RDMA Aware Networks Programming User Manual

Programming Examples Using IBV Verbs

This chapter provides code examples using the IBV Verbs

The following is a synopsis of the functions in the programming example, in the order that they are called.

Main

Parse command line. The user may set the TCP port, device name, and device port for the test. If set, these values will override default values in config. The last parameter is the server name. If the server name is set, this designates a server to connect to and therefore puts the program into client mode. Otherwise the program is in server mode.

Call print_config.

Call resources_init.

Call resources_create.

Call connect_qp.

If in server mode, do a call post_send with IBV_WR_SEND operation.

Call poll_completion. Note that the server side expects a completion from the SEND request and the client side expects a RECEIVE completion.

If in client mode, show the message we received via the RECEIVE operation, otherwise, if we are in server mode, load the buffer with a new message.

Sync client<->server.

At this point the server goes directly to the next sync. All RDMA operations are done strictly by the client.

***Client only ***

Call post_send with IBV_WR_RDMA_READ to perform a RDMA read of server’s buffer.

Call poll_completion.

Show server’s message.

Setup send buffer with new message.

Call post_send with IBV_WR_RDMA_WRITE to perform a RDMA write of server’s buffer.

Call poll_completion.

*** End client only operations ***

Sync client<->server.

If server mode, show buffer, proving RDMA write worked.

Call resources_destroy.

Free device name string.

Done.

print_config

Print out configuration information.

resources_init

Clears resources struct.

resources_create

Call sock_connect to connect a TCP socket to the peer.

Get the list of devices, locate the one we want, and open it.

Free the device list.

Get the port information.

Create a PD.

Create a CQ.

Allocate a buffer, initialize it, register it.

Create a QP.

sock_connect

If client, resolve DNS address of server and initiate a connection to it.

If server, listen for incoming connection on indicated port.

connect_qp

Call modify_qp_to_init.

Call post_receive.

Call sock_sync_data to exchange information between server and client.

Call modify_qp_to_rtr.

Call modify_qp_to_rts.

Call sock_sync_data to synchronize client<->server

modify_qp_to_init

Transition QP to INIT state.

post_receive

Prepare a scatter/gather entry for the receive buffer.

Prepare an RR.

Post the RR.

sock_sync_data

Using the TCP socket created with sock_connect, synchronize the given set of data between client and the server. Since this function is blocking, it is also called with dummy data to synchronize the timing of the client and server.

modify_qp_to_rtr

Transition QP to RTR state.

modify_qp_to_rts

Transition QP to RTS state.

post_send

Prepare a scatter/gather entry for data to be sent (or received in RDMA read case).

Create an SR. Note that IBV_SEND_SIGNALED is redundant.

If this is an RDMA operation, set the address and key.

Post the SR.

poll_completion

Poll CQ until an entry is found or MAX_POLL_CQ_TIMEOUT milliseconds are reached.

resources_destroy

Release/free/deallocate all items in resource struct.

This code example for Multicast, uses RDMA-CM and VPI (and hence can be run both over IB and over LLE).

Notes:

  1. In order to run the multicast example on either IB or LLE, no change is needed to the test's code. However if RDMA_CM is used, it is required that the network interface will be configured and up (whether it is used over RoCE or over IB).

  2. For the IB case, a join operation is involved, yet it is performed by the rdma_cm kernel code.

  3. For the LLE case, no join is required. All MGIDs are resolved into MACs at the host.

  4. To inform the multicast example which port to use, you need to specify "-b <IP address>” to bind to the desired device port.

Main

  1. Get command line parameters.

    m - MC address, destination port

    M - unmapped MC address, requires also bind address (parameter “b”)

    s - sender flag.

    b - bind address.

    c - connections amount.

    C - message count.

    S - message size.

    p - port space (UDP default; IPoIB)

  2. Create event channel to receive asynchronous events.

  3. Allocate Node and creates an identifier that is used to track communication information

  4. Start the “run” main function.

  5. On ending - release and free resources.

API definition files: rdma/rdma_cma.h and infiniband/verbs.h

Run

  1. Get source (if provided for binding) and destination addresses - convert the input addresses to socket presentation.

  2. Joining:

    1. For all connections:
      if source address is specifically provided, then bind the rdma_cm object to the corresponding network interface. (Associates a source address with an rdma_cm identifier).
      if unmapped MC address with bind address provided, check the remote address and then bind.

    2. Poll on all the connection events and wait that all rdma_cm objects joined the MC group.

  3. Send & receive:

    1. If sender: send the messages to all connection nodes (function “post_sends”).

    2. If receiver: poll the completion queue (function “poll_cqs”) till messages arrival.

On ending - release network resources (per all connections: leaves the multicast group and detaches its associated QP from the group)

Automatic Path Migration (APM)

//* * Compile Command: * gcc apm.c -o apm -libverbs -lrdmacm * * Description: * This example demonstrates Automatic Path Migration (APM). The basic flow is * as follows: * 1. Create connection between client and server * 2. Set the alternate path details on each side of the connection * 3. Perform send operations back and forth between client and server * 4. Cause the path to be migrated (manually or automatically) * 5. Complete sends using the alternate path * * There are two ways to cause the path to be migrated. * 1. Use the ibv_modify_qp verb to set path_mig_state = IBV_MIG_MIGRATED * 2. Assuming there are two ports on at least one side of the connection, and * each port has a path to the other host, pull out the cable of the original * port and watch it migrate to the other port. * * Running the Example: * This example requires a specific IB network configuration to properly * demonstrate APM. Two hosts are required, one for the client and one for the * server. At least one of these two hosts must have a IB card with two ports. * Both of these ports should be connected to the same subnet and each have a * route to the other host through an IB switch. * The executable can operate as either the client or server application. Start * the server side first on one host then start the client on the other host. With default parameters, the * client and server will exchange 100 sends over 100 seconds. During that time, * manually unplug the cable connected to the original port of the two port * host, and watch the path get migrated to the other port. It may take up to * a minute for the path to migrated. To see the path get migrated by software, * use the -m option on the client side. * * Server: * ./apm -s * * Client (-a is IP of remote interface): * ./apm -a 192.168.1.12 * */   #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> #include <errno.h> #include <getopt.h> #include <rdma/rdma_verbs.h>   #define VERB_ERR(verb, ret) \ fprintf(stderr, "%s returned %d errno %d\n", verb, ret, errno)   /* Default parameter values */ #define DEFAULT_PORT "51216" #define DEFAULT_MSG_COUNT 100 #define DEFAULT_MSG_LENGTH 1000000 #define DEFAULT_MSEC_DELAY 500   /* Resources used in the example */ struct context { /* User parameters */ int server; char *server_name; char *server_port; int msg_count; int msg_length; int msec_delay; uint8_t alt_srcport; uint16_t alt_dlid; uint16_t my_alt_dlid; int migrate_after;   /* Resources */ struct rdma_cm_id *id; struct rdma_cm_id *listen_id; struct ibv_mr *send_mr; struct ibv_mr *recv_mr; char *send_buf; char *recv_buf; pthread_t async_event_thread; };   /* * Function: async_event_thread * * Input: * arg The context object * * Output: * none * * Returns: * NULL * * Description: * Reads any Asynchronous events that occur during the sending of data * and prints out the details of the event.

Shared Received Queue (SRQ)

/* * Compile Command: * gcc srq.c -o srq -libverbs -lrdmacm * * Description: * Both the client and server use an SRQ. A number of Queue Pairs (QPs) are * created (ctx.qp_count) and each QP uses the SRQ. The connection between the * client and server is established using the IP address details passed on the * command line. After the connection is established, the client starts * blasting sends to the server and stops when the maximum work requests * (ctx.max_wr) have been sent. When the server has received all the sends, it * performs a send to the client to tell it to continue. The process repeats * until the number of requested number of sends (ctx.msg_count) have been * performed. * * Running the Example: * The executable can operate as either the client or server application. It * can be demonstrated on a simple fabric of two nodes with the server * application running on one node and the client application running on the * other. Each node must be configured to support IPoIB and the IB interface * (ex. ib0) must be assigned an IP Address. Finally, the fabric must be * initialized using OpenSM. * * Server (-a is IP of local interface): * ./srq -s -a 192.168.1.12 * * Client (-a is IP of remote interface): * ./srq -a 192.168.1.12 * */   #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <string.h> #include <errno.h> #include <getopt.h> #include <rdma/rdma_verbs.h>   #define VERB_ERR(verb, ret) \ fprintf(stderr, "%s returned %d errno %d\n", verb, ret, errno)   /* Default parameters values */ #define DEFAULT_PORT "51216" #define DEFAULT_MSG_COUNT 100 #define DEFAULT_MSG_LENGTH 100000 #define DEFAULT_QP_COUNT 4 #define DEFAULT_MAX_WR 64   /* Resources used in the example */ struct context { /* User parameters */ int server;

Dynamically Connected Transport

The Dynamically Connected (DC) transport provides reliable transport services from a DC Initiator (DCI) to a DC Target (DCT). A DCI can send data to multiple targets on the same or different subnet, and a DCT can simultaneously service traffic from multiple DCIs. No explicit connections are setup by the user, with the target DCT being identified by an address vector similar to that used in UD transport, DCT number, and DC access key.

DC Usage Model

  • Query device is used to detect if the DC transport is supported, and if so what are it's characteristics

  • User creates DCI's. The number of DCI's depends on the user's strategy for handling concurrent data transmissions.

  • User defines a DC Access Key, and initializes a DCT using this access key

  • User can query the DCI with the routine ibv_exp_query_qp(), and can query the DCT with the ibv_exp_query_dct() routine.

  • User can arm the DCT, so that an event is generated when a DC Access Key violation occurs.

  • Send work requests are posted to the DCI's. Data can be sent to a different DCT only after all previous sends complete, so send CQE's can be used to detect such completions.

  • The CQ associated with the DCT is used to detect data arrival.

  • Destroy resources when done

Query Device

The function int ibv_exp_query_device(struct ibv_context *context, struct ibv_exp_device_attr *attr)

is used to query for device capabilities. The flag IBV_EXP_DEVICE_DC_TRANSPORT in the field exp_atomic_cap of the struct ibv_exp_device_attr defines if the DC transport is supported.

The fields,

int max_dc_req_rd_atom;

int max_dc_res_rd_atom;

in the same structure describe DC's atomic support characteristics.

Create DCT

/* create a DC target object */

struct ibv_dct *ibv_exp_create_dct(struct ibv_context *context,

struct ibv_exp_dct_init_attr *attr);

  • context - Context to the InfiniBand device as returned from ibv_open_device.

  • attr - Defines attributes of the DCT and include

    • Struct ibv_pd *pd - The PD to verify access validity with respect to protection domains

    • struct ibv_cq *cq - CQ used to report receive completions

    • Struct ibv_srq *srq - The SRQ that will provide the received buffers.
      Note that the PD is not checked against the PD of the scatter entry. This check is done with the PD of the DC target.

    • dc_key - A 64 bit key associated with the DCT.

    • port - The port number this DCT is bound to

    • access flags - Semantics similar to RC QPs

      • remote read

      • remote write

      • remote atomics

  • min_rnr_timer - Minimum rnr nak time required from the requester between successive requests of a message that was previously rejected due to insufficient receive buffers. IB spec 9.7.5.2.8

  • tclass- Used by packets sent by the DCT in case GRH is used

  • flow_label - Used by packets sent by the DCT in case GRH is used

  • mtu - MTU

  • pkey_index - pkey index used by the DC target

  • gid_index - Gid (e.g., all caps) index associated with the DCT. Used to verify incoming packets if GRH is used. This field in mandatory

  • hop_limit - Used by packets sent by the DCT in case GRH is used

  • Create flags

Destroy DCT

/* destroy a DCT object */

int ibv_exp_destroy_dct(struct ibv_exp_dct *dct);

Destroy a DC target. This call may take some time till all DCRs are disconnected.

Query DCT

/* query DCT attributes */

int ibv_exp_query_dct(struct ibv_exp_dct *dct, struct ibv_exp_dct_attr *attr);

Attributes queried are:

  • state

  • cq

  • access_flags

  • min_rnr_flags

  • pd

  • tclass

  • flow_label

  • dc_key

  • mtu

  • port

  • pkey_index

  • gid_index

  • hop_limit

  • key_violations

  • pd

  • srq

  • cq

Arm DCT

A DC target can be armed to request notification when DC key violations occur. After return from a call to ibv_exp_arm_dct, the DC target is moved into the “ARMED” state. If a packet targeting this DCT with a wrong key is received, the DCT moves to the “FIRED” state and the event IBV_EXP_EVENT_DCT_KEY_VIOLATION is generated. The user can read these events by calling ibv_get_async_event. Events must be acked with ibv_ack_async_event.

struct ibv_exp_arm_attr {

uint32_t comp_mask;

};

int ibv_exp_arm_dct(struct ibv_exp_dct *dct,

struct ibv_exp_arm_attr *attr);

  • dct - Pointer to a previously create DC target

  • attr - Pointer to arm DCT attributes. This struct has a single comp_mask field that must be zero in this version

Create DCI

A DCI is created by calling ibv_exp_create_qp() with a new QP type, IBV_EXP_QPT_DC_INI The semantics is similar to regular QPs. A DCI is an initiator endpoint which connects to DC targets. Matching rules are identical to those of QKEY for UD. However, the key is 64 bits. A DCI is not a responder, it's only an initiator.

The following are the valid state transitions for DCI with required and optional params

The extended atomics capabilities provide support for performing Fetch&Add and masked Compare&Swap atomic operations on multiple fields. The figure below shows how the individual fields within the user-supplied-data field are specified.

the_mask_for_a_multi-field.gif

In the figure above, the total operand size is N bits, with the length of each data field being four bits. The 1's in the mask indicate the termination of a data field. With ConnectX® family of HCA's and Connect-IB®, there is always an implicit 1 in the mask.

Supported Hardware

The extended atomic operations are supported by ConnectX®-2 and subsequent hardware. ConnectX-2/ConnectX®-3 devices employ read-modify-write operations on regions that are sized as multiples of 64 bits with 64 bit alignment. Therefore, when operations are performed on user buffers that are smaller than 64 bits, the unmodified sections of such regions will be written back unmodified when the results are committed to user memory. Connect-IB® and subsequent devices operate on memory regions that are multiples of 32 or 64 bits, with natural alignment.

Verbs Interface Changes

Usage model:

  • Query device to see if

    • Atomic Operations are supported

    • Endieness of atomic response

    • Extended atomics are supported, and the data sizes supported

  • Initialize QP for use with atomic operations, taking device capabilities into account

  • Use the atomic operations

  • Destroy QP after finishing to use it

Query Device Capabilities

The device capabilities flags enumeration is updated to reflect the support for extended atomic operations by adding the flag:

+ IBV_EXP_DEVICE_EXT_ATOMICS ,

and the device attribute comp mask enumeration ibv_exp_device_attr_comp_mask is updated with:

+ IBV_EXP_DEVICE_ATTR_EXT_ATOMIC_ARGS,

The device attributes struct, ibv_exp_device_attr, is modified by adding struct ibv_exp_ext_atomics_params ext_atom

Copy

struct ibv_exp_ext_atomics_params {   uint64_t atomic_arg_sizes; /* bit-mask of supported sizes */   uint32_t max_fa_bit_boundary;   uint32_t log_max_atomic_inline;   };

Atomic fetch&add operations on subsections of the operands are also supported, with max_fa_bit_boundary being the log-base-2 of the largest such subfield, in bytes. Log_max_atomic_inline is the log of the largest amount of atomic data, in bytes, that can be put in the work request and includes the space for all required fields. -For ConnectX and Connect-IB the largest subsection supported is eight bytes.

The returned data is formatted in units that correspond to the host's natural word size. For example, if extended atomics are used for a 16 byte field, and returned in big-endian format, each eight byte portion is arranged in big-endian format, regardless of the size the fields used in an association in a multi-field fetch-and-add operation.

Response Format

The returned data is formatted in units that correspond to the host's natural word size. For example, if extended atomics are used for a 16 byte field, and returned in big-endian format, each eight byte portion is arranged in big-endian format, regardless of the size the fields used in an association in a multi-field fetch-and-add operation.

QP Initialization

QP initialization needs additional information with respect to the sizes of atomic operations that will be supported inline. This is needed to ensure the QP is provisioned with sufficient send resources to support the number of support WQE's.

The QP attribute enumeration comp-mask, ibv_exp_qp_init_attr_comp_mask, is expanded by adding

+ IBV_EXP_QP_INIT_ATTR_ATOMICS_ARG ,

This section describes User-Mode Memory Registration (UMR) which supports the creation of memory keys for non-contiguous memory regions. This includes the concatenation of arbitrary contiguous regions of memory, as well as regions with regular structure.

Three examples of non-contiguous regions of memory that are used to form new contiguous regions of memory are described below. Figure 2 shows an example where portions of three separate contiguous regions of memory are combined to create a single logically contiguous region of memory. The base address of the new memory region is defined by the user when the new memory key is defined.

images/networking/download/attachments/34256583/Memory_region_described_by_Indirect_Memory_key_%28KLM%29.jpg

The figure below shows a non-contiguous memory region with regular. This region is defined by a base address, stride between adjacent elements, the extent of each element, and a repeat count.

non_contiguous_memory_region.png

The figure below shows an example where two non-contiguous memory regions are interleaved, using the repeat structure UMR.

Interleaving_data_from_two_separate_non-contiguous_regions_of_memory.jpg

Interfaces

The usage model for the UMR includes:

  • Ability to with ibv_exp_query_device if UMR is supported.

  • If UMR is supported, checking struct ibv_exp_device_attr for it's characteristics

  • Using ibv_exp_create_mr() to create an uninitialized memory key for future UMR use

  • Using ibv_exp_post_send() to define the new memory key. This can be posted to the same send queue that will use the memory key in future operations.

  • Using the UMR defined as one would use any other memory keys

  • Using ibv_exp_post_send() to invalidate the UMR memory key

  • Releasing the memory key with the ibv_dereg_mr()

Device Capabilities

The query device capabilities is queried to see if the UMR capability is supported, and if so, what are it's characteristics. The routine used is:

int ibv_exp_query_device(struct ibv_context *context, struct ibv_exp_device_attr *attr)

struct ibv_exp_umr_caps umr_caps field describes the UMR capabilities. This structure is defined as:

Copy
Copied!
            

struct ibv_exp_umr_caps {   uint32_t max_klm_list_size;   uint32_t max_send_wqe_inline_klms;   uint32_t max_umr_recursion_depth;   uint32_t max_umr_stride_dimension;   };

The fields added to the struct struct ibv_exp_device_attr to support UMR include:

  • exp_device_cap_flags - UMR support available if the flag IBV_EXP_DEVICE_ATTR_UMR is set.

  • max_mkey_klm_list_size - maximum number of memory keys that may be input to UMR

  • max_send_wqe_inline_klms - the largest number of KLM's that can be provided inline in the work request. When the list is larger than this, a buffer allocated via the struct ibv_mr *ibv_exp_reg_mr(struct ibv_exp_reg_mr_in *in) function, and provided to the driver as part of the memory key creation

  • max_umr_recursion_depth - memory keys created by UMR operations may be input to UMR memory key creation. This specifies the limit on how deep this recursion can be.

  • max_umr_stride_dimension - The maximum number of independent dimensions that may be used with the regular structure UMR operations. The current limit is one.

QP Creation

To configure QP UMR support the routine

ibv_qp * ibv_exp_create_qp(struct ibv_context *context, struct ibv_exp_qp_init_attr *qp_init_attr)

is to be used. When the attribute IBV_EXP_QP_CREATE_UMR is set in the exp_create_flags field of struct ibv_exp_qp_init_attr enables UMR support. The attribute IBV_ IBV_EXP_QP_INIT_ATTR_MAX_INL_KLMS is set in the field comp_mask struct ibv_exp_qp_init_attr, with the field max_inl_send_klms defining this number.

Non-inline memory objects

We will define the enum enum memory_reg_type{ IBV_MEM_REG_MKEY };   The memory registration function is defined as:   struct non_inline_data *ibv_exp_alloc_mkey_list_memory (struct ibv_exp_mkey_list_container_attr *attr) where struct ibv_exp_mkey_list_container_attr { struct ibv_pd *pd; uint32_t mkey_list_type; /* use ibv_exp_mkey_list_type */ uint32_t max_klm_list_size; uint32_t comp_mask; /*use ibv_exp_alloc_mkey_list_comp_mask */ }; This memory is freed with int ibv_exp_dealloc_mkey_list_memory(struct ibv_exp_mkey_list_container *mem)   where struct ibv_exp_mkey_list_container { uint32_t max_klm_list_size; struct ibv_context *context; }; (NOTE - Need to check with Eli Cohen here - just reading the code).

Memory Key Initialization

The memory key is manipulated with the ibv_exp_post_send() routine. The opcodes IBV_EXP_WR_UMR_FILL and IBV_EXP_WR_UMR_INVALIDATE are used to define and invalidate, respectively, the memory key.

The struct ibv_exp_send_wr contains the following fields to support the UMR capabilities:

The Cross-Channel Communications adds support for work requests that are used for synchronizing communication between separate QP's and support for data reductions. This functionality, for example, is sufficient for implementing MPI collective communication with a single post of work requests, with the need to check only of full communication completion, rather than on completion of individual work requests.

Terms relevant to the Cross-Channel Synchronization are defined in the following table:

Term

Description

Cross Channel supported QP

QP that allows send_enable, recv_enable, wait, and reduction tasks.

Managed send QP

Work requests in the corresponding send queues must be explicitly enabled before they can be executed.

Managed receive QP

Work requests in the corresponding receive queues must be explicitly enabled before they can be executed.

Master Queue

Queue that uses send_enable and/or recv_enable work requests to enable tasks in managed QP. A QP can be both master and managed QP.

Wait task (n)

Task the completes when n completion tasks appear in the specified completion queue

Send Enable task (n)

Enables the next n send tasks in the specified send queue to be executable.

Receive Enable task

Enables the next n send tasks in the specified receive queue to be executable.

Reduction operation

Data reduction operation to be executed by the HCA on specified data.

Usage Model

  • Creating completion queues, setting the ignore-overrun bit for the CQ's that only hardware will monitor.

  • Creating and configuring the relevant QP's, setting the flags indicating that Cross-Channel Synchronization work requests are supported, and the appropriate master and managed flags (based on planned QP usage). For example, this may happen when an MPI library creates a new communicator.

  • Posting tasks list for the compound operations.

  • Checking the appropriate queue for compound operation completion (need to request completion notification from the appropriate work request). For example, a user may setup a CQ that receives completion notification for the work-request whose completion indicates the entire collective operation has completed locally.

  • Destroying the QP's and CQ's created for Cross-Channel Synchronization operations, once the application is done using them. For example, an MPI library may destroy these resources after it frees all the communicator using these resources.

The device query function, int ibv_exp_query_device(struct ibv_context *context, struct ibv_exp_device_attr *attr); is used to query for device capabilities. A value of IBV_EXP_DEVICE_CROSS_CHANNEL in exp_device_cap_flags indicates support for Cross-Channel capabilities.   In addition, the struct calc_cap is used to define what reduction capabilities are supported struct ibv_exp_device_attr { … struct ibv_exp_device_calc_cap calc_cap; … };   where, struct ibv_exp_device_calc_cap { uint64_t data_types; uint64_t data_sizes; uint64_t int_ops; uint64_t uint_ops; uint64_t fp_ops; }; Where the operation types are given by: IBV_EXP_CALC_OP_ADD , /* addition */ IBV_EXP_CALC_OP_BAND, /* bit-wise and */ IBV_EXP_CALC_OP_BXOR, /*bit wise xor */ IBV_EXP_CALC_OP_BOR, /* bit-wise or */   and data types supported are described by IBV_EXP_CALC_DATA_SIZE_64_BIT

Completion Queue

Completion queue (CQ) that will be used with Cross Channel Synchronization operations needs to be marked as such as CQ at creation time. This CQ needs to be initialized with

Copy

struct ibv_cq *ibv_exp_create_cq(struct ibv_context *context, int cqe, void *cq_context, struct ibv_comp_channel *channel, int comp_vector, struct ibv_exp_cq_init_attr *attr) where the new parameter is defined as: struct ibv_exp_cq_init_attr{ uint32_t comp_mask; unit32_t flags; } The appropriate flag to set is: IBV_EXP_CQ_CREATE_CROSS_CHANNEL The comp_mask needs to set the bit, IBV_EXP_CQ_INIT_ATTR_FLAGS To avoid the CQ's entering the error state due to lack of CQ processing, the overrun ignore (OI) bit of the Completion Queue Context table must be set. To set these bit the function /** * ibv_exp_modify_cq - Modifies the attributes for the specified CQ. * @cq: The CQ to modify. * @cq_attr: Specifies the CQ attributes to modify. * @cq_attr_mask: A bit-mask used to specify which attributes of the CQ * are being modified. */ static inline int ibv_exp_modify_cq(struct ibv_cq *cq, struct ibv_exp_cq_attr *cq_attr, int cq_attr_mask) The bit IBV_EXP_CQ_CAP_FLAGS in cq_attr_mask needs to be set, as does the bit IBV_EXP_CQ_ATTR_CQ_CAP_FLAGS in cq_attr_mask's comp_mask. Finally, the bit IBV_EXP_CQ_IGNORE_OVERRUN needs to be set in the field cq_cap_flags.

QP Creation

To configure the QP for Cross-Channel use following function is used

The exp_create_flags that are available are

  • IBV_EXP_QP_CREATE_CROSS_CHANNEL - This must be set for any QP to which cross-channel-synchronization work requests will be posted.

  • IBV_EXP_QP_CREATE_MANAGED_SEND - This is set for a managed send QP, e.g. one for which send-enable operations are used to activate the posted send requests.

  • IBV_EXP_QP_CREATE_MANAGED_RECV - This is set for a managed receive QP, e.g. one for which send-enable operations are used to activate the posted receive requests.

int ibv_exp_post_task(struct ibv_context *context, struct ibv_exp_task *task, struct ibv_exp_task **bad_task) is used to post the list of work requests, with   struct ibv_exp_task { enum ibv_exp_task_type task_type; struct { struct ibv_qp *qp; union { struct ibv_exp_send_wr *send_wr; struct ibv_recv_wr *recv_wr; }; } item; struct ibv_exp_task *next; uint32_t comp_mask; /* reserved for future growth (must be 0) */ };   The task type is defined by:   IBV_EXP_TASK_SEND IBV_EXP_TASK_RECV   To support the new work requests, the struct ibv_exp_send_wr is expanded with union { struct { uint64_t remote_addr; uint32_t rkey; } rdma; struct { uint64_t remote_addr; uint64_t compare_add; uint64_t swap; uint32_t rkey; } atomic; struct { struct ibv_cq *cq; int32_t cq_count; } cqe_wait; struct { struct ibv_qp *qp; int32_t wqe_count; } wqe_enable; } task;   The calc operation is also defined in ibv_exp_send_wr by the union:   union { struct { enum ibv_exp_calc_op calc_op; enum ibv_exp_calc_data_type data_type; enum ibv_exp_calc_data_size data_size; } calc; } op;

In addition, in the field exp_send_flags in ibv_exp_send_wr the flag IBV_EXP_SEND_WITH_CALC indicates the presence of a reduction operation, and IBV_EXP_SEND_WAIT_EN_LAST is used to signal the last wait task posted for a given CQ in the current task list.

For ibv_exp_calc_data_type the types

  • IBV_EXP_CALC_DATA_TYPE_INT,

  • IBV_EXP_CALC_DATA_TYPE_UINT,

  • IBV_EXP_CALC_DATA_TYPE_FLOA

are supported.

The supported data size for ibv_exp_data_size is IBV_EXP_CALC_DATA_SIZE_64_BIT.

New send opcodes are defined for the new work requests. These include:

  • IBV_EXP_WR_SEND_ENABLE

  • IBV_EXP_WR_RECV_ENABLE

  • IBV_EXP_WR_CQE_WAIT

ConnectX-3/Connect-IB Data Endianess

The ConnectX-3 and Connect-IB HCA's expect to get the data in network order.
