Replace the old signature handover API with the new one. The new API simplifes PI handover code complexity for ULPs and improve performance. For RW API it will reduce the maximum number of work requests per task and the need of dealing with multiple MRs (and their registrations and invalidations) per task. All the mappings and registration of the data and the protection buffers is done by the LLD using a single WR and a special MR type (IB_MR_TYPE_INTEGRITY) for the PI handover operation. The setup of the tested benchmark (using iSER ULP): - 2 servers with 24 cores (1 initiator and 1 target) - ConnectX-4/ConnectX-5 adapters - 24 target sessions with 1 LUN each - ramdisk backstore - PI active Performance results running fio (24 jobs, 128 iodepth) using write_generate=1 and read_verify=1 (w/w.o patch): bs IOPS(read) IOPS(write) ---- ---------- ---------- 512 1243.3K/1182.3K 1725.1K/1680.2K 4k 571233/528835 743293/748259 32k 72388/71086 71789/93573 Using write_generate=0 and read_verify=0 (w/w.o patch): bs IOPS(read) IOPS(write) ---- ---------- ---------- 512 1572.1K/1427.2K 1823.5K/1724.3K 4k 921992/916194 753772/768267 32k 75052/73960 73180/95484 There is a performance degradation when writing big block sizes. Degradation is caused by the complexity of combining multiple indirections and perform RDMA READ operation from it. This will be fixed in the following patches by reducing the indirections if possible.

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.
