right Virtual Network Stack
context.
Consequently old functions previously used by RoCE v1, like
rdma_addr_find_smac_by_sgid() are impossible to support, because
there can be multiple identical GIDs associated with the same
infiniband port, and the answer to such a request becomes undefined.
This function has been removed.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
No functional change intended.
iWarp and RoCE in ibcore. The selection of RDMA_PS_TCP can not be used
to indicate iWarp protocol use. Backport the proper IB device
capabilities from Linux upstream to distinguish between iWarp and
RoCE. Only allocate the additional socket required for iWarp for RDMA
IDs when at least one iWarp device present. This resolves
interopability issues between iWarp and RoCE in ibcore

like other PCI network drivers. The sys/ofed directory is now mainly
reserved for generic infiniband code, with exception of the mthca driver.
- Add new manual page, mlx4en(4), describing how to configure and load
mlx4en.
- All relevant driver C-files are now prefixed mlx4, mlx4_en and
mlx4_ib respectivly to avoid object filename collisions when compiling
the kernel. This also fixes an issue with proper dependency file
generation for the C-files in question.
- Device mlxen is now device mlx4en and depends on device mlx4, see
mlx4en(4). Only the network device name remains unchanged.
- The mlx4 and mlx4en modules are now built by default on i386 and
amd64 targets. Only building the mlx4ib module depends on
WITH_OFED=YES .

- Added check that the SCOPE ID is only restored for IPv6 linklocal
addresses.
- Changes made by r237263 in the "cma_bind_addr()" function did not
check if the socket address was of type IPv6 and used the IPv4
socket address for IPv6 addresses. This caused the function to
fail. Fixed this.
- In the "rdma_gid2ip()" function and some other places the "sin6_len"
and "sin6_scope_id" fields were not set for IPv6 socket
addresses. Fixed this.
- The scope ID is not stored as part of the GID entries and must be
passed as an argument to "rdma_gid2ip()".
- Added new method to "struct ib_device" which returns a pointer to
the network interface which belongs to the given infiniband
device. This is needed to be able to get the scope ID for IPv6
addresses via the associated ethernet interface.
- Added convenience function, "rdma_get_ipv6_scope_id()", to get the
scope ID for IPv6 addresses.
- Implemented new "get_netdev" method for mlx4ib. Other IB controller
drivers which want to support IPv6 addresses needs to implement this
aswell.
- Bumped the FreeBSD version due to changing "struct ib_device".

The iWARP Connection Manager (CM) on FreeBSD creates a TCP socket to
represent an iWARP endpoint when the connection is over TCP. For
servers the current approach is to invoke create_listen callback for
each iWARP RNIC registered with the CM. This doesn't work too well for
INADDR_ANY because a listen on any TCP socket already notifies all
hardware TOEs/RNICs of the new listener. This patch fixes the server
side of things for FreeBSD. We've tried to keep all these modifications
in the iWARP/TCP specific parts of the OFED infrastructure as much as
possible.

- Move all files related to the LinuxKPI into sys/compat/linuxkpi and
its subfolders.
- Update sys/conf/files and some Makefiles to use new file locations.
- Added description of COMPAT_LINUXKPI to sys/conf/NOTES which in turn
adds the LinuxKPI to all LINT builds.
- The LinuxKPI can be added to the kernel by setting the
COMPAT_LINUXKPI option. The OFED kernel option no longer builds the
LinuxKPI into the kernel. This was done to keep the build rules for
the LinuxKPI in sys/conf/files simple.
- Extend the LinuxKPI module to include support for USB by moving the
Linux USB compat from usb.ko to linuxkpi.ko.
- Bump the FreeBSD_version.
- A universe kernel build has been done.
