There is no separation between RDMA-CM wire format as it is declared in IBTA and kernel logic which implements needed support. Such situation causes to many mistakes in conversion between big-endian (wire format) and CPU format used by kernel. It also mixes RDMA core code with combination of uXX and beXX variables. The idea that all accesses to IBA definitions will go through special GET/SET macros to ensure that no conversion mistakes are made. The shifting and masking required to read the value is automatically deduced using the field offset description from the tables in the IBA specification. This starts with the CM MADs described in IBTA release 1.3 volume 1. To confirm that the new macros behave the same as the old accessors a self-test is included in this patch. Each macro replacing a straightforward struct field compile-time tests that the new field has the same offsetof() and width as the old field. For the fields with accessor functions a runtime test, the 'all ones' value is placed in a dummy message and read back in several ways to confirm that both approaches give identical results. Later patches in this series delete the self test. This creates a tested table of new field name, old field name(s) and some meta information like BE coding for the functions which will be used in the next patches.

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.
