Several drivers need to find the ib_device from a given netdev. rxe needs this at speed in an unsleepable context, so choose to implement the translation using a RCU safe hash table. The hash table can have a many to one mapping. This is intended to support some future case where multiple IB drivers (ie iWarp and RoCE) connect to the same netdevs. driver_ids will need to be different to support this. In the process this makes the struct ib_device and ib_port_data RCU safe by deferring their kfrees. Signed-off-by: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@mellanox.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
