Etienne AUJAMES 38e2c5ad6f IB/cache: update gid cache on client reregister event 
[ Upstream commit ddd6c8c873 ]

Some HCAs (e.g: ConnectX4) do not trigger a IB_EVENT_GID_CHANGE on
subnet prefix update from SM (PortInfo).

Since the commit d58c23c925 ("IB/core: Only update PKEY and GID caches
on respective events"), the GID cache is updated exclusively on
IB_EVENT_GID_CHANGE. If this event is not emitted, the subnet prefix in the
IPoIB interface’s hardware address remains set to its default value
(0xfe80000000000000).

Then rdma_bind_addr() failed because it relies on hardware address to
find the port GID (subnet_prefix + port GUID).

This patch fixes this issue by updating the GID cache on
IB_EVENT_CLIENT_REREGISTER event (emitted on PortInfo::ClientReregister=1).

Fixes: d58c23c925 ("IB/core: Only update PKEY and GID caches on respective events")

README 

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 reStructuredText 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.
