From: Matan Barak <matanb@mellanox.com>

In order to implement RoCE IP based addressing for UD QPs, without introducing
uverbs changes, we need a way to resolve the L2 Ethernet addresses from user-space.

This is done with netlink through libnl, and in libibverbs such that multiple
vendor provider libraries can use the code.

The Ethernet L2 params are passed to the provider driver using an extension
verb create_ah_ex call. This resolution is done only for providers
that support this extension verb, otherwise, there's not real reason to do that.

The steps for resolution:

1. get sgid

2. from sgid, get the interface

3. query route from interface to the destination

4. query the neigh table, if the MAC for the destination is already known, done.

5. if not, loop until timeout:
    a. send a UDP packet to that IP targeted to the "discard" port
    b. listen to events from the neigh table
    c. query neigh table in order to know if the neigh has shown up between
       query until we started monitoring it

6. query vlan id from the interface

This solution depends on libnl-3 with backports to libnl-1.

It feels like a regression to force this overhead. Many HCAs have no
possibility to support anything but IB, or Ethernet and don't need
this.

This whole arrangement seems strange. create_ah_ex should be a full
fledged user callable function, not a buried driver entry point.
It is also very unusual for verbs to have all this generic code in
a driver wrapper.

I suspect the answer here is to have the driver call into helper
functions from verbs to do this addressing
work. 'get_ethernet_l2_from_ah' or something.

If you do that then we don't even need create_ah_ex and query_port_ex
- those function seem to only be required to support this wrapper
technique.

So please rethink how this flows.. Maybe wrapping is not the best
choice??

We could use a libibverbs API call in order to resolve the IP based GID 
into a MAC, but I think it could cause multiple vendors to have some 
code duplication. We hope that in the future, more products will use 
RoCE with IP based GIDs. All those providers will have to supply similar 
code that checks if the link layer is Ethernet and IP based GID is used, 
they'll have to use the libibverbs utility function.

A possible future create_ah_ex *libibverbs* could be a full fledged verb 
that uses the new provider's create_ah_ex. Currently, it's hidden inside 
the good old create_ah call, but we shouldn't limit ourselves to keep it 
that way.

Anyway, I have no objection to use a utility function instead of this 
method, but I do think that the current code has some advantages.

If that is the only objection, I would prefer to see this techique. A
little provider code duplication is a lessor evil than introducing and
vetting new verbs APIs.

I think the patch will be very small and there will be very little to
talk about from an API perspective.

AFAIK all the other RoCEE implementations don't do InfiniBand link
layer, so their providers don't even need the test.
