This new WR will be used to perform PI (protection information) handover using the new API. Using the new API, the user will post a single WR that will internally perform all the needed actions to complete PI operation. This new WR will use a memory region that was allocated as IB_MR_TYPE_INTEGRITY and was mapped using ib_map_mr_sg_pi to perform the registration. In the old API, in order to perform a signature handover operation, each ULP should perform the following: 1. Map and register the data buffers. 2. Map and register the protection buffers. 3. Post a special reg WR to configure the signature handover operation layout. 4. Invalidate the signature memory key. 5. Invalidate protection buffers memory key. 6. Invalidate data buffers memory key. In the new API, the mapping of both data and protection buffers is performed using a single call to ib_map_mr_sg_pi function. Also the registration of the buffers and the configuration of the signature operation layout is done by a single new work request called IB_WR_REG_MR_INTEGRITY. This patch implements this operation for mlx5 devices that are capable to offload data integrity generation/validation while performing the actual buffer transfer. This patch will not remove the old signature API that is used by the iSER initiator and target drivers. This will be done in the future. In the internal implementation, for each IB_WR_REG_MR_INTEGRITY work request, we are using a single UMR operation to register both data and protection buffers using KLM's. Afterwards, another UMR operation will describe the strided block format. These will be followed by 2 SET_PSV operations to set the memory/wire domains initial signature parameters passed by the user. In the end of the whole transaction, only the signature memory key (the one that exposed for the RDMA operation) will be invalidated.
